A case of peritoneal cystic mesothelioma in a 40-yr-old woman is reported. The patient was operated on for signs of acute appendicitis. The lesion was made up of small, multiple, thin-walled cysts and both visceral and parietal layers of the peritoneum in the appendix region were involved. The lesion must be differentiated from other cystic lesions of the abdominal cavity and in particular from the multilocular lymphangioma. The diagnostic role of special techniques, such as immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy, in difficult cases is emphasized.

Authors report the case of 32 years old pregnant woman, who at the VI month of pregnancy developed an invasive carcinoma of the cervix uteri. It is hypothesized that surgical therapy according to Weirtheim-Meigs, without bilateral ovariectomy, consent the conservation of the reproductive function in the young women thought the development of the artificial insemination technics.

Serum levels of amylase, pancreatic isoamylase, lipase, trypsinogen, and elastase 1 were determined in 41 patients with pancreatic carcinoma and compared with those 71 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 17 patients with digestive non-pancreatic carcinoma, in an attempt to evaluate their relative values in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Trypsinogen and elastase 1 levels were the most frequently abnormal (56%), followed by pancreatic isoamylase (39%), lipase (34%), and amylase (27%). In 4 patients with resectable cancer levels of all serum enzymes were within normal limits, with the single exception of a low trypsinogen level in one patient. No significant differences in the behavior of serum enzymes were found between patients with pancreatic cancer and those with chronic pancreatitis or digestive non-pancreatic cancer. The results of our study indicate that measurement of serum pancreatic enzymes is of limited usefulness in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

The Authors report their experience on the vulvar carcinoma therapy. Patients showed, with high frequency, hypertension and diabetes. The 25.9% of the patients, furthermore, were obese. The surgery was the primary treatment, combined with chemiotherapy and radiotherapy in selected cases. The survival rate was 80% in I stage, while in the III and IV stage was very low, in spite of the use of chemotherapy.
