Gallbladder (GB) abnormalities are rarely reported in children, but involvement of the GB has been demonstrated in various inflammatory disorders. Thirty-nine children hospitalized with hepatitis A virus infection were evaluated by ultrasound. Pseudosurgical gallbladder wall of 10 mm or more with striation was found in 10. Pathological echographic findings were found in the pancreas of three patients, one with frank pancreatitis. Ascitic fluid was noted in eight. Pediatricians and pediatric surgeons alike should be familiar with this gallbladder and pancreatic involvement, which might avoid unnecessary procedures or surgery.
