title: [Chronic process with Non-A and Non-B hepatitis disseminated from the intestine (appended 500 cases followed up for two years)].
abstract: At present Non-A and Non-B hepatitis disseminated from the intestine in the world is believed to have a better prognosis and has no chronicity. From 1980-1986, this hepatitis has occurred in the south of Xinjiang. It was sporadic (1980-1985) and there was an outbreak (1986). Our study indicated that the results from 500 cases followed up for two years were different from the literature reported. 1. Patients with hepatomegaly were 11.2% at 7th months, 12.8% at 19th months and 45.3% at 28th months. At the same time there were 3 cases of splenomegaly and spider in each of the 19th month and 28th month. 2. Liver function test showed that gamma-GTP, BSP and gamma-globulins rose in different degrees among the 3-7 month cases. Reexamined at 19th months, 3.6% cases of both ZTT and SGPT were high. General proteins of 8% patients dropped. In 42% of the patients the globulins rose and the album in dropped. 3. Biopsy of the liver after 28th months demonstrated that it was in agreement with the pathologic changes found in chronic lobule hepatitis of CPH under the light microscope and electron microscope.
