Laparoscopic drainage of lymphocele after renal transplantation.

We describe the successful laparoscopic formation of a peritoneal window for the treatment of a symptomatic, recurrent lymphocele in a 25-year-old man after cadaveric renal transplantation. Because of minimal morbidity, relative ease and safety, this procedure should be strongly considered as a primary form of therapy for recurrent lymphoceles refractory to percutaneous drainage. However, thorough knowledge and experience with laparoscopic techniques are necessary.

A discriminant analysis of severe alcohol consumption among older persons.

A cross-sectional study among older persons (N = 1034) utilized multivariate stepwise discriminate analysis to determine the predictive value of variables affecting alcohol intake. Fifteen per cent of our study sample was classified as severe drinkers. Alcohol consumption before age 40, smoking, male gender and marital status were predictors of severe drinking. In addition, the unimpaired Older Americans Resource and Services (OARS) objective summary ratings for physical status and activities of daily living (ADL) were associated with severe drinking. Assessing the factors that predict alcohol consumption may help to identify initially those persons at possible risk, lending to heuristic and theoretical alcohol prevention policies among the aged.
