[Gynecological urologic disease: a summary of clinical experience during the last 4 years at Wakayama Red Cross Hospital].

From April 1979 to March 1983, sixty seven patients with gynecological urologic disease were experienced at our department. Forty one of them were inpatients, i.e., 15.3% of the total number of female in patients admitted during the same period. Thirty three urologic operations were performed on them which corresponded to 16.1% of the total operations on female patients. Ten of these patients had ureteral obstruction following gynecological operation, 8 had ureteral fistula, 7 had vesicovaginal fistula, 11 had tumor invasion to urinary tract, 14 had radiation cystitis, 16 had neurogenic bladder dysfunction, and 1 had other complication. The treatment of these patients and the results are summarized and discussed.

Canadian Red Cross lecture. Current concepts of oxygen-transporting blood substitutes.

Blood substitutes are being developed that will provide oxygen-transporting capabilities as well as volume replacement. Perfluorochemical and hemoglobin solutions have potential clinical use. A perfluorochemical blood substitute, Fluosol-DA 20%, is being used in clinical trials in several countries. These blood substitutes are not capable of totally replacing the need for blood transfusions but could be used temporarily in situations where blood is contraindicated or not available. They may be useful for a wide range of clinical conditions other than blood replacement, such as impending tissue ischemia. Before large-scale clinical use of these products is realized, more information is needed about drug efficacy and safety so that intelligent decisions can be made about indications for this type of transfusion therapy.
