Radiology of acalculous gall-bladder disease - a new sign.

Radiography of excised gall-bladders, immersed in water, has shown that chronically infected gall-bladders frequently contain fat. This fat can be seen in vivo, and the frequency of the finding was assessed by reviewing 43 patients with acalculous gall-bladder disease. Other radiological signs in the cholecystograms were looked for retrospectively, and their incidence assessed. In 20 cases out of 40, no radiological abnormality was found.

Ultrasonic diagnosis of choledochal cyst in pregnancy.

Two patients are reported with obstructive jaundice in pregnancy. In one of these ultrasonic scanning confirmed a diagnosis of choledochal cyst, and in the other made this diagnosis. Ultrasonic scanning is suggested as the preliminary radiological examination for obstructive jaundice in pregnancy. Any patient with a clinical diagnosis of choledochal cysts should have an ultrasonic scan.

Fetal cervical hypertension in breech presentation.

A review has been made of Down's syndrome patients who were radiographed as fetuses and the majority were found to be in abnormal postures, often "star gazing". Further review of "star gazing" fetuses showed that two of eight were normal and the rest were abnormal. Hypotonia was a frequent association.
