Post-menopausal bleeding.

PMB is a common symptom, which is associated with approximately a 20% incidence of malignancy in the genital tract. Every effort, therefore, needs to be made to exclude adenocarcinoma of the uterus, a condition with a good prognosis if an early diagnosis is made. In most other patients the cause of PMB is minor and can readily be controlled.

The use of a computer in an obstetric department.

Experience with a computer in an obstetric department is presented. A regular statistical analysis of the work of the department was readily available and computer printed summaries were produced for 86 per cent of the patients within one week of their discharge home. Solutions to problems encountered are discussed. It is concluded that a computer can be used economically and advantageously in this way even in hospitals without a computer on site. Future developments in the use of the computer are outlined.

Ovarian cytology. An application of cytology in an attempt at the early detection of ovarian carcinoma.

The possibility of detecting pre-clinical ovarian carcinoma by ovarian cytology taken at the time of laparotomy has been studied in 472 patients. Malignant cells have been recovered from ovarian carcinomas but never from macroscopically normal ovaries. It is suggested that this simple, inexpensive technique of sampling cells from the ovarian surface should be continued to be practised on all occasions at which ovaries present such as at laparotomy or at laparoscopy, as with further experience this technique may prove to be of help in the early diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma.
