[Primary cancer of the gallbladder. Analysis of a surgical series of 24 cases. Attempted anatomical classification of its prognosis. Proposal of a preventive approach].

This analysis of 24 cases of primary carcinoma of the gall bladder is compared with series in the literature. The extremely poor prognosis of this carcinoma, recognised by all authors, may be explained by the unfavourable background, delay in diagnosis at all stages, early regional spread, difficulty in laying down the therapeutic indications. A Pathological classification for prognosis has been proposed for the surgeon with stages: O, I, II, II a and b, IV a and b, in relation to the spread of the gall bladder carcinoma and reflexions inspired by analysis of the operative results in the literature. Even with better knowledge of predisposing factors, and if new methods of treatment gave greater hope in the future, more frequent use of cholecystectomy seems the best prevention of bladder carcinoma in any case of cholelithiasis whether symptomatic or not, in the absence of any contra-indication.

[General anesthesia in rabbits for digestive surgical research. A spontaneous ventilation technic by Nembutal-diazepam combination].

General anesthesia in the rabbit in spontaneous ventilation, followed by normal awakening and prolonged survival, has been studied here in order to have a series of chronic preparations which the authors could use in their research on digestive surgery. These type of anesthesia requires less personnel, but raises certain difficulties due to the closeness of the thresholds of efficacy and toxicity, the length of the experiment and program requirements. The reliable technic exposed here permits prolonged anesthesia (up to eight hours) with normal survival of the animals. The mortality due to anesthesia was low.

[Angiographic findings in primary miliary hepatic tuberculosis (author's transl)].

The authors describe the hepatic angiographic findings in two patients with primary miliary hepatic tuberculosis. The main angiographic features are abnormalities of the distal arterioles, with small, nodular and irregular formations. The hepatic and portal veins are normal. To our knowledge, it is the first report of angiographic abnormalities in miliary tuberculosis of the liver. The diagnostic and pronostic interest of these findings are discussed.

Unsutured Dacron prosthesis in groin hernias.

We have repaired difficult groin hernias during the past six years by an original procedure consisting of fitting an unsutured Dacron patch between the peritoneum and the muscular layers using a median lower abdominal incision. Our standard technic is described along with its variations and applications.
