Abstract
|
|
|
Mecomium peritonitis is a chemical or foreign body reaction of the peritoneum resulted from the prenatal small bowel perforation associated with or without obstructive lesions and malformation. Extravasation of sterile meconium into the
peritoneal
cavity causes an intense peritoneal reaction resulting in characteristic calcification and ascites which might be observed ty the prenatal ultrasonographic examination. Prenatal ultrasonographic detection of the meconium peritonitis allows the
preparation for the proper management which should reduce the mortality and morbidity of the neonates.
Recently, a case of prenatal meconium peritonitis diagnosed by ultrasonography at 38 gestational age weeks was experienced at our department. We represent this case with a brief review of literature concerned.
