- Osteoarthritis of the knee is not a well defined illness, but is a result of different causes that may lead to joint failure due to chondral damage, synovial inflammation, subchondral bone formation, and the formation of osteophytes along the joint lines. The pathogenesis is unclear. We still lack treatment to cure the early prosess of chondral degeneration. The treatment of choice in early and moderate osteoarthritis of the knee is limited to counselling, physiotherapy, analgesics, and surgical correction of malalignment. Documentation is still lacking on chondral debridement and transplantation of the degenerated cartilage by cultured chondocytes, periosteum or perichondrium. An effective and well documented treatment of end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee in the older population is replacement of the joint by a knee prosthesis.

- Eighty patients with monoradicular sciatica were examined by myelography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and all had subsequent surgery. The images were evaluated by a decision-analytic regret function. The largest amount of diagnostic information was gained from CT followed by MRI and myelography. Myelography was not significantly informative. The results suggest that CT or MRI should be the first choice examination in patients with suspected lumbar disc herniation.

- Acute acalculous cholecystitis (AC) is an inflammatory process of the gallbladder, often caused by other severe diseases. The etiology is multifactorial, but the pathogenesis is in all cases a reduction in the gallbladder's emptying capacity. The mortality of AC reaches 85% without treatment. This fact makes it important to consider AC as a possible complication to major surgery, multi-trauma, and artificial ventilation. Symptoms resemble "normal" cholecystitis, but may be masked by the underlying severe disease. Fever without known focus may be the only symptom. Ultrasound, CT-scanning or cholangiography are used to verify the diagnosis, supplemented by laboratory investigations. Treatment is cholecystectomy. Percutaneous ultrasonic guided cholecystotomy is a good alternative if the diagnosis made in an early stage. The mortality is considerably reduced by early intervention.

- At present, when economy and environment receive high priority, the ideal anaesthesia system with inhalation anaesthetics is a closed circle system in which only the gases which the patient consumes or produces are replaced or eliminated. Low-flow (LF) anaesthesia in which the fresh gas flow which is employed in a closed system, provides a stable system compares with closed anaesthesia systems. Compared with open systems and circler systems with considerable fresh gas flow, the LF system provides advantages as regards economy, environment and exposure of staff to inhalation anaesthetics. The special conditions involved in LF anaesthesia are described in detail with the hope that the method will obtain more widespread distribution than is the case in Denmark today. If greater safety under anaesthesia is desired, eg by monitoring the concentrations of CO2, O2 and inhalation anaesthetics which the patients inspire and expire, this monitoring equipment can be financed by introduction of LF anaesthesia.

- Anaesthesia with closed anaesthetic systems demands knowledge of the physiology of the patients and of how the various anaesthetic gases behave in the organism as only the gases which the patients produces and absorbs are eliminated and replaced. The system is educational as it provides knowledge of the genuine absorption of oxygen and anaesthetic gases. The method is favourable to the environment as only the gases which are used are supplied and it is thus economical in use although investment in monitoring equipment is necessary. In practice, induction and waking of the patient are complicated with this system and it requires an anaesthetist who constantly adjusts the gases in the circuit.
