Fibromuscular dysplasia of the external iliac artery.

A 47-year-old female with fibromuscular dysplasia of both external iliac arteries was treated by percutaneous balloon catheter angioplasty. The immediate result was unsatisfactory. On discharge from hospital, the patient was only able to walk one kilometer, and had reduced ankle:arm blood pressure indices. Conservative treatment with anticoagulants for three months, followed by ticlopidine, and exercise for six months led to complete recovery.

The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in postpneumonectomy pulmonary oedema.

A 59-year-old male developed a severe adult respiratory distress syndrome following a right pneumonectomy for pulmonary cancer. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for 11 days was life-saving. The operation was considered curative, but the patient died nine months later with multiple metastases. The pathogenesis and treatment for postpneumonectomy pulmonary oedema and an explanation for rapid dissemination of the cancer are stated.

High frequency jet ventilation for severe haemoptysis during extracorporeal circulation.

Two patients are described in whom fulminant haemoptysis occurred during extracorporeal circulation. The use of high frequency jet ventilation resulted in a dramatic decrease of blood loss from the tracheal tube, avoiding the need for more aggressive management.

Baker's cyst connected to popliteal artery cyst.

A patient with compression of the left popliteal artery by cystic adventitial disease is presented. The adventitial cyst was connected to a Baker's cyst. The patient suffered severe ischemia only after heavy exercise, because the mucous fluid of the Baker's cyst shifted into the popliteal artery cyst when the Baker's cyst was compressed. The etiology of cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery in this patient is discussed.
