[Unusual localizations of hydatid cysts].

In a total of 448 hydatic cysts that have been treated in the I-st Surgery Clinic of Jassy between 1947 and 1977 rare localizations were noted in 61 cases. Of these 47 were primary echinococcoses and 14 were secondary. The clinical and therapeutic aspects are discussed for each particular localization: the splenic localization was encountered in 16 cases, the peritoneal one in 10 cases, the diaphragmatic in 6 cases. There were also 2 renal localizations, 3 retro-peritoneal ones, 3 ovarian and salpyngean localizations, 3 thyroid, 7 endo-thoracic but extra-pulmonary, 5 muscular and 6 subcutaneous localizations. Radical surgery had immediate and late results that were quite satisfactory. No deaths or recidives were noted.

[Laparoscopic adhesiolysis].

The laparoscopic approach of the postoperative adhesions represents not only a way of diagnosing the pathogenic adhesions but also a superior alternative to the surgery of classical dissection of adhesions by laparotomy because of its obvious advantages: the evolution is simple, the bowel activity is quickly restored, the brief period of hospitalisation, the reduced risk of recurrence. The authors present their experience derived from the 29 laparoscopic adhesiolysis: 3 urgent cases with subocclusions, 6 when the surgical intervention was programmed, with a painful postoperative suffering, and 20 with laparoscopic cholecystectomy. From among these cases, a conversion and a postoperative complication were recorded. The result after a period of time are satisfactory.
