Scintigraphic demonstration of tracheo-esophageal fistula.

A tracheo-esophageal fistula, developed following radiotherapy for an esophageal carcinoma, was vividly demonstrated by radionuclide imaging. The abnormality was later confirmed by a barium esophagram and endoscopic examinations. The scintigraphic procedure, making use of a Tc-99m sulfur colloid swallow, appears to be a simple alternative method that may be clinically useful for the diagnosis of such a condition.

The treatment of haemorrhoids by cryosurgery is fairly new. One hundred cases have been analysed and the results presented as a preliminary report. Although the maximum follow-up is only 18 months, so far the results have been encouraging, and should they be maintained this method of outpatient haemorrhoidectomy could dramatically alter the management of this condition.
