Dorsal Wall Ultrasound
Technique:
Real-time ultrasound examination of the dorsal wall was performed using a
high-frequency linear transducer (7–12 MHz).
Systematic evaluation of the posterior thoraco-lumbar region was carried out
in longitudinal and transverse planes.
Skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle layers, and underlying soft tissue structures
were assessed.
Clinical indication:
Back swelling / Pain / Suspected soft tissue lesion / Trauma / Infection / Screening.
Muscle Layers: Visualized muscle planes appear normal in bulk and echotexture. No focal mass, tear, or intramuscular collection is identified. Fascial Planes: Fascial layers are intact with no evidence of fluid tracking or disruption.
Skin & Subcutaneous Tissue: Location: Right lateral dorsal wall, within the subcutaneous plane. (Typical location: subcutaneous tissue of trunk, extremities, or dorsal body wall.) Soft Tissue: No focal soft tissue mass, cystic lesion, or abscess is seen. Vascularity: No abnormal increased vascularity is noted on Doppler evaluation.
Impression: Features suggestive of subcutaneous fibroma in the right lateral dorsal wall.
Recommendation: Clinical correlation is advised. Follow-up ultrasound may be considered if there is increase in size or symptoms. Histopathological confirmation can be considered if clinically indicated.
Kindly Note:
• Sonographic findings are suggestive of a benign subcutaneous soft tissue fibroma /
fibrous lesion involving the dorsal wall region.
• Ultrasound evaluation is limited in characterization of deep soft tissue extension
and adjacent osseous involvement.
• Clinical correlation is advised. Histopathological examination,
MRI, or follow-up imaging may be considered if the lesion enlarges,
becomes painful, fixed, or clinically suspicious.
