Plasma cholinesterase deficiency.
Plasma cholinesterase (PCE) is an enzyme necessary for the metabolism of certain anesthetic-related medications. Individuals with abnormal cholinesterase activity (e.g., insufficient quantity of functional PCE or atypical PCE genotypes) may exhibit a prolonged paralytic response to the muscle relaxants succinylcholine and mivacurium. A review of perianesthesia nursing considerations and treatment modalities relating to patients presenting with this interesting clinical picture will be offered.

Malignant ascites: etiology, diagnosis, and treatment.
One of the most uncomfortable and potentially compromising symptoms of many types of cancer is ascites. Unfortunately, ascites usually occurs at a stage when cure is no longer possible and palliation is the primary treatment goal. Modern surgical advances offer the possibility of peritoneovenous shunting. This procedure can offer relief from those symptoms that may significantly alter the performance of daily living activities and for continued participation in usual life-styles.
