title: [Hepatic manifestations in typhoid fever (author's transl)].
abstract: Typhoid fever is always endemic in Ivory Coast. Among the various visceral injuries able to arrive during the course of the illness, a study of hepatic manifestations realized in 279 patients show, by the realization of systematic LBP, that, beside clinically and/or biologically certain forms, an hepatic injury is histologically constant. Aetiological, clinical, biological, diagnostic and therapeutic particularities connected with the hepatic localizations are considered and compared with findings of other authors. To remark, in Ivory Coast, on one hand the great predominance of Eberth bacillus aetiology, on the other hand the lack of statistically significative relation with drepanocytary waste. The pathogenic signification of the constancy of the hepatic injury and its peculiar histological pattern of non specific reactive hepatitis is discussed.
