Prostatic evaluation by transrectal sonography with histopathologic correlation: the echopenic appearance of early carcinoma

Fifty-two patients with clinical stage A and B carcinomas of the prostate were imaged by ultrasound (US) transrectally with a 5-MHz linear array transducer and transabdominally with a 3-MHz sector scanner prior to radical prostatectomy. The fresh specimens of 44 prostate glands were scanned in a water bath with a 5-MHz linear array transducer in multiple planes. In all cases, histopathologic correlation was obtained. Prostatic carcinoma presented as an echopenic lesion in 54% of the specimens, as a slightly hypoechoic area in 22%, and could not be identified in 24% because of its isoechoic characteristics. In contrast to many previous reports, no instance of echogenic cancer was observed.     

Cutaneous signs of internal malignancy. A pictorial essay

The skin is a window of internal malignancies and other diseases. The cutaneous signs of internal malignancy can be divided into four major groups: (1) hypersensitivity or toxic reactions, (2) infections, (3) metabolic disorders, and (4) tumors. A diagnosis of the many signs of systemic malignancy is made by inspection, history taking, and skin biopsy. Hypersensitivity reactions or nonspecific cutaneous changes in middle-aged or elderly patients should arouse suspicion of internal malignancy. Likewise, sudden onset of a cutaneous tumor in an elderly patient should alert the attentive observer to the possibility of cancer.     

Androgenic alopecia

Androgenic alopecia is a common and perplexing clinical problem in the female patient. In the past medical literature has offered little assistance in understanding or evaluating the balding woman. Recent advances in technology have better enabled the physician to evaluate and treat females with androgenic alopecia. This article presents the current evaluation and possible treatment modalities of androgenic alopecia.     

Tumescent Liposuction in Germany: History and New Trends and Techniques

Due to the developments and changes of tumescent solution, infiltration technique, and cannulas, we perform tumescent liposuction today using up to 6-8 l tumescent solution. Total aspirate measures up to 9 l, pure fat aspired up to 5 l. Tumescent liposuction of extended areas can still be done as an outpatient procedure. The condition of patients intra- and postoperatively as well as results has improved and the predictability of outcome is more certain.
