[Severe ulcerated forms of acute colitis with unknown etiology. Recovery after total colectomy. Study of 2 cases (author's transl)].

The authors report on two cases of severe ulcerated forms of acute colitis, successfully treated by total colectomy. Laboratory and X-ray investigations, as well as pathological examination of the removed section did not provide a definite etiopathologic classification. They voice the hypothesis of an infectious involvement and discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic problems evoked by these ulcerated forms of acute colitis. These are distinct from Crohn's disease and from ulcerative colitis. Their etiology remains unknown.

[Warren's operation for portal hypertension. Evaluation of results by early angiography in 23 cases (author's transl)].

After distal splenorenal anastomosis, as described by Warren, in 23 patients, early assessment of results (after 2 weeks and 2 months) by endoscopic examination and celiomesenteric angiography was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the procedure and its effects on hepatic portal perfusion. The distal splenorenal shunt remained open in almost all cases (22 out of 23), the varices diminished, and postoperative hemorrhage rarely occurred (3/23 cases). The portogastric disconnection was incomplete in 8 patients, preservation of hepatoportal flow not being constant, as 6 cases with partial and 2 cases with complete portal thrombosis were observed.
