TAILIEUCHUNG - Ebook Diagnostic imaging pediatrics: Part 2

(BQ) Part 2 book "Diagnostic imaging pediatrics" presents the following contents: Inflammatory bowel disease, congenital abnormalities, multicystic renal disease, uterine and ovarian abnormalities, testicular abnormalities, miscellaneous renal conditions, focal bone lesions,. | Diagnostic Imaging Pediatrics Left Coronal CECT shows multiple hypodense lesions in the liver E3 spleen Ỉr2í and kidneys J. A small amount of ascites is also present. Right Axial CECT of the abdomen shows a nodal mass in the region of the porta hepatis. PTLD is often caused by Epstein-Barr virus. Risk factors for developing PTLD include childhood increased immunosuppression and patients seronegative for Epstein-Barr virus at the time of transplantation. Left Transverse ultrasound of the abdomen in an 11 year old with prior history of liver transplant shows a target appearance of colon typical of ileocolic intussusception. Right Posterior prone image from an air enema in the same patient shows a soft tissue mass filling the ascending colon. An intussusception in a patient with a history of transplant should be considered to be caused by PTLD until proven otherwise.
