Treatment of the ruptured abdominal aorta.

Prompt, well-conceived surgical intervention during the critical early minutes after rupture of the abdominal aorta is capable of increasing the salvage of this not uncommon emergency. The demanding intraoperative and postoperative complications must be anticipated and coped with effectively if the present plateau of survival is to be improved. Alternative technical approaches in controlling exsanguinating aortic blood flow are available and are worthwhile additions to the armamentarium of the surgeon. The advantages of the transthoracic approach for control of hemorrhage are emphasized and should be resorted to in selected patients.

Spontaneous regression of cancer evaluated by computerized data.

Where immunologic intergrity wanes, clinicians observe a greatly increased incidence of neoplasia. Factors in this phenomenon are reviewed. With complete and detailed recorded data on patients who have exhibited spontaneous regression of cancer, a systematic data-reduction approach becomes a practical reality, without the inherent handicaps of missing details in patient histories or anecdotal and often conjectural observations. Presented here is the plea for detailed recording of complete histories of all carcinoma patients who exhibit the phenomenon of spontaneous regression. Physicans of several decades ago generally considered as unrelated much data deemed important to us today.
