[Stenosis of the left angle of the colon caused by chronic pancreatitis].

Case of stenosis of the left flexure of the colon caused by pancreatitis is reported. The relevant literature is surveyed and an account is given of the pathogenesis of this forms, and the examinations required in its diagnosis, particularly coloscopy. A preference is expressed for an internal colic derivation (colon-colon anastomosis) rather than resection, on account of the smaller degree of risk involved.
