    Notes: Abstract A double-contrast examination of the colon was performed during diarrheal illness in 5 patients withCampylobacter infection. The findings in these 5 patients were aphthoid ulcers and stippled appearance. In 1 patient with stool culture positive forCampylobacter, double-contrast study of the colon 9 days later showed no abnormalities. In a 12-year-old boy lymphoid hyperplasia could be observed as well as the aphthoid ulcers. All the abnormalities were segmental, more often localized in the rectosigmoid. No changes were found in the ascending colon. Histopathologic studies of the biopsy specimens taken endoscopically in 3 patients showed a nonspecific inflammatory reaction.

    Notes: Abstract. In this study we analyze MR-negative malignant lesions of the breast. A total of 204 patients with palpable and/or mammographic lesions were studied. The MR technique consisted of the turbo FLASH and MP-RAGE subtraction techniques. All patients underwent surgical biopsy and/or mastectomy and all specimens were examined by the correlative radiologic-histologic mapping technique. A total of 208 lesions were evaluated; 145 turned out to be malignant and 63 proved to be benign. Six malignant lesions were misinterpreted as benign on MR imaging; thus, suspicious contrast enhancement was present in 96 % of the lesions detected by mammography, US, or clinical examination. Especially 4 of the 17 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) lesions were misinterpreted (23.5 %). Despite optimal technique, 6 malignant lesions were not identified by MR imaging. The highest prevalence of these MR occult lesions was in the group of DCIS. Although MR imaging has an important role in the evaluation of breast lesions and, primarily, in ruling out malignancy, one should be aware of the fact that false-negative MR findings do occur.

    Vascular malformations: a review of 10 years' management in a university hospital (1996)
    Springer
    Pediatric surgery international 11 (1996), S. 296-300

    Notes: Abstract In order to gain insight into the management of patients with vascular malformations (VM) in the University Hospital Nijmegen in the past 10 years, 151 cases managed by different specialists were reviewed. To avoid the usual confusion in terminology, all recorded diagnoses were reclassified according to the biological classification of Mulliken. The sex distribution was equal; 79% of the malformations were diagnosed at birth or in the 1st year of life. The median time between presentation and consultation was 3 years. Sixty-two lymphatic, 26 venous, 24 capillary, 1 arterial, and 38 combined malformations (8 arteriovenous, 30 others) were found. The head and neck region was most frequently involved, followed by the lower and upper limbs and trunk. The pediatric surgeon was the most frequently consulted specialist. Confusing, mutually incompatible terminology and a wide variety of different diagnostic techniques and treatments had been used by the different specialists. To improve the management of patients with vascular malformations, the use of a uniform classification, an increase in basic investigations, and the development and evaluation of protocols for diagnosis and treatment by multidisciplinary teams are necessary.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pain experience of women during mammography for breast cancer screening. Possible associations with personal and medical history, sociodemographics and/or situational factors were studied. It was also investigated whether this pain influenced the intention to return for future breast cancer screening. In the Netherlands, women between 50–75 years are invited for screening every two years. A total of 1200 participants were asked to fill up a questionnaire. The response rate was 79.5% (n = 954), and 945 questionnaires contained adequate information for analyses. A total of 689 women (72.9%) described mammography as mild to severely painful. In this group, compared to the group that reported no pain, the following factors occurred significantly more often: sensitive breasts (P = 0.001), family history of breast diseases (P = 0.017), expected pain based on former mammography (P = 0.001), high education (P = 0.008), anxiety (P = 0.001), breast sensitivity in last three days (P = 0.001), insufficient attention of technologist (P = 0.001). Other factors like age, hormonal status, breast size and hormone use were not associated with the pain experienced. Thirty-two women (3.3%) indicated that they would not attend further screening, 25 (2.6%) reported that the pain might deter them, six women (0.6%) had other reasons, one woman (0.1%) was sure not to come because of severe pain. In conclusion, a large majority of women attending breast cancer screening describes mammography as painful (72.9%). Factors associated with pain were described. Relatively few women (2.7%) indicated that the pain might deter them from future mammography. Recommendations are given to reduce the pain experienced during screening mammography.
