[Reconstructive microsurgery].

Since Microsurgery was born, it has been employed in different surgical fields offering more recently good chances even in sterility.

[Chronic periaortitis].

The authors, o the basis of a retrospective analysis of a series of 13 cases of chronic periaortitis, after a review of the literature about the subject, discuss about the most recent theories about pathogenesis, pathological anatomy, diagnosis and treatment of this condition. At first the authors stress the importance of adopting the term chronic periaortitis to describe any idiopathic fibrotic retroperitoneal process, as a consequence of the well established relationship between the atherosclerotic abdominal aorta an the development of this condition. Histological, immunohistochemical and immunological studies, consented to clarify the pathogenesis o the lesion. CT or MRI currently makes the diagnosis but histological confirmation is desiderable. Surgical therapy plays still a fundamental role in the management of chronic periaortitis, but the use of immunosuppressive drugs is to be considered extremely promising.

[Male infertility due to varicocele: their diagnosis and treatment. Our experience].

The Authors have examined, over a period of two years, 110 patients presenting with varicocele and infertility. Varicocele has an incidence of 40% in male sterility, causing oligozoospermia and asthenospermia. Patients first underwent non-invasive tests such as Doppler and echo-Doppler tests. According to the Authors experience, Doppler speedometry is decisive for the diagnosis of both idiopathic and subclinical varicocele, for the post-operative control of microsurgical anastomosis, and for the intra-operative detection of accessory spermatic veins. The surgical technique used by the Authors is the modified Palomo technique, but other techniques are investigated as well. Post-operative results, concerning both spermiogram and relapses are also evaluated.
