[Minor pancreatitis after a Billroth II gastric resection for gastroduodenal ulcer].

Pancreatic complications arising after 117 Billroth II gastric resections carried out between 1976 and 1980 are evaluated. Changes in blood and urinary amylase were noted in 35% of cases. A distinction is drawn between minor forms (MPOP), and major forms (APOP), with an incidence of 34% and 1% respectively. Lastly, the question of aetiopathogenesis is discussed, with particular reference to the causal factors observed on each occasion.

[Dehiscence of anastomosis in surgery of the colon. Causes and prevention].

150 operations on the large intestine performed in 1976-81 are presented with the percentage of dehiscences following surgery. In considering the problem of fistulas arising on the colonic sutures, the more frequent aetiopathogenetic factors are examined. The percentages reported are compared with those produced by the best medical schools. Curves recommended in recent literature are also reported.

[Delayed intestinal cannulation in the postoperative period].

550 patients given abdominal or extra-abdominal surgery in the first six months of 1980 were examined to provide data on the incidence of delayed postoperative canalisation. Both general (sex, age, physical constitution) and surgical (extent of surgery, whether the peritoneal sac was opened) factors were considered. The data collected provide information on the prophylaxis and therapy of delayed postoperative canalisation.

[Protective colostomy in surgery of the left colon].

2 groups of patients were given anterior rectal resections, one of the groups also receiving protective colostomy. Results show the usefulness of protective colostomy, not so much because it reduces the incidence of anastomotic dehiscence as because it minimizes the possible consequences of any such dehiscence.

[Postoperative pneumoperitoneum. Incidence, significance, duration].

The phenomenon of post-operative pneumoperitoneum is considered and its formation modalities, incidence, site and duration evaluated. The phenomenon is related to the constitution of the patient and the extent of the operation performed. Differences between post-operative and perforation forms are pointed out.
