Trematodes of the genus Haematoloechus (Digenea: Plagiorchiidae) from frogs in Korea.

Total 242 Rana nigromaculata and 9 R. catesbeiana were collected from the various localities in Korea from February 1989 to July 1991, and their lungs were examined. Five species in genus Haematoloechus, i.e., H. sibiricus japonicus (Yamaguti, 1936), H. nanchangensis Hsiung, 1934, H. variegatus (Rudolphi, 1819), H. lobatus (Seno, 1907), H. lobatus koreanus, were identified in this study. Among them, H. lobatus koreanus was a new subspecies and H. variegatus and H. lobatus were newly recorded from Korea.

A two-year experience with the Falope ring sterilization procedure.

The use of cautery laparoscopic sterilization procedures has two major disadvantages: (1) occasional inadvertent thermal injury to organ structures other than the Fallopian tube and (2) the inability to limit the injury to the Fallopian tube in a manner that might allow subsequent reconstructive surgery. In an effort to avoid the use of thermal energy to effect female sterilization, the Falope ring laparoscope was developed. From October, 1973, through September, 1975, 4,390 sterilization procedures were completed employing this approach; 902 cases have been completed at the Woman's Clinic of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, 1,741 cases were completed by gynecologists in various cities in the United States, and 1,747 procedures were completed by physicians in various locations throughout the world sponsored by the International Fertility Research Program.

A preliminary and intermediate report on a new laparoscopic tubal ring procedure.

A preliminary report is given of a new laparoscopic sterilization technique utilizing silicone rubber rings. A description of the laparoscopic silicone ring applicator and its operative utilization is provided. This technique eliminates the need for thermoenergy to insure tubal destruction and thus removes the cause of intestinal burns. The potential for successful future recannulization procedures should be greater with this procedure. This operation can be performed with a single or double puncture technique; in addition, it can be performed with a suprapubic or vaginal approach. Three hundred one cases have been completed without incurring major problems. No statement can be made at this time about the incidence of failure.
