Hernia Repair Tested in Operating Room

Before leaving the operating table, a patient under local anesthetic can help the surgeon check hernia repair, abdominal surgeons were advised at a recent clinical meeting. "The repair is tested by ordering the patient to cough, perform the Valsalva maneuver, and lift his head and shoulders off the operating table," Irving L. Lichtenstein, MD, told a scientific session of the Seventh Annual Clinical Congress of Abdominal Surgeons. These efforts are approximately equivalent to lifting a 75-lb weight, he said, and "early in our experience, produced unexpected frequency of suture or tissue rupture." But, he said, this can be effective in showing the surgeon, while the operation still is in progress, whether the repair is likely to hold or if more work must be done. <h3>'Without Assistance'</h3> Then, Dr. Lichtenstein said, the patient sits up, puts on slippers and robe without assistance, "and may even jump down off the table if

Surgical Forum, 1954: Proceedings of the Forum Sessions, Fortieth Clinical Congress of the American College of Surgeons.

Each year since 1941 The American College of Surgeons has held a Forum on fundamental surgical problems, which was originated under the guidance of Owen H. Wangensteen. Since 1951 the collected papers from this meeting have been published annually. In this latest volume there are 154 papers, presented in 10 different sections. Each section is introduced by an authority in the field, who summarizes and evaluates the papers presented. Approximately one-third of the papers are concerned with research in the related fields of heart and vascular surgery. Another one-third of the papers are devoted to investigations of nutrition, body fluids, metabolism, steroids, and cancer. The remainder are related to the gastrointestinal tract, liver and pancreas, anesthesiology, burns, shock and wounds, and use of plastics. This volume previews much of what will appear in the literature and in greater detail during the ensuing year. If there are those who believe that

The myelogram in avulsion of the brachial plexus.

Although avulsion of the brachial plexus is a well known condition and a not uncommon entity, little attention has been paid to its radiologic features. Murphey, Hartung, and Kirklin (11) published the first case of avulsing injury of the brachial plexus in which myelography was performed. They later presented additional cases before the Clinical Congress of the American College of Surgeons (12). Only recently two other reports have appeared. Whiteleather (16) presented several cases before the American Roentgen Ray Society in 1953, and Jaeger and Whiteley (7) reported 6 cases, with myelograms in 3. In the 6 cases to be reported here findings were obtained on myelography which are considered pathognomonic for avulsion of the brachial plexus. Incidence The exact incidence of various types of injury to the brachial plexus is difficult to determine. The Peripheral Nerve Registry of World War II (17) contains a total of 7,050 cases. Of these, 139 involved the brachial plexus, but the type of lesion is not sta...
