RESUMO
It has been well established that the primary therapeuticapproach to anal squamous-cell carcinoma ischemoradiotherapy. Inguinal lymph node (LN) status isan important prognosis indicator and the presence ofmetastases in the inguinal LN is an independent markerof the local failure and overall survival. The appropriatemanagement of patients with primary anal cancer andclinically uninvolved groins remains controversial.Nowadays there is no reliable diagnostic method toaccurately determine nodal status of the inguinal region.This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of anovel assessment method of the nodal status of theinguinal region in patients with epidermoid carcinomaof the anus and anal margin. We advocate that sentinellymph node biopsy is a safe and feasible technique todetect metastases in inguinal nodes.

The study was a 5 year histopathological survey of endometrial biopsies seen at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital ; Ilorin; North Central Nigeria from January 1st 1997 to December 31st 2001. It aimed at identifying the morphological patterns of endometrial disorders; prevalence of these disorders and the histopathological changes associated with the clinical diagnosis in Ilorin; Nigeria. Eight hundred and eighty two slides of cases of endometrial disorders recorded in the register of the Department of Pathology; University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital; Ilorin; North Central Nigeria were reviewed. Clinical data on each of the cases was retrieved from request cards. The pathological reports and clinical data were recorded noting the age; clinical history; morphological description of lesions and the histological types. The mean age of the studied group was 28 years. The commonest indication for endometrial sampling was infertility (55.3

Se presenta una familia portadora del síndrome Dubin-Johnson. Del núcleo familiar de 4 mienbros: Padres, un hijo varón de 10 años de edad y una hija de 14 años de edad, se comprobó la entidad en estos dos últimos. La evolución en ambos casos ha sido benigna; el íctero ligero, intermitente y ha predominado la bilirrubina directa, hechos que motivaron el diagnóstico erróneo de hepatitis en varias ocasiones en ambos casos. En la hija mayor, el íctero se acompaña de crisis de dolor abdominal y náuseas. El diagnóstico se comprobó por la colecistografía bucal y endovenosa, y por la laparoscopia y biopsia hepática que fueron concluyente(AU)
