Tenderness over the gall bladder extending downward and to theleft, sharply localized, increased by downward traction, but decreasedby upward traction, when present with any or all of the aforementionedsubjective symptoms, suggests the presence of this type of band. X-rayexamination may show a duodenal dilatation above the band and irregu-larities in the involved gut which are frequently interpreted as indicatingduodenal ulcers. The line of strain is downward and to the left on thegall bladder, and upward and to the right on the duodenum. PSEUDOCHOLECYSTITIS 59 4.
