“…One of the complications of this condition is pneumoperitoneum, due to rupture of the cysts, as described by Somerville (1951), Schorr et al (1951), and Jones (1948). It may be the presenting clinical feature.…”

“…This led many observers to suspect malnutrition as being the main causative factor in this disease. Schorr et al (1951) drew attention to the fact that patients with this condition were usually undernourished, owing mainly to the long history of associated peptic ulceration and subsequent pyloric stenosis. If the pyloric stenosis is relieved the cysts tend to regress immediately, and have been observed to do so by Berglund (1939) both radiographically and by laparotomy.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
