[Ultrasonographic diagnosis of intestinal fistulae associated with Crohn disease].

In two patients with Crohn's disease, abdominal mass and fever, abdominal ultrasound disclosed enteroenteric fistula in one, and intestinal fistula associated to subcutaneous abscess in the second. We emphasize the role of ultrasound in the diagnosis of active Crohn's disease, especially as a complementary method for the detection of intraabdominal complications.

[Clinical and epidemiological features of hepatic cirrhosis. Analysis of 200 patients].

We have evaluated the clinical and epidemiological features of hepatic cirrhosis in a retrospective study of 200 patients admitted to our Area Hospital from 1984 to 1987. 77% of patients were 40-69 years old and 74% were males, with a M/F ratio of 2.84. 56% were caused by high alcohol intake, 25% were cryptogenic and 13% post-hepatitis. 29.2% were diagnosed in a compensated stage of the disease. 52.2% presented with ascites, and 30.5% with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. We found superimposed hepatocellular carcinoma in 4.5% of patients, all of them males, with a mean age of 63.5 years. 18% died during their hospital admission, 50% from hepatic coma, 19.4% from hypovolemic shock and 16.6% from hepatorenal syndrome. Survival from the time of diagnosis in the patients who died was shorter than one year in 41.5%.
