Abstract

Intravenous leiomyomatosis(IVL) is rare and unique histologic and biological properties. Ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are helpful in the preoperative diagnosis. Ultrasound contrast agents seem to substantially increase ultrasound diagnostic accuracy. However, there are very limited reports concerning IVL diagnosed by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography. In this study, IVL feature was described by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography.

Key words： Intravenous leiomyomatosis; Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography; Gynecological tumour
