摘要:

The diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum preoperatively is still difficult, but nuclear imaging, enteroclysis, and angiography used appropriately can certainly increase the pre-operative diagnosis.

摘要:

Although obstructive jaundice in pancreatic inflammatory disease is being recognized with increased frequency, duodenal obstruction is thought to be unusual. The occurrence of both duodenal and biliary obstruction suggests pancreatic cancer, and has seldom been described in pancreatitis. We report three patients with combined duodenal and biliary obstruction occurring as a complication of chronic pancreatitis. Distinction from carcinoma by barium study or laboratory results alone was not possible; instead, it depended on studies of the common bile duct, exploratory laparotomy in two patients, and follow-up in all three.

摘要:

We used a specially designed real-time ultrasound probe (puncture transducer) to puncture solitary liver abscesses for diagnosis and drainage therapeutic purposes. The technique in four patients so treated is described along with the ultrasonograms and roentgenograms of the opacified abscesses.

摘要:

The Chiba percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (CPTC) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are new techniques useful for accurately diagnosing cholestasis. Both, however, present certain advantages and disadvantages in different clinical settings. In our prospective study we compared and evaluated the two techniques in 21 patients with postcholecystectomy jaundice, analyzing success rate, complications, time spent, and costs. We found CPTC was preferable to ERCP for visualizing the bile ducts and for relative safety. Moreover, CPTC is not only more rapid, but also requires less expertise and costs less.

摘要:

We have seen a patient with a squamous carcinoma of the esophagus along with hepatocellular carcinoma. Though the simultaneous occurrence of these tumors is rare, we propose that their development may be more than a chance occurrence. Since many chemical carcinogens which promote esophageal cancers in experimental animals also promote hepatic malignancies, it is possible that dietary nitrosamines in man, causally implicated in esophageal carcinoma, may also sometimes induce hepatic carcinoma in the same patient.

摘要:

A young man with severe nephrotic syndrome and symptoms suggestive of peptic ulcer disease treated with steroids developed symptoms and signs of peritonitis and pneumoperitoneum. Laparotomy and ascitic fluid culture revealed B. fragilis peritonitis without any perforation, suggesting a diagnosis of spontaneous primary peritonitis.

摘要:

We report a patient in whom hemochromatosis with high transferrin saturation developed during long-term cimetidine administration. Prior reports have noted impaired iron absorption to be associated with short-term cimetidine use. The effect of chronic cimetidine administration on iron absorption and metabolism has not been studied. We believe this to be the first, and so far the only report of increased iron absorption with long-term cimetidine use.
