title: [Importance of preoperative monitoring in a case of hypochloric and hypokalemic dehydration subsequent to upper intestinal occlusion, caused by biliary ileus].

Emphasis is placed on the importance of the preoperative rehydration and restoration of the electrolyte balance in patients with upper intestinal occlusion which reduces the risk involved in subsequent surgery.
