[Indications and results of dorsal sympathectomy in vascular syndromes of the upper limb (author's transl)].

The authors report 50 cases of dorsal sympathectomy followed up on the cardiovascular surgery unit of the Amiens University Hospital over a period of six years. The authors then formulate a number of reflexions concerning the clinical findings, the therapeutic indications, and the way of assessing the results of this operation in vascular syndromes of the upper limb. This is a plea in favour of this operation as, in most cases, no other treatment is comparable.

[Choice of an anesthetic technic for venous surgery of the lower limbs].

The introduction of new anesthetic drugs and the option of administering anesthesia to outpatients for venous surgery of the lower limbs have modified the anesthesiologist's strategy. In addition, the final decision depends on the number of attending physicians (family doctor, phlebologist, surgeon, anesthesiologist, and of course, on the patient). The essential elements which determine the choice are: the methods preferred by the anesthesiologist, the patient's wishes, the duration, type and painful nature of the procedure. All types of anesthetic protocols may be employed. General anesthesia is often preferable because of its flexible administration and local anesthesia because it is simple to administer. Loco-regional anesthetics can be substituted for local types of anesthesia in bilateral surgical procedures but these are difficult to administer on an outpatient basis. Development of new drugs such as propofol is tending to give general anesthesia in outpatients an important role once again.

[Ruptured aneurysms of the aorta. Analysis of a series of 75 cases].

Rupture of an abdominal aorta aneurysm was treated in 75 patients between 1969 and 1984. Global mortality was 70%, and factors influencing mortality, and its causes, are analyzed in this series. The presence and course of hemorrhagic shock is the essential prognostic factor, as well as the type of rupture. Mortality as a function of the groups varied between 27 and 90%. Causes of early mortality were directly related to collapse and its severity, other types of fatal complication being related to the patients general condition. Prognosis is improved by early diagnosis and rapidity of operative treatment. This series represents, in fact, only 36% of the total aneurysms operated upon during the same period, and a preventive surgical attitude is the only means of improving overall prognosis.
