The authors have studied the motoric activity of the stomach in 40 patients with acute appendicitis and in 15 patients with other lesions. In appendicitis the strength and depth of gastric contractions were found to be mostly labile, while the number of waves of gastric contractions was relatively constant.

Among 140 patients with hydatid echinococcosis of the liver complications were noted in 58 cases: suppuration of the cyst - in 38 (27.1%), cyst rupture in the anterior abdominal wall and abdominal cavity - in 4 (2.8%), in bile ducts - in 10 (7.1%), its rupture into the right lung lower lobe, calcification of the cyst was noted in 4 patients (2.8%). It is concluded that open echinococcotomy with partial excision of the fibrous capsule and drainage of the residual cavity with a rubber tube seem to be the most effective operation for suppurative echinococcosis of the liver.
