[Intussusception: diagnosis and treatment with saline enema under ultrasound].

Intussusception is the most common abdominal emergency of early childhood. In the past 100 years intussusception has been treated by both surgical and nonsurgical methods. The last few years have brought improved nonsurgical methods of treatment. We present the results of ultrasonic diagnosis, and of treatment by saline enema under ultrasound, in the first 7 infants in our series.

Chilaiditi's syndrome in an infant: bowel loops mimicking mass lesions on sonography.

We report the case of a 6-month-old boy with Chilaiditi's syndrome presenting with tender hepatomegaly and abdominal pain. On sonography the interposed bowel loops mimicked a posterior hepatic or retroperitoneal mass. Although the majority of these cases may be radiological curiosities, patients can present with a variety of abdominal signs and symptoms. The correct diagnosis will be suggested on chest or erect abdominal films.
