[Morphological studies of experimental lung transplantation. I. Light microscopic and histochemical findings in autotransplants of dog lungs].

Morphological investigations (light microscopy, semithin sections, histochemistry) on autografted lungs showed two changes with mifferent regional distributions. In the upper lobes were found focal areas of slight fibrosis, in the upper and lower lobes degenerative changes especially of the small bronchi and bronchioles with a focal loss of activity of alkaline phosphatase, nonspecific esterase and some dehydrogenase. Possible reasons for these morphological changes are discussed in connection with functional and biochemical results.

[Quantitative determination of menstrual blood loss using the clinical whole-body counter].

In 20 females the whole-body retention test using 59Fe was carried out for quantitative determination of menstrual blood loss. In hypomenorrhoea blood loss ranged from 10 to 40 ml and in normal menstruation from 70 to 150 ml. Blood losses in excess of 150 ml should be considered as hypermenorrhoea. This method constitutes an extension of diagnostic facilities with respect to confirmation of data given in the history of the patients concerning blood loss at menstruation and with particular problems (e.g. undisclosed cases of anaemia, bleedings with uterus myomatosus or with an indwelling endouterine pessary).

[Brain scintigraphic check-ups during inflammatory CNS diseases to prove absence or presence of brain abscesses and subdural empyemas].

Methods of instrumental diagnosis, which are used to provide evidence for the absence of complications associated with inflammatory processes of the central nervous system and which often give unsatisfactory results in addition to being accompanied by major risks, are compared with long-time scintigraphic reexaminactions which involve no danger to the patient examined by this method. This comparison has been made from the point of view of workers at a department of neuroradiology of a clinic of neurosurgery. Process-like developments into abscesses or empyemata as well as mixed conditions may be readily diagnosed by cerebral scintigraphy so that it is sufficient to make only one single angiographic examination which, if necessary, may be directly followed by neurosurgical intervention.
