A seven-year-old boy with cystic fibrosis (CS) who presented with abdominal pain is reported. Ultrasonographic and computed tomographic studies of the upper abdomen revealed unusual liver findings. An ultrasound scan showed a liver that was exceedingly heterogeneous and a mixed echo pattern with dominant hyperechogenicity. Computed tomography showed large, multiple hypodense cyst-like lesions in the liver. Using the ultrasound scan as a guide, a needle biopsy was performed. The pathological findings were in accord with the findings obtained from ultrasonography and computed tomography, and were consistent with pathological findings seen in CS cases.
报告了一名患有囊性纤维化（CS）的七岁男孩，他出现腹痛症状。上腹部的超声和计算机断层扫描研究显示肝脏有异常表现。超声扫描显示肝脏极度不均匀，呈混合回声模式，以高回声为主。计算机断层扫描显示肝脏内有多个大的低密度囊肿样病变。在超声扫描引导下进行了针吸活检。病理结果与超声和计算机断层扫描结果一致，与CS病例中所见的病理结果相符。
