Diagnostic value analysis of ultrasound for gastrointestinal perforation

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of ultrasound for gastrointestinal perforation. Methods Ninetysix cases gastrointestinal perforation patients with complete data,preoperative underwent ultrasonography and X-ray examination.Results Seventy patients ultrasound showed intraperitoneal gas appears,84 cases ultrasound showed small to medium ascites volume. Among 96 cases, 84 cases X-ray showed free gas below the diaphragm,accounted 87.5%,90 cases ultrasound showed abdominal mass(gastric perforation 20 cases, duodenal perforation 62 cases,perforation of the appendix 8 cases). Conclusion Only fully understand the sonographic features of gastrointestinal perforation,combined with abdominal X-ray examination and clinical manifestations in order to provide effective diagnosis for gastrointestinal perforation disease.Ultrasonography for the lack of X-ray examination,improve diagnosis rate of gastrointestinal perforation for clinical treatment programs, particularly provide a reliable basis for guiding for the choice of surgical solutions.
