[Responsibility of the left renal vein and inferior vena cava in certain cases of myelitis and syringomyelia. Value of ligation of the venous reno-spinal trunk. Apropos of 30 cases].

Certain diffuse forms of myelitis may be due to raised intra-spinal venous pressure resulting in veritable "varicose veins of the spinal cord". The origin of this increased pressure is often multifactorial, but may be due to venous reflux of blood from the left kidney into the intraspinal plexuses via the reno-spinal trunk. Ligation of this trunk results in a considerable and often complete improvement in the neurological syndrome. This operation was performed for the first time by our team in 1973 and since then has been successfully performed on 30 occasions for 21 cases of myelopathy and 9 cases of syringomyelia.

[Bladder sphincter disorders in multiple sclerosis: symptomatology and evolution. 100 cases].

The semiology and evolution of vesicosphincteral disorders have been studied in a series of 100 cases of multiple sclerosis. All the patients underwent a complete checkup and were followed over a period of 6 years. Mictional problems appear within the first five years in 60 p. cent of cases. When they occur later on, they tend to follow the evolution of the disease on their own. There exist regular correlations between the gravity of the motor and sphincteral handicap, and between the size of the postmictional residue (over 20 p. cent of the miction), the time elapsing since the onset of the mictional disorders, and the appearance of uronephrological complications.
