Experience with the Direx Tripter X-1 shock-wave lithotripter.

The authors give account of the experience they gained with the Direx Tripter X-1 (ESWL) apparatus. In a random material they succeeded to render 81.5% of the patients stone free within three months. They judge the apparatus suitable for in situ treatment of pelvic and ureteric stones and for the monotherapy of staghorn calculi. It is easy to handle, inexpensive to buy and maintain but noisy to operate, moreover the patient has to be anaesthetized. All in all it is highly useful in the treatment of renal lithiasis.

Vacuum therapy in the treatment of erectal impotence.

The authors were the first in Hungary to use vacuum-induced erection in the treatment of erectal dysfunction. Negative pressure was induced by OSBON ERECAID SYSTEM. Erectal impotence was successfully treated with this non-invasive and complications-free method in patients with diabetes and psychic problems. The method was applied first for ameliorating sexual complaints due to virile climacteric and--based on the results--its application is recommended.

[Results of treatment of superficial vesical tumors by transurethral resection alone and transurethral resection followed by an intravesical instillation of Calmette-Guerin bacillus].

Superficial bladder tumors treated at the Henri Mondor Hospital from 1984 through 1988 were analyzed for recurrence and progression using the following prognostic parameters: stage (TNM classification, 1978), grade (G1, G2, G3), size, number of tumors, and tumor malignancy index as defined by the Besançon group. Forty-five patients were treated with transurethral resection alone (TUR group) whereas 30 had TUR followed by the prophylactic instillation of fresh Calmette-Guérin bacillus in the bladder (BCG group). In TUR patients, parameters predictive of progression included grade G3, multiple tumors, stage T1, recurrence within 6 months of TUR, and a tumor malignancy index above 455. None of these criteria were predictive of a response to BCG. Results obtained in the BCG group were comparable to those reported in the literature and confirmed the efficacy of BCG instillations to prevent recurrence and progression of superficial carcinomas of the bladder.

Pre- and postoperative examinations in intestinal tumours of the pelvis.

Pre- and postoperative urological and lower urinary tract urodynamic studies were made in patients operated for intestinal tumours of the pelvis. It was established that urological complications often arise and they often escape detection during the examination or under the conventional surgical care. An examination and a control scheme is recommended for the early detection of the possible complications and for starting an adequate treatment in due time.

Hematospermia.

The appearance of blood in the seminal fluid is an alarming sign, with a rather inconstant origin. The causes of hematospermia are discussed based on a review of the literature and the authors' own experience with 84 patients. The importance of differential diagnosis is emphasized and a diagnostic scheme is presented. Therapeutic opportunities depending on etiology are discussed. It is concluded that although hematospermia is an often self-limiting sign, resolving in a few weeks, all patients should undergo a careful investigation to rule out the presence of malignancy or other significant disease.
