초록

목적: 회전근 개 질환 환자에서 상완 이두건의 병소에 대한 수술 전 초음파 검사의 정확성을 알아보기 위하여 본 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 1월부터 2007년 3월까지 회전근 개 질환으로 수술적 치료를 받은 환자 중 수술 전 초음파 검사를 시행 한 67명의 환자를 대상으로 후향적 조사를 하였다. 환자들의 연령은 평균 58세였으며, 남자 41예, 여자 26예였다. 상완 이두건의 관절경 및 초음파 소견은 '정상', '탈구', '아탈구', '건증', '부분 또는 완전 파열'등으로 기술하였으며, 관절경과 초음파 소견 간의 일치 여부를 조사하였다. 결과: 초음파 검사 67예 중 37예가 '정상'이었으며, 30예가 '비정상'이었다. '정상' 37예 중 5예는 관절경 검사상 '부분 파열'이 있었으며, '비정상' 30예 중 8예는 관절경 검사상 '정상'이었다. 초음파 검사상 3예의 '탈구' 및 4예의 '완전 파열'은 관절경 검사 결과와 일치하였다. 초음파 검사에서 '건증'이 기술된 20예는 관절경 검사에서 '부분 파열' 15예, '정상' 5예로 관찰되었다. 결론: 상완 이두건의 병소에 대한 초음파 검사는 상완 이두건의 탈구 또는 완전 파열 시에는 진단이 일치하였으나, 부분 파열에 대해서는 정확한 진단이 어려웠다.

Purpose: We wanted to assess the accuracy of ultrasound for detecting abnormality of the long head of the biceps tendon in patients with rotator cuff disorders. Materials and Methods: Between January 2006 and March 2007, we reviewed the arthroscopic findings of biceps tendons in 67 patients with rotator cuff disorder and who underwent ultrasonography pre-operatively. The patients' average age was 58 years and there were 41 males and 26 females. The statuses of the biceps tendons were described as 'normal', 'dislocation', 'subluxation', 'partial or complete tears', and 'tendinopathy'. We investigated the correspondence between the arthroscopic and ultrasonographic findings. Results: On ultrasonography, the biceps tendons were 'normal' in 37 patients and 'abnormal' in 30 patients. On arthroscopy, 5 biceps tendons turned out to have partial tears, which were 'normal' on ultrasonography. On the other hand, 8 biceps tendons were 'normal' which were 'abnormal' on ultrasonography. Three dislocations and 4 complete tears of biceps tendons were identified on arthroscopy, and all of them were detected by ultrasonography. Of the 20 cases of 'tendinopathy' seen on ultrasonography, 15 patients had partial tears and the remaining 5 patients were normal on arthroscopy. Conclusion: Ultrasonography is accurate for detecting some biceps pathologies, such as dislocation or complete tear, but it is not accurate for the detection of partial tear.
