A competitive enzyme immunoassay for albuterol: its application for the drug screening in urine.

A competitive enzyme immunoassay using purified monoclonal IgG1 and an alkaline phosphatase-albuterol derivative has been developed for the quantification of albuterol in urine. The calibration curve obtained in optimal incubation conditions is characterized by a minimum detectable level of 26 fmol/well and a working range from 52 fmol to 4,2 pmol/well. This method allows the precise and accurate quantification of albuterol in horse urine without any clean up or extraction step. Moreover the definition of its specificity shows a cross-reactivity of the antibody with the glucurono-/sulfo-conjugates of albuterol. This property is particularly interesting for the screening of urinary albuterol residues in meat producing animals.

[Conservative surgery of the pulmonary parenchyma and bronchial cancer (author's transl)].

In a series of 236 patients operated upon for bronchogenic carcinoma, a limited pulmonary resection with bronchial resection and anastomosis has been performed in 22 cases. There has been no postoperative mortality; the complications have been remarkably rare: anastomotic stenosis (1 case), temporary bronchial leak (2 cases), local recurrence (2 cases) by patients with hilar or mediastinal involvement, chylothorax (1 case). The pulmonary function also has not been much reduced by the operation, leaving the patients a good quality of life. Survival after bronchoplastic procedures as compared with pneumonectomy or lobectomy shows a mean survival of 30% to 12.5% and 21% respectively for the latter procedures.

[False aneurysm of the external iliac artery. A late complication of hip surgery (author's transl)].

The authors report one case of false aneurysm of the right external iliac artery following perforation of the acetabulum by a Böhler nail, which was placed twenty-two years before. Clinical signs were a no-pulsating tumor of the right fossa iliaca, deep venous thrombosis of the right leg and severe anemia. Treatment included resection of the false aneurysm, suture of the arterial wound and removal of the Böhler nail. The authors report the place held by vascular lesions in bone surgery, and diagnostic difficulties due to the delayed clinical manifestations.
