[A technic to avoid postoperative intestinal hypodynamia].

The hypodynamic postoperative ileus in children, has as main cause the circle gastric distension-reflex intestinal ileus, produced by the swallowed air. The gastric emptying system-through a Levin tube from the stomach is not usually sufficient to get off all the swallowed air. Nevertheless, a continuous suction from the lower third of oesophagus, through a double lumen sump tube is twelve times more effective in the getting off de air before it comes into the stomach, without need of a nasogastric tube.

[Intestinal recirculation in the management of experimental short bowel syndrome (author's transl)].

A short bowel syndrome was produced in 33 mongrel puppies less than one month of age, by resecting 80% of the small bowel. An end-to-end anastomosis was performed in 14 dogs (Group A). Sixteen dogs were reanastomosed by performing an isoperistaltic circular intestinal loop, modified from Tanner and Mackby (Group B). Three dogs had a circular loop performed using Mackby method, but this technique was abandoned because of intraluminal stasis. Long term survival on 18 dogs was 12,5% for Group A and 57% for Group B. Weight gain on the survivors was over 25% higher in Group B. Intestinal transit time was abnormally short only in Group A. The loop procedure seems worthy of further clinical trial.

[Venous aneurysms of the neck in childhood (author's transl)].

Three children with four fusiform venous aneurysms in the neck are described. A correct referral clinical diagnosis had not been established in any of these children. The diagnosis should be made generally on the basis of the physical examination, including the test of the "digital pressure", which is particularly useful to rule out a laringocele. Three of the aneurysms have been treated by surgical removal. Histological examination showed microscopic changes which were related to the time elapsed since the mass was first noticed. Areas of thinning out and sclerosis of the venous wall were evident in one case. The patient with the remaining aneurysm is being followed closely.
