[Carcinoma of the stomach].
During the period from 1961 to 1976 884 patients with cancer of the stomach were registered and treated at surgical Clinic in Zagreb. From those cases 607 (68,66%) were men and 277 (31,34%) women. The age of patients varied from 50 to 70 years. More of them were pensoners and farmers. From those patients 196 (22,17%) were smokers and 176 (19,9%) alcoholics. All of them had usual symptoms of cancers of the stomach, mainly combined with loss in weight, loss of appetite and gastrointestinal bleeding. Average duration of symptoms before coming to the Clinic was six months. Preoperatively 88 (9,9%) were inoperable. By explorative laparotomy 175 (17,5%) inoperable cases were found. At 261 (29,5%) palliative operations were done. 63 (7,1%) patients refused to be operated. Using different methods 297 (35,5%) patients were radical operated. The most frequent were adenocarcinoma and after them gastric ulcers which became malignant. The most frequent causes of death were peritonitis and pneumonia. 7,3% of radically operated patients survived 5 years.
[Portacaval anastomosis in experimental surgery as an educational method for the young surgeon].
Portacaval anastomosis in experimental surgery, authors used as one kind of education of young surgeons. Over portacaval anastomosis we learned vascular technic and vital anatomy porte hepatis. We recommend this method of education to other young surgeons.

[The role of intravenous digital subtraction angiography in the detection of the cause of cerebral ischemia].
A comparative analysis of two angiography methods applied in two unrelated groups of patients with brain ischemia symptoms is described. The first group of 452 patients suffering from extracranial cerebral artery disease was analyzed by an intravenous digital subtraction angiography (DSA); the second group of 500 patients was subjected to a conventional aortic arch angiography. Research was based on comparative analysis of angiograms as per type and location of morbid changes. In the area of common carotid artery and internal carotid artery the stenosis was considerably more frequently detected by the conventional angiography than by the intravenous DSA, i.e. in 105 (20.0%) as compared to 40 (8.8%) patients, respectively. Similar difference is indicated in a total number of morbid changes in these arteries detected in 248 patients (49.6%) by aortic arch angiography and in 154 (34.1%) patients by intravenous DSA. The dissimilarity is noticed with minor atherosclerotic changes, while medium and major stenoses are detected with equal frequency by both methods. The intravenous DSA more often indicated flexion of carotid artery, and considerably more often the vertebral artery flexion as found in 53 (11.7%) patients analyzed by intravenous DSA compared to 33 (6.6%) patients analyzed by conventional angiography. Advantage of intravenous DSA is less complications and ambulatory performance. The conventional angiography better indicates morbid changes in common carotid artery bifurcation and vertebral artery origin.
