[Cystic lymphangioma: treatment with adhesive fibrin tissue. Follow-up study].

We present twelve cases of cystic lymphangioma in the neck and one in the leg, treated with fibrina adhesive injected into the lesion, during the periode 1991-1994. Two cases had been surgically treated and experimental recurrence of the tumor previous to our treatment. In the other ten the punction was the only therapy applied. Four cases needed two punctions and only one of then after two failed punctions, had be treated with surgical extripation. The follow up was between 3 and 42 months, with a mean of 26.5 months. No complications appeared. The ecografic follow up demonstrated a complete remission in the ten cases treated only with punction. We believe that our results support the fact that the punction-aspiration and posterior Tissucol infection is the first choice in the surgical treatment of the cystic lymphangioma.

[Acute intestinal invagination: hydrostatic reduction vs. pneumatic reduction].

We report the results of 100 cases of acute intussusception treated by inflation of the colon with air under controlled pressure. We compare this method with the traditional one and we analyse the advantages of each method. Successful reduction was achieved in 76% of the cases of intussusception treated with a barium enema and in 88% of the cases treated with an air enema. Pneumocolon in the treatment of acute intestinal intussusception is an alternative method that is very effective and with additional advantages such as: less radiation, less cost and less morbidity in case of perforation.

[Fibrin adhesive: a new therapeutic alternative in the treatment of cystic lymphangioma].

We present three cases of cystic lymphangioma of the neck, treated with a new therapeutic method which consists of an injection of fibrin adhesive into the lesion following aspiration of the liquid contents of the lymphangioma. Two of the cases had been treated surgically and were faced with the recurrence of the tumor, the aforesaid treatment was applied. In the third case, it was the only therapy applied. We believe that the results obtained were excellent in all three cases.

[Behavior of the contralateral ureter following surgery for unilateral antireflux surgery].

We present our experience of 44 cases with unilateral vesicorenal reflux that had been treated by ureteroneocystostomy using the Cohen technique. The reflux disappeared in 32 cases, it appeared in the contralateral ureter in 7 patients, it was ipsilateral in 2 and bilateral in 3. Of the 10 cases with contralateral reflux, 2 required surgery, while 8 were amenable to medical treatment. In our series, contralateral reflux appeared at random. Since the spontaneous cure rate was 80%, we believe that bilateral antireflux surgery for unilateral reflux is unwarranted. Urodynamic studies can be important in the indication for conservative treatment.
