Gall bladder sludge in neonate:






























These ultrasound images of a neonatal abdomen show a large amount of dense sludge in the gall bladder. Such sludge formation in neonates is often seen following parenteral nutrition and is usually self resolving.

Visit the page: http://www.ultrasound-images.com/pediatric.htm for ultrasound images of pediatric and neonatal diseases. At present I have added a few cases of neonatal intracranial/ germinal matrix hemorrhage and its complications, notably porencephaly. There is also a nice case of inguinal hernia containing ovary.
