Ultrasonic demonstration of porto-caval anastomosis in portal hypertension in children.

Seventy-one children with portal hypertension and a portocaval anastomosis were studied by ultrasound. The patency of the shunt may be inferred when it directly visualised. There are four indirect signs of patency: (1) decrease of the thickness of the lesser omentum; (2) decrease of the gastro-oesophageal collaterals; (3) decrease of the portal vein size; and (4) increase of the diameter of the inferior vena cava, as compared to pre-operative ultrasound.

We report three patients with appendicitis in whom the diagnosis was difficult to establish. Ultrasonography helped in the management of these patients. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the detection of appendicolith by ultrasonography.
