Evaluation and Further Testing
..............................................................................................................
n
Sonography: Diffuse and circumscribed salivary gland lesions can be clearly
visualized with a high-resolution transducer. Most lesions (benign tumors) occur in the parotid gland.
x
Isoechoic diffuse swelling: usually viral parotitis
x
Hypoechoic swelling: usually bacterial sialadenitis
x
Circumscribed hypoechoic tumors: Ultrasound is of limited value for benign– malignant differentiation
n
Further testing :
x
Circumscribed hypoechoic masses: fine-needle aspiration cytology and histology
x
Adenoid cystic carcinoma and carcinomas in adenomas: These malignancies often present clinically with rapid growth and facial nerve palsy – Critical: FNAB, surgical diagnosis – Infiltrative growth is clearly demonstrated by CT. – MRI cannot differentiate between benign and malignant lesions (but is
useful in the diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma).

20 Postoperative Ultrasound

20.1 Normal Postoperative Changes

n
The prior history (anamnesis) and follow-up history (catamnesis) can account for almost all postoperative findings.
n
Therefore, always ask about previous operations, especially involving the abdo­men (it is easy to overlook scars in the darkened ultrasound room).
n
The absence of organs should be noted and documented (e.g., previous cholecys­tectomy, Figs. implant materials (Fig.
a
643 and 644). It is also easy to miss an aortic prosthesis and other
645).

Examples of Postoperative Anatomical Changes
..............................................................................................................
n
Scars and scar-tissue bands (Fig. 646): Surgical procedures on the liver, kidney,
and other organs leave scars. Scar tissue following ablative tumor surgery is par­ticularly easy to recognize in a large parenchymatous organ like the liver. A scar­tissue band that is present for years or decades may cause significant local ana-

tomic changes. An example is the displacement of the upper abdominal visceral “packet” toward the left side that typically occurs after a partial gastrectomy or other extensive upper abdominal surgery (nonvisualization of the displaced gall­bladder or of the pancreas because of adhesions with overlying bowel).
n
Thoracic surgical procedures : Thoracic operations may also produce changes in
upper abdominal anatomy. Examples are upward displacement of the liver due to right-sided phrenic nerve palsy and the impairment of respiratory organ mobi­lity (e.g., by basal pleural adhesions). Generally in these cases the liver and pan­creas cannot be visualized by ultrasound.

Scanning tips :
x
Define the liver and gallbladder in a high intercostal scan on the right side.
x
Define the pancreas after filling the stomach with fluid.

n
Pneumobilia (Fig. 648): Air in the bile ducts is consistently present after the sur-
gical creation of a biliary–enteric anastomosis and is frequently present after endoscopic papillotomy (complete sphincterotomy). It is considered a normal finding in these settings.

20.2 Postoperative Complications

Abnormal Accumulations of Fluid (Fig. 651)
..............................................................................................................
n
The most effective role of ultrasound in the follow-up of abdominal operations is for the detection or exclusion of abnormal accumulations of fluid.
n
Peripheral accumulations of fluid around parenchymatous organs, mesenteric col­lections, and fluid in the cul-de-sac are considered normal findings. Larger accu­mulations associated with clinical manifestations arouse suspicions of ascites, intraperitoneal hemorrhage, pus, or leaks (bile, gastrointestinal, pancreas).
!
Caution: Avoid mistaking a harmless hematoma or seroma for an abscess.

Obstructed Tubular Systems
..............................................................................................................
n
The sonographic features of postoperative obstructions are the same as those of other types. When a detailed history is taken (and with meticulous scanning tech­nique), the cause of the obstruction can usually be identified. Some cases may require investigation by ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy.

n
Biliary tract obstruction: presenting clinically with jaundice. Despite unfavorable
postoperative conditions, the course of the obstructed bile duct can usually be traced with ultrasound. Scanning tip: intercosta l scans are helpful.
x
Possible causes:
– Postoperative pancreatitis – Iatrogenic bile duct ligation – Residual duct stone
x
Differentiation: can be differentiated from obstructive drug-induced jaundice or toxic-septic jaundice by noting the presence or absence of obstructed intra­hepatic bile ducts.
x
Signs suggestive of postoperative obstructive cholestasis :
– Double-walled, anechoic intrahepatic duct systems (bile ducts, portal venous
branches) – Extrahepatic bile duct dilated to i 7mm – Detection of the obstructing lesion
n
Ureteral obstruction (Fig. 652): most commonly results from urinary stas is (often
unilateral). May occur after tumor operations in the lower abdomen, or may be secondary to retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. In most cases the cause cannot be established by ultrasound and the patient should be referred for CT scans. Therapeutic options include stenting and drainage.

Bowel obstruction (partial or complete): Ultrasound is the simplest and best
modality for the early postoperative diagnosis of bowel obstruction. Generally the cause is determined intraoperatively.
Abscess Formation (Circumscribed, Diffuse, Loculated, Fig. 653)
..............................................................................................................
n
The most common problem in postoperative patients is to determine the presence or absence of a postoperative abscess. It is easy to make a sonographic diagnosis in cases that present with local swelling, redness, pain, and a circumscribed liquid mass. A more difficult problem is to detect or exclude an intra-abdominal abscess.
n
A diffuse or uncircumscribed abscess is difficult to distinguish from ascites or leak­age. Many of these cases can be evaluated by ultrasound-guided needle aspiration or drainage (see Fig.
73, p. 54).

These conditions are difficult to assess with ultrasound, but CDS is rewarding in some cases. The best modality is conventional angiography.

These include “forgotten” foreign objects, devices that have been implanted for functional maintenance (e.g., drains), and endogenous bodies that are lost during an operation and have to be located with ultrasound.
