[Multiple injuries involving the retroperitoneal space].

From 1971-1982, 598 polytraumatized patients had concomitant injuries of the retroperitoneal space. The mortality rate came up to 33.4%. Diagnostically abdominal lavage, laparoscopy, selective angiography and CT were carried out. Often life saving laparotomy had to be practised without further delay.

[Operations in acute blockade of the common bile duct and the papilla].

From 1971 to 1980, 7015 operations of the bile duct were performed at the IIIrd Surgical Clinic (University of Brno) and the District Hospital Brno: 25 cases for acute septic cholangitis, 725 cases for acute or recurrent cholecystopancreatitis and 30 cases for acute obstruction of Vater's papilla with concomitant biliary hypertension of the biliary tree and shock symptoms. This "papillary shock" was complicated by infection and needed urgent surgical intervention.

[Tibial condylar fractures--conservative or surgical management? A retrospective study].

In the period from January 1983 to June 1986 were treated 141 patients with tibial condylar fractures in our institute. We wanted to compare the results of conservative versus surgical treatment. The results of 40 patients were analyzed, both clinically and X-rayed, and then compared according to Courvoisier scheme. The obtained results were better with conservative treatment in cases of fractures of both condyles. The reasons were discussed. The infection rate was 12.9%. It is stressed the importance of modern methods as early functional treatment and minimal osteosyntheses combined with arthroscopy controls.

Reperfusion of coronary arteries after temporary occlusion in dogs.

The influence of previous pharmacotherapy or intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (with thiamine infusion) on the effectiveness of reperfusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery after 150 minutes of occlusion has been studied in dogs. The infarct size was determined by morphometric method 20 hours after the onset of ischaemia. Reperfusion 150 minutes after the occlusion of the LAD coronary artery resulted in a smaller infarct; however, no protective effect from pharmacological or mechanical heart support during the period of ischaemia was observed.
