[Gastric lipoma as an unusual cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding].

This is a case report of a gastric lipoma causing a severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding. About 200 cases of this very rare benign gastric tumor have been reported so far. Symptoms are not characteristic, but may also mimic malignancy when occurring with bleeding, obstruction or weight loss. Malignant transformation is possible, but extremely rare. Because the tumor is situated under the submucosal layer in 90%, preoperative diagnosis by endoscopic biopsy is almost never possible. The tumor has to be treated by resection. A diagnosis by frozen section during the operation is recommended.

[Direction-dividing road construction measures and their consequences in traffic. An analysis of 1120 accident protocols prior to and following opening of a freeway section].

We analysed the traffic accidents on a typical Swiss road traffic about 14 km and over a period of 11 years before and after the building of a motorway. A new rotat is the most important factor for a really current number of traffic accidents. In the same time we registered a higher density flow of traffic on these roads.

[Suture of the Achilles tendon with a reinforcing-plasty--experiences with 30 primary sutures of Achilles tendon ruptures].

We analysed 32 patients with fresh Achilles tendon rupture. 30 operations with a special primary suture and plasty of the fascia triceps muscle. Most of the patients were content with the operative treatment and the functional result. We saw one wound infection and one wound rand necrosis. The objective controls of OSG foot function and the muscle activity is good.

[Should drainage be performed in perforated appendicitis?].

During a follow-up study we examined 85 patients (34 children) with perforated appendicitis. The operating procedure is shortly sketched. The very favourable early and late results of our patients confirm the findings of other authors [2, 4, 5] that an intraperitoneal drainage is unnecessary in patients with perforated appendicitis. We take a thick Penrose drain for any abscess within a capsule.
