摘要:

Six cases of Mycobacterium infection are described. A critical evaluation of the various methods of treatment used is presented. The conclusions are that drugs have no place in the primary treatment of the condition, and that wide surgical excision and partial, thickness skin grafting followed by the application of heat by means of a specially constructed heat cradle are the best form of treatment. Problems associated with surgical management are discussed.

摘要:

A record is given of the first known cases of Bairnsdale ulcer and its early recognition as a clinical entity. The treatment evolved by excision and skin grafting before the final identification of the causative organism is also described.

摘要:

A record is given of the events leading to the discovery, the cultivation, and the animal transmission of Mycobacterium ulcerans, the causative organism of the “Bairnsdale ulcer”, together with a discussion on the possible animal hosts and vectors. It is suggested as a mailer of speculation that the insectivorous bats may be incriminated as the natural hosts, and that bed‐bugs or related bugs, parasitic on bats, may be the ve

摘要:

Subdural empyema is a distinct clinical entity not uncommon in Ceylon. Forty‐seven cases have been analysed. The commonest sources of infection are otitis media and frontal sinusitis. These empyemas are often complicated by cortical thrombophlebitis, meningitis and intracerebral abscesses. The symptomatology is difficult to differentiate clinically from that of other forms of intracranial suppuration. Percutaneous carotid angiography is the investigation of choice. The treatment consists of surgical evacuation of pus combined with correct antibiotic therapy and skilled nursing. Our mortality of 25·5% was due to uncontrollable associated infections, usually the result of late referr

摘要:

Two cases of aorto‐caval fistula resulting from spontaneous rupture of an aortic aneurysm into the inferior vena cava are described. Although both patients showed the classical signs of a pulsatile abdominal mass with a palpable thrill and a continuous murmur, and the site of the communication was the same in both cases, only the first showed obvious signs of a massive arteriovenous fistula, with a collapsing pulse and severe oliguria promptly cured by correction of the fistula. The second patient illustrates the ability of one elderly patient to survive a series of disasters in aneurysm surgery, namely frank rupture of the aneurysm, high output renal failure, caval thrombosis and intraperitoneal suppuratio

摘要:

Sudden revascularization of an ischemic limb may be followed by the onset of the anterior tibial syndrome. Five cases are reported in which this syndrome occurred following successful revascularization, four of them requiring fasciotomy. The “reopening syndrome” may on rare occasions follow revascularization, and the causes and treatment of this phenomenon are discus
