[The diagnostic and therapeutic validity of pneumoradiography of breast cysts in the light of personal experience with 236 cases].

Personal experience of 236 breast cyst aspirations is reported. In 224 cases, insufflation was also successful and pneumocystomammography was carried out, associated always with cytological examination of the aspirated fluid. In 2 cases, the examination made possible a diagnosis of cyst degeneration (0.8%). The number of recurrences was minimal (2.8%). It is concluded that the technique is diagnostically and therapeutically useful.

Trumpet maneuver for visual and CT examination of the pyriform sinus and retrocricoid area.

The trumpet maneuver, a technique to inflate the hypopharynx with air, allows visualization of the pyriform sinuses and retrocricoid area during both fiberoptic examination and CT scanning. The technique is useful in delineating both normal and abnormal anatomy, and is especially useful in the evaluation of patients with hypopharyngeal symptoms in whom there is a low suspicion of anatomic disease. The methods, endoscopic photographs, and CT scan images are presented.
