Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the image and question

The question asks for the intermittent bladder abnormality identified on a sagittal ultrasound image of the urinary bladder. The arrow points to a bright, triangular area within the bladder. The abnormality is described as intermittent.

Step 2: Consider the options
  • Catheter balloon: Catheter balloons appear as a dark, round or oval shape and would not be intermittent.
  • Ureterocele: A ureterocele appears as a cystic, thin-walled structure at the distal end of the ureter, projecting into the bladder lumen. While it can be visualized on ultrasound, it's less likely to appear as intermittent.
  • Diverticulum: A diverticulum is an outpouching of the bladder wall. It's not typically intermittent and would appear as a darker, more rounded structure.
  • Ureteral jet: A ureteral jet is the transient, dynamic expulsion of urine from the ureter into the bladder. This aligns with the description of "intermittent" and the image shows the bright, triangular appearance characteristic of a ureteral jet.

Final Answer: The correct answer is ureteral jet.
