Adjuvant therapy of T1 bladder carcinoma: preliminary results of an EORTC randomized study.

This paper reports the preliminary results of an ongoing clinical trial in patients with category T1 bladder cancer who are randomized after transurethral resection to receive either thiotepa, VM-26, or no treatment. While there are no significant differences between the three treatment groups with respect to the time until first recurrence, thiotepa has significantly reduced the recurrence rate as compared to either VM-26 (P = 0.03) or no treatment (P = 0.04) among the 215 patients for whom follow-up information is currently available.

Progestogens in prostatic cancer.

A series of 20 patients with a histological diagnosis of prostatic cancer were treated with high doses of MAP (6alpha-methyl-17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone acetate). No response was noted in 9 patients with prostatic cancer in relapse. Objective and/or subjective response was noted in 6 of 11 patients who were untreated at the time of diagnosis.

Transrectal ultrasono-tomography.

A relatively simple and painless technique of transrectal ultrasono-tomography is presented. It constitutes a reliable and objective adjuvant to the determination of size and possible infiltration of prostatic and bladder tumours in the human.

The management of abdominal wall stomata: skin protection, peristomal wound healing and support for the collecting bag. A multi-center study.

The specific properties of Stomahesive tested in 116 stomal and 20 fistulous patients render it really useful in stomatherapy where it increases the comfort of the patients: 1. it offers an excellent peristomal skin protection whatever the nature of the stoma or origin of the fistula; 2. it promotes rapid healing of skin lesions, even in ileostomy, transverse colostomy, ureterostomy and fistula patients; 3. it ensures an effective degree of impermeability; 4. it provides a large base for adhesion of the collecting bag; 5. it can be kept on for about 6 days in most cases; 6. The local tolerance is excellent (Acta chir. belg., 1977, 76, 533-537).
