283 cases of carcinoma in situ of the cervix are investigated to establish the value of conization in its diagnosis and treatment. Conization in this series, constitutes the best procedure for diagnosis of invasive lesions and should be preferently used as a guide to the individual treatment. Hysterectomy without previous conization as practised in 27 cases is held as a risk to the patient while the conservative approach with conization alone followed by adequate control renders excellent therapeutic results. However, hysterectomy extended to vagina remains the procedure of choice.

Dysplasia, carcinoma in situ and cervical carcinoma microinvasive are taking great importance in the problem of cervical cancer. Undoubtedly, the increasing frequency with which these diagnoses are made is directly related to the wider dissemination of colpocytology Pap. Obviously, where more centers use this diagnostic method will most cases diagnosed incipient dysplasias and malignant lesions and a significant decrease in advanced cases. The current doctor should know the importance of cytological screening and how to do it, as also the significance of cytologic reports in order to identify patients requiring further research. Finally, he must learn what it is investigating a suspected case and carry it out if you are qualified or refer to another who is trained in this field.

We report 116 cases of benign and malignant tumors of the genital area of children and adolescents up to 17 years, diagnosed in a span of 19 years, from 1952 to 1971 at a single institution. These tumors are rare at this age, they constitute only 0.6%; instead, they are much more common in adult women after age 17, group forming 99.4% of our cases. Of the 116 cases more than a third they corresponded to the group of malignant and almost two-thirds have been benign. 40 cases of malignant tumors of OU casuistry, represent the biggest single resportada so far in series. The most common malignant tumors in childhood and adolescence are ovarian location, which representana more than two-thirds of the total, followed by vaginal location. We emphasize certain gynecological principles that guide the surgeon in the management of benign ovarian tumors in children and adolescents. Our series of gyn...

Although ovarian tumors account for no more than 1% of all neoplasms in the girls under 16 years, they are, however, more common in that period of life genital tumor. Despite their rarity, they should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of many abdominal disorders. Because of its rarity, sometimes they undiagnosed and can lead to special problems. Any type of ovarian tumor seen in adult women, has also been found in girls. Approximately 30% of all ovarian tumors in children and adolescents are teratomas or dermoid cyst; moiety includes all kinds of benign and malignant tumors.

This syndrome of varied etiology, is characterized by more or less intense and persistent abdominal pain, accompanied by a set of symptoms and signs that are usually caused by intra-abdominal processes; often, eventually, they will cause first located and then in many cases, acute generalized peritonitis. This peritoneal box, if left to evolve freely, take the patient to the toxic and hypovolemic shock, progressive and irreversible progress, and ultimately death.

El director del Centro Detector del Cáncer informa la labor desarrollada por esta institución, única de su índole en Sudamérica. Más de 2,000 mujeres, aparentemente sanas, fueron examinadas en este Centro; su estudio llevó a la ejecución de un informe sobre los resultados obtenidos, que es objeto de este trabajo.

Las mujeres fueron examinadas entre el 8 de junio de 1953 y el 15 de febrero de 1954. Se estudiaron todos los casos minuciosamente, estudio ejecutado por los diversos equipos que constituyen el personal médico del Centro Detector, personal exprofesamente contratado en el Instituto Nacional de Enf...
