[Postraumatic thrombosis of the renal artery].

We present two cases of thromboses of the left renal artery out of a total of 74 kidney traumatisms observed up to 1978. In one of them, accompanied by arterial hypertension, the tension readings returned to normal after a nephrectomy. Following a review of the literature, in which we observe the infrequency of this pathology (38 cases compiled by R. Fay and S. Brosman up to 1974), we comment upon the etiopathogeny, clinical characteristics, specific radiological signs and other means of exploration which enable the diagnosis to be reached. We point out the importance of an early diagnosis and the conservative and radical forms of surgery.

[Cysts of the ejaculatory ducts. Diagnosis and clinical course after treatment].

Confusion surrounding diagnosis of central prostate cysts is explained for the rarity of the condition. Deferento-vesiculography is diagnostic and must be performed independently (right-left) for a better anatomical evaluation of the area. The endoscopic images do not allow differential diagnosis from other prostate cysts. Recovery of bearer's fertile ability following endoscopic resection does not result, in our experience, as effective as it could be expected from resolving the obstructive cause.

[Bladder hernia. Report of 4 cases].

Four cases of vesicoscrotal herniation are described. The different etiology and forms of presentation (from an incidental finding to one requiring emergency treatment) of this condition are discussed. Surgical treatment is based on its size, location and coexisting pathology (prostatic hyperplasia, calculus, bladder tumor, etc.).

[Cost-effectiveness comparative study of ceftriaxone verus cefotaxime in the treatment of complicated urinary infections].

Prospective, randomized, multicenter study in 267 patients with complicated urinary infection from 9 hospitals nationwide. Drug treatment was either Ceftriaxone 1 g once daily parenterally or Cefotaxime parenteral 1 g 8 hourly for a minimum of 7 days. Patients were clinically, analytically and microbiologically evaluated before and after treatment to assess the efficacy and tolerance of both drug products. To evaluate treatment cost, we used the price of both drugs and the material required for their administration (syringe and disposable needle). 119 patients were excluded from the cost-efficacy evaluation and 148 remained in the study (75 assigned to treatment with Ceftriaxone and 73 to Cefotaxime). Clinical efficacy of treatment was 93% and 87.6% for Ceftriaxone and Cefotaxime respectively (p > 0.05). Cost per patient was 27,347 pesetas for Ceftriaxone and 34,490 for Cefotaxime (p < 0.05).
