Objective To investigate the sonographic characteristics and diagnostic value of color Doppler sonography for patients with renal schwannoma. Methods Ten patients with pathologically confirmed renal schwannoma dimensional ultrasonography treated between January 2008 and May 2014 were included in this study. We analyzed and summarized their color flow distribution characteristics. Results The ultrasound of the 10 patients showed substantial hypoechoic mass with clear boundary and complete capsule; color Doppler flow imaging displayed mass within the probe and a small amount of dotted blood flow information or no obvious blood flow information. Four patients were suspected to have schwannoma before surgery by ultrasound diagnosis, while the remaining 6 cases only showed benign lesions without clear diagnosis. All the patients underwent surgery subsequently under laparoscope, and resection of the tumor was performed with the integrity of normal kidney tissue retained. Postoperative recovery was good, and follow-up did not detect any recurrence. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasound has a certain specificity on the diagnosis of renal schwannoma. Combined with other examination methods, it can not only give the clinicians a good suggestion, but avoid laparotomy.
