The authors give an account of their experience of peridural anaesthesia in 250 cases at the Centre for traumatological and reparative surgery. They demonstrate the advantages derived from this type of anaesthesia: in elderly subjects manifesting an organic defect, and in emergency cases with "full stomach".
In this work carried out at the Traumatology Centre in Strasbourg, out of 227 patients operated for a fracture situated between the pelvis and the tibial plateau, the authors endeavoured to show a thrombosis of the lower limbs. The means of exploration included in addition to the clinical and biological blood tests an isotopic, rheographic and phlebographic surveillance. The latter three ways of exploration are particularly viewed in this study, during which it was possible to demonstrate 44 p. 100 thrombo-embolic manifestations of which 38 p. 100 were detected only by the isotopic method, the phlebographic check for its part confirming 80 p. 100 of the clinically undeclared cases of thrombosis.
