[New models of forceps for bipolar coagulation].

Operations on the brain require an optimum coagulation effect to be produced by forceps for bipolar coagulation. New forceps models are described in which the elimination of heat from the operating ends is considerably improved by making the whole forceps of copper and providing intermittent supply of high-frequency current to it. As a result the coagulation effect is distinguished by slight necrosis of the tissues adjoining the ends of the forceps and no sticking of these tissues to these ends.

[Clinical picture and diagnosis of systemic angioreticulomatosis].

Among 131 patients with angioreticulomas of different parts of the central nervous system 16 and systemic angioreticulomatosis, which in half of the patients was in the form of multifocal lesion within the boundaries of the central nervous system, and in the remaining patients, in the form of the Hippel-Lindau syndrome. The authors point out frequent recurrence of this pathological condition, relatively poor results of surgical treatment, and the difficulty of intravital diagnosis, particularly in the case of asymptomatic visceral pathology in the Hippel-Lindau disease. The complex of diagnostic measures included total computer tomography which allowed systemic angioreticulomatosis to be verified in different stages of its clinical development. The clinical, computer-tomographic, and post-mortem findings in systemic angioreticulomatosis are compared.

[Method of highly sensitive electrothermometry for intraoperative diagnosis of supratentorial brain tumors].

The authors suggest a method of highly sensitive electrothermometry tested on 56 patients with extra- and intracerebral tumours of the brain matter of supratentorial localization. This method makes it possible to determine the localization, boundaries, dimensions and character of the tumour during the operation, which is essential for its subsequent removal with the least possible injury to surrounding tissues.

[Surgical tactics in hourglass tumors with intravertebral-mediastinal locations].

The most expedient surgical tactics in hour-glass tumors of intravertebral-mediastinal localization are discussed. In 10 of 27 cases total removal of the tumor through a vertebral approach proved possible. Total removal of a rather large intrathoracic node by Guleke's method was conducted in 2 cases. In 10 cases with large intrathoracic nodes, total removal of the tumor was carried out by means of a combined intravertebral-thoracic (transpleural) approach suggested by the authors. It is emphasized that multi-stage operations and partial resection of the tumor are inexpedient and that attempts to remove it totally through a thoracic approach only are inadmissible.
