Isolated tricuspid valve prolapse.
Tricuspid valve prolapse is commonly associated with mitral valve prolapse or other heart abnormalities and is rarely found as an isolated finding. A patient with isolated tricuspid valve prolapse is described which was discovered on routine examination of an asymptomatic pilot.

Aircrew selection: a prospective study.
The medical reasons for rejection among 3,000 consecutive applicants for flight training were evaluated, and the effectiveness of the screening process determined by reviewing subsequent medical wastage occurring during flight training. Of the 46 cadets who left the course because of medical reasons, 8 withheld information which would have led to their rejection on the original screening examination (epilepsy 1, recurrent syncope 1, migraine headache 2, Crohn's disease 1, asthma 1, chronic knee pain 1, and chronic recurrent headaches 1). There were also two errors in medical processing. The other 36 cases could not have been predicted by current screening procedures. We conclude that the major deficiency in our screening process is the concealment or withholding of information by candidates for flight training.

Technetium-99m macroaggregates for the study of the distribution of arterial infusion chemotherapy in the liver.
One case of primary hepatic tumor and four cases of metastatic liver disease which were treated by intra-arterial infusion are reported herein to demonstrate the importance of monitoring the perfused parenchyma by imaging in at least two views (anterior and lateral) after the injection of radiolabeled macroaggregates into the infusion system.

Asymptomatic microscopic hematuria in pilots.
Pilots were examined in order to determine whether the cumulative incidence or point prevalence of asymptomatic microscopic hematuria is associated with air duty. The cumulative incidence of recurrent microscopic hematuria over a 12-15-year period was 11.3%(17/151) in fighter pilots, 10.0%(8/80) in helicopter pilots, and 13.8% (11/80) in transport pilots. Similarly, the point prevalence of microscopic hematuria in those who had flown the day prior to the urinalysis was no higher than found in the control group. We conclude that air duty does not cause microscopic hematuria either chronically or during the day after the stress of air flight.

Spondylolithesis in pilots: a follow-up study.
There were 21 pilots followed for 12-131 months in order to determine the natural history of spondylolithesis (SLL). Of these 21, 16 had follow-up X-ray examinations, and only 1 was found with significant progression of the posterior vertebral displacement. Of the 12 pilots with SLL and low back pain (LBP), 4 had recurrent single episodes of acute LBP, but all remained active and continued to fly over the follow-up period. None of the 9 pilots who had SLL discovered on routine X-ray examination developed LBP over the follow-up period. We conclude that pilots with SLL can continue to fly with minimal risk of morbidity and loss of flight time.
