Carcinoma Of The Larynx

A patient was encountered with verrucous carcinoma of the larynx that presented as a hairy whitish tumor. There was a recurrence because simple excision with forceps by endolaryngeal microsurgery was performed in the first operation. However, in the second operation endolaryngeal microscopic laser surgery using a direct laryngoscope was performed and followed by adjuvant chemotherapy with oral UFT, a combination of uracil and tegafur in a molar ratio of 4:1. The patient’s course has been favorable to date. The case is reported in this paper and discussed from the viewpoint of diagnosis and treatment of this neoplasm.

The Right

Verrucous carcinoma of the scrotum is an extremely rare disease and most cases are thought to result from poor hygiene and chronic inflammation. Currently, it has not been well characterized, the etiology, diagnosis and treatment remaining poorly understood. We present the case of a 50-year-old male patient diagnosed with verrucous carcinoma of the right hemiscrotum. Wide surgical excision was performed. Favorable outcomes can be achieved by surgery, even without any adjuvant therapy, but patients should be carefully followed up.

And Control

In spite of adequate means of therapy, streptococcal disease and its complications continue to present problems to the physician who cares for children. For accurate diagnosis and control of streptococcal disease inexpensive bacteriologic culture facilities are required and the physician must assure himself of the accuracy of the results. To prevent the sequelae of streptococcal occal pharyngitis, therapy sufficient to eradicate the offending organism is required. Optimum therapy of streptococcal infections is intramuscular benzathine penicillin; oral therapy with penicillin or erythromycin should be followed by a throat culture to ensure that the streptococcus has been erdicated.

Tuboovarian Abscess

Abstract The authors report the successful conservative treatment of a tuboovarian abscess in a 25-year old woman who presented with low grade fever and severe right sciatic pain. Computed tomography and ultrasonography corroborated a clinical diagnosis of tuboovarian abscess after an initial diagnosis of epidural abscess had been made. This is the first report of a tuboovarian abscess presenting principally as sciatic pain. The diagnosis and treatment of this lesion are discussed. (Neurosurgery 21: 100-103, 1987)
