  • Title: [Prognostic features of upper gastro-intestinal hemorrhages in adult over 65 (author's transl)].
    Author: Jung F, Anselm Y, Aboukassem A, Bertini O, Sibilly A.
    Journal: Sem Hop; 1982 Jan 14; 58(2):99-103. PubMed ID: 6277003.
    Abstract:
    Some prognostic features out of 57 cases at upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, in people more than 65 years old, are reported. The age has no significance but after 70, gastroduodenal ulcers represent the more frequent etiology, with a very particular severity in cases of chronic and acute gastric ulceration. The mortality is still high, mainly due to decompensation of pre-existent renal, cardio-vascular or pulmonary taints, frequent in aged people.
