The behaviour of infected human umbilical vein arterial grafts.

Two patients who received Human Umbilical Vein (H.U.V.) femoropopliteal by-passes to revascularize ischemic limbs, and later underwent emergency operations for acute graft thrombosis, developed H.U.V. graft sepsis. The patients presented with haemorrhage, fever, pain and a growing mass at the site of the previous emergency procedure, one and five months later. An attempt at limited H.U.V. segment substitution (case 1) failed. We then performed successful complete graft excisions combined with extra-anatomical H.U.V. revascularization. At present both patients are asymptomatic with well-functioning H.U.V. grafts, 7 and 13 months later. In both cases Light and Scanning Electron Microscopic studies were performed. Findings of these studies have been analyzed.

[Anatomo-pathologic diagnostic interpretation of nodular hepatic lesions].

Thirty cases of primary hepatic carcinomas and twenty hepatic metastatic localizations with equivocal histopathological features were investigated using morphologic criteria and immunohistochemical methods. The study was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections from surgical removed specimens. On the basis of our experience (in according with literature data) we have shown that most of hepatocellular carcinomas express a specific morphologic pattern (i.e. contemporary cholangiocellular differentiation) and phenotypic characters (particularly CEA positivity with bile canalicular pattern). Nevertheless in some cases it is impossible to make a differential diagnosis; the evaluation of new biological parameters like proliferative index will be useful.
