[Connections between the phrenic arteries and various visceral arteries].

During an angiographic research carried out over more than 1100 cases, some connections between the phrenic arteries and the arteries of the hepatic, superior mesenteric and renal districts were observed. The AA. point out the presence of these connections even of thin calibre, their right prevalence (71%), and their uncertain embryologic origin.

[The origin of the arteria sigmoidea ima].

The authors report the results of their observations on the lowest sigmoid artery, carried out on 92 anatomical specimens coming from surgical operations on the sigmoid and rectum. The specimens were injected and radiographed immediately after their removal . The observations were often preceded by pre-operative angiographies performed for diagnostic reasons. The AA. document all the variational patterns of this artery. They confirm the poor functional value of this artery more known by the old surgeons than by the anatomists.

[The termination of the superior hemorrhoidal artery. An anatomicoradiological study].

The author report the observations carried out on the distal part of the hemorrhoidal artery, obtained with a research on the vascularization of the large intestine, studied by the angiographic method and injection of the c.m. in the anatomical specimen immediately after surgical extirpation. The study was based on 92 anatomical specimens and reveals a variability of the terminal arterial distribution which can be summarized in few more frequent models, but cannot be given an absolute rule.

[Gastric lymphoma: diagnostic radiology in the staging of the disease].

In the staging of gastric lymphoma, the radiologist has very important role, because he has many means to define correctly the stage. Conventional radiology is useful for detection of the lesion. Moreover, Ultrasound, Computed Tomography, and Magnetic Resonance are useful to define parietal extension and eventual nodal involvement. Lymphography remains a study kept to negative or doubt cases. In the future, the Magnetic Resonance will have a bigger role than now, in the definition of abdominal and pelvis nodal involvement.
