Doppler information pertaining to the intrapartum period.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the use of color-Doppler velocimetry during the labor. 325 intrapartal measurements of the umbilical artery, fetal aorta, middle cerebral artery and arcuate arteries were performed in a group of 105 patients. The resistance index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) were measured. During the active labor the RI and PI of the umbilical artery remained unchanged. The impedance in arcuate arteries have increased (p < 0.05). The RI and PI of the middle cerebral artery showed non significantly increased mean values when compared with the corresponding values during pregnancy. But, a short term, transitory decreased impedance is registered during the decrement slope of contraction. Since fetal outcome was normal in all newborns, these changes are considered as physiologic.

[Experience of the surgical service and surgeons at the 1st Surgical Clinical Center in Belgrade in the primary care of abdominal war injuries 1991-1992].

During the recent (1991/92) war on the territory of the former Yugoslavia, 12 of our surgeons participated in the treating of war abdominal injuries, on 8 localities with the various characteristics of combat. Treating all injuries, with adequate evidence and documentation, the general experience of all participants of our team was that abdominal injuries range from 0-12% depending on the the intensity of combat, with the mean percentage of 5.43% while combined injuries approximate 50% with the most common injuries of extremities (24%). The number of laparotomies was 65. The most common cause of abdominal injuries were bullets (75%) except in the localities with heavy combat where the explosive and bullet woundings were equally observed. The blast injuries were recorded in 3%. The most common injured organs were large (29.5%), small intestine (23.46%) liver, stomach and spleen subsequently. The severity of injury and mortality depends mostly of the number of injured organs, and multiorgan lesions were systematically observed (1.89 of injured organs SD 0.96). The total hospital mortality was 6.15% (4 cases: 2 "in tabula" and 2 later) due to multiorgan injuries with severe shock and bleeding. To achieve better results, early transportation to a place where operation could be made is necessary, with the effective first aid and good organisation of the initial management and triage. The diagnosis must be fast and effective, decision quick and the operation must deal with all the injuries primary, by the most safe surgical procedure, with the exposition of external wound.

[Recurrent varices after surgical treatment].

Authors showed 240 patients with post-surgical, recidive varices. The cause of these varices were: perforators incompetentions, bad safeno-femoral deconnection, non extirpated collateral veins etc. Diagnosis of these complications is based upon Doppler and phlebographic examinations. Surgical treatment is based upon pathophysiological and pathoanatomic substrate (extirpation varices, subfascial ligature or discision perforators, etc).

[Local tissue changes in venous ulcers of the leg].

Authors investigated anaerobic metabolites (lactate, pyruvate), gas analyzes, pathohistological changes (light and electron microsc.) and regulatory agents in the local blood of venous ulcers. The cause of anaerobic disturbance is hypoxia and hypercapnia (hypostatic ulcers) and pathologic vasodilatation and arteriolo-venules shunts (postthrombotic ulcers). Pericapillary fibrin deposition aggravate tissue necrosis and destructions.

[Intra-abdominal hemorrhage in splenic injuries].

The authors present a series of 36 patients operated on for severe intraabdominal bleeding due to spleen trauma. Patients were treated from 02. December 1987 till 30. June 1988 in Emergency Center-Surgical Clinic-University Clinical Center Belgrade (Institute of digestive pathology). The standard operative procedure has been removal because splenic salvage is unreasonable if there is ungoing bleeding and multiple associated injuries. Splenectomy was performed in 32 (88 percent). Overall mortality rate was 9%. Authors want to stress out the role of team in successful treatment of polytraumatized patients.
