Surgical management of extracranial carotid artery aneurysms.

Between 1982 and 1991 we performed eight operations on seven patients with carotid artery aneurysms. Their mean age was 52.8 years (range: 20-67 years). Five aneurysms were atherosclerotic, one was associated with Marfan's syndrome, and two were pseudoaneurysms, one occurring after Dacron patch angioplasty and the other due to tuberculosis. Seven aneurysms were treated electively; one patient underwent an emergency surgical procedure. In one case, the internal carotid artery was ligated. Seven operations were reconstructive. No intraluminal shunt was used. No perioperative deaths occurred. Regressive hemiparesis and ipsilateral Horner's syndrome developed in one patient. The follow-up period ranged from six months to nine and a half years. One patient died of myocardial infarction three months after surgery.

[Preservation and relocation of the ovaries in an experiment on female dogs and the initial experience in radical hysterectomy in women].

During an experiment in bitches, the ovaries were placed sub-peritoneally beneath the skin of the abdominal wall preserving the infundibulo-pelvic ligament. A year later a relaparotomy was performed. No alterations were evidenced in the ovaries placed either sub-peritoneally of beneath the skin. In 7 patients of less than 36 years of age, during radical hysterectomy performed for cervical carcinoma the ovaries were placed intraperitoneally at the level of the lower kidney pole, preserving the vascularisation of the infundibulo-pelvic ligament. In one patient a cystic degeneration occurred on the right side, while the ultrasound control did not reveal any pathology in the rest of the patients. A year later the total urine estrogen levels were within normal ranges.
