Intestinal angina. Report on two operated cases.

In spite of the fact that the concept of intestinal angina is more than 70 years old, it is not generally accepted and only 400 cases of elective revascularization of the celiac/mesenteric arteries are reported in the literature. Two typical cases of intestinal angina treated with elective revascularization are presented and the pertinent literature is reviewed. An aggresive approach to the problem, followed by adequate reconstruction, is recommended.

Benign obstructive prostatic enlargement. A comparison between the results of treatment by transurethral electro-resection and the results of open surgery.

The results of 532 transurethral electro-resections (TUR) are compared with 67 open prostatectomies performed over a period of 9 years. The age ranges of the two patient materials were fairly similar. The incidence of associated medical diseases was rather high, 30.8%. The weight limit of the glands selected for TUR was preset at 80 g; the largest resected gland was 120 g. post electro-resection weight. The overall mortality rate for the series was 0.5%; for TUR 0.37% and for open surgery 1.5%. The per- and postoperative complications were fewer in the TUR group than in the open surgery group. The post-operative hospital stay was definitely shorter in the patients subjected to TUR.
