[Bronchogenic carcinoma (personal observations)].

The authors report the results achieved in the treatment of 62 patients with pulmonary cancer "non-microcytoma". The survival rate was 20.9% at 5 years (actuarial). The best prognosis is for patients with epidermoid cancer: 35.5%. The authors emphasize the importance of the exact stage of the neoplasm and the evaluation of the postoperative cardiopulmonary functional adaptation in the prognostic evaluation of resection for pulmonary carcinoma.

[Recurrent anorectal abscesses].

A study of 78 patients with recurrent anorectal abscess was carried out to elucidate the cause of recurrence. The inadequate treatment (incision and drainage) and the spontaneous rupture or resolution of the abscess with no further treatment were the most common reasons for recurrence. At surgery, 18 patients were found to have recurrent hidradenitis suppurativa. The authors recommend a careful regional exploration under anesthesia and an aggressive surgical approach to achieve satisfactory results and to ensure minimal, if any recurrence.

[Transduodenal papillosphincterotomy. Remarks on 138 cases (1975-1982)].

Transduodenal papillosphincterotomy, largely performed since many years, is still controversial. The retrospective analysis of 138 cases allows a discussion about its indications and some important details of surgical technique. Particularly, the authors report a relative low incidence of serious complications, with peculiar regard to postsurgical acute pancreatitis, and satisfactory long-term results (follow-up ranging from one to eight years) in the 95,2% of cases.
