  • Title: CT monitoring of therapy for meconium ileus.
    Author: Moody AR, Haddock JA, Given-Wilson R, Adam EJ.
    Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 1990; 14(6):1010-2. PubMed ID: 2229547.
    Abstract:
    Meconium ileus equivalent is a common complication of cystic fibrosis in the postneonatal period. Because of the added risks of surgery in these patients, conservative management is preferred. We describe here a method of monitoring the conservative treatment of this condition using CT and suggest that its application will reduce the need for potentially dangerous surgical intervention.
