NEW SULFA DRUG

CUTS INTESTINE

OPERATION RISK

Kills Germs in the Lower Alimentary Canal and Speeds Healing.

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Medical Writer

HOT SPRINGS, Va. Dec. 13.— Spectacular results with a new sulfa

drug in fighting germs that threaten

lives of patients requiring operations for cancer or other diseases of the lower alimentary tract were announced by Dr. Warfield M. Firor, acting chief surgeon, Johns Hopkins Hospital, and acting professor of surgery, Johns Hopkins Medical School, at the meeting of the Southern Surgical Association here yesterday. The new sulfa drug is sulfanilylguanidine. This is the first report of its use on patients. Tests on animals, reported in September by Dr. E. K. Marshall of Johns Hopkins Medical ‘ School, showed that it might prove very effective in fight ing such intestinal tract diseases as bacillary dysentery and typhoid fever. | : These tests showed that the new drug was fairly soluble in water but that, unlike other of the sulfa drugs, it is very poorly absorbed from the digestive tract. This means that almost all of it stays in the lower alimentary canal, where it is needed to blitzkrieg the germs in cases of dysentery or-in other conditions. Frees Canal of Germs

This lower end of the digestive tract always has germs in it. So long as they remain in the alimentary canal, most of these germs normally present do no harm. When, however, the surgeon must open the canal to remove a cancer . or for other reasons, the germs have - a chance to get into other parjs of the abdomen and cause serious, fre= quently fatal infection. ~~ : . Dr. Firor reported today that give ing patients. the new sulfa g before operation frees the alimentary canal of germs. In every case sO far the wounds have healed without infection. Every patient has survived the operation, although mor=tality in operations of this type at the very best has been as high as 10 or 15 per cent. Patients not only survive the operation with the aid of the new drug but can go home from the hospital much sooner than

usua} because the wound heals more

rapidly. Too, sulfanilylguanidine is less toxic than any of the oie sulfa drugs. It is given by mouth, and no patient has had nausea or vomiting from it. ! Plan Further Study The 15 or more patients who have now survived operations with the aid of the new drug required opera= tions involving removal of a part of the alimentary canal or restoration of the canal after temporary drainages to the outside had been made in previous operations. Operations of this type account for about one twentieth of all surgery—even ine cluding removal of tonsils. The low= er alimentary canal is one of the most frequent sites of cancer. ; Sulfanilylguanidine, under the Federal food and drug restrictions, has not yet been released for gene eral sale, but is being distributed, Dr. Firor said, to a number of sur= geons for further study of its effects, On the medical side, sulfanilyl= guanidine has been used with gratifying results in treatment of acute bacillary dysentery. Dr. Marshall expects to report soon on trials of the drug now being made in Puerto Rico, where dysentery occurs the year round. !

(BRIDGE COLLAPSE

HELD AVERTABLE

NEW YORK, Dec. 13 (U. P).— Dr. D. B. Steinman, authority on

suspension and long-span bridges,

told the Brooklyn Engineers’ Club today that the. trouble that de= veloped on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge was anticipated two years ago and the collapse of the span easily could have been averted. He asserted that the Tacoma ' bridge went beyond all precedent in slenderness of design, resulting. in extreme susceptibility to .aerodynamic effects. He maintained bridge easily could have been made

that the Tacoma

safe by addition of a comparatively

inexpensive system of ‘rope stays. If, on the morning before the collapse, two strings of loaded trucks had been placed on the hridge to

| increase its weight ‘against wind

uplift, the bridge would have been °

saved, he asserted.
