[False chordae tendineae: incidence and clinical meaning].

The presence of false tendons (FT) was sought with M-mode and 2-D echocardiography in a consecutive series of 316 patients with a wide age range (13-73 yrs). FT were observed in 13 patients (4.1%), all of them in the left ventricular cavity. Their clinical significance is pointed out together with the possibility of diagnostic error with other pathological formations, particularly intracavitary thrombi.

[Indications for surgical and sclerosing treatment of varices of the lower limbs].

The authors consider the usefulness of sclerosing varicose veins in the lower limbs according to tournay's classic teaching, and in accordance with their basically surgical orientation, they try to classify a series of absolute indications for the surgical treatment, and a second series of analogous indications for the sclerosant treatment. Since the treatment of varicose veins does not come into effect all at once, the two methods - surgical and sclerosant - can be usefully combined.

[Pulmonary throboembolism: radiological examination without contrast media. (Findings in 70 cases)].

The results are reported of radiologic investigations carried out without contrast medium in 70 selected patients with pulmonary thromboembolisms. The frequency of different signs is reported. Attention is stressed of the following data: 1) value of some semeiologic findings both hilar (hilar amputation, arterial dilation) and parenchimal (increased translucency, hypoperfusion), mainly compared with previous radiographic examinations; 2) frequency of atelectasis with its various findings; 3) significance of the evolution referred both to the infarction and the thromboembolic pattern.
