There is increasing evidence that primary biliary cirrhosis associated with an alteration of the immune system. Although cause remains unknown, it has been suggested system patients involved in pathogenesis their disease. We have investigated T-cell function and found defective phytohemagglutinin-induced mitogenesis. Likewise, blastogenic response to CD3 monoclonal antibody was also depressed, although DNA synthesis induced by stimulation phorbol esters...
Splenic rupture (SR) after colonoscopy is a very rare but potentially serious complication. Delayed diagnosis common, and may increase morbidity mortality associated. There no clear relation between SR difficult diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, it has been suggested that loop formation excessive torquing might be risk factors.
