Biliary atresia (BA) is a progressive destructive cholangiopathy of unknown etiology that presents in early infancy. It has a worldwide frequency of 1:8,000–1:15,000 and is common in Asia than in the west. Based on the level at which the lumen of the extrahepatic duct is obliterated, BA is classified into three types. Type III is the commonest (∼85%) type and has the most proximal level of obstruction in the porta hepatis, while type II in which the atresia is at the level of the common hepatic duct, is the least common (∼2.5%) and has been rarely reported. Here, we report the imaging features of an infant with type IIB biliary atresia.

“…A patent cystic duct with extrahepatic ducts draining into the duodenum has an accuracy of 82% and sensitivity of 90% for exclusion of the diagnosis of BA. 25,26 Percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) is a temporizing treatment for an obstructed biliary system in the nonsurgical patient by establishing drainage of bile. In children, the indications for PC include acalculous cholecystitis, neonatal cholestasis, and inspissated bile syndrome (IBS).…”

Image-guided interventions are increasingly being used in the management of many pediatric disease processes since they provide safe and effective minimally invasive treatment options. This review article attempts to provide an overview of the commonly performed interventions in the gastrointestinal tract in children. These include esophageal balloon dilatation, establishment and maintenance of gastroenteral access, and hepatobiliary interventions (liver biopsy, percutaneous cholangiogram, and biliary drainage).
