  • Title: [Significance of biliary lithiasic pathology in the etiopathogenesis of carcinoma of the large intestine].
    Author: Tocchi A, Ciani R, Cerroni M, Puma F, Brozzetti S, Antoni R, Maccioni AF.
    Journal: Chir Ital; 1983 Dec; 35(6):898-910. PubMed ID: 6680891.
    Abstract:
    With the purpose to study the eventual existence of a correlation between biliary lithiasis and colon-rectum carcinoma, the authors effected a retrospective study of the clinical material concerning 1283 patients hospitalized in the 1st Surgery Institute for large intestine carcinoma. The relative anamnestic data were compared with those of a control population. The results emerging from the research, checked in their statistic significance, seem to support the existence of such correlation. The hypothesis of a possible common etiopathogenesis of both diseases is proposed.
