The investigation of cellular and humoral immune reactivity in patients with tumours of the bladder.

The authors investigated the cellular immune reactivity by measuring the lymphocyte blast transformation, immune globulins and some glycoproteins in the sera of patients with papilloma and carcinoma of the bladder. They found a change in the cellular immune reactivity, but none in immune globulin concentration. Among the glycoproteins the acute phase reactant proteins changed significantly.

[Hemostasis in transvesical prostatectomy with a modified U-shaped needle].

In transvesical prostatectomy haemostasis was achieved by the application of a modified U-shaped needle. The method was applied in 34 patients. It is suggested that the method can advantageously be applied when bleeding starts not from the loge-edge, but from the stump of the urethra or from the base of the loge. The bladder was closed by introduction of a balloon catheter and an epicystomic drain. Though the new method ensures additional advantages, it does not solve all the problems arising in connection with prostatectomies.

Diagnosis and treatment of adult polycystic kidney disease.

The methods applicable to the diagnosis of polycystic kidney disease are reviewed. By assessing the clinical data of 314 patients suffering from adult polycystic kidney disease who had been treated in the 30 years between 1950 and 1979, the importance of conservative therapy and nephrological care is emphasized. The significance of hemodialysis in therapy and the special circumstances of transplantation are discussed. The indication of surgical treatment can be extended in complication-free cases.

Ultrasonic measurement of residual urine: a method requiring no catheter.

Residual urine was measured with the two-dimensional and the gray-scale equipments (Kretz-Technik) in 26 cases each. The results were checked by catheterization. The difference between the ultrasonographic and the catheter values was 20 to 40 ml for the two-dimensional, but only 5 to 10 ml for the gray-scale apparatus. Ultrasonography is regarded as a reliable and entirely harmless procedure, suited for the measurement of residual urine.

Study of hydroxyproline excretion in patients with prostatic cancer.

Urinary hydroxproline concentrations were measured in 36 prostatic cancer patients. Metastases were ruled out by radiography in 24, and confirmed in 12 cases.14 patients with no malignant disease served as controls. In patients with no metastases excretion was similar to that in the controls, in some of them it was higher. In the patients with higher values the studies were repeated six months later: deposits were found in all cases but one. In the group in which deposits had been present at the outset the values of the untreated patients were significantly higher than in the controls, whereas in the treated patients no consistent values were found.

[Transurethral resection].

In five years 938 transurethral resections were performed in the Department of Urology of Semmelweis University Medical School. The indications were in 483 cases tumours of the bladder, in 179 adenoma of the prostate and in 182 cancer of the prostate; the indications of the remaining cases were miscellaneous. The indications, most important surgical parameters, postoperative complications and treatment of transurethral resections are discussed from the authors' point of view. The results prove the advantages of transurethral resection and confirm its importance as a basic surgical intervention in urological practice.
