Parathyroid transplantation: fate of a long-term allograft in man.

Previously our group reported clinical, histological, and biochemical evidence of parathyroid allograft survival in a patient transplanted sequentially with renal and parathyroid tissues from the same donor. After 30 months of function, both grafts were concomitantly rrjected. The prolonged parathyroid allograft survival described in certain experimental animals has been attributed to the tissue's being "immunologically privileged." Our current clinical observations do not support this hypothesis.

Cologastric fistula as a complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy.

Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is frequently used for long-term enteral nutrition or gastrointestinal decompression in both adults and children. The rare complication of a cologastric fistula following PEG has been seen recently in two pediatric patients. One fistula did not close after removal of the gastrostomy tube. A mechanism for the occurrence of this complication in these two children is proposed and technical points are emphasized to prevent this complication.

Fully objective ERA by phase spectral analysis.

A method of ERA using the Vertex potential is presented which is entirely objective. The result is given by means of a statistical evaluation which is derived automatically. The method is based on pattern analysis of the V-potential, the technique relying essentially on analysis of the phase spectrum of the appropriate Fourier components.
