[Tissue expansion].

Tissue expansion has now achieved an important place in reconstructive surgery, since the first experiments about 10-15 years ago. Expanded tissue used in reconstruction is usually excellently matched for colour, thickness, elasticity and other physical properties. This is particularly important in reconstructions in the head and neck region. Tissue expansion is also used increasingly for breast reconstruction all over the world. It is now the most common procedure for breast reconstruction in USA. Various options using either a temporary or a permanent expander are discussed.

The first case of Li-Fraumeni syndrome in Bosnia and Herzegovina: case report.

Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a very rare autosomal dominant and highly penetrant cancer syndrome characterized by early-onset primary tumours, including soft tissue and bone sarcoma, breast cancer, leukemia, brain tumours and adrenocortical carcinoma. Here we report the first evidence-based case of LFS in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the whole Balkan region. A ten year-old girl developed multiple primary tumours (rhabdomyosarcoma) during a period of eight years, as well as fibroadenoma of the breast. Sequential analysis revealed a germ line mutation of TP53 in exon 8, a common mutation in patients with LFS, in both the patient and her mother.

[Primary cutaneous Ki-1-lymphoma].

With the help of immunohistochemical techniques and new antibodies developed in the last few years, we were able to identify 2 cases of nodular tumors of the skin as highly malignant Ki-1 lymphomas. The clinical course was characterized by the development of multiple skin tumors without any evidence of systemic involvement. After the excision of several skin tumors; we performed chemotherapy with the MACOP-B regimen. In one of our patients, however, this treatment could not prevent the occurrence of further tumors. Possibly, the cutaneous anaplastic Ki-1 lymphomas presented here are closely related to or even identical with mycosis fungoides d'emblée.

[Radionuclide visualization of non-skeletogenous tumors using 99mTc-phosphates].

The paper is concerned with the results of radionuclide investigation of 51 patients with different tumors located beyond the osseous tissue. In spite of the fact that 99mTc-phosphates were well known as agents for radionuclide diagnosis of bone tumors, they can be employed for obtaining certain diagnostic information concerning topical diagnosis and the determination of a degree of the distribution of processes of nonskeletogenous nature. Of 51 patients with soft tissue pathology clear visualization of lesion foci was obtained in 34 patients (66.7%). Positive results of radionuclide diagnosis with 99mTc-pyrophosphate were noted in scintigraphy of patients with breast, ovarian, soft tissue and maxillofacial tumors. Besides, clear visualization of lesion foci was achieved in 6 of 11 patients with benign diseases: postoperative scars, inflammatory infiltrates, synovioma. The results obtained indicated the absence of necessary specificity of 99mTc-phosphates to osseous tissue.
