Carcinoma of Müllerian Vestigial Origin: Report of a Case
(1973) I.M. GUPTA; B.N. PRASAD
Benign tumours of the epididymis, which are very rare, are variously regarded as adenomas, mesotheliomas and lymphangiomas, but an alternative opinion considers them to be of Müllerian vestigial origin. Their malignant counterparts are extremely rare, and this case is probably the second authentic instance to be reported in the English literature. Complete excision of the mass with wide resection of the cord followed by prophylactic local deep X‐ray therapy has provided total relief to the patient over the year which has elapsed since these measures were undertaken.

Host response and tumour biological behaviour in the two histological types of gastric carcinoma
(1978) M.L. MEHROTRA; I.M. GUPTA; S. KHANNA; M.P. VAIDYA
It appears that there is validity in categorizing gastric carcinoma into two histologic types, intestinal and diffuse. The local host tissue response in 92.5% of cases of the intestinal type of gastric carcinoma was of an exudative nature. Diffuse gastric carcinoma in 70% of cases incited a dense productive fibrosis. Pools of mucin and large number of ‘signet‐ring’ cells were mostly encountered in the intestinal type of carcinoma. Applying Dukes’ parameters the tumour was found to be more than three times more invasive in cases of diffuse carcinoma. The prognostic bearing of the two histologic types, different host tissue response, behaviour of the tumour in terms of mucous production and local extension are discussed and it is suggested that diffuse gastric carcinoma carries a worse prognosis than the intestinal type. Study of a larger series of cases and longer follow‐up with controlled treatment is essential to confirm this assessment. Copyright © 1978, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
Vascular Hamartoma of Skeletal Muscles: A Clinico‐Pathological Study of Six Cases
(1973) B.P. VARMA; A.C. MULLICK; I.M. GUPTA; S.P. GANGULY; S.K. SIROHIA
A clinico‐pathological study of six cases of vascular hamartoma (hœmangioma) of skeletal muscles is presented. The literature on the subject is reviewed, and the importance of the clinical differentiation of these lesions from malignant soft‐tissue neoplasms is stressed. Copyright © 1973, Wiley Blackwell.
