Pseudomyxoma peritonei.

Since it closely resembles widely metastatic intra-abdominal cancer, pseudomyxoma peritonei should always be thought of in cases in which apparently hopeless malignant disease appears to be present. The disease is not often malignant and surgical treatment is palliative in many cases and curative in some. Therapy consists of the removal of the appendix in males and of the appendix and ovaries in females.

Progressive adhesive arachnoiditis following spinal anesthesia.

Neurological complications-some of them serious-sometimes occur following spinal anesthesia. In the majority of the relatively few cases in which they occur, they are caused by factors which can be obviated.Rigid adherence to defined safeguards will reduce the incidence of complications and overcome most of the objections to the procedure.
