[Intraoperative cholangiography. Considerations on a special method].

Abstract

The Authors report their experience in the field of transcistic peroperating colangiography performed by the use of polythene cannulae and discuss the advantages of this procedure based on the results of more than 350 cases. The simplicity of the procedure, its quick employment and-most of all-its harmlessness in comparison to other techniques is underlined.

Immune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia resulting from preceding exposure to heparin catheter flushes.

Immune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a life-threatening adverse effect of heparin. It can result from any type of heparin exposure and by any route of administration; however only a few cases are reported after exposures to small quantities of heparin from catheter flushes. The major clinical problem associated with HIT is thrombosis. Early detection and institution of alternative, non-heparin anticoagulation are important. We report a patient with HIT associated with use of therapeutic-dose unfractionated heparin in whom immune sensitization to heparin was triggered by two 500-unit exposure to UFH associated with intravascular catheter flushing for antineoplastic chemotherapy in a patient with colon adenocarcinoma.
