[The stenosis of large intestine as complication of pancreatitis: statistical contribution (author's transl)].

After a careful examination of literature, the AA. report a case of left flexure stenosis of colon after pancreatitis and with abscess-fistula after cholecystectomy. The diagnosis supported by laboratory, radiological and endoscopic examination, has suggested to effect a derivative colostomy on transverse and the total parenteral feeding. The spontaneous resolution of lesion, radiologically documented after 5 months from the first operation, permitted, in a second time, the closing of stoma and the following removal of patient in satisfactory conditions.

[Scintigraphic diagnosis of pancreatic diseases: random analysis of 100 patients].

After a brief statement on the procedure of selection of the patients, the article describes how the cases were studied, since some difficulties arose through the lack of homogeneity of the subjects. The cases are then commented and an effort is made to evidence the outstanding data which can be deduced, and in particular a study is made of the percentage of overall unreliability of scintillographic examination, the "false positives" and the "false negatives", which are rather low. The Authors conclude with the consideration that scintiscanning of the pancreas now constitutes a valid method of investigation of pancreatic pathology.
