SummaryLaser nephelometry is a technique which allows the evaluation of the concentration of several serum proteins and clotting factors. By means of this technique it is also possible to study the kinetics of the reaction between antigen and antibody. We studied the kinetics of the reaction between prothrombin and an antiprothrombin antiserum using several prothrombins namely: Prothrombin Padua, prothrombin Molise, which are two congenital dysprothrombinemias, cirrhotic, coumarin or normal prothrombins. Different behaviors in the kinetics of the reactions were shown even when the concentration of prothrombins was about the same in all plasma tested. These differences were analyzed by means of a computer (Apple II 48 RAM) programmed to solve four unknown equations (Rodbard’s equation). From the data so obtained one can see that when voltages at the beginning and at the end of the reaction are in all cases about the same, a clear difference in the time required to reach half the maximum value of the voltage can still be demonstrated. This parameter, which is expressed in minutes, is longer in coumarin and prothrombin Molise than in controls. On the contrary it is shorter in prothrombin Padua and has about the same value of controls in the cirrhotic patient. Moreover the time at which the maximum rate is obtained is longer in coumarin and prothrombin Molise than in controls and shorter in liver cirrhosis and prothrombin Padua. In conclusion data obtained show that coumarin prothrombin behaves in a different way from cirrhotic prothrombin and also that there is a different behaviour between the two congenital dysprothrombinemias.

Mirizzi syndrome is described in the 1940s as follows: partial obstruction of the secondary common hepatic duct by gallstones, impacted on the cystic duct or gallbladder infundibulum, associated with the inflammatory response that involved the cystic duct and the common hepatic duct. As it is a rare and delicate condition, differential diagnosis is extremely important, in which the patient's clinical condition is verified through anamnesis and complementary exams, where immediately after the surgical intervention can be performed. This work aims to describe, through a literature review, the clinical aspects and the surgical technique in Mirizzi Syndrome. Were used as a database for research sites containing scientific articles available online such as Virtual Health Library (VHL), Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo) and PubMed. 154 articles were found through the descriptors, where after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria 11 articles remained to write the work. According to the articles surveyed, it is clear that most of them do not report the syndrome as the main diagnosis, possibly because it is a pathology with signs and symptoms very close to other diseases of the bile duct, therefore leaving the syndrome sometimes described in the context of these other diseases. Finally, it concludes that even though the preoperative diagnosis is rare, it should be suspected in individuals undergoing biliary surgery.
