    Il volume offre una panoramica sull'enforcement del diritto antitrust nei settori bancari statunitense, italiano e comunitario. L'obiettivo della ricerca è stato quello di verificare se ed in che misura le norme a tutela della concorrenza vengano effettivamente applicate alle intese ed alle concentrazioni bancarie e se possa parlarsi di una specificità dell'industria bancaria sotto i profili della promozione della tutela della concorrenza. A tal fine vengono esaminate le norme antitrust generali e speciali nonchè le decisioni delle autorità preposte alla tutela della concorrenza

    Mini-laparoscopic Sentinel Node Detection in Endometrial Cancer: Further Reducing Invasiveness for Patients with Early-Stage Disease

    Lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy have been proposed as a safer and less morbid approach than full lymphadenectomy for patients with early endometrial cancer (EC), through either cervical or corporeal dye injection.1 (-) 4 The advantage of mini-laparoscopy is a further reduction in the overall surgical trauma for the patient. This video aims to show the feasibility of SLN biopsy using a 3-mm mini-laparoscopic approach

    Introduction. Very limited knowledge exists concerning the impact of Loop Electrosurgical Excisional Procedure (LEEP) on female sexual function in women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia Aim. To investigate sexual function in women who underwent LEEP for the treatment of cervical intraepithelial lesions, using a validated questionnaire (Female Sexual Function Index [FSFI]). Main Outcome Measures. FSFI questionnaire on six domains of female sexuality (desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain). Methods. Consecutive sexually active women, who underwent LEEP for the treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia were enrolled in this study. All women were asked to complete a copy of FSFI questionnaire, at the time of LEEP and after 6 months. We finally compared the results of the pre-LEEP questionnaire and the post-LEEP questionnaire for each patient. Results. A total of 67 sexually active women undergoing LEEP for the treatment of cervical intraepithelial lesions were enrolled. Nine of these patients (13.4%) completed only the questionnaire regarding their sexual function before LEEP; thus we did not include them for final analysis. In our study population, data showed a sexual function overall unchanged after LEEP; only the variable "desire" (sexual interest) became significantly worse (P = 0.02). Conclusions. LEEP for the treatment of cervical intraepithelial lesions doesn't affect women's sexuality, when compared with sexual function before surgery. In our study, all FSFI sexual function domains but desire, did not show significant change after LEEP. Serati M, Salvatore S, Cattoni E, Zanirato M, Mauri S, Siesto G, Cromi A, Ghezzi F, and Bolis P.
