| Aim: The aim of this study was to determine whether elastographic evaluation of uterine myometrium can predict preterm delivery. Methods: This study was carried out at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Gaziosmanpasa University Hospital, Tokat, Turkey. A total of 148 pregnant women matching the inclusion criteria between January 2014 and January 2015 were enrolled. Elastographic measurements were obtained between 18 and 22 weeks of gestation, on real-time images by a radiologist. Patients were followed up until delivery. A receiver–operator curve was used to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of the elastographic outcomes. All analyses were completed by SPSS 20.0. Results: A negative correlation existed between the ratio of myometrium strain to fat tissue strain and delivery week (r = -0.300, P = 0.000214). In addition, a positive correlation was found between the ratio of myometrium strain to fat tissue strain and presence of preterm delivery (r = 0.223, P = 0.006). The multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the ratio of myometrium strain to fat tissue strain (β = 0.233, P = 0.006)was the significant predictor for preterm delivery. Conclusion: The ratio of myometrium strain to fat tissue strain showed a trend towards significance to predict preterm delivery. |
