摘要:

A series of 68 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to the Royal North Shore Hospital of Sydney in a three‐year period is discussed. An ætiological diagnosis was made in 68% of these. There were three cases associated with a parathyroid adenoma and a 10% incidence of hæmorrhagic pancreatitis, and pseudocysts occurred in 6%. There was no mortality in the 22 patients who underwent laparotomy. The ætiological mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis are revi

摘要:

A 12‐year review has been made of 114 eases of congenital dislocation of the hip joint in children treated in one institution. The general plan of treatment for all cases was similar and patterned on the practice of Scott and Somerville of Oxford. Ninety‐seven hip joints in 61 patients were re‐examined clinically and radiologically, and the results are ana

摘要:

Perhaps for the first time, a surgeon as distinct from a radiologist makes in this review an assessment of the value of mammography to a surgeon. The experience gained in a review of 300 cases of breast pathology at the Royal Adelaide Hospital is presented. The detection of occult carcinoma is discussed. The limitations and dangers of mammography are emphasized.

摘要:

This is a report of a small series of cases of primary carcinoma of the renal pelvis and ureter, with particular reference to diagnosis of these conditions by cytological examination of the urine. The causes of failure of detection and the advantages of using this method are discussed, and the cytological and histological diagnoses are compared.

摘要:

Last year we reported a retrospective review of 25 patients treated for vcsico‐colic fistula due to diverticulitis. Further cases occurring during the last two years have now been added, and the symptomology, investigation, treatment and results have been consolidated. As a result of this additional experience a classification for the condition is proposed, which it is hoped will provide a guide to the surgical managemen

摘要:

A case of achalasia of the cardia in a boy aged three months is described. This is the youngest case on record of a successful result following a modified Heller's operation in an infant. A biopsy specimen of the œsophageal muscle did not show any abnormalities in the myenteric plexus. These findings are discussed in the light of present concepts of the disease. The safety and reliability of surgery in these young infants are emphasised, making it the treatment of choice in pædiatric achalasi

摘要:

Herniation of small bowel through defects in the gastro‐intestinal mesentery is a rare cause of acute bowel obstruction. Its possible presence must be borne in mind if the clinical condition of the patient suggests bowel obstruction, despite the absence of external herniæ and in the absence of any history of previous abdominal surgery. Early operation is essential, and three cases of the condition are now reported. The relevant literature is review

摘要:

A progress report is given of a patient who had a lingual thyroid treated by excision and transplantation in 1956, when she was 11 years old. The behaviour of the thyroid transplant over 15 years is described, together with the history of two children born to the patient during this period.

A 57‐year‐old man had a resection performed of a pharyngeal pouch, which was complicated by a squamous‐cell carcinoma. There is no evidence of recurrence five years later. The clinical and radiological features of this condition are briefly disc

摘要:

Hæmangiopericytoma, first described by Stout and Murray in 1942, is a rare vascular tumour, related to the glomus tumour, in which the proliferating cell is the pericyte of Zimmerman, situated in the capillary wall outside the reliculin sheath. This position distinguishes the pericyte from endothelial cells in the capillary wall. Hæmangiopericytoma lacks the organoid formation of the glomus tumour. In accordance with its tissue of origin, the tumour may occur in widespread parts of the body. However, it is most commonly found in the musculo‐skeletal system and skin. Fewer than 10 cases have been reported in the nasal cavity, and the following case is reported because of its rarity in this s
