[Conization of the portio by Kullander's method].

The author presents his experience goined in performing 100 conizations after the modified Scott-Burghardt bloodless method reported by Kullander. In this whole series only one case of more serious postoperative bleeding (solved by electrocagulation) was recorded. Time advantages of the method over the previously used Sturmdorf method of conization with the plastic surgery of the portion are emphasized.

Diagnostic echocardiography in the adult.

The purpose of this paper is to review basic and practical adult echocardiography. The commonly used techniques are briefly described. Normal valve characteristics, common valvular abnormalities, evaluation of cardiac chamber dimensions, pericardial space and left ventricular function are discussed. Newer aspects of echocardiography, two-dimensional scanning and pulsed Doppler techniques, are briefly reviewed. Finally, a discussion of problems and new directions in the field are presented.

[Broncho-vascular branching in the sub-segment (author's transl)].

The three pulmonary branching systems in the sub-segment have been studied by making casts. A comparison between them shows considerable differences between the vascular systems and the air passages. The bronchi show two types of branching: we can distinguish between irregular, dichotomous acute angled branching and predominantly regular dichotomous, wide-angled branching. The second type is often found in the bifurcations of large vessels and bronchi in the lung centre, where the lung parenchyma is made to fit into a confined space. Branching of the bronchi is very different from that of the vessels. The characteristic features of the latter are that the lateral branches are more numerous but smaller than the corresponding bronchi and show less contact with the lung periphery.

[Serial observations of a pulmonary echinococcus, with rupture into the bronchial system (author's transl)].

The radiological course of an echinococcus cyst of the lung before and after rupture is described, together with the cytological and histological findings. The resultant tissue changes and appropriate treatment (lobectomy) are discussed. In the presence of the appropriate radiological changes, eosinophil granulocytes in the sputum suggest cyst rupture, even in the absence of echinococcus tissue. However, bronchial asthma or Löffler's infiltrates should be excluded clinically. They delayed appearance of peripheral blood eosinophilia after cyst rupture and the development of an eosinophilic broncho-pneumonia is noteworthy.
