Gastrointestinal Tract Disease and Zinc Absorption: Cecal Coccidiosis
Abstract IT HAS generally been assumed that diseases of the intestinal tract interfere with nutrient absorption. Quantitative data have been lacking on the amount of absorptive impairment or the periods during the disease cycle when it occurred. Stafseth (1931) observed that rickets appeared more frequently or was more severe in birds suffering from

Cecal Carcinoma: Initially Diagnosed as Crohn's Disease on Small Bowel Follow-Through [PDF]
Lesions in the terminal ileum are often difficult to visualize on routine small bowel follow-through (SBFT) and may require further investigation to rule out associated abnormalities in the ileocecal valve or cecum. This may be done by peroral pneumocolon at the same sitting as the SBFT, but may require bowel preparation.

Limitations of Phenothiazine in the Control of Cecal Worms and Blackhead Disease of Turkeys
Abstract THE relationship of the cecal worm, Heterakis gallinae, to enterohepatitis, or so-called blackhead disease of turkeys and chickens, was demonstrated by Graybill and Smith (1920) and by Tyzzer, Fabyan, and Foot (1921). By carefully controlled experiments, these investigators succeeded in infecting chickens and turkeys with blackhead by ...

A Case of Cecal Voluvulus with Parkinson's Disease.
症例は79歳の男性で,パーキンソン病があり,抗パーキンソン病薬を内服していた.日常生活は介助により起立が可能だが,ほとんど臥床の状態であった.主訴は心窩部痛,腹部膨満で近医よりイレウスの診断で紹介となった.腹部に巨大なガス像を認め, S状結腸軸捻転症を疑い緊急内視鏡検査を行ったが,上行結腸の肝彎曲部まで正常であった.腸閉塞の診断で経過観察していたが,改善が見られず手術を行ったところ,盲腸は反時計方向に180度回転し,さらに頭側に180度屈曲して盲腸が横行結腸と癒着して著明に拡張していたため,盲腸軸捻転症と診断した.自験例はその誘因としてパーキンソン病と長期臥床による大腸のatonyが深く関与していると考えられた.
