- Abstract
In the surgery of malignancies of the parotid gland the management of the facial nerve and of the neck is very important. In fact, many authors declared as the surgery of parotid gland can be considered as the surgery of facial nerve and others underlined the role of the neck management in a complete treatment of these neoplasms. The features of 47 cases of parotid gland neoplasms observed at the National Cancer Institut of Naples (Naples, Italy) are reported. In all cases a total parotidectomy was performed with neck dissection in case of neck metastases or electively in selected cases and resection of the facial nerve only in case of macroscopic tumor involvement. Radiotherapy was administrated in case of involvement of the facial nerve, and/or of the skin and/or of multiple neck metastases. The results of our experience emphasize as the neoplasms of the parotid gland can be treated sparing the facial nerve when it is clearly not involved without making worse prognosis; on the other side planing a neck dissection should be mandatory in case of high degree malignancies, and/or of tumors larger than T2, and/or of involvement of the facial nerve, and/or of the skin and/or cervical lymph nodes.

- Abstract
Unlabelled: AIMS AND BACKGROUNDS: In T1-T2a glottic carcinoma before considering which type of treatment is the best option a biopsy is necessary. A peculiar aspect of this type of lesions is the fact that in the same specimen it is possible to find different grade of dysplasia even carcinoma in situ or microinvasive or invasive. An incisional biopsy could mislead the diagnosis. The aim of this study was to report the oncological results of the excisional biopsy for T1-T2a glottic cancer., Materials and Methods: From November 1999 to December 2001, 18 patients (13 T1, 5 T2a) with carcinoma of the vocal cord underwent excisional biopsy of the lesion. In the case of negative margins no further treatment was done. The average follow-up was 2 years and 3 months., Results: Local control was achieved in 100% for T1, 80% for T2. Radiotherapy was added in 2 cases., Conclusion: In our experience "excisional biopsy" for unadvanced glottic tumors is an ideal surgical technique for a one stage procedure of diagnosis and therapy.

- Abstract
Unlabelled: AIMS AND BACKGROUNDS: The use of the stapler in total laryngectomy with closed technique is described by the authors., Materials and Methods: From October 1999 to December 2002, 27 total laryngectomy were performed, 15 with a stapler and 5 cases had a primary tracheoesophageal puncture., Results: Only one patient developed a pharyngocutaneous fistula, no other patients experienced post-operative complications. All cases in this study had negative surgical margins., Conclusion: The correct indication for the use of the stapler is a tumor that needs a total laryngectomy, but completely endolaryngeal. The technique allows to remove the nso-gastric tube at the end of the first week after the operation, to avoid soiling the surgical field, to reduce the time in theatre. This technique seems to be safe as the traditional suture.

- Abstract
Background: The authors report the up to date trends regarding the etiopathology, diagnosis and treatment of vascular-graft infections. This paper concerns the responsible micro-organisms; the reference to the formation of anastomotic pseudo-aneurysm for the infections involving the lines of suture and the reference to the aortoenteric fistula., Methods: A case study which refers to the period between 1990 and 1999 presents 19 cases of prosthetic infections out of 520 operations of implants of prosthetic materials., Results: 11 successful, 7 amputations, 1 decrease., Conclusions: In the past years the results of the treatment have improved thanks to a more refined and codified therapeutical conduct and to the employment of prosthetic materials which are more resistant to infection, or to a greater attention paid to asepsis, before, during and after surgery to antibiotic prophylaxis before, during and after the operation. But, nevertheless graft infection still remains a dreadful complication for vascular surgery operations. The therapeutical approach is substantially aggressive and the removal of the infected prosthesis is essential. Nevertheless we believe that we should not underestimate open local treatment, which in localized and superficial infections and infections not involving anastomosis allows us to preserve prosthesis and make it root.

- Abstract
Background: The 70% of peripheral aneurysms are localized at the popliteal artery; approximately one third of patients are asymptomatic, but the occurrence of complications (acute ischemia, rupture) endangers the survival of the leg. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the validity of elective surgery for popliteal aneurysms, also for asymptomatic lesions., Methods: Twenty-seven popliteal aneurysms were observed in 20 patients; only 7 of these were affected by a unilateral lesion, other 7 patients by a bilateral lesion and the remainder 6 patients by a polydistrict association; 3 patients refused the surgical therapy which was proposed. Prosthetic grafting with exclusion or resection of the aneurysm has been practiced in 16 cases; one time only a Dacron graft was employed, while the autologous saphenous vein was employed in 15 cases. A locoregional thrombolysis has been performed in 3 patients, in presence of an acute peripheral ischemia. In 5 cases a conservative approach has been chosen; these were asymptomatic aneurysms with a <2 cm diameter., Results: In 87,5% of patients operated (14/16) a good immediate result was obtained. In a mean 2 years follow-up the 75% of these patients maintained the clinical result. The fibrinolytic therapy was resolutive in 2 cases of acute peripheral ischemia; a lumbar sympathectomy was necessary in one case., Conclusions: In consideration of the complications that the aneurysmatic disease can give, among which the acute peripheral ischemia is the most dreadful, a surgical approach is widely justified, also in the light of the good results described.
