Sixty children of proven meningitis and with clinical suspicion of its complications and open fontanelle were evaluated by real time ultrasound. Twenty of these patients had normal ultrasound findings while 40 showed varied sonographic features suggesting complications of meningitis, e.g., ventricular dilatation, pus in the ventricles, increased periventricular echogenicity, brain abscess, subdural effusion, porencephalic cysts, etc. Ultrasound is very useful in the diagnosis and serial follow up of these complications.
对60名确诊为脑膜炎且临床怀疑有并发症及囟门未闭的儿童进行了实时超声检查。其中20例患者超声检查结果正常，而40例显示出各种超声特征，提示脑膜炎并发症，如脑室扩张、脑室内积脓、脑室周围回声增强、脑脓肿、硬膜下积液、脑穿通畸形囊肿等。超声在这些并发症的诊断及系列随访中非常有用。
