In the period between 1967 and 1985 the authors operated on 5 patients with chemodectoma; their ages ranged from 29 to 39. The duration of the disease ranged from 2 to 4 years. The tumor was on the right side in 3 and on the left side in 2 patients. Carotid angiography, which was conducted in all cases, revealed a richly vascularized tumor in the region of the carotid artery bifurcation with characteristic "angulation" and "cuff" signs. Damage to the carotid arteries was avoided during the operation in 3 patients and the chemodectoma was removed subadventitionally. In 2 patients the arteries were injured. There were neither neurological complications nor fatal outcomes.

The problems of the prognosis of various types of epileptic seizures in epileptics are reviewed. Clinical, ultrasonic and electroencephalographic studies involved 155 patients. The findings obtained were computerized. The results of the correlation and regression analysis helped to elucidate a combination of symptoms serving as a rather reliable predictor of the disease outcome.

The author studied the action of a Soviet preparation Metindion in 22 patients with serial epileptic seizures and in 16 patients with an epileptic status. The studies demonstrated a high anticonvulsive activity in serial fits. In epileptical states the action of metindion was less expressed. Its combination with diazepam preparations and barbiturates appeared to have a more expressed and prolonged anticonvulsive action. Metindion is most effective when used at initial stages of a convulsive condition.
