Gastrointestinal complications, such as ileus, bleeding, stenosis and fistula formation, were retrospectively analysed on 180 patients with acute pancreatitis. Paralytic ileus occurred in only a quarter of patients with acute oedematous pancreatitis and only one had bleeding from a gastric ulcer. Complications occurred in the early but also postacute stage in patients with the haemorrhagic-necrotizing form. Even with early and delayed operation and adequate treatment of most complications, renewed gastrointestinal complications were not uncommon and required re-operations.

The results of selective proximal vagotomy and pyloroplasty for duodenal and gastric ulcer in 464 patients over the last 5 years were evaluated in 438 cases. More than 75% of the patients were observed for 2 years after the operation. More than 25% were emergency cases, the incidence of intraoperative complications like splenic lesions or perforation of the esophagus was 3.2%. Postoperative complications like leakage of the pyloroplasty, peritonitis, hemorrhage from the pyloroplasty or disruption of the laparotomy closure occurred in 14,4%. The overall mortality was 4.6%, the elective mortality 1.6%. Recurrent ulcers were seen after 1/2-2 1/4 years with an overall rate of 3.2%. Over half of these cases required relaparotomy. In 5.3% relaparotomy had to be done for peritonitis, GI-bleeding, bleeding from the lesser curvature of the stomach, ileus or carcinoma. The Pentagastrin stimulated gastric secretion remained constantly reduced for more then 2 years in over 60%. Following the Visick-grading system the results were good in 61-65% of the patients and bad in 16-22% depending on the time of observation.

The cases of two patients with severe intoxication with organophosphorus pesticides and heavy gastroduodenal complications are presented. In the first patient an acute gastric ulcer with perforation and diffuse peritonitis developed and the patient died on the third day. In the second patient two post bulbar duodenal ulcers develops with a hemorrhage from one of them. The patient was successfully operated but after 4 days a relaparotomy was performed because of obstructive ileus. He was discharged from the hospital in a good general condition after an 80 day treatment. The possibility of such severe gastroduodenal complications of acute intoxication with organophosphorus pesticides is pointed out. Urgent fiber gastroduodenoscopy and timely operation are essential for the favourable outcome of the disease.

Open-heart surgery was performed on 1686 adult patients between 1980 and 1984, with a mortality rate due to abdominal complications of 0.6%. Every operation involved the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Abdominal complications occurred in 1.6%, with an overall mortality rate of 36%. The most frequent complication was gastrointestinal (Gl) bleeding (61%). The mortality of the patients who bled from the Gl tract was 53%. Other complications encountered were gastroduodenal ulcer, colitis, ileus, subphrenic abscess and intraperitoneal bleeding. Prolonged CPB and low output syndrome preceded multiple organ failure, which occurred in 39% of those who had abdominal complications and in 59% of those who bled. Gl bleeding after CPB did not correlate with a previous history of gastric ulcer. Reoperation because of cardiac tamponade or excessive chest tube drainage was a factor predisposing to Gl bleeding. The mortality and abdominal complication rates were significantly higher in valve surgery than in coronary revascularization.

The concentration of serum and intraperitoneal exudate after dripping intravenous administration of CTM were measured. Four male cases of the emergent laparotomy, a Cushing's ulcer, a hemorrhagic gastric ulcer, an adhesive ileus and acute terminal ileitis were investigated on this study. Two grams of CTM dissolving into 100 ml of physiological saline solution were prepared and administered in a period of 1 hour by intravenous drip (i.v.d.) for all cases after operation. The measurement of CTM-concentration in serum and intraperitoneal exudate were made at 30 minutes, 60 minutes following administration by serum and intraperitoneal exudate were made at 30 minutes, 60 minutes following administration by i.v.d. and at 30 minutes, hourly intervals over a 6-hour period after total administration. The intraperitoneal exudate for this study were collected through a drain which provided at the operation. These samples were measured by Agar-well method at Takeda Central Research Laboratory. Takeda Co., Ltd. The mean value of serum CTM at 30 minutes after the beginning of i.v.d. administration was 65.7 micrograms/ml and the maximum value, 79 micrograms/ml was obtained at 60 minutes. The following mean values at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours and 6 hours after total administration were 39.1, 26.4, 14.6, 8.9, 4.7 and 0.6 microgram/ml. On the other hand, the mean values of CTM intraperitineal exudate at the same time intervals were 4.9, 20.7, 32.0, 34.3, 22.4, 13.9, 11.2, 8.7 and 3.3 micrograms/ml. These results showed that there were much transfer of CTM between serum and intraperitoneal exudate corresponding to the amount of administration.

We had already made a report on outcome of schizophrenia (1986). The patients, 129 typical schizophrenia, were continuously observed over 30 years in the Kawagoe Dojinkai Hospital. Recently, we again evaluated their prognoses according to the same criteria as adopted in the first report, and divided them into the following five groups. [symbol: see text]: completely remitted group (21 persons, 16.3%), [symbol: see text]: almost remitted cases now holding jobs (23 persons, 17.8%), [symbol: see text]: Slightly remitted group showing good adjustment at home or hospital (41 persons, 31.8%), [symbol: see text]: maladjusted cases always showing an unfavorable condition (25 persons, 19.4%), x : incurable cases (19 persons, 14.7%). 1) In the last 8 years, there were 30 persons (23.3% of the whole patients) who showed prognostic changes (10 persons improved, 20 persons worsen). While the second group ([symbol: see text]) has seen fewer persons (12 persons down) than previous study, the third group ([symbol: see text]) has seen more persons (9 persons up). Each three groups, that is, the first two groups ([symbol: see text] + [symbol: see text], 44 persons, 34.1%), the third group ([symbol: see text], 41 persons, 31.8%), and the forth and fifth groups ([symbol: see text] + x, 44 persons, 34.1%) accounted for a third of the whole patients. It is after 32 years on the average (extending from 21 to 50 years) from the onset of illness that they showed prognostic changes. 2) Generally speaking, catatonic patients had favorable prognoses, hebephrenic patients unfavorable ones, and paranoid patients medium ones. But 4 improved persons in the forth and fifth groups were all hebephrenic type. 3) 17 among the 30 persons who showed prognostic changes were unstable type. They took a wave-like course. 4) 27 of all the 129 patients were dead. 25 were dead from disease mentioned below. Malignancy (8 persons), Cerebral vascular disease, Pneumonia and Diabetes (3 persons), Heart-failure (2 persons), Ileus, Myocardial infarction, Hepato-cirrhosis, Gastric ulcer, Tuberculosis and Natural death (1 person). 2 persons committed suicide. 5) Outcome of 45 patients who discontinued our medical therapy became clear as follows. [symbol: see text] + [symbol: see text]: 18 persons (40.0%), [symbol: see text]: 9 persons (20.0%), [symbol: see text] + x : 18 persons (40.0%). A smaller percentage of the patients belongs to the third group ([symbol: see text]) than that of our patients who were continuously followed by us.

Between January 1985 and September 1994, 21 patients with psychiatric disorders underwent various forms of surgery at our hospital. There were 12 men and 9 women with an average age of 57.6 years. The coexisting psychiatric disorders were schizophrenia in 15 patients, depression in 2, dementia in 2, mental retardation with epilepsy in 1, and Parkinson's disease in 1. All the patients had been receiving neuroleptic medications for a long period. The indications for surgery were: cholelithiasis in 6 patients, acute appendicitis in 4, perforation of the small intestine in 3, incarceration of an inguinal hernia in 2, and esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, bleeding from a gastric ulcer, perforation of a duodenal ulcer, strangulating ileus, and burns in 1 patient each, respectively. All of the patients who underwent elective surgery were given epidural anesthesia with or without general anesthesia. Antipsychotic medications were given until just prior to surgery and recommenced concurrent with the first meal. Abnormal behavior was observed in 11 patients (52.4%) postoperatively, but all the patients were discharged in accordance with recovery from their surgical disorder. Intra- and postoperative hypotension resistant to intravenous catecholamine administration was recognized in 9 patients (42.9%), and this peculiar complication should be borne in mind when patients with psychiatric disorders require surgical management.

The paper presents the diagnostic features of 95 cases with complicated forms of abdominal tuberculosis (AT). The latter has been found to be concurrent with disseminated progressive pulmonary tuberculosis in 97.3% of cases. HIV infection is present in 25.2% of the patients. In 42.1%, a complication of AT is its first onset. The late diagnosis of AT in the phase of development of complications is due to its asymptomatic course at the early stage, the similarity of clinical manifestations with various nonspecific abdominal diseases, the low informative value of radiodiagnostic techniques, and scanty bacterial excretion. In this connection, AT is detectable in 92.6% with the development of acute surgical abdominal pathology requiring emergency diagnostic laparoscopy and surgery. Among all acute surgical abdominal diseases, complicated abdominal tuberculosis ranks third, which in the presence of any abdominal symptoms, particularly those concurrent with pulmonary tuberculosis needs examination for abdominal tuberculosis. Various surgical interventions (more commonly right-sided hemicolectomy, enterectomy, and abdominal abscess lancing) were made in 92 patients with complicated abdominal tuberculosis. There were intraoperative complications, such as perforated tuberculous intestinal ulcers (54.7%), ileus (30.5), abdominal and retroperitoneal abscesses (11.6%), as well as other rare complications, such as intestinal hemorrhage, perforated tuberculous gastric ulcer, and splenic abscess (3.2%). In 42.1% of cases, surgery was ineffective and it was followed by the development of recurrent complications that required surgery. In HIV-infected patients, AT ran more severely. Overall mortality in patients with AT was 47.4%, that in patients with and without HIV infection was 58.3 and 43.7%, respectively.
