Core Tip |
We previously reported that multiple hypoechoic lesions in submandibular glands (SGs) were a specific marker of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). In this study, we aimed to clarify the significance of hypoechoic lesions in SGs by ultrasonography in AIP diagnosis using the international consensus diagnostic criteria (ICDC). Ultrasonographic evidence of hypoechoic lesions in SGs improved the definitive diagnosis of sialadenitis and type 1 AIP by the ICDC criteria in 11 (30%) and 2 (5.4%) cases, respectively. SG ultrasonography to detect multiple hypoechoic lesions might be useful for type 1 AIP diagnosis by improving diagnostic accuracy together with the ICDC sialadenitis criteria. |
