Primary Krukenberg tumour in pregnancy.

The literature on primary Krukenberg tumours in pregnancy is reviewed. 6 cases are reported and all could be accepted as complying with the international classification of primary ovarian tumours. An additional case is presented with mostly osteoplastic metastases and necrosis of the marrow.

[Prognostic factors in early endometrial carcinoma (FIGO stage I)].

The evidence concerning the most important factors related to prognosis in endometrial carcinoma stage I has been reviewed in 500 cases. Histologic differentiation of the tumor and depth of myometrial invasion have been found to be definitely correlated with survival, whereas uterine site in stage I lesions treated by hysterectomy shows no correlation between depth of uterine sounding and survival. Obesity and hypertension influence outcome in cases treated by radiation alone.

[The place of xerography combined with routine conventional mammography (author's transl)].

Xeroradiography is a valuable supplement to conventional mammography, especially in cases with dense glandular structure. In our patient material this new procedure was necessary for clarification of findings on conventional mammography in 16% of cases and improved diagnostic yield. Indirect and direct signs of carcinoma were more easely recognized with xeroradiography, since more detail is visualized because of greater latitude and edge contrast enhancement. Moreover the area visualized is considerably greater. The soft tissue structures can be seen to the level of the thoracic wall. Viewing the films is less tiring than reviewing conventional mammography films. A relatively greater exposure latitude and short exposure times are further advantages of this method.

[Procedure to be followed in cases of suspected changes diagnosed by means of mammography].

As a rule the diagnosis of larger focal lesions of the breast can be easily confirmed by biopsy. Intraoperative localization is more difficult, however, in lesions of below 5 mm diameter as measured by mammography or malignant alterations only indirectly indicated by mammography. Experience to date in 64 patients shows that specimen radiography provides immediate confirmation of large lesions detected by mammography and localizes the area for histologic examination. So far it has been found that precisely those biopsies that are performed as a result of indirect signs of malignancy or of small lesions are the most valuable contributing factor in the early diagnosis of breast cancer.
