[Lymphographic studies into lymphogenic expansion of malignant ovarian tumours (author's transl)].

Malignant ovarian tumours in 199 patients were studied for their lymphogenic expansion, depending on histological tumour types and on criteria for classification by stage. The condition of the tumour capsule was found to be the most important indicator to incipient lymphogenic dissemination, with an exception being recordable only from dysgerminomas. These insights together with additional considerations have formed a background against which recommendations are made for indications for lymphography of patients with malignant ovarian tumours.

Twelve years of experience with percutaneous, paravascular biopsy of pelvic lymph nodes.

Twelve years of experience with paravascular percutaneous biopsy of iliac lymph nodes is described. The technique has been performed in 150 patients with equivocal lymphographic diagnoses or with clinical symptoms of malignant disease without peripheral lymphadenopathy. The method is simple and has few complications. No diagnosis has proved to be falsee positive, while in eight per cent of the cases fals negative diagnoses were found. In nine per cent of the patients the results were unacceptable for technical reasons. The method is useful only for biopsy of external iliac lymph nodes. A further study has been initiated to compare the results of the paravascular and the transperitoneal biopsy techniques.
