[Fibroadenoma in an accessory breast. A case of polythelia and fibroadenoma in the left breast region and a perivulvar accessory breast].

The case of a 32-year-old female patient with multiple malformations (hare-lip, polythelia, fibroadenoma in an accessory mammary gland) and independent of these, another fibroadenoma in the breast is reported. The fibroadenoma developing in the accessory breast around the vulva, diagnosed by means of aspiration biopsy cytology, should be payed special attention. This case also confirms the applicability in preoperative diagnostics of aspiration biopsy cytology, a method which has proved to be effective for years.

[Aspiration biopsy cytology of the diseases of the mammary gland (author's transl)].

A detailed report is given on the results of aspiration cytology used in 612 patients. On the basis of his own experiences he speaks high of cytodiagnostics in the complex of cyto-radio-clinical triplet, where its value may reach 98-100% to the contrary of 60-88% of the other two components. It is rapid, trustful, undangerous, in everyday practice is suggested at every place, where the personal and objective conditions are guaranteed.

[Significance of the exfoliative cytodiagnosis in cases of Paget's disease of the nipple (author's transl)].

8 cases of Paget's disease of the nipple were diagnosed by means of cytological examination: in 6 patients by exfoliative, in 2 patients by aspiration biopsy cytology. The diagnoses were verified histologically. Early exfoliative cytology is recommended for early diagnosis in all cases of Paget's mamillae. This method is quick, safe, easily to be carried into effect and to apply repeatedly; but, if the process is suspected of malignancy, a trial-excision has to be carried out. A well-trained cytologist rarely needs the latter. This simple method will reduce the development of advanced Paget's disease.

[Fine needle puncture of mesenchymal malignant growths of the mammary gland].

From 1967 to 1978 the author made 612 fine needle biopsies of the mamma (415 benignant, 197 malignant cases). Among malignant cases there were 11 primary (2 fusocellular, 1 rotundocellular sarcomas, 1 chondromyxosarcoma, 1 leiomyosarcoma, 1 melanoblastoma, 1 angiosarcoma, 4 malignant cystosarcomas phylloides) and 4 metastatic (1 rotundocellular, 1 reticulocellular, 2 melanoblastomas) sarcomas. The author gives a detailed report on cytomorphology, histology and diagnostical problems of mesenchymal malignomas. He thinks the practical value of fine needle biopsy important in the preoperative diagnostics of sarcomas in the mamma. On the basis of his experiences obtained during years, he considers it undangerous and recommends its daily use in practice.

[(Gynecomastia as precancerous lesion: aspiration biopsy cytology and its histology)].

In 19 of 39 patients suffering from gynecomastia, between 1967 and 1979 aspiration biopsy cytology and surgery was performed by the author. Atypia and precancerous lesions accompanied by an advanced stage of epithelial proliferation were found in two cases, in two other ones, in addition to the above mentioned lesions, breast cancer was discovered. The myoepithelial elements observed cytologically and histologically are important pathognomonic signs in theses patients. In spite of the few cases, the precancerous nature of gynecomastia, primarily in its proliferative forms, manifests itself.

[Effect of bilateral and unilateral electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) on the composition of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). A possibility to calculate the intracellular redox changes of the brain in humans (author's transl)].

The changes in the composition of CSF and venous blood under the effect of bilateral and unilateral ECT were studied. The intracellular redox changes during the therapy were calculated on the basis of experimental data. Of the patients, 27 were treated with bilateral, another 27 with unilateral ECT. Just before the electroshock, the patients were paralyzed with intravenous succinylcholine chloride and were artificially ventilated with O2. The characteristic change we found was the augmentation of pyruvate concentration in CSF. This change and the calculated shift of NADH/NAD+ ratio in the direction of oxidation refer to the disturbance of the function of enzymes which play a role in the oxidation-reduction processes.
