Abstract:Objective To investigate the MRI of renal clear cell carcinoma and papillary carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 85 patients with renal cell carcinoma admitted to Baoding First Central Hospital and China Armed Police General Hospital from May 2013 to May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among the patients, 50 patients with renal clear cell carcinoma were included in the renal clear cell carcinoma group, and 35 patients with renal papillary carcinoma were included in the renal papillary carcinoma group. MRI scanning and dynamic enhancement imaging were compared between the two groups, and the lesion appearing and the tumor-cortical enhancement index were compared between the two groups. Results In renal clear cell carcinoma group, T1WI scanning showed low signal and mixed signal. The T1WI scanning of the renal papillary carcinoma group presented mixed signal, and the difference in the rate of low signal was statistically significant between the two groups (P < 0.05). The T2WI scanning of the renal clear cell carcinoma group presented high signal and mixed signal, while the T2WI scanning of the renal papillary carcinoma group presented low signal and mixed signal, the difference in the proportion of high signal and mixed signal on T2WI between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). MRI showed necrosis, neovascularization, and extrarenal invasion proportion in the renal clear cell carcinoma group, which was significantly higher than that in the papillary carcinoma group, while the rate of hemorrhage and cystic degeneration was significantly lower than that of the renal papillary carcinoma group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). MRI in the renal clear cell carcinoma group showed progressive weakening from cortical phase to delayed phase (P < 0.01). MRI in the renal papillary carcinoma group showed progressive mild enhancement from cortical phase to parenchymal phase, and decreased signal from parenchymal phase to delayed phase (P < 0.01). The enhancement indices of cortical, parenchymal and delayed phases were significantly higher than those of papillary carcinoma group, the differences were highly statistically significant (P < 0.01). Conclusion MRI of renal clear cell carcinoma and papillary carcinoma have certain characteristics, and the enhancement degree of each kidney cancer subtype can significantly differentiate renal clear cell carcinoma and papillary carcinoma.
