Background: To retrospectively investigate the grey-scale, Doppler, contrast-enhanced and microvascular ultrasound of five patients with primary testicular lymphoma of our institute through review literature analysis.
Methods: From January to November 2020, five patients with primary testicular lymphoma confirmed by histology were preoperatively investigated with a standardized sonographic protocol including contrast-enhanced and microvascular ultrasound.
Results: Conventional ultrasound showed localized hypoechogenicity represented with solitary lesions(2 of 5), multiple lesions (2 of 5), or entire testicular involvement (1 of 5). And increased blood flow appeared by color Doppler ultrasound with straight vascular sign(4 of 5). In contrast-enhanced ultrasound images confirmed this pattern(4 of 5) and presented incresaed enhancement with enlarged range. On microvascular ultrasound imagings, all lesions were presented with straight and parallel course of intralesional vessels(5 of 5).
Conclusions: Here, we identified the increased vascularity with enlarged range on contrast-enhanced ultrasound along with a linear nonbranching pattern by vascular sign on microvascular ultrasonographic of testicular lymphoma.
