Correlation of pelvic ultrasonography with pubertal development in girls.

Objectives: This study aims to correlate pelvic ultrasound with female puberty and evaluate the usual ultrasound parameters as diagnostic tests for the onset of puberty and, in particular, a less studied parameter: the Doppler evaluation of the uterine arteries.

Methods: Cross-sectional study with girls aged from one to less than eighteen years old, with normal pubertal development, who underwent pelvic ultrasound examination from November 2020 to December 2021. The presence of thelarche was the clinical criterion to distinguish pubescent from non-pubescent girls.

[Cholesteatoma recurrences caused by intraoperative cell seeding? Contact endoscopic and cytologic studies].

Background: The high rate of recurrences of cholesteatomas after surgery is mostly caused by insufficient removal of matrix. Another factor may be intraoperative scattering of matrix cells e. g.

[Carbamazepine and vigabatrin in epileptic pregnant woman and side effects in the newborn infant].

Background: Carbamazepine (Tegretol) is frequently prescribed to pregnant epileptic women. Various congenital malformations constitute the most described side-effects in their newborns.

Case Reports: Case 1.

[Histology and cytology of laparoscopically operated "simple ovarian cysts"].

In a retrospective study the histopathological findings of 127 laparoscopically operated unilocular anechoic smooth-walled ovarian cysts have been correlated with clinical characteristics (age, duration of observation, complaints, hormonal treatment), size by ultrasound, kind and colour of cysts content as well as cytological findings. The age of patients differed from 16-61 years (mean +/- s: 36 +/- 16). The histopathologic findings yielded 15 (11.

[Aspiration cytology--endometrium diagnosis of peri- and postmenopausal bleeding disorders].

The aspiration of endometrial cell samples for cytological analysis in comparison to histological diagnosis with a following conventional curettage was evaluated in a symptomatic group of 100 women. The age ranged between 45 to 72 years. In 87% of the detected cytological and histological findings were comparable.

[Metastasis of bronchial carcinoma in the temporomandibular joint. Case report].

Within 35 years 1008 patients were treated that were taken ill in a malignant tumor of face, jaw and mouth. There was found in five patients a distant metastasis of a carcinoma in lower yaw. One case with metastasis in left mandibular condyle is being described.

[Colposcopic, cyto- and histologic signs of papilloma virus infection in precancerous and early stages of cervix cancer].

Basis of present study are examinations in 100 women with colposcopic and/or cytologic abnormalities suspect of preinvasive or early invasive carcinoma of the uterine cervix. We found 76 colposcopic abnormal findings in 100 women examined. In 36 women there was a colposcopic suspicion on a papilloma virus infection, in 32 cases combined with abnormal colposcopic findings.

[Incidence, causes and follow-up of doubtful smear findings (Papanicolaou group III)].

Suspect smears of 622 patients from 1977-1986 were analysed for their causes and followed up until the definite cytologic or histologic result. In relation to the overall material of 97,963 cases the rate of suspect smears (group Pap. III) was between 1.

[Comparative cytophotometric and cytomorphometric studies of concave cells and atypical squamous epithelial cells of the cervix uteri].

Cytologic slides from 11 women with clinical, cytological and histological signs of a papillomavirus infection of the cervix uteri are investigated by cytophotometry and cytomorphometry. The mean values of DNA content, chromatin density, nuclear area and nuclear circumference of koilocytes were notably higher than for atypical or normal squamous cells. In those patients with concurrent cervical intraepithelial neoplasia the DNA content of koilocytes was inversely related to the degree of atypia.

[Papilloma virus-induced changes in the uterine cervix. Histo- and cytologic and epidemiologic findings].

In this epidemiological, cytological and histological study signs of papillomavirus infections were found in 128 cases (16,6 per cent) and dysplasia or carcinoma in situ in 713 cases in a series of 773 cone biopsies. Epithelial changes caused by papillomavirus were combined with preneoplastic lesions in 116 cases. Pretherapeutic cytologic examinations of the condylomatous epithelial changes secured histologically later on referred to cervical papillomavirus infections in 64 per cent.

[Comparison between histologic diagnosis and cytologic finding of pre- and early stages of cervical cancer (author's transl)].

Cytologic findings and the histologic diagnosis are compared in 326 cervical cones. Out of the Pap III ("with cytologic control") group, cases named "Pap III with necessity for histologic diagnosis" were evaluated separately. In this subgroup of Pap III, we have found prestages or early stages of cervical cancer.

[Results of a computer assisted screening program for gynecologic mass examinations (author's transl)].

Four years experiences with a computer-assisted program for early detection of prestages and early cervical cancer in the district Rostock are reported. 96 265 women were examined. Pathological papsmears were found in 0.

[Cytological finding in the pre- and early stages of cervix carcinoma--a contribution to the evaluation of Papanicolau III].

Cytologic findings and the histologic diagnosis are compared in 326 cervical cones. We have found following ratio of the groups Papanicolaou (Pap) III: Pap IV--in dysplasia 1: 1: 1, in "more dysplasia than carcinoma in situ (CIS)" 1:2:2. The Pap IV dominates in "pure" CIS and in cones with "more CIS than dysplasia".

[2-year analysis of the results of a screening program on computer basis for the detection of pre- and early stages of cervix carcinoma (model Rostock) (II)].

Two years experiences with a computer-assisted program for early detection of prestages and early cervical cancer in Rostock-city are reported. 65% = 27028 women finally cooperated. Pathological papsmears were found in 0,52%.

[Organization of mass-screening for early detection of cervical cancer and its precancerous conditions. II. report: Practical experience with a computer assisted mass-screening program (Model Rostock) (author's transl)].

Two years experiences with a computerassisted program for early detection of prestages and early cervical cancer in Rostock-city are reported. From 43.000 women invited to take part in the examination, 27.
