OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of submucosal linear enhancement on dynamic computed tomography (CT) for patients with internal hemorrhoids.
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed patients who were admitted to our institution due to acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding and underwent both dynamic CT and colonoscopy. The presence of submucosal linear enhancement of the intestinal wall from the lower rectum to the anal canal was evaluated using arterial-phase CT images. Based on these images, patients were then classified into 2 groups by 2 blinded radiologists, as follows: group A (absence of submucosal linear enhancement) and group B (presence of submucosal linear enhancement). The relationship between the groups and the risk of bleeding in internal hemorrhoids was evaluated using the size and range of internal hemorrhoids measured during colonoscopy as reference standards.
RESULTS: A total of 94 patients were reviewed; of these, 62 patients without submucosal linear enhancement were classified into group A, and 32 patients with submucosal linear enhancement were classified into group B. Group B showed a significantly greater range ( P = 0.017) and size ( P = 0.002) of internal hemorrhoids. The Cohen κ coefficient value for the group classifications between the 2 radiologists was 0.66.
CONCLUSIONS: Submucosal linear enhancement on arterial-phase CT images could be a predictive finding suggesting the presence of internal hemorrhoids with a high risk of bleeding.
