Delayed films in bronchography.

In bronchography, the oil often does not fill all bronchial branches. Films taken 30 to 60 minutes later frequently complete the opacification of bronchi in lingula, middle lobe and lower lobes. Such delayed films may demonstrate bronchiectasis not shown initially, or may exclude bronchiectasis suspected on the first films.

The incidence of splenic metastasis of carcinoma.

The incidence of metastases to the spleen observed at autopsy in a series of 1,000 consecutive cases of malignant neoplasms of epithelial origin was 9 per cent; in a group of 104 cases of malignant neoplasms of non-epithelial origin, the spleen was involved in 45 per cent. These data do not support the contention that metastasis to the spleen is rare, or that the spleen possesses anti-neoplastic properties.
