Twelve cases of meconium peritonitis were retrospectively reviewed in this study. Five of these patients had cystic fibrosis. Of the patients with cystic fibrosis, intraperitoneal calcifications were present in three (60%) and two (40%) had none. All seven patients (100%) who had meconium peritonitis without cystic fibrosis had abdominal calcifications. These results indicate that the presence of intraperitoneal calcifications does not exclude the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and that the absence of calcification favors cystic fibrosis. However, a review of the literature indicates the absence of calcification is merely of clue and not definitive as to the etiology of the meconium peritonitis.
本研究对12例胎粪性腹膜炎病例进行了回顾性分析。其中5例患者患有囊性纤维化。在患有囊性纤维化的患者中，3例（60%）存在腹腔内钙化，2例（40%）无钙化。所有7例（100%）无囊性纤维化的胎粪性腹膜炎患者均有腹部钙化。这些结果表明，腹腔内钙化的存在并不能排除囊性纤维化的诊断，而钙化的缺失则支持囊性纤维化的诊断。然而，文献回顾表明，钙化的缺失仅仅是一个线索，对于胎粪性腹膜炎的病因并不具有决定性意义。
