[Partial spleen resection using a stapler].

At emergency laparotomy after a fall bleeding from injuries to the upper pole and from lacerations involving the hilum of the spleen were found in a 2 1/2-year-old girl. Partial splenectomy using a linear stapler allowed preservation of the lower pole with intact vessels. Observed peroperatively for 10 minutes, the splenic remnant retrained a macroscopically normal appearance. Blood transfusion was avoided and drainage postoperatively comprised no more than 25 ml serosanguineous fluid. Provided intact splenic capsule can be used for the line of resection, partial splenectomy using a linear stapler seems to be a safe method.

Doctors' requirements for reproducibility of diagnostic information.

Two radiologists independently assessed 100 leg vein phlebograms for the presence or absence of deep venous thrombosis. In a subsequent questionnaire, 66 physicians were asked to state the level of agreement they would require to use conventional phlebography in their diagnostic decisions, and whether they would reduce their requirements if the phlebographic technique were made less painful and less expensive. The responses indicated physicians' requirements for reproducibility of a well-known routine diagnostic method may be unrealistic, and that physicians do not consider the inconvenience of an examination to the patient or its cost in setting their requirements for diagnostic precision.
