[Our experience with cysts of the pancreas].

The Authors produced their series of pancreatic cysts and pseudocysts. In order to a correct surgical therapy they deem it essential to do the Wirsungraphia or the cysto-wirsungraphia to recognize the "communicating cyst" and the "non communicating cyst". The simple resection and the cystoparenchimal resection are the operations of choice but the cystoanastomosis provides suitable and definitive results in the same way. Whereas the marsupialization and the external drainage are operations to reserve for the high risk patients, for the hazard of the pancreatic fistula particularly in the "communicating cyst".

[Emergency or deferred treatment of perforated and bleeding gastroduodenal ulcer].

The treatment of perforated peptic ulcer, according to the experience of the Authors (327 cases), must be very pressing and always surgical. The closure of the perforation, the simplest treatment, seems the most suitable and the least dangerous for the survival of the patient, even though 68% of these patients will have to undergo surgery again in the course of 10 years. The radical treatment of resection, is reserved to few and carefully chosen cases, because it is loaded with sufficient risk. Acute bleeding peptic ulcer (86 cases) requires the operation: immediate or delayed according to the importance of the hemorrage: very serious, serious, moderate.
