ABSTRACT
Se presenta la experiencia de la Unidad de Imagenología del Hospital Clínico FUSAT en la marcación pre-operatoria de lesiones mamarias no palpables, realizadas entre enero de 1992 y mayo de 1997. Se marcaron 125 lesiones en 119 pacientes; en 115 pacientes se realizó marcación mamográfica y en 4 bajo ecotomografía. Los hallazgos anátomo-patológicos fueron: lesiones malignas 12 (9,6 por ciento); lesiones benignas 113 (90,4 por ciento); lesiones benignas con atipia 24 (21,05 por ciento de las lesiones benignas). Se analizan los resultados obtenidos y se comparan con los publicados en la literatura norteamericana

Hydrostatic reduction was attempted in 43 children with intestinal intussusception: 20 male, aged 2 to 48 months, that consulted at the Clinical Hospital of the Catholic University in Santiago. Hydrostatic reduction was successful in 33 children (77 percent) that were discharged from the hospital 24 to 96 hours after the procedure. A partial reduction was achieved in 10 patients (23 percent) who required surgery and were discharged from the hospital 5 to 8 days after the procedure. Our results are similar to those reported abroad and allow the recommendation of hydrostatic reduction as the treatment of choice for intestinal intussusception
