[Tumor marker ca. 125 in acute pelvic inflammations].

The paper reports a case of acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID): the symptoms, diagnostic treatment and therapy, which was carried out according to standard protocols, the operation and the postoperative period were all fully correlated with serum concentrations of the marker ca. 125. Above all, a close interdependence was observed between the clinical regression of disease and the parallel reduction of marker serum levels. The graphic curve of ca. 125 was compared during the postoperative period to the curves expressed by the levels of GB and VES values. The method of monitoring highlighted the parallelism of the three curves with a particular affinity between the ca. 125 and GB curves.

[Clinical patterns of fibrocystic mastopathy in relation to parity and age].

Two thousand five hundred and twenty cases of fibrocystic mastopathy (FCM) were chosen from a vast population of patients examined during the period from 1980 to 1989. The main clinical symptoms of FCM were assessed in relation to their evolution according to age and parity. Correlations were observed between the clinical symptoms examined and the age range of patients. Parity was also significantly correlated to clinical symptoms of FCM.

[Voluntary interruption of pregnancy in an area hospital on the outskirts of Turin].

Data pertaining to a series of 457 cases of voluntary termination of pregnancy at the Rivoli Infirmary Obstetrics and Gynaecology Division are presented. The patients were divided into three groups by weeks of amenorrhoea. The parameters investigated were: age, parity, previous spontaneous and artificial abortions, and complications observed 60 days after the operation. Percentage data were evaluated in terms of age, marital status, number of children, socioeconomic group, and reasons for termination. Lastly, percentages of dissent and consent on the part of the male partner were also worked out.

[Special obstetrico-gynecologic hospital structure and local service units. Considerations on the availability and need for ULS 35 and 36].

The underlying principles of the national health reform measures and those approved by the Piedmont Region's programmes with regard to social and health reorganisation are recalled. Reference is made to anomalies with respect to local health services No. 35 and No. 36 in the case of obstetrics and gynaecology, there being three maternity departments for 97,251 inhabitants in the area concerned. The main aspects of the division are examined. It is shown that implementation will only be possible if there is a usership capable of feeding every branch of the structure set up. It is suggested that the specialist activities of obstetrics and gynaecology be concentrated at Susa and Avigliana, though oven this division will not ensure a proper flow of users. The position could be improved by better employment of the basic structures, i.e. the consulting surgeries and SAUB out-patient departments.
