USE OF A NEW LONG-ACTING PENICILLIN COMPOUND IN SURGICAL INFECTIONS

Journal of the American Medical Association (1954)

John R. Hankins

Much research has recently been directed to the problem of developing penicillin preparations that will maintain effective blood levels for long periods of time, thereby obviating the necessity for frequently repeated injections. Before the development of the Romansky formula (pencillin in oil and beeswax) in 1944, only short-acting aqueous preparations were available. These had to be given every three hours. However, with the development of the Romansky formula and the later use of procaine penicillin G in oil and in water, it became possible to maintain fairly effective blood levels for 24 hours with a single 300,000-unit injection. A recent advance in the synthesis of long-acting penicillin is the development of an insoluble salt, N,N¹-dibenzylethylenediamine dipenicillin G (benzathine penicillin G), which is considerably more insoluble than procaine penicillin. A single injection of 600,000 units has been shown to produce a peak of slightly more than 0.1 units per

Achalasia associated with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus: a case report.

PubMed (1985)

Linda A. Rock Patricia S. Latham John R. Hankins Salah M. Nasrallah

A case of achalasia associated with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus is presented. Microscopic examination of the resected esophagus demonstrated abundant nerve fibers but absent ganglion cells throughout the tumor-involved segment. This finding is believed to be the cause of achalasia in this patient.

Thymectomy for My asthenia Gravis

Annals of Surgery (1985)

John R. Hankins Richard F. Mayer John R. Satterfield Stephen Z. Turney Safuh Attar

Forty-eight consecutive patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) attended by generalized weakness were treated by complete thymectomy, performed transsternally in 46 patients and through a left thoracotomy in two with thymomas. There were no operative deaths. A 12-year-old child with fulminating MG died of acute pneumonia shortly after hospital discharge. Of the remaining 47 evaluable patients, thymectomy resulted in complete remission in six, marked improvement with a reduced need for medication in 20, and mild improvement on the same dosage of medication in 18. Neither the age of the patient, nor the histopathology of the excised thymus, nor the postoperative change in acetylcholine receptor antibody titer were found to have a significant influence on the response to thymectomy. If the ten patients who were 20 years of age or younger were excluded, the patients with a shorter duration of MG achieved a better response to operation. The authors conclude that thymectomy is effective treatment for MG, regardless of the age of the patient or the type of thymic pathology.

The use of circular myotomy to facilitate resection and end-to-end anastomosis of the esophagus. An experimental study.

PubMed (1974)

Jesada Muangsombut John R. Hankins G. Robert Mason Joseph S. McLaughlin

Segmental resection of the thoracic esophagus with end-to-end anastomosis carries a lower mortality rate than esophagogastrostomy or colon interposition. However, if more than a few centimeters is resected, the anastomosis fails because of tension. An experimental study is presented in which circular myotomy was utilized to reduce tension and thereby increase the amount of esophagus which could be resected successfully. Sixteen dogs were first subjected to end-to-end anastomosis without myotomy after resection of segments varying from 4 to 7 cm. in length and comprising 20 to 40 per cent of the esophagus. In other dogs, circular myotomy was performed 3 cm. proximal to the anastomosis after resection of 40 to 50 per cent of the esophagus. However, initial attempts failed because of ischemia leading to anastomotic breakdown. The myotomy interrupted important vessels running longitudinally in the deeper layers of the muscularis. Subsequently, we determined that partial circular myotomy afforded just as great a reduction in tension without compromising the blood supply. Our studies show that this technique permits successful resection of much longer segments than would otherwise be possible.
