ConclusionsReviewing the progress in organ transplantation during the past five years, it appears predictable that the problem of the serious complications which have attended these procedures is well on the way to solution, and that morbidity and mortality rates will soon approach those of other major surgical procedures. When abdominal symptoms or bowel problems occur in kidney transplant patients, the consultant in colonic and rectal diseases should be aware of the problems we have described.

摘要:

SummaryIt is our firm belief that the objections cited by some of our colleagues for not performing coloscopy are without merit. If one prepares for coloscopy by foresight and precaution, with careful attention to detail before and during operation, the rewards justify having the instruments working and ready, the additional operating time, and the low associated morbility.

摘要:

SummaryFifty‐five consecutive patients undergoing colostomy for colonic trauma are reviewed. A complication rate of 18 per cent is reported, with a higher rate of patients with stomal management problems.A new colostomy classification, which simplifies nomenclature and is particularly applicable to the training institution and the military, is recommended.As a result of findings in this series of patients, the divided‐loop colostomy which is sutured to the abdominal wall and skin and well separated from the primary incision and drain sites is recommended for the trauma patient.

摘要:

SummaryNinety‐five consecutive traumatic injuries to the colon and rectum treated during a five‐year period at Charity Hospital in New Orleans have been reviewed. Gunshot wounds accounted for 74 per cent of the colonic injuries in the series. Primary repair, the preferred treatment, was associated with the fewest complications. The most frequent complication was wound infection, and septicemia was the most common cause of death. The overall mortality rate was 10.5 per cent. Two or more organs were injured in each patient who died. No patient with an isolated colonic injury died.

摘要:

SummaryIt has become apparent that patients with ureterosigmoidostomies have an increased susceptibility to tumors of the colon. These may have either gastrointestinal or urologic manifestations. Physicians following such patients must be ever alert for early evidence of these neoplasms.

摘要:

SummaryOvarian metastases are found in 3‐4 per cent of female patients with carcinomas of the colon or rectum. They may be very large, like primary ovarian tumors. Ten women with ovarian metastases from colonic or rectal carcinoma were seen at Ochsner Foundation Hospital over an 11‐year period. In four of these women ovarian metastases were found on physical examination, while in the other six they were found incidentally at surgery or necropsy. None of these tumors histologically resembled the classic Krukenberg tumor; all were hsitologically identifiable as metastases from carcinomas of the large intestine. Surgical resection was done in nine women. All are either dead of, or alive with, residual malignancy.Prophylactic oophorectomy should be considered for all postmenopausal women, and for premenopausal women with obvious ovarian tumors, extensive serosal involvement by the colonic or rectal lesion, or extensive metastases to regional lymph nodes.
