Thirty right hepatic arteries discovered among 137 celiomesenteric angiographies show the high frequency (22%) of this variation. Radiologic anatomy of the right hepatic artery was discussed; with the exception of one atheromatous stenosis, the pathologic findings of the right hepatic artery and its terminal branches illustrate the development of a regional disease (12 cases or 40%). This assumed pathology is divided half in pancreatic causes (neoplasm, pancreatitis, pseudocysts) and half in hepatobiliary causes (metastatic cancer of the liver, cancer of the hilus, cirrhosis, hydatid cyst, alveolar echinococcosis or angioma). Five times the surgical technic was modified because of the right hepatic artery. Since these observations were made, we are studying the consequences of this hepatic artery over surgical technics and the approach to the various segments of this artery.

Plasma carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was studied in 60 patients with histologically confirmed intraocular neoplasms including 56 malignant melanomas of the uvea and four metastatic tumors to the choroid. While 45% of the patients with primary uveal melanomas, as well as 75% of the patients with metastatic disease demonstrated elevated plasma CEA levels, both patients who exhibited metastatic lesions of entodermal origin demonstrated plasma CEA values that clearly fell into a separate, highly elevated category, consistent with metastatic disease or pancreatic or colorectal carcinoma. Thus, in the patient seen with a nonpigmented choroidal mass that may represent either a choroidal hemangioma, amelanotic melanoma, or metastatic tumor, plasma CEA levels may be useful in the differential diagnosis. If the clinician suspects a metastatic tumor from an occult primary site, highly elevated CEA levels may indicate that the lesion is of entodermal origin.

Angiographic and pathologic findings are presented and correlated in a case of renal cavernous hemangioma, and considered in relation to 3 other cases published previously. A normal angiogram does not exclude a cavernous hemangioma. Those tumors with a large arterial component may be demonstrated in the arterial phase of the angiogram. A discrete tumor may show an area of hypovascularity by displacing normal renal tissue but a diffuse cavernous hemangioma is likely to yield a normal angiogram.

Treatment results and indications for surgery were analysed in 50 cases of hepatic hemangioma versus pattern of hemangiomatosis and size, site and extent of tumor. Surgery was performed in 41 (82%) patients. Radical surgery was possible and justified in as few as one-third of them. Palliative treatment including ligation and roentgen-endovascular occlusion of the hepatic artery and its branches, local ferromagnetic embolization of tumor and suturing and sclerotherapy of hemangioma were performed in 28 cases. End results were analysed in 33 cases followed up to as long as 8 years posttreatment. The extent and type of surgery for hepatic hemangioma should be different for each of the four patterns of the disease identified.

Extracorporeal liver surgery has been proposed with the aim to increase the resectability rate in patients with advanced tumors. In order to avoid the inherent section of the hepatic pedicle we propose ex situ-in vivo liver surgery. The surgical procedure comprises complete mobilization and exteriorization of the liver which is rocked on the axis of the porta hepatis following section of the hepatic veins. Protection of the liver parenchyma against prolonged ischemia is obtained through cold portal perfusion (UW solution) and the use of an heat exchanger on which liver resections and vascular procedures are performed. The procedure also encompasses the use of veno-venous bypass during liver vascular exclusion. This procedure was performed in 2 patients with tumoral invasion of the 3 main hepatic veins and in 1 patient whose hemangioma was surrounding the hepatocaval confluence. Duration of hypothermic ischemia was 205, 225 and 230 minutes respectively. Postoperative course was uneventful in the 3 cases with an hospital stay of 25, 28 and 18 days. Ex situ-in vivo liver surgery allows completion of a surgical treatment in patients whose tumor appears unresectable with the use of conventional technics. This procedure may constitute an alternative to liver transplantation in highly selected cases.

Intrascrotal hemangioma is rare. A case is presented and the literature is reviewed. A 35 year-old male with the complaint of a painless right scrotal mass underwent right high orchiectomy because the mass was hard and difficult to separate from the right testicle in scrotal exploration. Histologic study revealed that the tumor consisted of a venous hemangioma and the greater part of it was displaced by organized connective tissue. It is extremely rare for a case of intrascrotal hemangioma to require orchiectomy.

CT findings in 113 cases of hepatic hemangioma confirmed pathologically including 52 resected specimens and 8 autopsies were studied in correlation with the typical CT scan of 506 cases of the same disease. Mottling enhancement in the surrounding hepatic parenchyma of hemangioma which never appeared in other kinds of tumor was considered as a pathognomonic sign for diagnosis. It was correlated with the presence of dilated vascular spaces or sinusoids communicating with the tumor itself in the surrounding tissue. The thick wall and thin wall types of hemangioma were discussed.

A total of 93 tumors of the epidermis, its appendages, and dermis were observed in 1,433 (717 males, 716 females) rats employed in oncogenicity studies over a 2-yr period. Mammary gland neoplasms will be reported separately. Fifty-seven (61.3%) were epithelial with 49 in males and 8 in females. Keratoacanthoma was the most frequent epithelial neoplasm in males (22) followed by squamous cell carcinoma (11) and papilloma (5). Sebaceous gland neoplasms seen in males (5) included both adenomas (3) and carcinomas (2). In males, there were also 3 trichoepitheliomas, 1 pilomatricoma, 1 basal cell tumor, and 1 malignant melanoma. Of the 8 epithelial neoplasms in females, there were 3 squamous cell carcinomas, 2 keratoacanthomas, and 1 each basal cell tumor, malignant melanoma, and trichoepithelioma. There were 21 mesenchymal neoplasms in males and 15 in females. The most frequent neoplasm was fibroma (7 males, 8 females) followed by lipoma (7 males, 4 females) and fibrosarcoma (4 males, 3 females). One male had a liposarcoma and 2 males each had hemangioma. The total neoplasm incidence of 70/717 (9.8%) in males and 23/716 (3.2%) in females showed that skin neoplasms were 3 time more common in males than in females. Epithelial neoplasms of the skin were 6 times more common in males than in females. Males were more than twice as likely to have epithelial rather than mesenchymal skin neoplasms whereas the reverse was seen in females.

Hemangiomas of the temporal bone are benign, vascular and are tumors. The diagnosis is in most cases made during the operation because the symptoms are non conclusive. Two cases were recently observed: one simulating a Meniere disease while the tumor was developed close to the jugular bulb and the endolymphatic sac; the second invaded the geniculate area and the petrous apex and was revealed by a progressive facial palsy.

Antidromic angiography through external jugular vein could show the real appearance, limits and reflux veins of cavernous hemangioma. Pathologic changes in venous system were shown with this method. It is a simple and the best method in diagnosing deep and larger cavernous hemangioma which is hard to treat agent. It plays also a role in differential diagnosis of some cystic mass with intracapsular blood. It is also better than tumor cavity angiography.
