    Notes: Abstract Intestinal lymphangiectasia caused severe diarrhea and generalized edema in a 40-year-old man. The diagnosis was established by clinical, laboratory, and duodenal biopsy findings. The abnormalities detected on computed tomography (CT) and scintigraphy using99mTc human serum albumin are herein described and pertinent literature is briefly reviewed.

    Notes: Abstract In experimental animals, sphincterotomyfacilitates passage of solids from the gallbladder andinhibits gallstone formation apparently by improvementin gallbladder emptying. In humans, however, gallbladder emptying has not been studied followingendoscopic sphincterotomy (ES) in patients withgallstones. We therefore prospectively studied restingand cerulinstimulated gallbladder volumes by real timeultrasonography in 15 patients of choledocholithiasis withgallbladder in situ (eight with and seven withoutgallbladder calculi) before and after (after bile ductclearance) ES. ES significantly lowered restinggallbladder volume (21.2 ± 10.6 vs 11.1 ±5.0; P 〈 0.0001) and cerulin-stimulated residualgallbladder volume (10.8 ± 5.6 vs 4.4 ±2.1; P 〈 0.0001). ES also significantly increased thegallbladder ejection fraction (47.3 ± 12.1% vs 58.8 ± 11.1%; P 〈 0.0001). Therate constant for gallbladder emptying after cerulininfusion also increased significantly after ES(–0.022/min vs –0.031/ min; P 〈 0.0001).Significant improvement in gallbladder motility was observed in both groups ofpatients with and without gallbladder calculi. ESsignificantly improves gallbladder motility inhumans.

    Notes: Summary Obstructive jaundice occurring in a patient with portal hypertension is a rare association. In this report, a 24-year-old patient is described who had biliary obstruction due to a portal cavernoma compressing the common bile duct and in whom surgical decompression of the portal system resulted in relief of the biliary obstruction, thus proving that the dilated portal vein collaterals were compressing the biliary tract and producing jaundice. Although biliary obstruction due to a portal cavernoma has been described earlier, this is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case described in which improvement followed shunt surgery.
