Abstract
Computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound were used to evaluate 2 patients with Klippel-Trenaunay (K-T) syndrome. Bowel and bladder hemangiomas were demonstrated in these cases. Computed tomography demonstrated multiple low attenuation areas in the liver and spleen in 1 case. Computed tomography is capable of noninvasively demonstrating bowel and bladder wall hemangiomas in K-T syndrome. Both CT and ultrasound may reveal silent lesions in the upper abdominal viscera, such as liver and spleen.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
