[Isolated obliteration of the popliteal artery. Angiographic, functional and surgical considerations].

31 patients suffering from isolated obliteration of the popliteal artery were selected for reporting from a series of 1500 peripheral angiographies. It is pointed out that the lesion is due principally to a segmentary localization of atherosclerosis. A case of adventitial cyst and one of muscular pincer syndrome have also been encountered. Attentive study of angiographic pictures showed up a number of behaviour modalities of the collateral circulation. The surgical approaches available in such circumstances are also reported.

[Interposition of the jejunal loop in the surgical treatment of gastroduodenal ulcer, postprandial syndromes and gastric cancer].

50 cases of interposition of jejunal loop (32 for gastric cancer and 18 for ulcerous pathology) carried out over the last 3 years are reported. From a technical point of view and as an alternative to degastroenteroanastomosis, interposition of the loop is preferred in partial oral end-to-end on the stomach. In neoplastic lesions, Mouchet-Camey type reconstruction was adopted as a routine measure. After describing the complications of the operation and analyzing the causes, the long-term results are evaluated using absorption curves with 131-I labelled oleic acid. The excellent weight increase in the inflammatory forms, and the lack of reflow and dumping in patients subjected to total gastrectomy for cancer, confirm the value of the technique.
