[The Pap-test in the study of viral infections of the female genital tract].

The authors underline a synergism of HPV + HSV and HPV + CIN that, together with general immunodeficiency and local factors are responsible for the oncogenesis of cervico carcinoma. This thesis takes on importance after literature reports of an increase of 10% in viral infections from HSV and HPV with a middle incidence of the 1-2% in all the colpocytologic examination cases not in women between 18 and 65 years. To obtain a successful preventive treatment the authors recommend a colpocytologic examination each year, possibly in association with colposcopic, histologic and molecular studies in all HPV positive cases.

[Pap-smear test today].

Remembering the publication of Papanicolau and Traut's monograph in 1943, the authors have realized the use and the spead of the Pap-Smear until the present. They have analyzed the different risks of cervical carcinoma. They think that to obtain a further reduction of the morbidity and the death-rate of such a neoplasia, it is necessary to do a pap-smear examination once a year for women with HPV infection or other risk factors. It is possible in this way, to improve results till the 90%.

[The Pap test in menopause].

In a study covering 156 Pap-tests in menopause, the Authors observed a reduction in infectious phlogosis, in dysplasias and neoplasias. They suggested that even during menopause in the Pap-test showed be conducted to monitor the VIN and a physiological senescence of the female genitalia.

[Laparoscopic total hysterectomy and its complications].

The Authors base their experiences on 135 total laparohysterectomy operations. Of a sample of 39 cases the postoperative lapses have shown complications with a percentage of 28.87% so divided: 25 infectious complications (18.51%); 9 thrombophlebitis (6.66%); 3 vascular lesions (2.22%); 2 intestinal lesions (1.48%). They end by saying that to have good clinical conduction of such operations it is necessary to respect the specific hygienic and preventive rules.

[Prophylactic and therapeutic use of ceftriaxone in cesarean section].

Authors did the antibiotic-prophylaxis with ceftriaxone in twenty cesarean sections (1 phial EV). Prophylaxis was sufficient in thirteen cases; on the other hand, in the remaining seven prophylaxis was followed by the three days therapy (1 phial EV). A good tolerance of the medicine was revealed in all cases. Moreover, it was tested a wide antimicrobial action with resolution of all the verified infections, except for one bacterial resistance case where some other antibiotic was used.

[Preventive and therapeutic use of cefriaxon in gynecologic surgery].

The Authors have been investigating the behaviour of ceftriaxone in gynecological surgery employing 1 g of the drug through intravenous injection an hour before the operation, after executing a cutaneous pomphus the night before. They obtained satisfactory results since out of 25 cases analyzed nowhere had they to intervene with other antibiotics. The drug, despite the 15 cases of infectious pathology observed, has been showing great tolerance and an utmost ease and usefulness of usage.

[Value of the Pap-test in the cervical cytological screening].

Fourteen thousand three hundred fifty six cervical smears were performed in the Obstetric and gynaecologic Department of Casorate Primo Hospital (USSL no. 77) and Oncologic Center of Milan (USSL no. 75/II) between 1-1-1987 and 30-6-1991. The incidence and mortality of uterine cervix neoplasm are discussed and the uterine cervix neoplasm are discussed and the analysis of data shows a reduction of this cancer in all countries. In italy it is estimated that the incidence is of 20.88 per 1000,000 women of all ages.

[Changes in sexual behavior of women receiving substitution therapy after surgical menopause and women in physiological menopause].

We have made this study with the aim of comparing changes in sexuality between women who are in surgical menopause taking a substitutive therapy and those who are in physiological menopause. We have used a questionnaire instrument. It has been filled in by a physician during an individual conversation with the women. The results showed that sexuality valued through the parameters of satisfaction, coital frequency and desire, has been have penalized in the first group than in the second. It can be said that the trauma linked to hysterosalpingo-oophorectomy provokes alterations in sexuality which are not sufficiently counterbalanced by substitutive estrogenic therapy.

[Cytological study of an inflammatory type Pap-test].

The paper reports the results of the study of 900 s of which 630 were of an inflammatory type (70%). The age group most severely affected by phlogosis was that between 35-45 years old with the highest frequency in the group aged between 35-39 years old. Associated pathologies were found in 191 cases (21.2%), with bacterial infections in 101 cases (11.2%), candida in 43 cases (4.8%), T.V. in 17 cases (1.9%), viral infections in 10 cases (1.1%), CIN in 14 cases (1.5%) and malignant tumours in 2 cases (0.22%).

[Cases of endometrial hyperplasia diagnosed at a regional hospital in the Province of Pavia].

Two hundred and fourteen cases of endometrial hyperplasia were diagnosed at the Hospital of Casorate (USSL 77, Pavia) between 1 january 1984 and 31 december 1989. Cases were subdivided as follows: 60 glandular hyperplasias, 54 glandular cystic hyperplasias, 83 adenomatous glandular hyperplasias, 13 atypical glandular hyperplasias and 24 cases of endometrial cancer. The analysis of data shows an increase in hyperplasia, but only the adenomatous and atypical varieties have a potentially carcinomatous evolution.

[Short term post-surgical prophylaxis in gynecology. Use of cefonicid].

In this study the Authors have evaluated the use of cefonicid in "short-term" post-surgical prophylaxis in gynecology. No effects, nor alteration to hematochemical parameters related to the administration of this medicine have been observed and the analysis of data shows that the use of cefonicid contributes to reducing the incidence of post-surgical infections in hospital in a cure group compared to a control group.

[Non-stress test. Evaluation of a new scheme for reading the results].

The reliability of a new Non-Stress Test reading protocol is assessed. The protocol provides for an assessment time of between 20 and 60 minutes and considers deceleration as an additional parameter to the ones commonly used. The results confirm the importance of both these factors in reducing the number of false positives.
