Abstract:
Primary biliary peritonitis was diagnosed in a 14-year-old girl by means of gallbladder scintigraphy. The girl was treated conservatively and subsequent investigations revealed a normal hepatobiliary system. The initial scan showed free entry of the isotope into the general peritoneal cavity and its absence from the bowel. After 7 days, the scan and oral and intravenous cholangiography showed no abnormality.
