[Portal cavernoma and intestinal lymphangiectasis].

A child is described with a portal cavernoma and marked growth retardation who was found to have intestinal lymphangiectasia. It is proposed that the lymphangiectasia may be secondary to portal hypertension. This suggestion is supported by the improvement in lymphopenia after a splenorenal shunt cavernome.

[Fiber-optic endoscopy demonstration, incidence and clinical significance of intestinal lymphangiectasis].

The intestinal lymphangiectasia can be proved enteroscopically, laparoscopically as well as histologically after preceding aimed or unaimed biopsy. In 2,250 fibre-endoscopic examinations of the upper gastrointestinal tract we found 54 times endoscopically and 48 times also histologically a lymphangiectasia. Of these 54 patients 9 had an advanced carcinoma of the stomach. The evoking causes of the lymphangiectasia are discussed. When an intestinal lymphagniectasia is diagnosed it should always be sought for an evoking cause and last not least should be thought of a primary or secondary neoformation in the region of the epigastrium.
