Male genital condylomatosis in partners of females affected with HPV infections. Clinical statistical contribution.
After a brief introduction, the Authors report the results of a clinical-"peniscopic" study of the genital regions in 56 male patients who were partners of females affected with genital condylomatoses. The results obtained show the importance of examining the male genital region under high magnification (peniscopy), especially if we consider recent research which indicates the close relationship between HPV, VIN, CIN and carcinoma of the cervix.
Cell-mediated immunity and condylomatosis.
Cell-mediated response in 60 patients affected by acuminated condylomas has been studied; this was investigated with aspecific in vivo tests (intradermal-reaction with tuberculin, trichophytin, candidine) and by in vitro tests (blood test with cell count, lymphocyte typing, serum proteins, serum immunoglobulin) and was compared with a control group. The results obtained confirm the hypothesis that condylomas acuminata usually occurs in patients with well-preserved cell-mediated immunity.
Cervical polyps: a colpo-cyto-histological study.
From a review of 1477 polyps of the cervical canal it appears that these very frequent lesions occur between the ages of 41 and 50 in relation to the disendocrine picture which characterises that age. The histological point of view reveals a picture in which the adenomatous variety predominates, followed by the mixed forms. The Authors, following colposcopic checking repeated in time on the same patients, are able to demonstrate that squamous metaplasia may originate in the subcylindrical reserve cells. There have not been cases of carcinomatous degeneration, inasmuch as their only case proved to be a metastasis of continuity from a carcinoma of the cervix, for which reason such neoplasias are not be considered precancerous lesions.

Comparison between the diagnostic validity of cytology and histology in preneoplastic and neoplastic endometrial pathology.
With the aim of defining a program of prevention for preneoplastic and neoplastic endometrial pathology which guarantees a valid, accurate and cost-contained diagnosis, 476 women considered at risk were examined. All the patients were first submitted to cytologic endocavitary withdrawal and subsequently to aspirated curettage. The cytologic and the histologic diagnoses proved concordant in 72.3% of cases of non-pathologic endometrium, in only 68.7% of preneoplastic pathology, and in 72.7% of neoplastic pathology. The non-interpretable pictures had a notable incidence (21.7%). The AA., while recognising the validity of cytology in cases of carcinoma, underline the difficulties in the diagnosis of preneoplastic lesions, and conclude that in doubtful or positive cases and subjects at risk a histologic enquiry is always necessary.
The bollous cervico-vaginal pathology.
The Authors examine bollous cervico-vaginal pathology on the basis of their experience. Morphological characteristics and histological features of the examined pathology is described.
