Abdominal, scrotal, and thoracic calcifications owing to healed meconium peritonitis.

Meconium peritonitis is a form of chemical peritonitis resulting from in utero perforation of the gastrointestinal tract, with subsequent leakage of sterile meconium into the peritoneal cavity and the potential spaces connected with it. Involvement of the tunica vaginalis may be the sole presenting clinical manifestation of the gut perforation resolving spontaneously. In such instances, radiologically detectable calcifications in the abdomen, scrotum, and thorax are essential diagnostic points. In this study, a 4-month-old baby with abdominal, scrotal, and thoracic calcifications owing to healed meconium peritonitis is presented.
