[Long-term experience with brachial plexus anesthesia].

In this work we report on our experience of more than 11 000 cases of plexus anaesthesia in the eight years 1976-1983. Particular care is taken to show how both the increase in experience and the amelioration in technology have led to an increase in the success rate. Our initial and current methods of axillary plexus block are described in detail, as are the most important signs relevant to the placing of the needle. Finally we discuss indications and contraindications, as well as possible complications and their prevention.

[A contribution to differential diagnosis between acute respiratory distress syndrome and central fatty embolism illustrated by examples from traumatology (author's transl)].

The article reports on 5 patients with polytrauma or who had undergone major surgery of the long bones. In all 5 patients there was acute respiratory insufficiency, and, in addition, a comatose condition lasting for a shorter or greater length of time. In 4 out of these 5 patients, tachypnea occurred despite normalisation of the pO2. Petechial hemorrhages occurred in 3 patients at the trunk. All patients rapidly overcame the acute respiratory insufficiency; no pulmonary shock syndrome developed. In case of acute respiratory insufficiency, especially if associated with comatose conditions, central fatty embolism should always be considered a differential diagnostic possibility.
