ABSTRACT
A retrospective longitudinal study of 99 patients who underwent Highly Selective Vagotomy for duodenal ulcer was done. The follow-up period was two years. A 41-question survey, made for this purpose, was conducted. The survey meets the requirements of this investigation. The study assessed the effect of this technique. The patients stayed in the hospital for a short period of time after surgery. They did not need any blood transfusion. The recurrence percent was very low

Two 28 and 25 year old female patients were studied. Endoscopic analysis of their stomachs showed an hyperemic mammillation picture, neoplasia compatible, in the first patient, and an ulcerous lesion in the second one. Both findings were the result of a positive serological test to discard syphilis. All this, together with a cutaneous and epidemiological history, represented an assumed diagnosis of a secondary stage syphilis with gastric disorders. Although it was not necessary, one case was submitted to a specific spirochaeta stain, but results were negative. The true diagnosis resulted from a penicillin treatment, which provoked a cutaneous-visceral history regression as well as a diminishing in V.D.R.L. titles

Se revisa el tema de adenoma velloso del recto y se comparan las conclusiones de otros autores con las extraídas de nuestra experiencia obtenida en un exiguo número de pacientes. Se estudia cuidadosamente un total de 14 pacientes encontrados entre un total de 6 354 pacientes vistos por primera vez en la consulta externa del servicio de coloproctología del hospital docente "Comandante Manuel Fajardo", lo que representa el 0,22 porciento del total. Se detalla la incidencia por edad, raza, sexo y se hace comparación con otros autores. Se brinda en detalle la conducta seguida con cada uno de los pacientes y su evolución posoperatoria (AU)
