[The role of endoscopic polypectomy in the prevention of cancer of the colon].

After briefly analyzing the concept and genesis of dysplasia starting with the normal large bowel cell and then illustrating the polyp-carcinoma sequence, the authors report on their experience with 283 endoscopic polypectomies in a total of 1.875 patients undergoing endoscopy of the rectum, sigmoid and large bowel since 1980. Forty-nine polyps presented severe dysplasia, and 38 had already degenerated to carcinoma; nine of the carcinomas had invaded the stalk and the patients were subjected to resection of the colon and mesocolon, lymph-node metastases being observed in 1 case.

Abdominal aortic coarctation inducing aortic occlusion and renovascular hypertension.

Abdominal aortic coarctation is a rare, non-atherosclerotic disease. It is a functionally significant at an early age when associated with aortic branch stenosis and renovascular hypertension. The pathogenesis of aortic constrictive lesions remains unknown, but may be related to developmental error or aortic growth arrest and various hypotheses have been reported. When the renal arteries are involved by the coarctation, severe hypertension is common at an early age and in untreated patients, life-threatening complications commonly occur. Patients who reach the age of 40 years generally have the coarctation below the renal arteries but even when the renal arteries are not involved by the coarctation, renovascular disease may still occur due to secondary atherosclerosis. Aortic thrombosis secondary to abdominal aortic coarctation with renovascular disease and lower limb ischemia, occurring in a 63-year old woman, is reported.
