Palliative surgical treatment of inoperable oesophageal and cardia tumours with prosthesis.

During a 12-year period, 112 palliative surgical intubations were performed for nutritional inability due to tumours causing oesophageal stricture, tumours of the cardia and of the stomach unmanageable by anastomosis, and to that of the gastric stump. Surgical complications and mortality can be considerably reduced by careful preparation and practice. Palliative intubation is suitable for making the patient's normal nutrition possible and the rest of his or her life more endurable. The intervention is recommended to replace the bypass anastomosis incurring a great risk and gastrostomy producing several objective and psychic complaints.

Metronidazole in the chemoprophylaxis of colon and rectum operations.

In the preparation of colorectal operations, beside the mechanical cleaning of the bowels, orally administered metronidazole, acting on anaerobic bacteria, was found to be highly effective. Compared to the controls, the drug considerably reduced the number and severity of postoperative infections, and, consequently, also the mortality. With metronidazole prophylaxis no wound suppuration indicating anaerobic infection was noted. The combined application of metronidazole with some antibiotic acting on the aerobic bacteria of the intestinal flora resulted in a significant reduction of postoperative infections.

Focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver and hepatic cell adenoma in women on oral contraceptives.

The article reports on the respective occurrence of focal nodular hyperplasia and hepatic cell adenoma in the liver of two women on oral contraceptives. The hepatic cell adenoma showed serious vascular lesions, including peliosis hepatis. Both tumors were removed surgically, and the patients are well. A possible relationship between oral contraception and benign hepatic tumor genesis is discussed under consideration of the pertinent literary data.
