[Indications for internal, medioposterior with anoplasty or lateral sphincterectomy during hemorrhoidectomy. Our experience].

The authors report their experience of internal, medial posterior with anoplasty and left lateral, sphincterotomy during haemorrhoidectomy according to Milligan and Morgan. Internal sphincterotomy represents a valid complement to haemorrhoidectomy assuring a better postoperative period: it removes the pain by hypertone of the internal sphincter and avoids the stenosis. The indications for both sphincterotomy techniques are suggested by anatomo-clinical characteristics of the lesion and by combined pathologies.

[Verneuil's peri-anal suppurative hidrosadenitis. Considerations on 2 clinical cases].

Two cases of perianal Verneuil's disease personally observed are described. It is a rare chronic inflammation of the apocrine sweat glands in several skin areas. The exasperating chronicity and the propensity to extend of the disease involve complicated problems of diagnosis and therapy. A squamous cell carcinoma can rarely complicate long lasting hidrosadenitis. The treatment consist in a radical surgical excision of the involved areas. The patient must be controlled for a long time since the evolution of this disease cannot be foreseen.

[The use of DuoDerm in the surgical wound after surgical treatment of pilonidal fistulae using the open method].

The results of a study on the use of DuoDerm Hydroactive sterile occlusive dressing on the operative wound after simple excision of pilonidal fistula are reported. Two groups of 20 patients were studied: in the first group the wound was treated with traditional medications, in the second group with DuoDerm. Comparing the results obtained from these two groups, the Authors conclude underlining the therapeutic efficacy of the dressing which stimulates granulation and accelerates re-epithelialization with complete healing in 6 weeks on average compared with the 10 needed with traditional medications.
