[Gangrenous cystitis. Case report].

A rare case of gangrenous cystitis is described. The questions of the incidence of this pathology are discussed, considering its rareness after the antibiotics age. The etiology of this disease is probably multifactorial and it is never possible to identify a unique cause. The gangrenous cystitis doesn't present with any typical symptomatology, out with urinary troubles common to many urologic diseases. Surgery is often performed in emergency without a preoperative defined diagnosis. Surgical treatment has changed with time from a simple bladder cavity draining to the resection of the necrotized bladder wall. In our case a total cystectomy with uretero-ileocutaneostomy, in two times, was performed. This procedure allowed the patient a good quality of life (1 year of follow-up).

[The drug treatment of postoperative pain].

The study, conducted on 40 patients with pain resulting from "minor" general surgery, for the purpose of evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of ST-679 (administered in a single oral dose of 1200 mg in 20 patients) and to compare them with those of paracetamol (administered in a single oral dose of 1000 mg in 20 patients), demonstrated that the new drug was active on all recorded parameters and superior to the reference drug. The evaluation of the evolution of pain, performed using the Scott-Huskisson visual analog scale, evidenced that the maximum analgesic efficacy of ST-679 is reached after 1 hour and 15 minutes from assumption and remains unaltered until the final observation (6 hours). The paracetamol registers maximum analgesic efficacy after 30 minutes, but does not remain constant for the entire observation period. All the other parameters evaluated (variation in pain intensity, peak of analgesic activity and total remission of pain) are significantly favorable to ST-679. The tolerability of ST-679 was very good and better than the reference drug.

[Mondor syndrome. Etiopathogenesis and case report].

The Authors observed and report a case of Mondor's syndrome in a male. In the attempt to identify the real origin in this peculiar thrombophlebitis they reviewed the recent literature. It is apparently impossible to drawn definitive conclusions from the different studies on this subject. Anyway Mondor's syndrome looks suitable for inclusion in the group of jumping thrombophlebitis. Therefore the real cause of the venous accident should be a pathologic situation next to the venous branch where the thrombophlebitis has broken out.
