Title: [Sigmoid stenosis as a complication of severe acute pancreatitis]. Author: Argüello L, Pascual S, Nos P, Pina R, Carbonell F, Berenguer J. Journal: Rev Esp Enferm Dig; 1995 Jun; 87(6):469-71.

The incidence of these complications is rare and much more so the stenosis localized in the sigmoid colon.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
