By fibrocolonoscopy, fibrocolonoscopic biopsy, polypectomy, operation resp., one hundred and eight true polypi in the colon of 75 patients were studied, grouped according to localization: in caecum -- 2.8 per cent, in ascending colon -- II. I per cent, transverse colon -- 13.9 per cent, descending colon -- 19.4 per cent, in sigmoid colon -- 40.8 per cent and in rectum -- 12 per cent. Endoscopically they were grouped as follows: adenomatous -- 91.7 per cent and villous -- 8.3 per cent and after the pathohistological examination as: adenomatous 73.3 per cent, adenovillous -- 17.2 per cent and villous -- 9.5 per cent. In 40 (52.8%) of the cases, well differentiated polypi were concerned (I grade); in 30 (38%) -- moderately differentiated polypi (II grade) and in 5 (6.5%) -- poorly differentiated polypi (III grade). The studies revealed that the pathohistological examination was a method, specifying the morphological structure of polypus, determining the therapeutic behaviour of the clinicists. Fibrocolonoscopic polyrectomy solves the problem of diagnostics and treatment of the true polypi, contributing to the prophylaxis of colon carcinoma.

Unlabelled: Serum concentrations of CA 19-9, CA 242, and CA 50 were determined in patients with hepatitis and liver cirrhosis without cholestasis. The study included 63 patients with chronic persistent hepatitis (group A), chronic active hepatitis (group B), and liver cirrhosis (group C). The control group (K) consisted of 82 patients with: peptic ulcer, colorectal polypi or diverticulosis of the colon.

Using a procedure in which poly-phosphoinositides (poly-PI) in C57Bl mouse brain were labeled with [32P]Pi or [32P]ATP, the effects of chronic ethanol administration and age on metabolism of these anionic phospholipids were examined. Within 4 h after intracerebral injection, both labeled precursors were effectively incorporated into membrane phospholipids with high proportions of labeling among phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. With few exceptions, the phospholipid labeling patterns in different brain regions, e.

Many different entities simulating colonic polyps on barium enema examination have been described. Of the extraluminal mimics, round bony structures such as vertebral pedicles are perhaps best known. We describe the cause of a previously undescribed artifact: bone marrow biopsy of the ilium.

After a short historical and literature review the authors present their definition of nasal polyposis. The importance of CT scanning is stressed and the results of a CT-scan study of 350 patients with nasal complaints is presented. The authors discuss the incidence of sinusitis, presence of polypi and nasal anomalies in this population.
