[Ultrasound anatomy of the liver].

The authors review the modern concept of liver anatomy, related to the needs of surgeons in segmental resections. Important anatomical structures are described participating in division of the liver into four basic segments. The ultrasound anatomy of portal system, hepatic veins, hepatic fissures and liver hilus are dealt with in detail. Criteria for perfect examination of the liver by ultrasound are defined and representability of key anatomical structure under optimal conditions is analyzed in a group of 100 patients. The only non-constantly represented structure was fissura interlobaris (44%). Hepatic veins proved to be the most variable structures (17%). The results show that segmental anatomy of the liver may be very well represented by ultrasound. The authors discuss the importance of perfect knowledge of anatomy for quality examination.

[Treatment of pyogenic liver abscesses using percutaneous transparietal drainage].

Authors present their own experience with the method of external transparietal drainage of pyogenic hepatic abscesses. It is both effective and available method with minimum complications if performed in time. Mortality rate is much lower than in surgical drainage. Percutaneous drainage of hepatic abscesses depends on the possibility of their diagnostics by means of ultrasonography or computer tomography and access to special instruments.

Congenital heart disease in the adult.

On the basis of literary data and of their own series of 264 adult patients, who were in 1978-1982 subjected to invasive haemodynamic examination for congenital heart disease, 162 patients operated on, and 128 patients followed up for long-term periods after surgical treatment of congenital heart disease in adult age, the authors analyse the causes of late recognition of the disease, operative complications and long-term operative results. It is pointed out that a haemodynamically serious congenital heart disease is indicated for surgical correction even in adult age, and that age itself does not represent a limitation to cardiosurgical intervention. In adult age, it is necessary to anticipate a greater number of complications and a more severe post-operative course, but the long-term results are very good.
