Spontaneous resolution of cholelithiasis in infants

MS Keller, BM Markle, PA Laffey, HS Chawla, N Jacir and JL Frank

Follow-up sonographic studies of five infants whose initial sonograms had displayed evidence for the diagnosis of cholelithiasis demonstrated spontaneous resolution of the gallbladder defects. These defects may have been caused by tumefactive sludge with acoustic shadowing. Whether sludge or gallstones are being imaged, in the absence of other clinical or imaging evidence of biliary tract disease, conservative (i.e., nonsurgical) management and serial sonograms are recommended.
