[Prostatic squamous cell cancer and its differential diagnostic contrast with squamous cell metaplasia].

Thirteen (2.2%) squamous-cell carcinomas were found among 600 autopsy cases of prostatic carcinoma. In the surgical material squamous-cell carcinoma was observed in 3 cases (1.7%). Clinical and morphological analysis of these 16 cases together with the published observations shows squamous-cell carcinoma of the prostate to have a grave clinical course and bad prognosis. One observation of the erroneous histologic diagnosis of carcinoma in case of squamous-cell duct and gland metaplasia of the prostate is reported. The differential-diagnostic differences between dyshormonal squamous-cell metaplasia and squamous-cell carcinoma of the prostate are described.

[Bone metastases in cancer of the breast. Diagnostic and predictive value of quantified bone scintigraphy].

Distant metastases from carcinoma of the breast are most commonly located in the skeleton. Although it has been clearly shown that bone radionuclide scanning is more sensitive than X-rays in detecting such metastases, diverging opinions have recently been voiced concerning its sensitivity and specificity. The authors have quantitatively analyzed 1631 focal alterations, taking the uptake index value as yardstick. They found that quantitative scanning increases the sensitivity of the method and makes it possible to differentiate between malignant and benign bone lesions.

[Analysis of 1125 partial breast resections for diagnostic purposes. Occurrence of cancer and its histology].

One thousand two hundred and twenty-five partial breast resections, examined in serial gross sections have been retrospectively reviewed. The percentage of benign lesions in comparison with malignant lesions is 70 per cent-30 per cent. The percentage of malignant lesions is maximum (43%) in clustered microcalcifications which are so the best criteria of malignancy. A diagnosis of non infiltrating carcinoma has been misdiagnosed at the first examination in 6 per cent of cases. This misdiagnosis is partially explained by very small foci of carcinoma and recent recognition of certain histological types of early carcinoma. It must be noticed the unsuspected frequence of carcinoma (17%) detected by random in ipsilateral breast tissue from plastic surgery, after controlateral reconstruction for carcinoma. The analysis of benign lesions associated with carcinoma shows a significative frequent association with carcinoma in two types of lesion: radial scar and late phase of blunt duct adenosis.
