[Retroperitoneal paragangliomas. Considerations on a internephro-caval case].

A case of paraganglioma situated between right renal vein, right renal artery and inferior vena cava is here with described. The report constitutes the rise to frame with precision the tumor according with WHO classification. Moreover criteria are to be discussed for nature and seat diagnosis, as well for the choice of the best way of access.

["Prophylactic" video-laparoscopic cholecystectomy].

The authors examine the prophylaxis of infections caused by cholelithiasis in kidney and heart transplant candidates as a new indication for videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy (VLC). The study included 6 patients in dialysis for chronic renal insufficiency and one patient suffering from cyanogenic congenital cardiopathy with asymptomatic gallbladder calculosis. The results obtained show that there are no substantial differences compared to patients without associated pathologies and justifies the inclusion of "prophylactic" VLC in preparatory treatment protocols for kidney and heart transplant in patients suffering from cholelithiasis. The authors emphasise the necessary technical measures to prevent hemorrhage, intraoperative loss of CO2 and postoperative laparoceles.

Adult

[Transrectal polypectomy using a TEM (transanal endoscopic microsurgery) technique].

The paper describes the removal of a broad-based tubulo-villous adenoma from the middle rectum using a transanal endoscopic microsurgical technique. This procedure, which was introduced by Buess, Thess and Hutterer in 1983, represents an alternative to the classic transanal technique, compared to which it is more accurate, and to the trans-sacral and transperitoneal methods compared to which it is less invasive.

Aged

[Proctological surgery in the day-hospital regimen].

567 haemorrohoidectomies 83 of which total haemorrhoidectomies for piles with surgical indications, were performed with recourse to day-hospital admission. The authors examine the results of this experience and advise this therapy and this type of admission for pathologies with different cost/benefit ratio.

Ambulatory Surgical Procedures

[Intra-operative irrigation during colonic resection and anastomosis in colonic obstruction].

The faecal loading associated with colonic obstruction is a fundamental deterrent to constructing a primary distal colonic anastomosis. The authors describe their preliminary experience of intraoperative colonic irrigation in the management of left sided large bowel emergencies. Five patients were operated using this technique (4 cancer obstruction and one sigma volvulus). They show good results performing primary anastomosis after emergency distal resection combined with complete colonic cleansing.

Aged

[Apropos of 2 unusual variations of origin and course of the deep femoral artery].

Two cases have been observed in which the deep femoral artery originated at the medial surface of the femoral and surrounded medially the femoral vein before entering its distribution area. The literature is examined and stress laid on the rarity of the abnormality and its importance as a possible factor in phlebothrombosis.
