[Sexuality. Cultural, social and clinical aspects].

The deep changes in values, beliefs and behaviour, both individual and group, have been examined, referred to the sexuality, by various methods and prospects. Sexual differentiation, typical of the plast, has been rediscussed and modified. As a result of these changes we can talk about old myths, concerning the conception of sexuality in the past, and new myths that concern the present. In this work we have reviewed the different aspects of male and female roles: masturbation, the obsession abort performance, the orgasm and, not last, the sexuality in old age condition.

[Epidemiologic psychiatric investigation in the community health district of Avezzano].

The aim of the epidemiological psychiatric survey carried out among the users of the Mental Hygiene Centre of Avezzano local health district was to study the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of participants. Data for patients for the years 1979 and 1989 were collected and analysed by studying all clinical records registered during those periods. This choice reflected the need compare user characteristics and methods of using the service following the introduction of the reform decree no. 180/1978. The aim of this retrospective epidemiological survey was to obtain data and information which would serve to formulate answers which responded to the needs expressed by users. The results revealed a heterogenous territorial distribution of psychiatric cases and this provided some indication for the realisation of a complex network of psychiatric network in the Avezzano health district.

[Lumbosacral extraspinal ependymomas. Review of literature and report of an operated case].

The extradural lumbosacral localization represents for ependymomas an exceptional event full of interest both from an etiopathogenetic point of view and from a clinical one. Extradural ependymomas develop in two characteristic sites: with an anterior or presacral expression in the retro-rectal pelvic area; posterior in the intergluteal space below the lumbo-sacral fascia. The possibilities of a correct diagnosis are based essentially on radiographical examinations and CAT which supply useful factors, but not peculiar to the lesion. The Authors describe a case of posterior "extradural lumbo-sacral ependymomas" which is added to the 36 already reported.
