[Erythema nodosum in the clinical picture of internal diseases].

A study of 64 patients with erythema nodosum (EN), including 53 females, showed sarcoidosis diagnosed in 65% of the cases to be the principal cause of EN. It was followed by drug disease (10%), tuberculosis (3%), pregnancy or labor (5%), tumors (3%) and other underlying diseases (Behcet's diseases, streptococcal infection, histoplasmosis, nonspecific aorto-arteritis, chronic active hepatitis). The cause of EN could not be identified in 5% of patients only. Two or three possible etiologic factors were identified in 17%. Sarcoidosis combined with EN regressed without treatment in 82% of cases. Corticosteroid therapy was only given in cases of pulmonary lesion or other systemic manifestations. Purposeful investigation is believed to be capable of establishing etiology of EN in virtually all cases.

[Fever masks of malignant tumors].

During 5 years, the authors followed up 129 patients referred to the clinic with a diagnosis of fever of unclear genesis. In 36.4% of cases, fever masked malignant neoplasms. Hyperthermia was ahead of the emergence of the symptoms of a tumor (maximally up to 12 years), dominated or was the only symptom for a time being. However, in most cases it combined with other paraneoplastic masks (rheumatic, hematological, hepatological, etc), was resistant to the treatment and disappeared after radical treatment.

[Paraneoplastic syndromes in bronchogenic carcinomas].

During 5 years the authors followed up 35 patients with bronchogenic carcinomas. Of these, 34.3% had diverse paraneoplastic manifestations. The paraneoplastic reactions determined by ectopic production of different hormones and other substances as well as so-called "masks" of the systemic diseases are reviewed. An attempt is made to specify the basic mechanisms of the pathogenesis of each paraneoplastic sign.

[Clinico-morphological characteristics of Sjögren's syndrome (biopsy and autopsy data)].

Sixty patients with Sjogren's disease (SD) were examined. In all the patients--women aged 23 to 70, apart from the generalized "dry syndrome", there were signs of involvement of other organs and systems. Biopsy and autopsy material was studied histologically and histochemically, in some cases immunofluorescent and electron-microscopical study was performed. The most pronounced morphological and clinical manifestations of SD were linked with the damage to exocrine glands. Their alterations were represented by delayed type hypersensitivity and were similar in all exocrine glands, hence the exocrine tissue might be regarded as a target tissue in SD. One of the mechanisms of the exocrine tissue damage is connected with a mutual duct antigen of exocrine glands represented by the serum component IgA. The involvement of certain organs and systems with the development of chronic persistent hepatitis, fibrosing alveolitis, mesangioproliferative and tubulointerstitial nephritis, pronounced hyperplasia of lymphoid tissue with its plasmatization and generalized affection of the microcirculatory system of the immunocomplex nature, is noted in SD with various frequency.
