Abnormal epidermal changes after argon laser treatment.

A 26-year-old woman with a congenital port-wine stain on the forehead was treated three times at 2-month intervals with an argon laser. Six months after the last treatment, moderate blanching and mild scaling confined to the treated area was observed. A biopsy specimen of the treated area revealed a significant decrease in ectatic vessels. However, epidermal changes similar to those of actinic keratosis with disorganized cell layers and marked cytologic abnormalities were seen. Analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes for a defect in DNA repair was negative. Multiple, argon laser-induced photothermal effects may be responsible for the changes observed in our case and may lead to premalignant epidermal transformation.

[Prospective randomized study on the comparative effect between 10% HES 200/0.5 and 6% HES 200/0.5 in patients with hearing loss].

Two good comparable groups of patients (group 1 treated with 10% HES 200/0.5 + Naftidrofuryl; and group 2 treated with 6% HES 200/0.5 + Naftidrofuryl) with sudden hearing loss were compared with respect to their hearing recovery, hemorheological parameters and intravasal detectable HES fraction. The results showed an overall improvement of the hemorheological features. No difference between the two groups could be found wether in the hearing improvement nor the investigated parameters. We therefore conclude, that HES 6% is a good alternative to HES 10% for hemodilution therapy in cochleo-vestibular disorders.

Continuous induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis by gamma irradiation.

The induction of DNA-synthesis in non-S-phase cells is a very sensitive measure of a preceding damage of DNA. Usually, in an in vivo-in vitro test (treatment of an animal, incorporation of H3-thymidine in a cell suspension) the damaging of DNA takes place hours to days before the evaluation. In this case, the time course of the UDS-induction after a single dose of 1 Gy gamma irradiation was observed over a long period of time (21 months). C57 black mice served as test animals. In an age of about 80 days they were irradiated and the induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis was measured at ten time intervals during the whole life-span of the animals. Although the repair in this gamma radiation damage in DNA is a very quick process--with centrifugation in alkaline sucrose a half-life of some minutes is found--an induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis could be seen at the irradiated animals until the end of their life (640 days). The reason for this could be permanent disorders in cellular regulation caused by the gamma irradiation.
