[The problem of cysto-sarcoma phyllodes (author's transl)].

Problems in the diagnosis and treatment of cysto-sarcoma phyllodes in thirteen women are discussed. This is a rare breast tumour which must be regarded as semi-malignant. Its malignancy consists of its tendency to recurrence and the development of distant metastases. Five patients had one or more recurrences and three patients had metastases which were fatal. Radiological and thermographic diagnosis of small tumours is unreliable. It is not possible to distinguish the benign from the malignant variants. Accurate classification depends on histological examination. The authors consider removal of the glandular tissue or simple mastectomy to be the best form of treatment.

Etiopathogenesis and classification of esophageal diverticula.

The classification and etiopathogenesis of esophageal diverticula is discussed on the basis of our experience with the surgical management of 74 such diverticula (51 parapharyngeal, 7 thoracic, 167 epiphrenic). Parapharyngeal diverticula always represent true diverticula, their walls comprising muscular tissue as well as mucosa and submucosa. A causal relationship between esophageal reflux disease and Zenker's diverticulum has not yet been proved. Thoracic diverticula are probably more often of a congenital than traction origin. Epiphrenic diverticula result either from hypertonia of the lower esophageal sphincter (esophageal achalasia) or, if the latter functions normally, are of congenital origin. Traction etiology can in special cases be due to the presence of a leiomyoma in the esophageal wall.
