Meconium peritonitis may also be diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound. It can present as fetal meconium ascites, giant pseudocysts, small pseudocysts, and calcifications. Associated polyhydramnios is a common finding (Eckoldt et al. 2003 Kamata et al. 2000). [Pg.22]

Pediatric Medicine. From the early twentieth century through 1975, an initial pediatric physical exam was conducted shortly after birth. With the introduction of ultrasound in the 1970 s, the first newborn exam was condncted via a prenatal ultrasound examination. Most women receiving prenatal care in developed nations, snch as the United States, undergo one or more ultrasound examinations during their pregnancy. For many women, this may be the most thorongh exam she will ever have. A pediatrician or... [Pg.1437]

Indications for DIG (Mandell et al. 1997a,b) include female infants (<1 year of age) with a urinary tract infection (UTI) and a normal ultrasound or with a prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of hydronephrosis who postnatally are either normal or who have mild dilatation, and boys (<3 years of age) who require follow-up cystography. [Pg.37]

Despite the overall small recurrence risk of renal agenesis careful evaluation of the family history and exclusion of syndromes is essential. Due to the early manifestation during embryogenesis the detection by prenatal ultrasound is reliable. [Pg.72]

Prenatal ultrasound often fails to provide an early diagnosis, and the large, sometimes septated, fluid-filled pelviabdominal mass is often mistaken for the urinary bladder. After delivery the diagnosis of cloacal malformation is made when, in addition to an absent anus, only one perineal orifice is found between the labia (Fig. 7.23). These patients need urgent referral to the pediatric radiology department for early definition of the abnormal anatomy and detection of associated malformations or potential life-threatening complications. [Pg.160]

The urinary bladder can be visualized on prenatal ultrasound scans after 14-weeks of gestation (Ben-Chaim et al. 1996). Therefore, in the absence of the urinary bladder on prenatal ultrasound scans or if any of the other above-mentioned symptoms are present, the diagnosis of bladder exstrophy should be raised. [Pg.176]

Bladder exstrophy is an underdiagnosed condition on prenatal ultrasound scans. Absence of the urinary bladder is th e hallmark of bladder exstrophy on those scans. [Pg.176]

Bladder exstrophy is diagnosed prenatally in only 13% of cases according to Ben-Chaim et al. (1996). In a retrospective study on 43 prenatal ultrasound... [Pg.176]

Unfortunately, the term prune belly syndrome is inconsistently used in the literature. The incomplete form of the syndrome has been occasionally described as pseudo-prune belly syndrome (Bellah et al. 1996). However, the term pseudo-prune belly syndrome in patients with massive, prune belly-like dilatation of the urinary tract but normal abdominal wall examination and incomplete cryptorchidism or normal testes is confusing and should be avoided. Furthermore, diagnosis of severe urinary tract anomalies with oligohydramnios by prenatal ultrasound often results in termination of pregnancies (Hoshino et al. 1998). In these cases the typical pathology of prune belly syndrome has not always been demonstrated sufficiently. [Pg.327]
