[Surgery of bone metastases in advanced age?].

Twenty-seven patients over 70 years of age (1990-1995, n = 100) achieved a stabilisation of skeletal metastasis; preventive (10), or after pathological fracture (17). Medullary pins were preferred to compound osteosynthesis. In all cases the operation was of a palliative nature, but resulted in considerable relief from pain, facilitated nursing or even improved ability to walk. Thus old age is not an indication against palliative stabilisation of skeletal metastasis.

[Cancer prevention of the skin].

Skin cancer is the most common human carcinoma. There has been a dramatic increase of the incidence over the last decades. This trend is very likely caused by the increased UV-light exposition of the population. Whereas basalioma and spinalioma as the most frequent types of skin cancer have a low mortality, the bad prognosis of malignant melanoma is the reason for the 100% increase of the mortality rate over the last ten years. Cancer prophylaxis means the early detection of precancerous or suspect lesions. Popular information on the risk and a more generous indication for excision are the best instruments to lower the mortality of skin cancer.
