[Assistive devices for tonsillectomy under general anesthesia].

Tonsillectomy may cause many complications. Frequent and one of the most important of them is massive bleeding. Haemorrhage in the region of the inferior pole of tonsilla is peculiarly difficult to subdue. The authors describe two devices of own design for tonsillectomy under general anesthesia. "The junction" as well as "the support" make surgeon work easier. Intervention is also the less time consuming and may be done without aid of an assistant. "The support" seems to be especially recommendable for smaller laryngological departments not equipped with Kleinsasser set of instruments.

[Experimental studies of mechanism and efficiency of sclerosing agents: varicocid and paraffin].

Based on the analyse of publications the authors treated of history and contemporary applications of sclerotherapy. The role, methodics and results of sclerosing therapy among patients with oesophageal varices were also presented. The aim of the study was to examine the mechanism and efficiency of two sclerosing agents which are frequently used in Poland. Examinations were performed on 30 Wistar rats. Their caudal veins were injected with 0.1 ml of Varicocid or paraffin. In the control group the 0.9% solution of NaCl was applicated. Clinical and histologic appraisal were done at 3 weeks postinjection (first or second) of sclerosants. On the base of obtained results the necro-inflammatory properties and considerable higher efficiency of Varicocid were confirmed.

[Investigations of the ototoxicity of dicortinef (ear drops)].

The authors investigated the ototoxic influence of Dicortinef in laboratory animals. Their examinations were performed on 15 guinea pigs (weighing 210-380 g.) after application of this medicine to the fenestra rotunda. The harmful effect of Dicortinef was expressed by the characteristic fall in the microphonic potential (PM) and potential of the acoustic nerve (AP).

[The role of sclerotherapy in the treatment of esophageal varices in children].

The authors presented the actual views and their own results of using sclerotherapy in children with oesophageal varices. Oesophageal varices exist almost every time as a most dangerous complication in patients with portal hypertension. Acute haemorrhage caries a high mortality and the extremely important priority is control of bleeding as soon as possible. Traditional conservative methods of treatment often do not improve long-term survival and portal systematic shunt is rarely possible in patients under the age of 10. Because of it sclerotherapy may be proposed as a treatment of choice for children with oesophageal varices.

[Tracheo-arterial fistula as a complication of tracheotomy].

The authors presented 2 cases of massive bleeding from brachiocephalic artery as a late complication after tracheotomy. In both deadly cases the artery wall was secondary damaged by the tracheal tube. The pathomechanism of this complication origin and significance of its acquaintance was discussed.

[Histological and electron microscopic examinations of laryngeal papilloma in children and adults].

The authors present the results of histologic and electron microscopic investigations of larynx papillomas in 11 children and 8 adults. Comparative estimation showed the characteristic changes for clinical and morphological division of papilloma into adult-type and juvenile one. Detailed morphological analysis in adult-type papilloma either with dysplastic changes or with hyperkeratosis was performed.

[The problem of diagnosing tumors of the nose and paranasal sinuses].

A case of incorrect diagnosis of extensive nasal cavity, maxillary sinus and nasopharynx neoplasm was presented. The imitation of tumor symptoms was due by long lying in nasal cavity foreign body, inflammation of maxillary sinus and adenoiditis. The author underline that over hasty neoplasm diagnosis always exerts an unjustified and destructive psychologic influence on patient and his family.

[Sclerotherapy in the prevention of hemorrhage from esophageal varices in children].

During the years 1984-1987 obliteration of the oesophageal varices was done in 13 children with the portal hypertension. The method of treatment was based on injections of varicocid causing the thrombo-obliterative changes in the blood-vessels. Each of performed interventions (about 70) was successful and complications were never observed. Because of its high effectiveness and absence of harmful effects sclerotherapy is a valuable therapeutic method.
