An acute abdomen — with a twist
The British Journal of Radiology, 2008A 59-year-old man presented acutely with generalized abdominal pain and tenderness. He was cardiovascularly stable but had an elevated white cell count of 27610 l and a C-reactive protein of 250 mg l. His biochemistry showed a degree of metabolic acidosis and dehydration, and he had been previously fit and well.

The present study aims at establishing the exact role and limitation of ultrasound in pediatric acute abdomen.Fifty children less than 14 years of age presenting with acute abdomen were evaluated by US and other imaging modalities. The mean age of presentation was 3 1/2 years. Maximum number of cases were seen in less than two years of age.
