Abstract

Objective To investigate the value of MR in the diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy(csp).Methods The MRI data of 23 patients with cesarean scar pregnancy were retrospectively analyzed and compared with postoperative pathological features from Jan 2008 to Sep 2011.Results Among 23 patients with cesarean scar pregnancy,MR definitely diagnosed 20 cases and misdiagnosed 3 cases(1 case as cervix pregnancy,1 case as trophoblastic disease,1 case as incomplete abortion),the diagnostic accuracy of MRI was 86.96%.Typical MR features with CSP included two types: Gestational sac and mixed masses.Conclusion MRI is useful in diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy,which can reflect pathology of cesarean scar pregnancy.
