[Breast cancer and pregnancy. Analysis of our casuistry and literature review].

The results of 14 cases of breast cancer and pregnancy observed in 1261 breast carcinoma, diagnosed and in treatment between January 1980 and March 2001 were analysed. The results were compared with 122 cases of not pregnant patients with similar ages (< or = 40). The pregnant patients had a medium following of 58.6 months and controls of 73.9 months. Otherwise the results are not significant; it shows a higher incidence of disseminate carcinomas diagnose in the pregnant patients (14.3% vs. 4.9%), a higher recidives (50% vs. 37.4%) and a higher mortality (50% vs. 30.3).

[The Italian experience in permanent pacing. A casuistry for more of 10 years: a policentric study (author's transl)].

According to a recent national survey, 387 patients were treated by permanent pacing in 10 Italian centers, between 1961 and 1966. Of these patients 205 have died; 131 (77 males and 54 females) are still alive and no informations could be obtained for the remaining 51 (13%). The overall survival of patients treated during this period of time is therefore not less than 34% which is comparable to that of general population of the same age group. The 131 patients still alive have totaled 1,486 years of pacing and have used up to 784 pacers. Comparing the incidence of the most common causes for replacement during the periods 1961-66 and 1973-77, electrode failures dropped from 21 to 0.9%; circuitry malfunctions occurred in 10.5 and 7.8%; battery depletion rose from 36.8 to 69% of the cases. According to their clinical conditions, the 131 patients on long-term follow-up can be grouped as follows: 62% are in class 1 or 2 of NYHA; 26.7% are in class 3, and 3.8% in class 4. Moreover, 53.4% of patients are living an active life, having some sort of occupation and 29% are holding a driving license.
