[First clinical results using a pulsed dye laser Rhodamine 590 lithotripter in treatment of ureteral calculi].

A collaborative study about a pulsed dye laser Rhodamin 590 was undergone, 2 years ago, between the laser application center of EPFL and both urological departments of the university of Geneva and the university of Lausanne. First clinical results are presented. Ten patients have been treated for various ureteral stones, mainly calcium oxalate stones. Laser fragmentation was successful in seven cases. No serious complication was noted. Fragmentation efficiency seems better with a 320 microns fiber than with a 200 microns fiber.

Placebo-controlled double-blind study in human benign obstructive prostatic hypertrophy with flutamide.

A double placebo-controlled study using the anti-androgen non-steroidal compound Flutamide in 32 patients with benign enlargement of the prostate is reported. A statistical analysis of the results showed no difference between the group treated with Flutamide and the group receiving the placebo, except in as far as 'the size' of the prostate was concerned. We observed a significant reduction of the latter in patients receiving Flutamide. The different problems produced by the choice and the measure of parameters in this type of investigation have been discussed.
