Germ cell tumors of the basal ganglia and thalamus.

The clinicopathological findings in 6 patients with germ cell tumors originating in the basal ganglia and thalamus are presented. Clinical, biological and diagnostic features were somewhat different from germ cell tumors in the pineal region. Early and comprehensive treatment is recommended because of the possible presence of nongerminomatous germ cell components.

The surgical treatment of cancer of the stomach.

From 1965 to 1977, 2421 patients with gastric cancer underwent operation in our hospital. 66% were males (mean age 55.9 years) and 34% females (mean age 52.2 years); 31% had a mucosal (m) and submucosal cancer (sm); 16.8% had intramuscular cancer (pm); a curative operation was performed in 62.0% of cases. The five and ten year survival rates of the advanced cancer group are 52.5% and 42.3%, whereas in the early cancer cases they are 95.0% and 85.4% respectively. These five and ten-year survival rates are significantly lower in patients with lymph node metastasis (43.3% and 35.4%). Thirty five per cent of the patients who underwent resection from 1957 to 1963 required an enlarged total gastrectomy, compared with 15% in the present series.
