The authors describe the operation on coccygeal fistule by a less usually applied plasty using a transposition lobe according to Limberg. Advantages of this solution are documented in a small group of patients.
The authors present an account of their experience with surgery of inguinal and ventral hernias using synthetic material and Lichtenstein's or Gallie's method. The group of 133 patients comprises 108 patients with hernia in the area of the inguinal canal operated by Lichtenstein's plastic operation and 25 patients with a ventral hernia operated by Gallie's method. The author mentions the number of complications and relapses in the group. The advantage of these methods is according to the author the small number of relapses, relatively easy surgical technique and easy postoperative course which in inguinal hernias makes it possible to use local anaesthesia and perform the operation in the out-patient department.
