[Inguinal hernia repair with the Shouldice method. Our experience].

From 1982 to 1990, in our Surgical General Department, we have replaced the traditional technique of inguinal hernia with Shouldice's method. This choice was treatment of the following considerations: few relapses happen compared to traditional operations.

Hernia, Inguinal

[Diagnostic and therapeutic considerations in early gastric cancer].

A ten-year series of early gastric cancer is reported, stress being laid on the diagnostic and therapeutic problems associated with the condition. The importance of intensified mass screening programmes, particularly in populations at risk, is underlined to enable these potentially dangerous conditions to be treated in time.

Adenocarcinoma

[The inguinal hernia today. Technical notes].

Following a short introduction on Bassini's operation, alternative surgical techniques are discussed: Postempski, Halsted, Mugnai-Ferrari, Anson-McVay, Marcy, Ferguson, Shouldice with their indications, advantages and disadvantages. Personal experience in the surgical treatment of 516 patients suffering from inguinal hernia is then reported and stress is laid on the need for precise anatomic knowledge of the inguinal region and skill in one technique in particular to limit the risk of recurrences.

Adolescent

[Prostaglandins and gastric cancer: a preliminary study].

As high levels of Prostaglandins E2 were observed in several gastric diseases, the Authors determined the PGE2 levels in gastric cancer patients without recurrences, in pre and post-operative period. PGE levels were correlated with cancer progression and their significance as tumoral markers was also assessed.

Adult

[Retroperitoneal neurilemmoma (anatomo-pathologic and clinical considerations)].

After extensively reviewing the literature on primary retroperitoneal tumours, the authors present a case of retroperitoneal neurilemmoma. They stress the rareness of this disease and go on to discuss the related epidemiological, histogenetic and anatomo-pathological problems. Finally, they deal at some length with the symptoms of the disease and the diagnostic strategy they adopt, emphasizing the usefulness of CT and ultrasonic tomography in the study of the retroperitoneal region.
