A survey was undertaken to determine the functional advantages of knee replacement and problems that may still be encountered by the patient. The results of the survey highlighted certain advantages and problem areas. It also pointed out the seemingly greater functional value of the knee replacement in those patients who had no problems in other joints.

The Breast, 2000

In addition, we examined tumours from 96 female patients with early-onset breast cancer, who were not selected because of any family history. Paraffin-embedded tumour sections were examined by standard immunohistochemical analysis. Three familial tumours from BRCA1 carriers displayed focal negativity. This observation was not seen in a non-mutation carrier from the same family. It was found that 9/96 (9%) earlyonset breast tumours had total BRCA1 negativity. In addition, 2/2 (100%) medullary breast carcinomas displayed negativity for both antibodies. Our results indicate that BRCA1 antibodies can discriminate between familial tumours with and without a deleterious mutation from one family. Further mutation studies in early-onset breast cancer group will be necessary to evaluate the use of immunohistochemistry as a rapid, initial screening technique to identify BRCA1 mutations.

There is, however, remarkably little evidence of the truth of this claim.

Despite this, the UK oncology curricula do not have dedicated geriatric oncology learning objectives. This cross-sectional study of UK medical oncology trainees investigates the training, confidence level and attitudes towards treating older people with cancer. Methods: A web-based survey link was sent to the delegates of a national medical oncology trainee meeting. Responses were collected in October 2011. Results: The response rate was 93% (64 out of 69). The mean age of the respondents was 32.3 years (range 27-42 years) and 64.1% were female. A total of 66.1% of the respondents reported never receiving training on the particular needs of older people with cancer, 19.4% reported to have received this training only once. Only 27.1% of the trainees were confident in assessing risk to make treatment recommendations for older patients compared with 81.4% being confident to treat younger patients. Even fewer were confident with older patients with dementia (10.2%). Conclusion: This first study of the UK medical oncology trainees highlights the urgent need for change in curricula to address the complex needs of older people with cancer.

We present two cases of patients with pituitary lymphoma, both of whom were symptomatic from pituitary dysfunction. The first patient demonstrated pituitary involvement on imaging, with mild biochemical diabetes insipidus but clear hypoadrenalism. Both adrenals were grossly enlarged on CT scanning and biopsy of one of the adrenal masses confirmed the diagnosis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The second patient presented with clinical diabetes insipidus but with no obvious abnormalities on pituitary imaging. CT scanning of abdomen and pelvis, however, revealed widespread lymphadenopathy. Lymph node biopsy revealed a T cell-rich B cell lymphoma. Review of the English-language literature of all published cases of pituitary lymphoma in the presence of generalised disease in immunocompetent patients revealed 13 cases. Most patients had large B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Involvement of the anterior lobe of the pituitary was more frequently seen than in patients developing pituitary metastases from solid tumour primaries. Patients with advanced lymphoma including the pituitary also appear to have a better prognosis than patients presenting with pituitary metastases. This is an important diagnosis to make as rapidly as possible to allow the early institution of effective therapy.

It argues that what is needed is a way of placing individuals within households and measuring both their contribution to the resources of that household and the extent of their dependence on the resources of others within the household. It is argued that this should involve examining sources as well as levels of income, and by adopting an approach that is dynamic, rather than static. The concept of social exclusion – multi-dimensional, dynamic, local and relational – could provide a way to explore these issues of autonomy and dependency, and their gender dimensions.

A questionnaire was mailed to 127 services who were either solely dedicated to childhood bereavement or who offered a service within the range of work of a host organization and for which there was a supporting organizational structure. Responses were received from 108 services (a response rate of 85%). The findings identified that 85% of childhood bereavement services are located in the voluntary sector; 14% are dedicated childhood bereavement services, while 86% are offered as part of a host organization. Forty-four per cent of host organizations are hospices. The majority of services (73%) relied on both paid and unpaid staff, with 11% relying entirely on paid staff and 14% of services relying entirely on unpaid staff. The interventions offered ranged from individual family work (86%), individual child work (62%), groupwork with families (53%) and groupwork ...

The combined classical clinical features of fever, vomiting, neck stiffness, headache and purpuric rash were identified in only 9% of patients. Fever and vomiting were the commonest symptoms, both being present in 60% of patients. A rash was noted in 77% of patients but neck stiffness in only 39%. Rash was more common in children, headache and photophobia in adults. A total of 13 patients died, the fatality rare increasing with age from 3% in infants to 20% in older teenagers and adults. Only 15% of 75 patients admitted to hospital by general practitioners were known to have received intravenous or intramuscular penicillin before admission as recommended by the Chief Medical Officers of the Health Departments in the U.K. Only 24% of patients received rifampicin to clear nasopharyngeal carriage before or at discharge from hospital. Altogether, 375 household contacts of patients were identified. At least 84% of them received chemoprophylaxis.
