Barium enema in pediatric intussusception; a review of 108 cases.

A material of 108 patients with 125 intussusceptions was evaluated retrospectively. Barium enema is recommended as an excellent diagnostic tool. Reduction should be tried in all cases except those with signs of peritonitis, because the enema causes fewer complications and leads to a considerably decreased hospital stay.

Comparison of endoscopic retrograde and intravenous cholangiography in diagnosis of biliary calculi.

The results of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (E.R.C.) and intravenous cholangiography (I.V.C.) were compared in patients undergoing surgery for biliary calculi. E.R.C. gave a significantly higher rate of correct diagnosis of gallbladder calculi (p = 0.026) and common bileduct calculi (p = 0.002) than I.V.C. Biliary stones may thus frequently be present in patients with a normal I.V.C. and E.R.C. may reduce the rate of diagnostic errors in patients with symptoms of biliary disease.

Arthrography of the knee joint with amipaque.

In a double-blind investigation, 30 knee arthrographies were performed by injection of either Amipaque 290 mg I/ml or Urografin 60% (292 mg I/ml). Both contrast media are well tolerated, and give excellent initial contrast quality, which deteriorates rapidly. This occurs more slowly with Amipaque, which has lower osmolality and causes less joint effusion.

Multiple mesenteric cysts diagnosed by ultrasound. A case report.

The diagnostic value of ultrasound in mesenteric cysts in infancy and childhood is demonstrated by a case report of a 4 year old girl with multiple cysts in the transverse mesocolon and with no other symptoms or signs than an enlargement of the abdomen. Neither clinical nor radiological examination could give the diagnosis, whereas ultrasound examination promptly revealed large, thin-walled, partly locular, cystic masses.
