[Complications of gastroesophageal reflux: considerations on a non-selected case series].

According to the experience of the authors on a non-selected case report, pharmacologic progresses in the therapy of various aspects of peptic disease permit an ease management also of gastro-esophageal reflux disease. Moreover, endoscopy is the very modern pivot of conservative treatment of more severe complications as strictures are, through repetitive and progressive instrumental dilatations. The surgical treatment of the most severe and intractable eveniences must be chosen for only a low percentage number of patients, after a careful functional analysis of the single case. Very important is the endoscopic and histologic control of Barrett esophagus and severe dysplasia.

[Neutropenic colitis. A case report].

The authors take the opportunity, on the basis of a clinical case examined, to revise an uncommon disease: neutropenic colitis. In the presence of an acute abdominal pain and tenderness localized at right lower quadrant, in a patient affected by hematologic neoplasm or by a solid tumor, at the end of a chemotherapeutic treatment with absolute residual neutropenia, we would be strongly oriented to neutropenic colitis. The treatment according to the primary disease and to the patient's poor conditions, will be where possible conservative, reserving the surgical approach only for those cases of absolute necessity.
