[Surgical attitude in cancer of the ovary].
The authors start from the observation that some of the clinical forms of ovarian cancers determine hospitalization and resolution of the cases in surgical departments. They have also based their study on their personal experience acquired over a period of 20 years, during which they have operated on 180 patients. They noted that the best surgical attitude was not adopted in all of the cases and make an analysis of various methods applied, such as the radical ones, the conservative procedures, and those aimed at a reduction of the tumoral mass. The value of associated therapies is presented, consisting in surgery, chemotherapy and irradiation.

[Benign hepatic tumors].
A total of 30 cases are presented, of benign hepatic tumours. As a result of the confrontation of data from the literature with the personal experience of the authors has evidenced the diagnostic difficulties in patients with benign hepatic tumors, especially because these can be erroneously considered as either malignant tumours or as liver cirrhosis. The clinical and the para-clinical pictures are not suggestive in all the cases, and the necessity arises of histopathologic confirmation which can be achieved by puncture and cytologic examination, or by intra-surgery biopsy. This is particularly useful because some of the benign hepatic tumours may benefit from a radical surgical treatment.
Turner's syndrome with sympathoblastoma.
A case of Turner's syndrome clinically and cytogenetically diagnosed in a 15-year old girl is reported. At age 4 the girl was hospitalized for renal malformations (doubling of the urethra and its ectopic opening). Laparatomy revealed a small tumoral formation which was removed. The diagnosis established anatomo-histologically was of sympathoblastoma. Since the tumor is genetically conditioned by an autosomal mutation, association of the gonosomial anomaly and sympathoblastoma is supposed to be fortuitious though it is not improbable that the tumor be the result of an embryonar disorder favourized by the chromosomal anomaly.
