[The surgical strategy in cases of arterio-venous aneurysms of the posterior fossa. A propos of 3 cases].

Three cases of strictly subtentorial arteriovenous aneurysm (out of 55 intracranial malformations of this kind) are presented, with special reference to surgical tactics and technics: the pros and cons of different positions on the operating table, search for afferent pedicles whose clipping may suffice, necessity of routine use of bipolar coagulation, use of the operating microscope, and continuous intraoperative checking of vital data by the anesthetist. These lesions are operable and should therefore be looked for.

Sexual dysfunction in college men and women.

The author presents data and illustrative excerpts from 1,000 letters relating to health and personal concerns that were sent to his column in a college newspaper. There were 532 letters expressing sexual concerns, 65 percent of which raised questions about anatomy and physiology. A comparison of the distribution of problems of sexual dysfunction in this study with that of an earlier study involving older patients showed very different distributions. The author points out the need for sex counseling and education for young people who are sexually active and discusses the unique problems involved in treating this population.
