Abstract

Neonatal cholelithiasis is rare and its natural course is unknown. Treatment is controversial. Although the traditional therapeutic approach is surgery, asymptomatic cases of cholelithiasis were suggested to undergo spontaneous resolution highly. There are limited information about medical treatment with ursedeoxycholic acid: In this paper, we report a case of idiopathic asymptomatic cholelithiasis with congenital cyanotic heart disease who was diagnosed incidentally during neonatal period, and the results of ursedeoxycholic acid treatment and 2 years follow-up.

Özet

Kolelitiyazis yenidoğanlarda nadirdir ve doğal seyri tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Tedavisi tartışmalıdır. Geleneksel tedavi yaklaşımı cerrahi olmasına rağmen, asemptomatik safra taşı olgularında spontan rezolüsyon oranının yüksek olduğu bildirilmektedir. Ursodeoksikolik asitle medikal tedavi hakkında sınırlı veriler bulunmaktadır. Bu yazıda yenidoğan döneminde tesadüfen tanı alan konjenital siyanotik kalp hastalığıyla birlikte olan idiyopatik asemptomatik kolelitiyazisli bir olgu sunulmuş, ursodeoksikolik asit tedavisinin sonuçları ve iki yıllık izlemi bildirilmiştir.
