Abstract
|
|
|
|
Torsion of the lipomatous appendage of the falciform ligament is extremely rare, and most patients have previously been treated surgically. We reported a case of torsion of the lipomatous appendage of the falciform ligament in a child, diagnosed by ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) and treated conservatively. Real-time US and CT can aid an accurate diagnosis, and follow-up US can aid in making appropriate decisions for conservative treatment.
