Clear-cell adenocarcinoma of the vagina and cervix: survival data.

Survival data on 36 patients with clear-cell adenocarcinomas are reported: seven with vaginal lesions and 29 with cervical lesions. Although the tumor responds to present treatment modalities, it tends to be associated with early lymph node involvement, thus making early diagnosis essential. Radiation as a primary therapeutic measure has often been followed by late recurrence, though many patients with these tumors were treated by older, low-energy modalities.

Bowel perforation with suprapubic cystostomy Report of two cases.

Two patients with small bowel perforation that occurred during suprapubic catheter insertion are described. Insertion of the catheter with a trocar and with transurethral sound, respectively, was responsible for the perforation. These perforations occurred despite preliminary bladder distention. Small bowel injury was slight in both patients, and neither patient required resection. In 1 patient, the ileocutaneous fistula closed spontaneously, and in the other, oversewing the perforation only was necessary; neither patient has known residual complications.
