[Value of hypovolemia in subarachnoid hemorrhage].

Hypovolemia seems a commun state in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. It has been further suggested that hypovolemia could cause ischemia if vasospasm is present. Total blood volume and red blood cells volume determined in 84 consecutive patients volume of distribution (of 51Chromium labeled autologous red cells, shows an hypovolemia in 70% of these patients). Associated hypomotremia requires Na restitution with normovolemic hemodilution to facilitate cerebral blood flow.

Achilles tendon repair using a bone-tendon graft harvested from the knee extensor system: three cases.

The authors describe a new surgical technique of Achilles tendon reconstruction using bone-tendon graft from the knee extensor system. This technique is for those unusual cases of neglected or partial Achilles tendon rupture with distal tendon-substance loss at calcaneal insertion level, requiring transbone plasty fixation. Three cases are reported; the first two, followed up over a 5-year period, had excellent functional, morphological, and clinical outcomes. This new technique is compared with other available solutions: triceps plasty, other local tendon plasty, artificial plasty, and allograft.
