title: [Hepatitis markers in gastroenterological diseases in southwest Germany].
abstract: In 360 unselected patients with different gastroenterological diseases we found higher rates of positive hepatitis markers in non-specific inflammation and ulcer of stomach or small bowel as well as in liver diseases (24.5 resp. 41.7%) in comparison to a healthy population. There were no pathogenetic connections to the gastroenterological disease, HBs-antigen-carriers were not increased.
