The simultaneous occurrence of renal adenocarcinoma and transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis in the opposite kidney is unusual.

In the current study the argyrophil staining technique for NOR proteins (Ag-NORs) has been performed on cases of different endometrial lesions, trying to find an aid in differentiating atypical hyperplasia from well differentiated carcinoma in biopsy specimens. We conclude that the Ag-NOR count, even though in endometrial carcinoma is significantly exceeding that of atypical hyperplastic endometrium, could be a misleading discriminator, because of a wide overlap of values in individual cases.

Three new cases of benign lipomatous lesions of the uterus are described, with particular attention to the possible relation between symptomatology and the presence of mast cells in the neoformation. The literature is reviewed, a brief history is presented of important stages in the study of these forms, and a new histogenetic theory proposed based on a different concept from those accepted to date.
