[Clinico-morphological characteristics of lung cancer in women].

On the basis of analysis of the treatment of 2738 patients with lung carcinoma (331 women, 2407 men) it was shown that the leading factors responsible for the course of the disease in women are the morphological structure of the tumor and the form of its growth. The prevailing histological type of lung carcinoma in women was found to be glandular carcinoma. One of the main specific features of lung carcinoma in women is the prevalence of a peripheral form of tumor growth over the central one, which determines specific symptoms and the clinical course of the disease.

[Sympathico-adrenal system in lung cancer].

The functional state of sympatho-adrenal system in pulmonary cancer patients, healthy subjects and cases of pneumonia and tuberculosis is compared. It was established that the tone of sympatho-adrenal system in pulmonary cancer patients is abnormally low. This is apparent at the early stages of malignant disease. Administration of substances which stimulate redox processes in tissues and the activity of vegetative centers leads to normalization of the functional state of sympatho-adrenal system in pulmonary cancer patients.

[Lymphoscanning potentials in the diagnosis of lung cancer metastasis].

Clinical estimation is given of indirect isotope lymphoscanning, performed by intrapulmonary administration of Au-198, for diagnosing lung cancer metastases. The method enables obtaining scannographs of intrathoracic lymphnodes and also, based on the changes in scannograms, judging the presence of lymphogenic metastases. Lymphoscanning is a technically feasible and safe method, it provides comparatively large information for diagnostic purposes and may occupy an important place among other diagnostic technics for ascertaining the extent of lung cancer proliferation.

[Lung cancer morbidity and mortality of the population of the USSR].

The kinetics of the lung cancer morbidity and mortality among the population of this country and the Union Republics is analysed. Both total incidence indices and age coefficients were found to raise. A higher efficacy of treatment for cancer of the lung was noted. The trends for further improvement of its therapy are delineated.

[Multiple primary melanoblastoma of the skin].

The study is based on the literature data and 6 patients with multiple primary melanoblastoma of the skin observed by the authors personally. It was found that multiple primary melanoblastomas of the skin are encountered in 0.54% of cases, as a rule, these are metachronous and more frequently develop in young males, involving symmetric portions of the body. Multiplicity of the tumor process does not aggravate the prognosis. In dispensarization of the patients one should bear in mind not only the possibility of local recurrences and metastases but also the development of multiple melanoblastomas, especially in patients having multiple pigmented naevi.

[Transthoracic puncture in the diagnosis of peripheral cancer of the lung].

Transthoracic needle biopsy was performed in 134 patients with peripheral coin lesions of the lung. The mentioned technic is very valuable diagnostically and enables the precise diagnosis to be established in the vast majority of patients with coin lesions of the lung in the shortest time possible. Transthoracic needle biopsy, when performed properly, is not a hazardous procedure, that makes it possible to recommend this technic for diagnosing peripheral coin lesions of the lung.
