The "best" surgical technique for the management of complete rectal prolapse remains unknown. Due to its low incidence, it is very difficult to achieve a representative number of cases, and there are no large prospective randomized trials to attest to the superiority of one operation over another. PURPOSE: Analyze the results of surgical treatment of complete rectal prolapse during 1980 and 2002. METHOD: Retrospective study. RESULTS: Fifty-one patients underwent surgical treatment during this period. The mean age was 56.7 years, with 39 females. Besides the prolapse itself, 33 patients complained of mucous discharge, 31 of fecal incontinence, 14 of constipation, 17 of rectal bleeding, and 3 of urinary incontinence. Abdominal operations were performed in 36 (71%) cases. Presacral rectopexy was the most common abdominal procedure (29 cases) followed by presacral rectopexy associated with sigmoidectomy (5 cases). The most common perineal procedure was perineal rectosigmoidectomy associated with levatorplasty (12 cases). Intraoperative bleeding from the presacral space developed in 2 cases, and a rectovaginal fistula occurred in another patient after a perineal rectosigmoidectomy. There were 2 recurrences after a mean follow-up of 49 months, which were treated by reoperation. CONCLUSION: Abdominal and perineal procedures can be used to manage complete rectal prolapse with safety and good long-term results. Age, associated medical conditions, and symptoms of fecal incontinence or constipation are the main features that one should bear in mind in order to choose the best surgical approach.

The experience of surgical treatment of 19 patients with tumors of the upper-thoracic spine is analyzed. All the patients had undergone decompressive-stabilizing surgical procedures. Surgical approach, form of decompression and fixation were determined depending on the signs of compression of the spinal cord and neural structures, etiology and degree of the vertebral body destruction. Good and satisfactory short- and long-term results were achieved in all the patients. The case of surgical treatment of female patient with giant neurofibromas of Th2 vertebrae is also reported.

SummaryIn a prospective trial over seven years (1993-1999), 44 joints from 41 dogs with an ununited anconeal process are reported. The average age of the animals was 23 weeks. With regard to breed distribution, the German Shepherd was most frequently represented with 29 animals.In 35 joints, the anconeal process was stabilised with lag screw and pin, as there was no fibrous connection between the anconeal process and the ulna. Additionally, in all cases an ulna ostectomy was performed. In nine joints, the connection of the anconeal process to the olecranon was firm and only a proximal ulna ostectomy was performed. The patients were rechecked clinically and radiologically, at an average of 13 weeks post operation. With one exception, in all of the cases the apophysis was closed. The implants were removed in 25 patients. The surgical results were examined once more after an average of 20 months in 43 joints (40 dogs). 83.7% of the cases (n = 36) did not show any lameness after the combined therapy with fixation of the isolated anconeal process and osteotomy of the ulna (n = 28) or ulna ostectomy only (n = 8) and were assessed as ‘good’. Six dogs (five with fixation, one with ostectomy) showed some degree of lameness after heavy strain and were only evaluated as ‘satisfactory’. One dog still had a striking low to medium grade lameness, so that the result was regarded as ‘unsatisfactory’. With regard to the development of arthrosis, only nine of the 30 joints (30%) examined radiographically showed a mild increase of the arthroses during later examinations.In many cases excision of the ununited anconeal process leads to unsatisfactory long-term results. Frequently surgical treatment does not lead to fusion. This paper describes a concept for treatment of an ununited anconeal process and the short- and long-term results. Proximal ostectomy of the ulna was performed, as a single measure, when the anconeal process was tightly in place. In joints with a loose anconeal process, the piece of bone was stabilised with implants, in addition to an ostectomy of the ulna. After an average of three months, the anconeal process had fused with the ulna, in all hut one case. In long-term follow-ups, after an average of 20 months, most of the dogs did not show any lameness, even after exercise. In only a few joints was a minor increase of arthrosis noted. The technique described is considered to be useful to treat the ununited anconeal process in young dogs.

Epidemiology and Surgical Treatment of Gastric Cancer in Latvia The aim of the study was to evaluate short- and long-term results of surgical treatment of gastric cancer performed in Latvia Oncology Centre. Retrospectively data was collected from 461 patients who underwent gastrectomy with curative intent in the Latvia Oncology Centre from January 2001 to December 2005. The data was subjected to statistical analysis. On average, 92.2 (range 81-102) R0-R1 gastrectomies were performed each year. Post-operative complications occurred in 75 patients (16.3%); in-hospital mortality was 3.3%. The overall 5-year survival was 50.8%. In 444 cases (96.3%) there was histopathologic confirmation of R0-resection with a 5-year survival of 52.5% (P < 0.001). Considering pT category, 5-year survival (median) was 88.6% (not reached) for pT1 patients, 65% (not reached) for pT2, 42.3% (35.7 months) for pT3 and 27% (14.2 months) for pT4 (P < 0.001). Considering the pN category, 5-year survival (median) was 67% (not reached) for pN0 patients, 30% (22.1 months) for pN1 and 29% (14.2 months) for pN2-3 (P < 0.001). Short- as well as long-term results are comparable with Western experiences, but not for pN+ patients where no difference between pN1 and pN2 cases was observed.

Surgical treatment of anterior urethral stenosis encompasses a large number of techniques. In literature there are few prospective studies that could compare the efficacy of different techniques. Most of these studies are retrospective and not multicentric. We present a review of the literature on the treatment of penile and bulbar strictures, focusing the attention on different kinds and numbers of complication, and showing short- and long-term results of each technique.
