A total of 63 women had been coded for ovarian carcinoma during the period; 48 had undergone cytological or histological investigation, of which six had undergone tissue biopsy, despite having had a cytological diagnosis. In all six cases (100%), the tissue biopsy concurred with the original diagnosis. We conclude that, where a clinically- and radiologically-correlated cytological diagnosis is made, the benefits of an invasive procedure to obtain tissue samples do not outweigh the risks to the patient.

Twelve volunteers (six doctors and six non-medical staff) participated in seven workshops held weekly. Four aims were identified: to help put thoughts onto paper; to facilitate interpretation of narrative; to encourage expression of emotions related to illness and death, and to encourage creativity. The course was evaluated using participant observational analysis and two questionnaires. This paper discusses the outcomes in relation to these aims, but identifies additional issues raised by the development. Only six of the 12 participants produced a final piece of written work, with lack of self discipline being cited as the chief reason. There was a strong tendency for self reflection in the group, which needed appropriate support. How creativity can be encouraged remains unclear. The value of multidisciplinary learning in this context was identified. The value of creative writing for medical education remains difficult to measure, but the participants agreed unanimously that the course would be an enjoyable way of encouraging medical students in its stated aims.

Study design: A prospective controlled study into experiential learning methods applied to patients with four months' follow up. Seventy-three primiparous women attending the antenatal clinic at the West Suffolk Hospital for their 32 weeks check were allocated to two groups on the basis of date of attendance. Multiple pregnancy and serious illness were excluded. Thirty-three women attended a two hour seminar on breast feeding using experiential techniques. Forty had routine antenatal care and acted as controls. Breast feeding rates of the two groups were recorded at various stages. Assessment also included comments from questionnaires. Results: The two groups did not differ significantly in the number of women proposing to breast feed their infants (Z ¼ À0:0490, P ¼ 0:9609) nor in the numbers of women breast feeding on day one (Z ¼ À0:6203, P ¼ 0:5350). There were proportionally more women breast feeding their infants at two weeks (Z ¼ À1:4944, P ¼ 0:1351) in the subject group, but this was not statistically significant. However, the difference at four months was significant, (Z ¼ À2:5784, P ¼ 0:0099), more than double the percentage of controls maintaining some breast feeding to four months in the subject group. Conclusions: Experiential learning was associated with increased rates of prolonged breast feeding, possibly due to increased patient confidence in their choice. This learning approach could be applied to other areas of patient health education.

The author argues that the humanities are both marginalised and required and that the humanities can provide a means to redefine values within medical practice.
