[Selective intra-arterial perfusion of the cancerous breast: quantitative study].

Mammary tissue diffusion of a radioactive marker (Pertechnetate-Tc99m), intravenously or selectively and intraarterially injected, has been studied in 15 breast cancers; a considerable increase of that diffusion with co-injected degradable starch microspheres has been demonstrated. A clinical application of these techniques should be soon considered.

[Indications and surgical technic in gynecomastia].

In our opinion, very few publications represent a practical attitude on surgical level concerning a gynaecomasty; so we tried to sum up the operative indications and to establish a classification of the useful surgical techniques, not only in function of the existence or non-existence of a cutaneous excess, but also of the type and the localization of the vascular stalk feeding the nipple-plate. The post-operative complications are described and finally, we present you our personal experience in 21 cases.

[Chiroptera viruses transmitted or not transmitted by arthropods].

The authors make a review of literature on viruses isolated from chiroptera's tissues. They study especially two of these viruses: a true arbovirus, the Japanese B encephalitis virus and a virus of the same genus but not arthropod-borne, the Rio Bravo virus. They consider successively for each virus: isolations from bats, serosurveys in bat and in man, and experimental studies with these viruses, allowing to estimate the role of chiroptera in the diffusion and the maintenance of some arboviruses. They also report some personal results of serosurveys in bats from Tunisia and Spain.

[Microvascularization of the cancerous breast: therapeutic perspective?].

The aim of this study is to try to answer these two questions: is an intra-arterial chemotherapy of breast cancer technically possible? would such a treatment present a clinical interest? to this purpose, 12 tumoral breasts have been studied from a vascular, anatomic and arteriographic point of view; two of them were moreover subjected to scintigraphic and pathologic studies. The results seem to be encouraging, and studies are continued to specify different parameters of this therapeutic approach; then, the possibility of a clinical trial could be considered.
