[Association of liver cirrhosis, hepatoma, extensive aortic thrombosis and chronic duodenal peptic ulcer in the same patient].
An association of alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver, hepatoma, extensive aortic thrombosis, and chronic bleeding peptic ulcer of the duodenal bulbus in a patient who survived only three days after hospitalisation is reported. An explanation of each disease is given and the fact that a basically hypocoagulative situation (cirrhosis) can give rise to thrombosis of the aorta is stressed. Production and release into the circulation of thromboplastins by the hepatoma (paraneoplastic syndrome), leading aortic atherosclerosis and slow circulation due to haemorrhagic cardiocirculatory collapse was the most likely explanation.
