    Notes: Abstract A case of an extremely unusual tumor of the larynx, pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma, is presented with a review of literature. This is the fifth case of this malignancy described in the larynx in the English language literature. A histopathological diagnosis was made with immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy. In contrast to other reported cases, the tumor in the present case had a very aggressive behavior. Despite radical surgery involving total laryngectomy and neck dissection followed by radiation therapy, the patient died of disease 8 months following treatment.

    Notes: Abstract Involvement of the temporal bone in patients with malignant lymphomas is very rare. Most of the reported cases have been clinically asymptomatic and were diagnosed only by post-mortem examinations. We present a nasal, paranasal, nasopharyngeal lymphoma that occurred in a 12-year-old child and also involved the temporal bone. Clinical presentation began with bilateral chronic otitis media. Histopathologically, tumor was found to be an angiocentric lymphoma of B-cell origin. Association with Epstein-Barr virus could not be demonstrated. Despite combination chemotherapy (with cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doksorubicine, prednisolone, l-asparaginase, cytosine arabinoside, metotraxate) and radiotherapy (to 40 Gy), disease progressed locally as well as to cervical lymph nodes and the lungs.

    Notes: Abstract The clinical efficacy of procaine penicillin and sulbactam-ampicillin was compared in patients with peritonsillar abscesses after peroral abscess drainage. Forty-two patients were randomly assigned to receive either procaine penicillin or sulbactam-ampicillin intramuscularly on an outpatient basis. The mean time required for clinical symptoms (throat pain, dysphagia and fever) to resolve was compared. No statistically significant difference was found between the clinical recoveries of patients using either antibiotic (P 〉 0.05). The authors conclude that intramuscular procaine penicillin can be safely prescribed on an outpatient basis to most patients with peritonsillar abscess after incision and drainage. In contrast, a broader spectrum and more expensive antibiotic, such as sulbactam-ampicillin, should be reserved for non-responders.

    Notes: Abstract Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma is a variant of squamous cell carcinoma that was first described in 1986. In the English-language literature, only 26 cases of this infrequent histopathological entity have been reported in the larynx. Tumors have an aggressive biological behavior, justifying combined surgical treatment with radiotherapy. Two new cases are presented and the literature reviewed.
