Ureteral disturbance following various treatments of cervical carcinoma was statistically analyzed and definitely less favorable results were obtained from operative therapy. In the future, operative therapy will naturally require detailed preoperative examination and confirmation of stage 0 or I a by conization to minimize (individualize) the operative insult. Since not all the institutions performing radiation therapy have been able to obtain results comparable to those of surgery, more effective methods of irradiation without side effects should be developed. It is, however, about time to reexamine whether or not the rate of operation close to 70 % is correct or not. Comparison of these two methods, moreover, is possible only by those of us who have had many experiences with the Okabayashi's operation, as Kobayashi pointed out.

A study of the glycopeptide and glycosaminoglycans has been made on the urine of a patient with hereditary mucopolysaccharidosis VI (Naroteaux-Lamy syndrome) and the results compared to those obtained from the urine of normal men. Glycosaminoglycan contents were significantly higher in the urine of the patient, especially in the electrophoretic fraction with approximate mobility of dermatan sulfate, than in the normal urine. Whereas glycopeptide content in the patient fell within the normal range.

As in the described cases, the partial renogram was useful in the investigation of the clinical findings and in grasping the clinical situation. And the technique is very easy. Then I think the partial renogram should be used in kidney test in clinics.

I investigated the correlation between the delineation of spleen on liver scanning with ¹⁹⁸ Au colloid and the liver function test in the subjects of livercirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, primary liver tumor and metastatic liver tumor from 1961 to 1967, which were established the diagnosis by histology, and obtained the following results.The frequency of spleen delineation was in the order of liver cirrhosis (87.0%), primary liver tumor (66.7%), metastatic liver tumor (55.0%) and hepatitis (40.0%).On the liver function test, some items that concerned closely with some liver disease, showed high abnormality rate, therefore, the accord rate was naturally high, that is, Al, γ-Gl, A/G, and BSP in liverchirrhosis, GOT and GPT in hepatitis, Al-P in liver tumor had the high accord rate. But the other items that was connected little with some liver disease, showed frequently normal value, so that the accord rate was lower.However, in the case of spleen negative image, there were the pretty cases showed abnormal value in liver function test. The fact seemed to be caused by the difference of the basic character of both examinations.The further study will be made demands to settle those problems.

I studied that the distribution of RISA in various tissues and tumor in NF sarcoma bearing mouse and tumor scanning in rabbit implanted Brown-Pearce tumor, Myxoma virus tumor and Fibroma virus tumor.It was found from the results of the distribution study and experimental tumor scanning that the tumor scanning should be performed after 48 hours of admission of RISA when the activity in tumor went over that in blood. I thought that RISA has the posibility to be tumor scanning material.

The significance of the partial renogram was indicated here from the view of the clinical findings.The total renogram of the case of chronic nephritis showed that the peak time and height were normal and a slight delayed excretion was found. On the partial renogram, the cortical renogram pointed out an obtuse in the peak, and the pelvical renogram indicated the normal pattern. The partial renogram illustrated that cortics was damaged and the excretion from pelvics was normal. These findings of partial renogram corresponded with the biopsy.As described above, we could obtained more clear information about kidney diseases from the partial renogram.
