Abstract
In an investigation of 417 cases of Laennec’s cirrhosis, peptic ulcer was found in 13.9 per cent. Of these patients with peptic ulcer 28 per cent, or 16, were admitted because of hemorrhage from the ulcer. Some of the factors leading to this increased incidence of peptic ulcer in patients with Laennec’s cirrhosis are discussed.
