The histological sections of 1,605 cases of breast cancer in Israeli women were examined to determine the frequency of the various histological subtypes inthe different population groups. Infiltrating ductal carcinoma was the most common type in all groups. Circumscribed and medullary carcinoma were relatively less frequent among women born in North Africa than among immigrants from Europe or Asia. Invasive lobular carcinoma was very rare among women born in Asia. The findings are compared with those in other countries and discussed in relation to survival patterns in the different population groups in Israel.
A male full-term neonate is described in whom cardiac insufficiency developed within 24 hours post partum. Ultrasound revealed an arterio-venous fistula of the vein of Galen. The patient's condition did not allow surgical correction and he died on the 22nd day of life. Persistent pulmonary hypertension was an important accompanying feature. The literature is reviewed with respect to the prognosis and the up to now seldom reported complication of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN).
