    Author: Fiori GP, Tafuri A, Iberti M.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1983 May 12; 74(20):1187-90. PubMed ID: 6678399.
    Abstract:
    Three patients with severe liver and renal failure admitted to the Infectious Diseases Department of the Alessandria for suspected leptospirosis in the second half of 1979 are presented. In one case, the agent responsible was Leptospira icterohaemorrhagiae AB Wjnberg strain, in another Gram-negative sepsis, and in the third acute pancreatitis associated with serious Escherichia coli infection. An account is given of the peritoneal dialysis technique that led to successful resolution of the serious liver and renal failure.
