On the basis of literature and the results of investigations performed in the Department of Experimental Surgery and Plastics Research of the Institute of Surgery, Medical Academy in Wroclaw (Poland), the author discusses early and late complications after intratissular injections of silicone fluids. The indications for their clinical use are limited.
The multilayer unwoven fabric dressings have been examined both in laboratory and clinic. The properties of metalized and ordinary dressings have been compared. In clinical examinations the usefulness of metalized materials was proved to burns and granulating wounds. Also the advantages of unwoven fabric materials over the classic dressings have been ascertained.
The results of tissue reaction to polyester thermoelectret foil samples are evaluated. The electrostatic measurement of the foils was performed before implantation. The experimental animals were divided into four groups depending on the surface charge density of the foils. The autopsy of the animals was performed three days after the operation. The tissues of close contact to the foil were examined under the microscope and the electrostatic measurement of the foils.
In an effort to improve vascular prostheses, basic studies on tissue-alloplastic prostheses according to a new conception were performed. A medical polyester yarn was used for the construction of three types of prostheses with different mesh and high porosity. The prostheses were autogenized on silicon rods and then lyophilized, resulting in their full intraoperative impermeability, but high biological permeability and antithrombogenicity. Vascular prostheses of this type fulfill many of the requirements of a so-called ideal prosthesis. Analysis of the test examinations provides a basis for elaborating principles for the preparation and production of new tissue-alloplastic prostheses for clinical purposes.
The authors performed basic technological, laboratory and clinical examinations of elastic bandages to choose the most proper one helpful to reconstructive operations in temporary ischaemic field, mainly in hand surgery. The physical and mechanical properties, and clinical advantages of chosen elastic bandages applied in 100 operations have been described.
Current trends in development of medicine related to advances in the technological sciences are discussed. Possibilities of cooperation of medicine and technology are reviewed, and ways of modernizing medical science and practice by utilizing achievements in this and other countries are pointed out.
The analysis of cardiac electric field interference on rabbits with additional heart implanted to abdominal cavity resulted in explanation of ecg variations during the first hours of newborn's life. The investigation of multipole and multidipole fields in spherical chamber proved that the disturbation of axial symmetry of added up elementary dipoles evokes significant multipole components in the heart.

There has been attempted in the Institute of Surgery, Wrocław Medical School, in 1975 the clinica study with the purpose of comparative evaluation of two kinds of tissue-resorbable surgical sutures, namely catgut and polyglycolic acid threads. To standardize the basic methods of clinical examination to be followed by teams of experts, basing on literature data and own experience, a proposition was elaborated including indications and methods of choosing the groups of resorbable and non-resorbable threads, aseptic demands, and intraoperative, postoperative and laboratory examinations.
Twelve kinds of adhesive tapes and dressing materials produced by Beiersdorf were evaluated using laboratory, experimental and clinical tests. There were performed examinations of physical, physico-mechanical and bacteriostatic properties. Tests for supradermal and intradermal reactivity were performed in experimental animals. Moreover, different clinical tests of these materials were made.
