[Esophageal diverticulum--indications for surgical therapy and late results].

63 cases of oesophageal diverticulum were analysed, and surgical therapy was chosen for 45 of them. Most of them were located in the cervical region of the oesophagus (44.4 per cent). Cervical and intrathoracic diverticula or those causing pain and possible bleeding were indications for surgical treatment. No postoperative complications occurred to the above patients. Recurrence was observed in three of 28 cases, following surgery for Zenker's diverticulum. No complaints at all were recordable from 79 per cent of the patients in follow-up checks after surgery.

[Current problems in breast cancer].

From 1951 to 1975 1087 patients (1075 women, 12 men) suffering from breast cancer were seen at the Surgical Clinic of Jena (GDR). Late results of 988 patients could now be evaluated. Adjuvant chemotherapy becomes increasingly important due to early metastatic spread after radical surgery. Long-term studies, however, have to be waited for until a final assessment of efficiency can be made.
