[Spontaneous splenic rupture in a patient with cytomegalovirus infection].

The Authors report a case of spontaneous splenic rupture in a patient with Cytomegalovirus infection, stress the main characteristics of this infection and describe the mechanism that, during the viral infection, causes morphological and functional alterations of the spleen. The hypersplenism secondary to hyperfunctioning, the formation of immunocomplexes with secondary infarction, mainly of the white pulp, and the disseminated intravascular coagulation are responsible, as in the observed case, of the rupture of splenic capsula. The Authors conclude that the wide diffusion of Cytomegalovirus infection needs the knowledge of all the pathologic signs of this infection to make a timely diagnosis and treatment.

[Idiopathic gynecomastia: our experience].

The Authors reporting their experience, discuss some concepts about physiologic evolution of male and female breast. They distinguish between real and false gynaecomastia; stressing the causes of abnormal development of male breast and morphopathological characteristics of gynaecomastia. Careful diagnostic protocol is necessary for a therapeutic approach based on traditional surgery or liposuction: it depends on prevalence of glandular or adipose breast's tissue.

[Color-Doppler sonographic mapping for the choice of treatment in variceal disease].

The Authors, after having reported Huch's classification concerning both large and small saphenas varixes, make a short historical excursus about the most significant operative methods. Then they start explaining how a correct therapeutic approach can't be done without a careful hemodynamic study. After having given data about their case-report, they conclude affirming how today the duplex-scanner permits to obtain an excellent radicality also with not very invasive techniques.

[Antibiotic and immunostimulating prophylaxis in colorectal surgery].

The Authors, after considering post-operatory sepsis as cause of failures and as an important economic damage, make among them a distinction according to the arising area and to the seriousness of their manifestations. They, later, describe corrective and prophylactic measures which in colo-rectal surgery ase campulsory assumptions for sepsis prevention. After relating their experience, Authors reaffirm short-term protocol validity and point out validity of alternation of large spectrum molecules in order to avoid possible arising of bacterial resistances.

[Miles operation in rectal carcinoma: history and current status].

The Authors confirm how the advent of mechanical suture has directed the management of rectal carcinoma to an increasingly conservative attitude. In reporting their experience--which consists of about twenty years (222 patients) they specify how not only an increased incidence of recurrence has not appeared, but they have also observed a reduction of theirs (-5.2%). They then attempt to outline basic moments which have characterized the history of rectal carcinoma surgery and they state how today, 80 years since it was conceived, Miles' intervention maintains its validity, even if with more restrictive indications.

[Intrahepatic biliary lithiasis: experience in 20 years].

In confirming that intrahepatic gallstones don't represent a frequent disease in western countries, Authors specify how this incidence is going to grow up slowly, but in a progressive way. In reporting their experience since 1980 to nowadays they point out how different diagnostic procedures and therapy way of acting were in the first and in the second deca. After having explained actual therapeutic direction that is described in literature, they finish by stating how this is often conditioned by complex anatomicopathological picture and by seriousness of hepatic damage that often comes with intrahepatic lithiasis.

[Anastomotic dehiscence in colorectal surgery].

Anastomotic leakage represents the most dangerous complication in digestive surgery and, particularly, in colorectal one. Indeed a careful evaluation and modification of all possible risk factors and a correct procedure aren't often enough to overcome a potential postoperative leakage or at least material filtration. The Authors review their series to analyse the role of all possible general and local risk factors and to verify what conditions can suggest an two or three stages operation.

[GIST of the jejuno-ileal tract].

Jejunum-ileum stromal tumors give diagnostic and therapeutical problems, especially with regard to histopathological identification and biological behavior. These tumors are very rare in all case report. After gastric stromal tumors these ones are the most frequent of all alimentary tract. They are often incidentally found; because of their potential transformation, they have to be treated by respecting oncologic eradication standards and observing prognostic criteria based on a correct histopathological evaluation (neoplasm localization and dimension, its structure, presence of cytological atypisms, mitotic index, ploidia, surgical resection). Then there has to be a good follow-up program.

[Mechanical intestinal occlusion due to phytobezoars].

The Authors reporting two cases with ileus by phytobezoar in distal jejunum and ileum, respectively, and discuss the pathophysiologic mechanism responsible for the formation of bezoars. They expose the etiological and clinical factors of this uncommon cause of small bowel obstruction and also discuss the surgical technique that consists in the removal of the phytobezoar through enterotomy.

[A rare salivary gland neoplasm: cystadenolymphoma].

The authors, after having examined three recent cases, explain some basic concepts about diagnostics and therapy in cystadenolymphoma of salivary glands. As a matter of fact this neoplasia, in spite of its low frequency, is very important because of its still controversial etiopathology and recent tendency in increasing its incidence in females. Today the diagnostic protocol, undertaken after clinical examination, which is necessary, consists of ultrasonography or computerized tomography. But only postoperative histological examination gives a sure diagnosis and can point out main histomorphological characteristics of tumour. Therapeutic approach can be limited to conservative treatment, which is able to respect the parotid gland, its vascularization and innervation.

[Diagnosis and treatment of Crohn's disease].

The Authors state their ideas and report their experience about diagnosis and treatment of Crohn's disease. After having treated risk and etiological factors, they discuss typical anatomo-pathological lesions. Then they explain clinical diagnostic and surgical choices extensively: they prefer laparotomic approach. The Author's conclude that timely diagnosis spare heavy complications.

[Ileum-colon junction benign obstructions].

The Authors discuss on anatomical and functional characteristics of ileum-colon junction, physiological narrowing in alimentary tract and often involved in benign obstruction. They report their series and analyze all inflammatory or not inflammatory diseases potentially involved, by describing them shortly and giving some information about their clinical features and imaging. The treatment of this obstruction will be done as soon as possible, before wall lesions force to make a larger resection.

[Etiopathogenic hypothesis on carcinoma of the gallbladder: our study].

The authors are interested in determining causes of gallbladder cancer (GBC). By this intention, they theorize a correlation between genetic modifications (which are responsible of malignant transformation of biliary epithelium) and some intestinal infections. From 1999 to 2004 they observed 15 GBC and all 15 gallbladder have been analyzed histologically and from microbiological aspect; by these means from 1999 till 2004 they have studied also 30 persons with colelithiasis. The authors noticed that bile of both groups contained, in three cases in the first and in 8 cases in the second, a germ named Escherichia Coli which normally lives in intestine, while in 10 operated gallbladders of the first group and 12 of the second there was a positive for k-ras. They are studying to confirm their theories.

[Treatment of skin neoplasms with polidocanol infiltrations. Our experience].

The authors try to explain the importance of day surgery today. They report their 5 years experience in treatment of face and neck skin neoplasms by injections of a sclerosant product as hydropolyethoxydodecan, in case of a difficult good esthetic result with surgery or other therapies because of patients general conditions, such as diabetic ones, or because of their viral nature. Then they affirm to have treated 350 benign and malign tumors with this method. All subjects presented a complete resolution of disease in few weeks and none between them controlled has actually complications or recruitment of neoplasm. They conclude by saying that this result is probably due to local ischemic reaction caused by the substance used.
