[Percutaneous kidney calculus removal].

The authors describe the method of percutaneously removing renal calculi. The application of the percutaneous method was made possible in their case by the fact that, following pyelotomy, a nephrostomy had been previously inserted into the system of renal cavities of the right side in a polytraumatized patient. Two recidive calculi formed in the immobilized patient; after the patient's mobilization the authors removed these through the opening of the drain with lithotomy forceps and with the help of an image intensifier.

[Transurethral resection in bladder tumors].

The experience gained in the course of 127 transurethral resections of bladder tumours are described. After discussing the indications and the technique the authors present their own results. The advantages of transurethral resection are emphasized: reduced operational stress, early mobilization, quick removal of the catheter, few postoperative complications, low cost of nursing. Therefore the operation is given preference mainly in the treatment of elderly patients with bladder tumour.

Experimental study of marginal wedge resection and its practical application in the surgical therapy of staghorn calculi.

A surgical procedure for staghorn calculi, which are inaccessible to conservative therapy, is described. It not only provides for complete elimination of the calculus but may also contribute to the prevention of recurrences. The technique of marginal wedge excision of the renal parenchyma, developed in animal studies, is described in detail and 11 surgical cases are reported. Removal of staghorn calculi was successful all throughout, and renal function remained unaffected by the intervention in all of the cases. Recurrences were confined to a single case. The procedure is safe, it involves no greater surgical strain than does marginal nephrotomy, but its short-term metaphylactic results seem more promising. Assessment of the long-term results awaits further observations.

Factors influencing the prognosis of acute renal failure. (Analysis of 228 cases).

Two hundred and twenty-eight patients were treated for acute renal failure between October, 1964, and December 31, 1976. Complex antiuraemic therapy has been applied in 96, and haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis in 132 cases. The overall mortality rate was 40.7%. The part played by age, primary process and possible complications of acute renal failure in the mortality figures is examined. From the analysis of clinical features, infections and septicaemia emerge as primary factors responsible for the high mortality. In conclusion the therapeutic measures which may minimize the hazard of inflammatory complications are summed up.
