[Remarks on a case of Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome].
A case of Fitz-Hugh Curtis syndrome caused by chlamydia is described in which the perihepatic and abdominal swelling also extended to the right perirenal tissue. The case was diagnosed on the basis of the clinical picture, the behaviour of anti-chlamydia serum antibodies, abdominal echography and laparoscopy. The infection was quickly cured by the administration of tetracycline.
