title: Hepatic bruit in Hodgkin's disease.
abstract: Two cases of stage IV B Hodgkin's disease of the mixed cellularity type are described who had loud hepatic bruits. This physical sign is previously described only in cases of hepatocellular carcinoma and acute alcoholic hepatitis. The aetiology of the bruit in one of the cases is probably arteriolar compression by tumour tissue.
