摘要:

AbstractClinical, radiological, and scintigraphic methods were used to assess the response of 30 patients undergoing treatment for advanced mammary cancer. Scintigraphy provided more information than radiology in 13 patients. In 2 patients scintigraphy indicated that sclerotic metastases which had not altered radiologically following treatment were probably ‘healing’. In another 4 patients who developed apparently ‘new’ sclerotic metastases on serial radiographs the scintigrams indicated that these lesions probably represented ‘healing’ of lesions which had been too small for identification on the original

摘要:

AbstractThree cases of carcinoma of aberrant breast tissue are described and the literature is briefly reviewed. It is suggested that subcutaneous nodules of uncertain origin around the periphery of the breast should be viewed with suspicion and treated by early excision.

摘要:

AbstractFifteen cases of glomus tumour are recorded. Twelve patients presented with a solitary limb lesion. One patient had a glomus arising in a pilonidal sinus. Two members of one family had multiple lesions.Complete surgical removal is curative, and malignancy is not a hazard. It is important to make a preoperative diagnosis, so that at operation a capsule can be looked for carefully. If no capsule is found anen blocexcision is imperative.It is suggested that pain may sometimes be initiated by trauma, by thrombosis, or by the vascular congestion associated with menstruation and pregnancy.

摘要:

AbstractAmbient temperatures of 29°C. had no effect on the nitrogen balance after elective abdominal surgery in 15 well‐nourished men compared with 29 similar patients nursed at 24°C. The catabolic response as measured by nitrogen balance is small following operation of moderate severity and can be abolished by an increased intake of nitrogen and calor

AbstractIn a series of 349 operations a single dose of 500 mg. of ampicillin was given immediately preoperatively to 164 patients selected at random. There was no significant reduction in the wound‐infection rate in cases given ampicillin compared with the control

摘要:

AbstractA modified technique of colostomy is described which avoids the disadvantages of the more widely used technique employing a glass rod and rubber tube. The use of a rubber drain, instead of a glass rod, which is brought out through two small stab incisions allows the immediate fitting of a bag, thus avoiding contamination of the main incision.

摘要:

AbstractThe accidental intra‐arterial injection of the commonly used sclerosant sodium tetradecyl sulphate (S.T.D.) 3 per cent during the treatment of varicose veins can affect seriously the blood‐supply to the limb, and gangrene may follow.Intra‐arterial injection of S.T.D. into the limb arteries of dogs chemically disintegrates the blood in the slow‐moving stream of the capillaries and converts it into a thick sludge which obstructs the circulation locally, resulting in necrosis of the ex

摘要:

AbstractA case of giant hydronephrosis occurring in a solitary crossed ectopic kidney is presented. This is the seventeenth instance of this renal anomaly, and the first reported in association with a giant hydronephrosis. The diagnosis is discussed, and attention is drawn to the high incidence of genital defects and pathological change associated with solitary ectopic kidneys.

摘要:

AbstractThe effect of noxytiolin on the viability of human tumour cells (HeLa) in monolayer culture was determined by vital staining, impairment of plating efficiency, and measurement of concentrations causing inhibition of growth. Concentrations of more than 0.0025 per cent cause significant inhibition of growth. This is much lower than its bacteriostatic concentration, suggesting that its bacteriostatic effect is non‐specifi

摘要:

AbstractFive cases of perianal infection caused by nonclostridial gas‐producing organisms are reported. Four were males in their sixth decade, 2 of whom were diabetics, and the fifth was a female in her third decade. Two cases died, and the severity of these infections is emphasized. The diagnosis and treatment of non‐clostridial gas‐producing infections are disc
