SUMMARYThe light and electron microscope appearances of biopsies from five cadaveric renal homotransplants taken at the end of the operation and one post–operative biopsy are described. Reference is also made to other cadaveric homotransplants and to three autotransplanted dog kidneys. The appearance of the operative biopsies has given some guide to the subsequent function of the cadaveric transplant

SUMMARYFive cases are described in which calcification apparently outlining the wall of a cyst occurred in renal carcinomata. The relative frequency with which this is found in malignant lesions of the kidney is emphasised.

摘要:

SUMMARYA case of a very large traumatic haematoma of the kidney is described together with its sequelae, treatment, and after–care. It cannot be too strongly stressed that a careful follow–up should be continued indefinitely in any case of renal injury; and should include serial renal studies by conventional X–rays, by intravenous pyelography and if necessary by retrograde pyelo

摘要:

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONSObservations on the effects of various factors influencing the efficiency of isolation ofM. tuberculosisfrom tuberculous urine have been made on a series of 8, 761 such specimens submitted for laboratory examination over a period of twelve years. These observations have led to the following conclusions:—‐1. Guinea–pig inoculation gives a higher number of positive results than artificial culture.2. Both guinea–pig inoculation and artificial culture must be used otherwise a significant number of urines containingM. tuberculosiswill give a negative result.3. Even if both methods are used, only about one–third of urine specimens from patients with active genito–urinary tuberculosis will give positive isolations ofM. tuberculosis.4. Laboratory diagnosis can be improved by examining three consecutive early–morning specimens, but even so, only about half of the cases of active genito–urinary tuberculosis will reveal a positive urine.5. Membrane filtration and artificial culture give slightly better results than the culture of centrifuged deposits. The addition of membrane filtration as a third method of isolation ofM. tuberculosisis technically not easy, but produces a small number of positive results in specimens negative by the other two methods.6. Increasing the number of culture media slopes improves the results of artificial cultural methods.7. Variations in centrifuge speeds and the use of American Trudeau Society media instead of Lowenstein–Jensen media did not significantly influence the results. Commercially prepared Lowenstein–Jensen media gave results as good as the medium prepared in the laboratory.8. A smaller proportion of positiveM. tuberculosisisolations were obtained from specimens treated for forty minutes with two per cent, sodium hydroxide than from specimens treated for twenty minutes. The difference, however, is not statistically significant.9. A normal urinary deposit does not exclude the possibility of isolatingM. tuberculosisfrom the specimen although the chances are greater in specimens of urine which conta

摘要:

SUMMARYAlbright suggested that “idiopathic hypercalciuria” may be due to staphylococcal pyelonephritis. In order to test this hypothesis experimental pyelonephritis was induced in rabbits by the intravenous injection of staphylococci and their urinary calcium excretion was studied for periods of up to six months afterwards. The pyelonephritic rabbits did not excrete more calcium in their urine than normal and they did not excrete more calcium than a group of control rabbits. It is concluded that staphylococcal pyelonephritis does not cause hypercalciuria in the rab

摘要:

SUMMARYThree cases of anuria due to ureteric obstruction by blood clot are described. These illustrate the importance of cystoscopy and ureteric catheterisation for both diagnosis and treatment in cases of anuria. Complete anuria is nearly always of obstructive origin. When ureteric catheter irrigation fails to clear the obstruction, there is a good case for ureterostomy. In known cases of renal papillary necrosis with obstruction, lavage for seven to ten days with solutions may be required (Opitet al, 1962). We would consider trying this in any future similar cases before resorting to ureterostomy.
