[Comparison of the value of ERCP, angiography and scintigraphy in pancreatic diseases].

The endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography, angiography and scintigraphy have a different value in the diagnostics of chronic pancreatitis and carcinoma of the pancreas. The scintigraphy of pancreas has the lowest value. It should not alone be the basis for making the diagnosis or planning the treatment. In chronic pancreatitis the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography has precedence of angiography. The chronic pancreatitis may angiographically be recognised only in the late phase. However, the angiography can give valuable references to the planning of the operation. At a suspicion of the pancreas malignoma the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography and the angiography have nearly the same value in the plan of diagnostics and they both should be performed.

[Gastric motility and selective proximal vagotomy (SPV)].

In the era of selective vagotomy the gastric motility is increasingly important. Measuring methods are demonstrated as to electromyography, intraluminal pressure measuring, measuring of emptying using isotope labeled food, and serial X-ray technique with amplifier photography. Measurings were performed in 12 patients, before and 4 months after selective proximal vagotomy. The bioelectric gastric activity is hardly influenced by selective proximal vagotomy. Enhanced antral peristalsis (tonic and peristaltic contraction) and delayed emptying are observed in cases without pyloroplasty. The authors therefore recommend that preoperative examination of motility in combination with intraoperative findings should indicate the pyloroplasty.

[Utilization and effectiveness of radiological study methods in the diagnosis of adrenal diseases].

In recent years the construction and increase of sensitiveness of clinical and biochemical test methods resulted in an essential improvement of the functional diagnostics of adrenal diseases. For the objectivation of the findings and for the preoperative localisation radio-morphological, nuclear-medical and sonographic investigation methods are used. The greatest certainty in the diagnostics also of relatively small changes of the adrenal glands is at present achieved by means of the selective, retrograde venography of the adrenal glands in connection with a selective withdrawal of venous blood for the analysis of hormones. The most essential field of indication for this investigation technique are overfunctions of the adrenal cortex as well as hormone-active and hormone-inactive tumorous (benign and malignant) adrenal processes.

[Alterations of abdominal vascularization (especially of the pancreas) after gastric resection (author's transl)].

Completing former examinations the paper deals with the influence of different methods of gastric operation on abdominal vascularization. Typical alterations found by selective coeliac and mesenteric angiography are demonstrated. They include deficiency of arteries, changes in calibre and in the course of the great vessels, alteration of the vascularization of the head of the pancreas. It becomes evident, that the various effects are subject to preoperative anatomical situation and different operative methods.
