Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate the lesion detection rate and completeness rate of the preoperative ultrasonic diagnosis in patients with external abdominal hernia, and to analyze the quality of preoperative ultrasonic reports, thereby exploring potential improvement measures.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data, ultrasonic examination results, and surgical records from patients with external abdominal hernias who underwent surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January to December 2023.With intraoperative diagnosis as the gold standard, the lesion detection rate were evaluated, and the quality of the reports was evaluated based on whether they indicated the type of inguinal hernia, the width of the neck of the hernia sac and its mobility.

Results

A total of 112 patients with surgically treated external abdominal hernias were included in the study, comprising 98 cases of inguinal hernia and 14 cases of abdominal wall hernia.The preoperative ultrasonic lesion detection rate of inguinal hernia was 95.9%, and the completeness rate of the ultrasound report of inguinal hernia was 14.3%.The preoperative ultrasonic lesion detection rate of ventral hernia was 100.0%, and the completeness rate of the ultrasound report of ventral hernia was 50.0%.

Conclusion

Ultrasound demonstrates a high detection rate for external abdominal hernias, effectively providing information regarding location, size, neck width of the hernia sac, mobility characteristics and relationships with surrounding tissues.Consequently, it is recommended that more comprehensive information be included in ultrasound reports to assist clinicians in making decisions and treatment.

Key words: External abdominal hernia, Ultrasonic diagnosis, Quality analysis
