Abstract
We report the multiphase CT findings of intra-abdominal desmoplastic small round-cell tumour (DSRCT) in two children. CT showed a huge heterogeneous intraperitoneal mass with or without direct invasion into solid organs such as liver or kidney, extensive intraperitoneal seeding, intratumoural calcification, ascites, and lymphadenopathy. DSRCT should be included in the differential diagnosis of malignant intraperitoneal neoplasm in children. Multiphase CT may be helpful in delineating tumour extent, vascularity and direct invasion into adjacent organs.Entities:
