[The importance of chorionic gonadotropin excretion in diagnosis and therapy of testicular tumours (author's transl)].

Systematic investigations of the chorionic gonadotropin excretion were performed in 79 patients with testicular tumours. The influence of the hormonal activity in diagnosis and prognosis of metastatic testicular tumours was investigated. It was discovered, that the part of hormonal active testicular tumours is relatively small and that the evidence of the chorionic gonadotropin excretion is only possible in a few cases before the clinical and radiological evidence of metastases. The hormonal activity of testicular tumours is without influence on the survival time of tumour carriers.

[Histologic structure and spread of malignant neoplasms within the urinary bladder (author's transl)].

In 96 out of 250 cases of bladder cancer, neoplastic tissue was found by biopsy in areas within the bladder but remote of the primary and unsuspiciously looking mucosa. Neither the histologic type of the tumour nor the degree of infiltration of the primary allow predictions regarding remote cancerous lesions within the bladder. It must be concluded: In bladder cancer, indication and choice of treatment must take into consideration that the neoplastic process involves the urinary bladder as a whole.

New aspects in combined treatment of urinary bladder carcinoma.

To further improve the results of treatment of malignant processes of the urinary bladder, the authors reviewed in detail 420 cases under combined treatment. They found the following results: (1) In 96 (38.4%) out of 250 cases, the cystoscopically normal mucosa distant from the tumour showed histologically definite cancer tissue. (2) The destruction of residual tumour elements by ionising energy after operation depends on the relation between tumour and connective tissue. If there is sufficient connective tissue residual tumours may be destroyed in all probability, otherwise prognosis is poor. (3) In case of tumour cell mass formation in the microspace without active connective tissue, a curative effect by means of ionising energy after operation is not to be exptected, whether there is a multilocular development of carcinoma or not. Surgical treatment has to be extended according to the condition.

Carcinoma in Situ↗

[Results of therapy of lip neoplasms from a radiotherapeutic point of view].

The increasing use, in recent years, of surgical methods for the treatment of labial carcinomata caused us to review the results of treatment by means of irradiation. The different methods of radiotherapy are described, and a comparison is made between the results of radiotherapy and surgical treatment. Also, cases are described in which it is indicated to use either surgical treatment or radiotherapy or a combination of the two methods.
