[Drainage-dependent continence disorder after deep resection of the anterior rectum].

Anorectal continence following low anterior resection in 37 controlled patients from the University Hospitals of Innsbruck, Department of Surgery, in the years 1970 to 1974 is described. Of these 37 patients, 10% were partially incontinent for from 18 to 24 months. It is pointed out that the partial incontinence of these patients is due to the extensive perirectal-perianal drainage. The low anterior resection can be called continence-saving, if a too extensive perirectal-perianal drainage is avoided and the criteria of the operation are considered.

[Double mitral valve combined with an intermediate type of persistent atrioventricular canal. A contribution to surgical correction (author's transl)].

A case of double mitral valve combined with an intermediate type of atrioventricular canal is reported. After repairing the cleft in the aortic cusp of the mitral valve there resulted a mitral stenosis, which could be corrected by cutting the bridge between the two mitral orifices. In regarding the genesis of double mitral valve it seems possible, that there are two different types of this congenital malformation.

[Thymectomy in myasthenia gravis (author's transl)].

Experiences with 13 thymectomies for myasthenia gravis between 1966-1973 are reported. Incomplete median sternotomy was preferred. Myasthenic or cholinergic respiratory failure was a major complication after surgery. Daily measurements of VC were useful indicators to dedect beginning failures. Results depend on duration of the disease and histological type of lesion. Recommendation of thymectomy at an early stage of the disease is justified.
