[Intestinal carcinoid. A propos of a case].

In this paper the authors report a case of carcinoid neoplasm in a rare localization like sigmoid colon. They describe the clinical and biological aspects of this kind of tumors, with particular regard to the tumor site and its biochemical products. A rational and prompt clinical approach to this neoplasm is considered important for the good chance of long survivals, achievable in the case of early diagnosis.

[Percutaneous angioplasty in the treatment of iliac artery stenosis].

PTA represents a slightly invasive method for treatment of iliac arteries stenoses. The Authors present their experience about this topic and discuss current indications in the use of this technique. They believe that beyond the already defined indications, such as treatment of short stenoses, transluminal angioplasty can be employed for long stenoses too, eventually combined with limited surgical procedures. They stress the importance of combining traditional PTA with new percutaneous or intraoperative Argon Laser technology, that surely will contribute to broad its indications and to improve its results.
