Clinical evaluation of isolated nonvisualized fetal gallbladder.
OBJECTIVE Isolated nonvisualized fetal gallbladder (INVFGB) is relatively rare. In most cases, the gallbladder will eventually be detected. In some cases however, INVFGB may be associated with serious abnormalities, cystic fibrosis (CF), aneuploidy, and agenesis of the gall bladder. We describe a clinical evaluation of prenatally diagnosed INVFGB. METHODS Cases of nonvisualized gallbladder we...

متن کاملUltrasonographic Triangular Cord Sign and Gallbladder Abnormality in Diagnosis of Biliary Atresia
Introduction: Early diagnosis of biliary atresia is very important for better outcome of treatment. Ultrasonography is one of the diagnostic tools for early differentiation of biliary atresia from other causes of neonatal cholestasis. It has been reported that triangular cord sign (TACS) in sonography is a reliable sign for diagnosis of biliary atresia. The aim of this study was to re-assess ...
متن کاملA Survey on the Presence of Calcifying Nanoparticles in Renal Stones, Gallbladder Stones and Atherosclerosis Plaque
Background & Aims: Calcifying nanoparticles are different forms of calcium and phosphate in sediments. Recent evidence suggests that calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs) are probably selfreplicating. Several diseases are linked to nano-bacteria including kidney stones, gallbladder stone, cardiovascular plaques, oral–dental plaque, many cancers, and autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to a...
متن کاملImaging findings of gallbladder duplication due to two cases: case report and review of literature.
Duplication of the gallbladder, a rare congenital anomaly, is important in clinical practice as it may cause some clinical, surgical, and diagnostic problems. This anomaly is also important for surgeons due to the increased risk of complications especially after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We report ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography findings...
