[Diverticula of the duodenal orifice].

The authors present a synthesis of data from the literature, as well as of particularities that have confronted them in connection with 16 observations of mucous diverticuli of duodenal windows (of which 7 were interposed and 9 were juxtaposed). After a definition of the window diverticuli, of their types and of their repercussions, clinical data are commented upon, the possibilities offered by paraclinical investigations and by the intra-operatory methods, as well as the different therapeutical procedures. In relation with the clinical manifestation the diverticuli may be latent (or asymptomatic), they may be accompanied by direct signs of stasis and inflammation, or with biliary and pancreatic signs--an expression of the unfavourable influence exerted by the diverticuli on the biliary and pancreatic transits. The choice of the therapeutical procedure depends on the type of the diverticuli, the modality of the clinical expression and the bilio-pancreatic effects determined by them. Direct interventions can be performed on juxtaposed diverticuli, although this implies considerable risk, but indirect interventions are to be preffered, in which, in relation with the particularities of the case, the biliary transit is derivated or the duodenum is excluded from the digestive pathways.

Jejunoileal alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. A case report.

Intestinal localization of rhabdomyosarcoma is exceptional, this case is the first to be published in the world literature. A 35-year-old patient with abdominal pain, fever, was found to have an infiltrative white-grey tumour, involving 20 cm the jejunoileal wall and also the surrounding mesenterium up to the origin of upper mesenterical vessels and lymph nodes. Histologic examination showed an alveolar type of rhabdomyosarcoma intricated with solid undifferentiated tumoral cells. The presence of multinucleated giant cells and the positivity of protein S 100 reaction was important for differential diagnosis, given the alveolar soft part sarcoma, malignant mesothelioma, malignant melanoma or papillary carcinoma.

[Surgical rehabilitation of nonfunctioning bilio-digestive shunts].

The authors consider the internal biliary derivations as a choice procedure for the resolution of various pathological conditions of the biliary pathways and of the pancreas. They are based on the experience accumulated in the course of a total of 416 derivations performed in the last 10 years. The confrontation with particular problems raised by 40 re-interventions for failure of internal biliary derivations has determined an analysis of causes, clinical manifestations and possibilities to solve the disturbances. Categories are discussed, in which these patients can be classified and clinical observations are presented, in connection with the etiopathogeny of the non-functioning of the derivations. Possibilities are also presented for the resolution of the problems in each particular case. Two technical possibilities are presented for the correction of non-functioning biliary-digestive anastomoses, by performing bilio-biliary anastomoses.

[Surgical reoperation after vagotomy].

In 39 cases of re-interventions carried out after vagotomy (of which 31 were patients hospitalized in the Clinic and represent 8,6% of the total 358 vagotomies performed), the experience, the viewpoints and the recommendations of the authors are presented. Early re-interventions were necessayr because of complications which are common to abdominal surgery and only in a much lower degree to accidents that can be attributed to vagotomy or the associated intervention. Late re-interventions (26 cases) were necessary in 20 cases for ulcer recidives (13 for vagotomies performed in the Clinic and 7 for vagotomies performed in other units) while late-re-interventions for dumping syndrome, cholelythiasis, etc. represented only isolated cases in these statistics.

[Postbular duodenal ulcer. Problems of diagnosis and treatment. Role of vagotomy in surgical treatment].

A number of 43 cases is presented, of post-bulbar duodenal ulcers in which surgery has been performed between 1965 and 1974, of which 30 were located in the first portion of the duodenum, in the postbulbar area, and 15 in the second portion, above the ampula of Vater. Problems of terminology and pathological anatomy are discussed, especially in connection with the symptomatology, complications, methodology of investigations and treatment of post-bulbar ulcers. The particular frequency is stressed, of complicated clinical forms, with stenosis and hemorrhagies, and a detailed description is made of atypical forms, with misleading, predominantly biliary or pancreatic symptomatology. Conditions are stressed, of the radiologic gastroduodenal exploration, of major importance in the diagnosis preceding surgery, as well as of pre- and intra-surgery cholangiography. The risk must be carefully evaluated, in the choice of the surgical method, and exeresis of the ulcer must be balanced with the risk of its continued presence. Priority should be given to th risks entailed by surgery. The choice solution in many cases is vagotomy associated to exclusion resection or to gastric derivation.

[The main utility of trans-anastomosis external drainage in the hydatid liver cysts treatment by peri-cystic-jejunostomy].

We purpose to make a metanalysis of a external drainage and his role in the treatment of the hydatid liver cysts when it was made a anastomosis between peri-cystic cavity and a isolated loop of jejunum. The paper watch 74 cases which were operated in "I. Juvara" surgical clinic and in which it was used the external drainage of peri-cystic cavity. The drainage roles consist in follow up of peri-cystic cavity evolution, but, more than that, in early diagnosis and treatment of secondary infection of cavity, the main postoperative complication. The drainage excludes the possibility of unfavourable evolution of postoperative infection, in which case the result of operation may be compromised.

["The fate" of a peri-cystic-jejunostomy in the treatment of the hydatid liver cysts].

The persistence of a hepato-jejunal fistula after 9 years from a peri-cystic-jejunostomy in the treatment of hydatid liver cysts is an amazing condition. We discover this kind of fistula during the operation for cholelithiasis. This association between fistula and a "after-hydatid" choledocholithiasis is an opportunity to discuss some pathogenic and evolutive mechanisms about both of two entities.

[A rare neurogenic tumor with thoracic growth].

Of 70 operated mediastinal tumors, 15 were neurogenic tumors, one of them clepsydra-shaped, which manifested from the very beginning with spastic paraparesis of the legs. The treatment consisted in a two-steps surgery, the first at the Neurosurgical Clinical of Iaşi (laminectomy and ablation of the rachidian tumor) and the second one, one month later, at the I-st Surgical Clinic of Iaşi (excision of mediastinal tumor and parenchymal bridge within the conjugation hole). The microscopic examination confirmed the diagnosis of neurinoma (schwannoma) Antoni A and B with haemorrhagic areas. Examined at one year interval, the patient was clinically cured with normal thoracic aspect. The clinical peculiarities and therapeutical possibilities of the clepsydra-shaped neurogenic mediastinal tumors are detailed.

[Tumors of the upper urinary tract. Apropos 35 cases].

Thirty-five cases of upper urinary tract tumors treated by the authors in an interval of 10 years (1979-1988) are presented. After a detailed analysis of the cases some general considerations on the anatomopathologic forms of upper urinary tract tumors, stage classification, symptoms and clinical and laboratory diagnosis, therapeutical indications are made.
