Radiological signs of pneumoperitoneum in an extremely low birthweight infant

A pseudo-double wall sign is produced when two loops of distended bowel are adjacent to each other and their adjoining wall are outlined by intraluminal gas in both loops. 2 Falciform ligament sign (Silver sign)-Falciform ligament appears as a linear density running parallel to the right border of t...

description A pseudo-double wall sign is produced when two loops of distended bowel are adjacent to each other and their adjoining wall are outlined by intraluminal gas in both loops. 2 Falciform ligament sign (Silver sign)-Falciform ligament appears as a linear density running parallel to the right border of the spine when free air lies on either side of it. 3 Learning points Radiological imaging is a vital tool and subtle imaging signs that can alert a physician towards the presence of a pneumoperitoneum must be specifically looked for in radiographs.
