Abstract
A 10-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital because of gross hematuria and abdominal pain. She had hepatosplenomegaly and a miliary pattern on chest X-ray and CT-scan. Histopathologic studies of bone marrow and liver revealed findings in favor of type B Niemann-Pick disease (NPD). This is a fatal and nonneuropathic form of NPD that is usually detected as an incidental finding during routine physical examination.
