Two cases of lithopedion were encountered. In one case, computerized tomographic (CT) findings are illustrated. There are no classical clinical signs or symptoms that aid in the diagnosis of this rare condition. A calcified fetus and investing membranes are readily identified on a plain film of the abdomen, and these constitute an absolute sign of lithopedion. Excretory urography, barium enema examination, ultrasound, and CT represent other diagnostic modalities in the evaluation of this condition, but they are rarely indicated or valuable.
遇到了两例石胎病例。其中一例展示了计算机断层扫描（CT）的检查结果。对于这种罕见病症的诊断，没有典型的临床体征或症状可供辅助。在腹部平片上很容易识别出钙化的胎儿及其包膜，而这些构成了石胎的绝对征象。排泄性尿路造影、钡灌肠检查、超声和CT是评估这种病症的其他诊断方法，但很少需要用到或具有重要价值。
