BACKGROUND: The "contrast blush" (CB) computed tomographic (CT) scan finding has often been used clinically as an indicator for therapeutic splenic intervention (SI) (splenectomy, splenorrhaphy, or angiographic embolization). We sought to examine the prognostic significance of this finding. METHODS: The records and CT scans of 324 trauma patients from two Level I trauma centers who had blunt splenic injury and a CT scan of the abdomen within 24 hours of admission were reviewed and screened for CB. RESULTS: CB was identified in 11% of patients, and its incidence was significantly related to the grade of injury: grade I/II, 3.2%; grade III, 11.8%; and grade IV/V, 26.3% (p

contrast blushとは,実質臓器内外で,臓器実質よりdensityの高い造影剤が貯留している状態で,1:extravasation(造影剤の血管外漏出),2:extravasationを伴う仮性動脈瘤(pseudoaneurysm),3:extravasationを伴わないpseudoaneurysmと,4:動静脈瘻(arteriovenous fistula)の4つの病態が含まれる.1と2は即刻,塞栓術目的の血管造影の適応であり,3と4は夜中であれば明朝まで待てる病態だから,extravasationの有無の診断は極めて重要である.しかし,single phaseの造影CTではextravasationとpseudoaneurysmの鑑別は困難なこともまれではなく,時間が許せばdouble phase造影CT(early phaseは造影剤注入開始から30秒,delayed phaseは造影剤注入開始から2〜3分)を撮ることが望ましい.
