[THe role of biopsy in the early diagnosis of cancer of the cervix uteri].

Among the actions of early diagnosis of uterine cervix cancers, the sequence cytologic smear, colposcopy, cervix biopsy is well-known. The authors draw the attention that in some situations the cytologic smear and colposcopy are not sufficient and it is only biopsy that defines the nature of the lesion and may give therapeutic indications. Out of a series of 55 women to whom a cervix biopsy was performed, there were 27 cases in which biopsy was justified, showing either a severe lesion or the presence of koilocytes. The authors plead for a more frequent use of cervix biopsy as a means of early diagnosis of uterine cervix cancer or of its dysplasias.

[The psycho-relational aspects of the psychopathological dynamics and profile in postpartum mental disorders in the county of Iaşi in 1988-1993].

642 cases of mental disorder occurring or aggravating during the evolution of a pregnancy or postpartum assisted at the "Socola" University Hospital of Psychiatry in the interval 1988-1993 were analyzed. In 91 (38.39%) of these cases the postpartum mental disorders occurred in the absence of a psychotic psychiatric history. Based on a computerized record, the psycho-social factors with a potential pathologic risk were analyzed dynamically. The influence of social dynamics on the incidence and psychopathologic profile of mental disturbances with onset in the postpartum was evidenced, a somewhat paradoxical correlation of the frequency of these disorders with the dynamics of abortions and not with that of deliveries being underlined. Characteristic to these patients would be a lower education level, a more labile biological and psychological structure, the absence of obstetrical history and marital relational problems. An increased incidence of some postnatal complications in the evolution of these women' newborns was also found.
