[The optimal diagnosis of recurrence and metastases in female genital cancer by needle biopsy (author's transl)].

The "true-cut" disposable biopsy needle was used for 95 needle biopsies in 42 patients who were suspected to have a recurrence or metastases of low lying gynaecological cancer. Up to 3 biopsies per patient were obtained. In 21 patients the clinical suspicion of malignant was verified by microscopic examination. The needle biopsies were done as often by the vaginal as by the rectal route. Because of the low incidence of complications the needle biopsy was recommended for the definite diagnosis and follow-up examination of suspicious low lying gynaecological tumors.

[Regional myocardial blood flow and left ventricular function in critical coronary stenosis and after coronary artery bypass grafting in the dog (author's transl)].

In 7 mongrel dogs myocardial ischemia is produced by means of an ameroid constrictor placed on the left circumflex coronary artery (CCA). Myocardial blood flow (MBF) is diminished by 56% in an area of 25% of the anterior wall of the left ventricle. A decrease in dp/dtmax suggests a small depression of left ventricular function. After bypass operation the slight changes in EDP, dp/dtmax and Vmax indicate no significant improvement of total ventricular function. MBF increases from 42 +/- 10 ml/100 g/min to 67 +/- 21 ml/100 g/min (p smaller than 0.02) in the area supplied by the bypass. In this region intramyocardial pressure rises significantly suggesting improvement of regional myocardial function.

[Effect of coronary bypass surgery on myocardial pressure and ventricular function in the dog].

In 7 dogs a severe stenosis of the left circumflex coronary artery (CCA) is produced in the course of 18 days. The influence of myocardial revascularization on left ventricular function and on intramyocardial pressures in the areas supplied by the CCA and by the left anterior descending coronary artery is studied. Neither under control conditions nor during acute left ventricular pressure load does opening a bypass graft between the carotid artery and CCA induce a significant change in total ventricular function (dp/dtmax, Vmax, left ventricular enddiastolic pressure). However, immediately after opening the graft intramyocardial pressure rises in the CCA area indicating a regional improvement of myocardial function.
