Charcot’s triad is an eponym referring to two sets of clinical features: one for acute cholangitis or, less commonly, a second set for multiple sclerosis. It is named after Jean-Martin Charcot (1825–1893), a French neurologist who first described the combination of signs and symptoms as they relate to these two diseases. ==Acute cholangitis== Most commonly Charcot’s triad is used with regard to ascending cholangitis. Definitions commonly describe three common signs and symptoms: # right upper quadrant pain, # jaundice, and # fever.〔 Related to this description is Reynolds' pentad. Pentad means 'group of five' and includes the additional two signs of: * Hypotension * Confusion 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charcot's triad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
