[Ultrasonographic findings in hepatoblastoma].

At de National Institute of Pediatrics in Mexico City, the ultrasonographic findings of hepatoblastomas were analyzed in order to establish the echographic pattern of this malignant liver tumor. The ultrasonic images of patient's livers dating back six years were retrospectively reviewed. The hyperrecognisance of the hepatoblastoma as a solid, poorly limited mass, with or without the presence of calcifications, with the displacement of the portal vein and frequently found in the right lobe, were considered as the most relevant echographic characteristics of the hepatoblastoma. The echographic characteristics found of the hepatoblastoma can aid in the sonographic diagnosis of the disease. The leukemic liver infiltrations, the primary liver lymphoma and the metastasis, due to their hyperrecognisance, can be confused with the diagnosis of hepatoblastoma.

[Epiploon cysts. Report of 2 cases].

This report includes two cases of omental cysts, with detailed clinical and radiological findings. The main clinical finding in these patients was a massive cystic growth, producing an increase in abdominal volume undistinguishable from ascites. In both cases the preoperative diagnosis was done using abdominal ultrasonography. Although omental cysts are infrequent, it should be thought of as a possibility in the differential diagnosis in children with intraabdominal fluid. Omental cysts; intraabdominal cystic masses; abdominal ultrasound.

[Rectosigmoidal angiodysplasia].

A case of a three year old child with an angiodysplasia (arterial venous malformation) localized in the sigmoidal rectum is reported. The malformation caused chronic recurrent rectal hemorrhaging. Colonoscopy was the procedure used to diagnose the problem which was later corroborated by arteriography. The affected area was removed.
