Peristalsis in duplication cyst: A new diagnostic sonographic finding. Spottswood, S. E. Pediatric Radiology, 24(5):344--345, September, 1994.
Paper doi abstract bibtex Ultrasonography is useful in the evaluation of enteric duplication cysts in infants. Typically, there is an anechoic fluid-filled lumen with a double-layered surrounding wall. This case report documents an additional sonographic finding which has not been recorded: peristaltic contractions of the cyst wall. This provides a realtime observation which is specific in the pre-operative diagnosis of neonatal cystic abdominal masses.
