Mesadenitis in children with acute abdominal pain syndrome: clinical and echographic parallels

The paper pools the experience of ultrasound assessment of acute mesadenitis in children with acute abdominal pain syndrome. It reviews the literature on its etiology, pathology, and diagnosis and treatment principles. B-mode and Doppler echograms made by general practice ultrasound diagnosticians are shown. The technique is demonstrated to be effective and of informative value in the early stages of diagnosis in the patient contingent in question.
