[Simultaneous occurrence of adenocarcinoma of the prostate in a father and son].

We describe two cases of adenocarcinoma of the prostate, which deserve being commented because of the unusual features of their occurrence. These were two stage D2 adenocarcinomas discovered within one year in a father and his son. One of the tumors was identified following hemostatic disorders. Thus three aspects of carcinoma of the prostate are studied: their possible occurrence in younger patients, the paraneoplastic disorders of coagulation, and the familial forms.

Contribution to the study of the arterial nutrition of the cervical spinal cord.

The feeding of the anterior spinal artery of the cervical cord is very poor. Angiographic studies have shown that only two to three radiculomedullar arteries assure the feeding of this arterial axis. Since it is possible that smaller feeding arteries exist, which are not visible on a conventional X-ray study, we have reviewed cases with arteriovenous aneurysms or vascularized tumors in the cervical region, and obstructions of the vertebral arteries. In these cases, the feeding arteries may be hypertrophic. In spite of being hypertrophic, their number is not increased, and the statistical proportion is the same as in the studies carried out in normal cases.

A study of the aeromycoflora of Cádiz: relationship to anthropogenic activity.

We describe a quantitative and qualitative study of the fungal spores found in the air of Cádiz during 1989 using a Cour-type trap. The results of this study can be extrapolated to other coastal cities of southern Europe with a Mediterranean climate. The spores identified have been classified into 25 taxonomic categories. The most abundant were Cladosporium, Chaetomium and Ustilago, and the most frequent, in addition to those mentioned, were Alternaria, Ascophyta and Venturia. The great abundance of Cladosporium is in accordance with the coastal situation of the city. Cladosporium, Alternaria, Curvularia and Stemphylium reached maximum concentrations jointly in October, 1989. They showed mutual cross-reactions. Ustilago and Nigrospora appeared during the period of cereal harvesting and storage.

[Fibroepithelial polyp of the ureter. Report of a new case].

Fibroepithelial polyps are rare benign tumours presenting in one every hundred cases of ureter primitive tumours. Interest on this type of pathology is founded in its low incidence and on being able to reach a pre-operative diagnosis prior to taking surgical action. Uretero-renoscopy is currently the best method available for the identification and histological diagnosis of this polyp.

[Verrucous carcinoma of the penis. Presentation of 3 new cases].

Penis carcinoma shows an incidence between 0.3-1% of all male neoplasias. The verruciform variety represents 5-10% of total penis carcinoma. Verruciform carcinoma is a variety of squamous carcinoma presenting a usually benign behaviour and related to some virus species (H.P.V.). Three cases are presented with ages ranging between 47-87 years-old, all of which undergoing partial penectomy, their progression being monitored for two years.
