The effects of teaching medical students psychotherapy skills in the outpatient department.

A psychiatric clerkship which emphasizes a clinical exposure to the conduct of outpatient psychodynamic psychotherapy is described and evaluated. Compared to more traditional inpatient based clerkships, an outpatient psychotherapy-oriented clerkship attracts significantly greater numbers of students. In addition, medical students taking such a rotation rate its educational value on its completion significantly more positively compared to other clerkship sites. Finally, students taking the psychotherapy oriented clerkship opt for psychiatry as a specialty significantly more frequently than students taking the more traditional clerkships. The impact of such a learning experience on interpersonal skills with non-psychiatric, medical patients is also discussed.

A fourteen year practice with the fine needle aspiration biopsy of the thyroid in an endemic area.

In our institute from 1970 to 1983 12,829 fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNB) of the thyroid were cytologically examined. Cytologically unsatisfactory specimens were found in 17.7%. 2,709 patients with representative cytological findings were operated and histological examinations were performed. The cytological and histological findings were correlated. There was a false-negative rate of 2.0% and a false-positive rate of 18.4%. Furthermore we divided the results into two time periods (1970-1977 and 1978-1983) because of a change in the indication for surgery in the last years. Although the indication has changed, cytological findings of both time periods investigated were almost similar.

The effects of teaching clinical clerks psychotherapy skills in the outpatient department.

We have described a psychiatric clerkship which is highlighted by a clinical exposure for the students to the practice of psychodynamic psychotherapy on relatively well-functioning outpatients. Students assigned this rotation are shown to opt for psychiatry significantly more often and rate the educational experience as significantly more positive when compared to psychiatry clerks other teaching hospitals which do not emphasize this clinical experience in outpatient psychotherapy. In addition, students undergoing this type of clerkship are shown to significantly improve in their ability to the histories and interact with medically ill patients, suggesting a further beneficial effect of the experience in conducting psychotherapy during the clerkship.

[Quantitative Cytochemical and Morphometric Investigations on Uterine Angiomatosis (Endolymphatis Stromal Myosis) and Stromal Sarcoma].

The angiomatosis uteri shows a low scattering of nuclear DNA content; an euploid DNA stem line suggests a benign behavior in these tumors. This evidence is supported by clinical experiences. The endometrial stromal sarcoma and the angioblastic sarcoma are characterized by a high scattering of nuclear DNA content, an aneuploid DNA stemline and a substantial irregularity of the nuclear area. These difference, suggest the malignancy of stromal and angioblastic sarcoma.
