Systematic lymphatic abnormality-related osseous lesions: a study based on CT lymphangiography.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few studies have focused on the morphology of systematic lymphatic abnormality-related osseous lesions. In this study, we classified systematic lymphatic abnormality-related osseous lesions into four types based on their morphology and density. We also discussed the imaging features of computed tomography lymphangiography (CTL) in this disease.

Methods

In this retrospective cohort study, the clinical and imaging data of 39 patients with systematic lymphatic abnormality-related osseous lesions were collected. All patients underwent computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest and abdomen after direct lymphangiography, and two experienced radiologists evaluated the CTL features of intraosseous and extraosseous lymphatic vessel abnormalities.
