[New prospects offered by echography in the diagnosis of carcinoma of the gallbladder].

Experience in diagnosing several cases of primary carcinoma of the cholecyst echographically in reported. The most important ultrasonic characteristics in relation to staging of the lesion are reviewed. It is seen that echographic features always correlate with surgical findings, confirming the diagnostic accuracy of the method which permits morphofunctional as well as structural evaluation. At this time echography seems to be the most rational tool for efficient diagnosis, a step forward in ensuring timely surgery and the improvement of long term prospects for the condition.

[Jaundice as a symptom of traumatic diaphragmatic hernia].

The onset of jaundice as an atypical, early clinical symptom of traumatic hernia of the right diaphragm is described. Jaundice has never been reported in the literature as a symptom of herniated diaphragm. In this case, it was caused by a twisted main bile duct after herniation of the right lobe of the liver through a wide thoraco-diaphragmatic opening. The need for a careful investigation of all thoracoabdominal traumas to identify any concommitant diaphragmatic pathology is emphasised. This is especially true of injuries to the right diaphragm which are often easily identified by simple examination techniques.

[Traumatic duodenal lesions].

The authors refer their experience about five cases of traumatic duodenal lesions. They confirm the casual relationship between delayed diagnosis, often due to inaccurate clinical-radiological evaluation, and prognosis. They emphasize the opportunity to perform a simple suture and decompression by nasogastric tube, to selected cases.
