Figure 6

Abdominal ultrasound on day 7 to evaluate the neuroenteric fistula. (a) Gray scale sagittal image demonstrates a complex presacral mass with heterogeneous echogenicity and multiple echogenic foci representing air. There is a hypoechoic cystic structure within it which is in continuity with the sacral canal (arrow). (b) Subsequent transverse gray scale US image shows echogenic foci representing air in the small inferior hypoechoic cyst with the presacral mass (within calipers) suggesting continuous fistulous connection (arrow).
