[Correlations between splenoportographic findings and risk of digestive hemorrhage in portal hypertension].

In 102 cases examined by splenoportography (93 cirrhosis with patent splenoportal axis and 9 splenoportal thrombosis without appreciable liver changes), the occurrence of episodes of digestive haemorrhage was statistically correlated with age, sex, type of portal impediment, type of collateral circulation, and the presence or otherwise of ascites, and with portal pressure values measured by splenomanometry. The only statistically significant correlation was that concerning the type of hepatofugal collateral circulation, as digestive haemorrhage proved gradually less frequent in patients with gastro-oesophageal collateral circulation, in those with so-called infraportal collateral circulation and, finally, in those where angiography was unable to demonstrate the presence of any collateral circulation at all.

[Clinical and hormonal evaluation of recurrence of goiter after thyroidectomy].

The incidence and features of goitre recurrences were investigated in a sample population of patients operated at the University of Turin Endocrine Surgery Centre. The following parameters were examined: sex, age, familial history of goitre, number of pregnancies, T3 and T4 levels, and TSH levels. Attention is drawn to the finding of significantly higher TSH values in the patients operated for recurrent goitre than in a series of persons free of recurrences after they had been operated on for goitre. Other workers have made the same observation, which is therefore regarded as a pointer to the correct interpretation of the recurrence of goitre.

[Appendectomy and colo-rectal carcinoma. Clinico-statistical and experimental studies].

A clinico-statistical investigation has been carried out with a view to establishing whether or not there is any correlation between appendicectomy and onset of colorectal cancer. The analysis showed that the frequencies of appendicectomy in the sample studied and in the control sample were not statistically different. On the other hand, it was observed that in patients suffering from colorectal carcinoma, the age at which appendicectomy was performed is is greater than in control subjects, with a constant mean interval in males and females (17 years). Experimental research on appendicectomized rats confirmed that the incidence of clinically induced tumours is no greater than that observed in control animals.
