[Cholecystolithotomy with cholecystojejunostomy as surgical solution for cholelithiasis in portal hypertension caused by hepatic cirrhosis].

Cholecystolithotomy and cholecystojejunostomy has been carried out on 11 patients with severe hypertension from cirrhosis. The indications were frequently recurring attacks of biliary cholic or acute cholecystitis at onset. There was 1 postoperative death from cardiac infarction and only minor in-hospital morbidity. None of the remaining patients has to date developed post-cholecystojejunostomy sequelae. Except the case of extensive inflammation on gangrena, this procedure appears to be a safe and definitive operation, alternative to subtotal cholecystectomy.

[Spontaneous pneumothorax (therapeutic consideration)].

The Authors report the results achieved in 74 patients with spontaneous pneumothorax. The treatment was conservative in 66 patients. The surgical treatment was performed in 8 patients operated with monolateral resection of apical bullae (7 cases) or lobectomy (1 case) through lateral thoracotomy.

[Upper digestive hemorrhage (observations on 201 cases)].

The results obtained in 201 cases of haemorrhage of the higher tract of the digestive tube are reported. The role of early endoscopy (less than 24 h) and that of a "rigorous" selection of patients for surgery treatment are emphasized. The value of surgical resection in serious haemorrhage of chronic peptic ulcus is confirmed by the satisfactory results obtained.

[Lipid cell carcinoma of the breast].

A review of cases treated in 1978-82 revealed 1 case of lipid cell carcinoma of the breast out of 310 mammary carcinomas. Given the rarity of this histological type and the generally poorer than average prognosis, it seems likely that it should be considered separately from the other cases.

[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.
