[Early repair of rupture of the posterior urethra in males. Report on 10 cases (author's transl)].

Repair operations were performed in 10 men with recent ruptures of the posterior urethra, between 1972 and 1980. One-stage segmental urethrectomy and end-to-end urethrorrhaphy was performed immediately (5 cases) or deferred to a late date (5 cases), with (2 cases) or without (8 cases) protective cystostomy. The origin of the lesions in these cases is discussed. The results obtained in these 10 patients are compared with those observed in 6 other cases treated urgently by cystostomy, with or without perineal drainage, followed by urethral reconstruction after a period of 2 to 6 months. Healing occurred within a mean period of 27 days in the first group, and 185 days in the second. Urinary fistulae developed in 20 p. cent of the patients in the first group, and 17 p. cent of those in the second group. Urinary continence was good in 100 p. cent of the first and 67 p. cent of the second group, a sterile urine being obtained in 100 p. cent and 83 p. cent of cases respectively. Sexual disorders were reported in 10 p. cent of the first and 67 p. cent of the second group. The authors conclude that urgent immediate or deferred reconstruction should be conducted in recent ruptures of the posterior urethra in men. Micturition urethrography after IVU. and retrograde urethrography, are essential investigations for detecting the lesions. Retrograde urethrography should be conducted with a small quantity (10 ml) of contrast medium, as soon as possible after plastic surgery. The authors employ segmental urethrectomy followed by end-to-end urethrorrhaphy, which has given better results than Solovov-Badenoch's urethroplasty.

[Some technical considerations on partial nephrectomy (author's transl)].

After some considerations on the problems of operation technique which are raised up by partial nephrectomy, the authors review its' indications. After presentation of the clinical experience based on ten cases of partial nephrectomy, carried out during the years 1972-1974, of which 7 were for lithiasis, 2 for renal tuberculosis and one for a solitary renal cyst, the authors advise primary ligature of the segmental vascular pedicle, whenever possible and use of the perinephretic fat to cover over the sectioned surface, as it has strong hemostatic action, good tolerance and that owing to this, nephropexy is carried out.

[2 cases of priapism treated by cavernous body shunts].

The authors present their personal experience in connection with two cases to priapism, one of which was solved by unilateral saphenocavernous anastomosis in a leukemic patient, and the second one by bilateral caverno-spongious anastomosis in a patient with idiopathic priapism. Both interventions had a good outcome. The emergency character is stressed, of this type of intervention, that should b performed bilaterally and followed by anticoagulant treatment.

[Reconsideration of transureteral cutaneous ureterostomy: Y-shaped cutaneous ureterostomy (author's transl)].

After reviewing the history and technique used for transureteral cutaneous ureterostomy, the authors describe 5 cases treated by this method during the 3-year period, 1975--1977. This prodecure has many advantages when compared to the transintestinal cutaneous ureterostomy as described by Bricker, uteterosigmoidoscopy, and "double-barreleed" cutaneous ureterostomy. The authors conclude that transureteral cutaneous ureterostomy should be performed in cases of ureteropyelocalicial distention with renal failure from operable or inoperable bladder cancer, in women with inoperable or recurrent tumors of the genital organs and vesicovaginal, vesicourethrovaginal or vesicorectovaginal fistulae, and in patients with a neurological bladder. They propose that this surgical technique be known as "Y-shaped cutaneous ureterostomy" instead of transureteral cutaneous ureterostomy because of its similarity to the method of Roux for Y-shaped digestive tract anastomoses, and because this new terminology is simpler and describes the operative procedure in a clearer manner.
