Book excerpt: Excerpt from North American Archives of Medical and Surgical Science, Vol. 1 Another variety of fever, is that in which symptoms of gastric disturbance are predominant. Under such circumstances, the disease falls with its principal force upon the stomach, and fre quently upon the upper part of the duodenum. When this latter organ is much a 'ected, there is, besides, in many cases, more Or less consecutive disturbance of the liver, giving the disease something of the character of bilious fever. When the disease affects the stomach chie y, it has been very properly denominated gastric fever, or by the proselytes of the Brons saian school, gastro-duodenitis. When to the other symptoms, are superadded such as denote a disturbance of the liver, the term gastro-duodeno-hepatitis has been employed, by the advo cates of the same doctrines, to designate the parts, implicated. This variety of fever not unfrequently presents itself under' a form of great intensity, an example of which is furnished by the yellow fever, which seems to fall with its principal force upon these three organs.
