[Gunshot and explosion injuries of the hand].

The problem of hand injuries from bullets and explosives is covered in this paper by the example of three cases. The recommendation is made to remove only easily accessible projectiles. The damage caused by the intervention must not be larger than that caused by the bullet injury. Essential measures should include immediate wound toilet with removal of devitalised tissue, primary osteosynthesis, preferentially with minifixateur externe, coverage of exposed tendons, nerves, bones, and joints, splitting of the ligamentum carpi volare, perioperative administration of antibiotics, and secondary skin suture. Definite treatment should be left to a centre of hand surgery.

[Intralobar and extralobar lung separations].

It is reported on six cases of intralobar and extralobar separation on lung. Characteristical for both forms of malformation is a defective joining to the normal bronchus and the origin of artery vessel from aorta. Lobectomia is necessary in case of chronic inflammation or of a greater shunt volume. References to medical certification or professional ability are given.

[Differential diagnosis of round lung lesions--isolated tumor-like amyloidosis].

One case of isolated tumorlike amyloidosis of the lung is reported. The patient was found by mass radiographic survey. Before operation the histological diagnosis was unknown. The specimen of lung from thoracotomia showed tumorlike amyloidosis and independent from amyloidosis sarcoid granulomatosis of uncertain cause. Isolated tumorlike amyloidosis of the lung is a very rear diagnosis. Thus diagnosis before operation is very difficult. In case of circular focus of undetermined etiology surgical intervention is indicated to avoid delayed resection of bronchial carcinoma.

[A rare case illustrating the persistence of the oviduct in a man with simultaneous transverse testicular dystopia and uterine hernia].

A twenty-years-old man is described who had to undergo an operation because of persisting the oviduct connected with 'dystopia testis transversa et hernia uteri'. All the examinations led to the results of a male sex. The rudimentary uterus situated in the left scrotal cavity was extirpated and the both testicles were placed into the corresponding scrotal cavities. The patient declared that he is able to having a normal sexual life.

[Thoracical circular focus opacities--a problem of differential diagnostics (author's transl)].

Reported on tumourlike circular focus opacities in the thoracic X-ray photogramms of 34 patients, 27 of them were discovered by mass x-ray surveys. They include: 13 organoid tumours, 1 bronchial adenoma, 2 mucodermoid, 1 cystic adenocarcinoma of bronchus, 1 fibroma, 1 reticulo-cytoma, 1 bronchial papilloma, 7 cystic tumours, partially located in the mediastinum, 3 intrapulmonary malformations of blood vessels, 1 mediastinal neurinoma, and 3 cases with suspicion of organoid tumours. 29 patients had to undergo an operation. Finally the authors give a review of literature of indication for surgical treatment, and they represent guidelines for the medical expert assessment fitness for the National Service.
