Hysteroscopic removal of a Heyman radium capsule.

This case report demonstrates the use of the hysteroscope for the localization and removal of a missing Heyman radium capsule in a patient with endometrial carcinoma. There has been much recent interest in the use of the hysteroscope for therapeutic purposes in clinical gynecology. This case report emphasizes the value of this instrument in patient care.

[Perforations of the gastrointestinal tract by a fish bone].

A brief of the literature dealing with perforations of the gastrointestinal tract at its different levels with fish bones is set forth. In recent 20 years the author has managed to collect 68 observations published in the home literature. 6 cases of the perforation of the duodenum, the small intestine, the ileum with injuries to the mesenteric vessels, resulting in massive bleeding, the caecum and the colon in the hepatic angle are presented. All the patients were operated upon. 2 patients died.

Detached pacing electrode tip as a pulmonary embolus.

Forceful extraction of an Elema unipolar endocardial pacing electrode caused accidental detachment of the electrode tip. The tip migrated from the jugular vein into the central venous circulation and after some delay finally passes during the night into a pulmonary artery branch. Transient pleural irritation was the only sequel.

[Clinical and paraclinical changes in cattle with traumatic pericarditis before and after pericardial puncture].

A puncture of the pericardium has been performed on cows with a traumatic pericarditis. The clinical status has been taken and paraclinical investigations prior to and after the puncture have been carried out. Following a puncture of the pericardium, up to the 12th hour, the movements of the rumen decrease or entirely disappear, and are restored again later, while respiratory movements and the heart activity become ever more frequent. A leucocytosis occurs without a trend towards a return to the initial level as well as neutrophilia with a nuclear left-shifting to metamyelocytes. The clinical and paraclinical changes in cattle with a traumatic pericarditis, after a puncture of the pericardium, point to a deterioration in the condition and a possible exitus.

[Applicability of ultrasonic B-scan diagnosis to localisation of intra-uterine contraceptive devices (author's transl)].

The types Dana super and Copper T intra-uterine devices (IUD) were reliably localised by ultrasonic B-scanning in 100 patients. Five dislocalisations were recorded and one erroneous interpretation in a case of uterus myomatosus. The method was found to be applicable to screening test and is recommended particularly for the following cases: clinically undetectable thread, following insertion, before removal of IUD, and in early pregnancy by the tenth gestational week.

Percutaneous transfemoral retrieval of the "runaway" ventriculoatrial shunt.

A 22-year-old man with a ventriculoatrial shunt was admitted to hospital for investigation of headache, nausea and vomiting. During a procedure done to convert the ventriculoatrial shunt to the ventriculoperitoneal type, the shunt tubing was inadvertently cut in the neck. The atrial end was found to have migrated into the right atrium. It was recovered by percutaneous cardiac catheterization through the femoral vein. The patient tolerated the procedure well. The authors believe that this method of retrieval is easier and carries less operative risk than previously reported methods.
