The Medical Roundup Smarltui Consultant In Medlcln., Mayo Clinic Emtrltai Professor of M.dlcln., Mayo Foundation Surgery For Heart Disease At a recent meeting of the American College of Surgeons, o Dr. Richard T. McDonald and associates, of the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, reported au topsy studies on 113 hearts which showed that less than 13 per cent of the patients who had died of arterio-sclerotic heart disease could have benefitted from coronary artery surgery of any kind. The difficulty is that when a bad heart attack comes, it may come only after several arteries in the heart have been diseased for a long while. They ars so badly narrowed that the j problem of getting plenty of j blood to the heart muscle is too great to be solved by any meth od as yet available. It is Inter esting to note that at this meet ing of 8,500 surgeons,. many of the papers were on heart sur gery. Transplantation of the Heart Dr. W. R. Webb, of the Uni versity of Mississippi has re ported success in transplanting a heart from one dog to another. He and Dr. H. S." Howard per formed this operation 30 times. ' Sometimes they transplanted the lungs with the heart, and some times they kept the heart in deep freeze for a while until they were ready to use it. The techni cal problems of making the transplantation have been solv ed; what hasn't yet been solved is the problem of keeping the heart functioning for months or years. At the surgical Congress, Doc tors S. F. Sayegh, Oscar Creech Jr., and J- H. Harding, of Tulane University, reported the trans plantation of hearts from new born puppies to adult dogs, or O from small rabbits to large ones. Unfortunately, these transplants did not stay. Transplantation of Skin As I have mentioned in this column, one can easily trans plant, skin from a father to his badly-burned child, but the skin won't stay functioning for more than two or three weeks. The body of .the child won't accept it and keep it; it throws it off. Much research is being done in an effort to solve this problem, and it will be a great day for " surgery when it is solved. At present, the only transplanted piece of tissue which will stick to a person rrrust come from his identical twin. There are caes now on record in which a kid ney has been transplanted from one identical twin into the other, and has remained to function well. Hopeful news in regard to the preparation of transplants that would stay came from the Uni versity of Minnesota, where Doc tors R. H. Egdahl, F. D. Roller, and R. L. Varco reported that they transplanted skin from one rat to another, and had it sur vive for as long as nine months. This is a tremendous achieve ment. It was done by preparing the recipient rat by early injec tions of cells from the lymph nodes or spleen of the donor rat. This preparation must start shortly after the recipient is born. Then, when the rat grows up, he will accept foreign skin and keep it for months. Subcommittee To Consider Road Bill Portland (IP) First item on the 1958 agenda of the Senate roads and highways subcom mittee will be the bill of six Pacific Northwest Democratic senators for an ultimate $50 million authorization for Nation al forest access roads, Sen. Rich ard Neuberger (D.-Ore.) said to day upon his return from region al hearings on the measure. This would be by far the largest ac cess roads fund in history. Neuberger said he had re ceived this assurance from Sen. Albert Gore (D.-Tenn.) chairman of the subcommittee which is considering the bill. Neuberger added that Gore told him "he is fully convinced of the soundness of the legislation and is highly hopeful of its adoption by the Senate." Neuberger said the clinching argument with Gore was testi mony by a number "of Oregon lumber operators, during the hearings in Portland on Dec. 11, that private construction of ac cess roads actually was fi nanced out of the funds which the government collected for National forest stumpage.
