Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Calcifications of the umbilical vein and intrahepatic branches of the portal vein developed in a newborn who had an umbilical vein catheter inserted for 11 days postnatally. The calcified intrahepatic portal veins can still be demonstrated sonographically at the age of three years, but these calcifications were no longer detectable radiologically.
