Diamond-shaped anastomosis for congenital duodenal obstruction.

A retrocolic side-to-side duodenojejunostomy has been a generally accepted standard operative procedure for the correction of congenital duodenal atresia and stenosis. However, this operation has the complication of delayed anastomotic function that often requires a use of transanastomotic feeding tube or intravenous hyperalimentation. A diamond-shaped side-to-side duodenoduodenal anastomosis has been performed in nine consecutive cases of congenital duodenal obstruction, with satisfactory results. A transverse incision is made in the dilated proximal duodenum, and a longitudinal incision in the duodenum distal to the obstruction. The stoma is fashioned by approximating the end of each incision to the appropriate midportion of the other incision. Transanastomotic feeding tubes were not used and oral feedings were easily tolerated. This technique offers the theoretical advantage of providing a more physiological gastrointestinal pathway.

[Study of the clinical effects of sulpiride and perphenazine in 82 schizophrenic patients by the double blind method].

Our clinical and statistical evaluation of Sulpiride and Perphenazine was carried out over a 10 week period, in 82 patients of both sexes, aged 20 to 56 years. All were chronic patients with a symptomatic profile of apathy, lack of initiative but with the personality relatively well preserved in 56 patients. The daily dosage varied from 300 to 1,200 mg Sulpiride orally and 12 to 48 mg Perphenazine. The effects of therapy have been received globally and individually at the beginning, 4th, 8th, and the end of the 10th week using the B.P.R.S. modified by the clinic of Neurology and Psychiatry of the University of Hiroshima. Using "Armitage's Restricted Sequential Design", there was no significant difference between the therapeutic effects of these 2 neuroleptics. However, Sulpiride appeared more beneficial following the review during the 8th week and the 4th week.
