Twenty five cases of minor saliva ry glands tumors which was observedat the department of pathology of University of Tehran from 1967 to 1972 are presented and discussed . Benign mixed tumor is the most common and the only benign lesion in this series of 75 patient with intraoral salivary gland tumor. There were eleven malignant type and hence about 44% of all the tumor arc malignant and it corresponded to other published reports. The most common of the malignant tumor is adenoid systic carcinoma which comprises 24% of a ll MSG tumor. Two patient suffered of mucoepidermoid tumor with low grade malignancy and there were three single case of malignant mixed tumor, acinic cell cercinoma and poorly differentiated adeno ca rcinoma. The literature on minor salivary gland tumor in reviewed particularly with regard the most common location and histologically frequencie.

Certain strains of Staphylococcus aureus produce a toxin which cause epidermal exfoliation within 18 hours after direct subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection into newborn mice. The extracellular product responsible for exfoliation is termed exfoliative toxin (ET). In the present studies a modified assay system has been developed for detection of exfoliativeactivity in toxin negative strains as determined by standa rd method of Melish and Glasgow. If extracellular supernatant material from naturally occuring ET negative st rains was concentrated 20 fold and inoculated into newborn mice, exfoliative toxin act ivity could be detected,

96 patients suffering from degenerative joint disease were treated with ultrasonic waves within a period covering December 1971 to April 1974. Out of the to ta l number of 96 patients under treatment, 52 (54%) achieved a satisfacto ry rate while 3? patients (33%) enjoyed a lower rate of recovery and the remaining 12 patients (13%) had negative or unknown response. The methods ofaction and procedure are discussed.

Lithum can be de termined both by atomic absorption spectroscopy andflame emission spectroscopy. We have used the later method with a Zeiss Model pMQlI spectro photometer fitt ed with ante-chamber atomizer and a potensiome rric line recorder. Accurate ana lysis for the clement was acco mplished due to a sophisracared measuring instrument.

Polycystic disease of th e kidneys is a genetalized lesion o f charact erist ic clinico-pathological enti ty. It has two c1in cial fo rms: adult and infantile . The adult type is transmitted as a dominan t disease where the latter is a recessive trait. The infantile form had two pathological patterns, Form "A" in which the kidney is large and spo ngy , of normal shape and the cyst s are numerous. Microscopically the co nnective tissue is not increased. The cysts are of eq ual size and shape. The ncph rons are not reduced . In th e form "B" t he kidney may not have a normal shape and is not as large as the form "A" . Microscopica ll y the connect ive t issue is increased intensively. The cysts are of spherical shape and different sizes. The nephrons are reduced in number.

Our studi es have shown normal cyclical patterns of ovarian stero ids and pituitary gonadotropines in pa tients with congenital absccncc o f th e uteru s. It appears that the life-long abscence of a fun ctioning uterus has no effect o n the fun ctional life span o f t he co rpus lurer um, but may have some effect in the level o f estrogenes iu th e seco nd half of the cycle.
