[504 implantations of aortic valve prostheses].

The results in 504 patients operated with aortic valve replacement are reported. In 153 patients other associated valvular diseases or complications were present. The mortality in non complicated case was 3%. The long term mortality (1--14 years) was 4%. The results and indications are discussed.

[Radical correction of the tetralogy of Fallot: 122 cases].

In 122 patients with Fallot tetralogy total correction was performed. 18 were previously operated with palliative surgery. The results were the following: hospital mortality: 8,5%; very good or good improvement: 78%; satisfactory in 13,5%.

[Surgery of ventricular aneurysms and akinetic zones].

Operation was performed in 180 patients with post-infarction ventricular aneurysm (12 cases) or akinesia (92 cases). Simultaneously in 2 cases mitral valve replacement was performed and in 2 cases ruptured ventricular septum was treated by patch. The results are reported and discussed.

[Malignant hyperthermia treated with refrigerant venous catheterization].

A cold water circulation heat exchanger metal probe was used in 3 patients to treat severe hyperthermia. The probe was introduced into the caval veins by way of the sephenous vein. In 40' temperature fell from 42 degrees to 37 degrees and the patients were saved. The apparatus is simple and the technique straightforward.

[Akinetic zones of the left ventricle in aortic insufficiency. Treatment].

22 cases of aortic valvular insufficiency treated by prosthesis and in which the acinetic areas of the left ventricle were eliminated at the same time are reported. Only one postoperative death (ventricular fibrillation) was encountered; one after 1 year (emboly as a result of endocarditis) and one as a result of an unknown cause. Emphasis is laid upon the frequency of this associated complication, its seriously negative incidence on ventricular haemodynamics, the need for surgical treatment, and its favourable immediate and long-term results.

[Plastic widening of the aorta associated with implantation of valvular prosthesis].

Widening of the supravalvular aorta by means of a lozenge-shaped dacron patch was performed in 9 cases of stenosis and/or aorta insufficiency. Marked improvement was noted in the 8 patients followed up: the transvalvular gradient was not significant and neither haemolytic anaemia nor hyperhaemolysis were present. This expedient is both useful and indicated in cases where the calibre of the descending aorta is small.
