The limy bile syndrome in newborn infants. Apropos of a case
1989
: This is a report of a limy bile syndrome in a little girl aged 21 months, whose gall-bladder is spontaneously visible on the abdominal X Ray, with a biliary stone inside. The limy bile syndrome is very rare in infancy and childhood and is found more exceptionally in new-born. Only 12 cases were found out in medical literature among children aged from 3 to 15. The pathogenesis of the disease is unknown, but its diagnosis is very easy. The treatment is surgical and consists in cholecystectomy with per-operative cholangiography although drainage of the biliary mould can happen.
