[Computed tomography in complex fractures of the ankle joint].

Diagnostic value of conventional roentgen technique and computed tomography is proofed by examination of 50 patients with sprain fractures of the ankle joint. The dimension of destruction of the distal tibial joint surface is better documented by CT than by other radiological techniques. Additional informations like multifragmentation of the distal tibia or evaluation of reposition impedigment are found more frequently by CT. Therefore indication and planning of the traumatherapy can be assessed better by the traumatologist.

[Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of soft tissue. Pathology and radiology of an unusual sarcoma].

Four cases of malignant fibrous histiocytomas are reported. An attempt is made to determine some characteristic roentgenologic features of this disease. There is no pathognomonic radiologic sign; however, angiographic documentation of hypervascularization together with neovascularity and absorption values of about 35 HE in computed tomography suggest a predominantly fibrous sarcoma. Differential diagnosis on abscess formation, tumours of the fat tissue and primary vascular neoplasms should be performed and these conditions ruled out if not applicable.

[Pathology and pathophysiology of circulatory shock with respect to shock lung (author's transl)].

The circulatory and acute generalized failure of the circulation, in particular of the lesser peripheral circulation, and may possibly but not necessarily be accompanied by a decrease in blood pressure and damage to the tissue due to a lack of oxygen. The main question concerning the causal pathogenesis of shock is still unsettled, but an interaction between a lack of oxygen as well as of other factors, like endotoxin, complements and vasoactive amines, and the presence of a microthrombosis must be held responsible for the appearance of this condition. In modern intensive medicine the lung must be considered as the preferential area for the manifestation of shock. The clinical picture of shock lung may be described as acute respiratory deficiency accompanied by an impaired diffusion of oxygen, an increase in dead-space ventilation together with an increased shunt volume and intensified respiratory activity. The pathology of shock lung shows two phases and has its onset in exudative alveolitis followed by alveolar fibrosis which can be hardly be controlled by therapy. The early phase of shock lung manifesting itself by exudative alveolitis is decisive with regard to diagnosis and further therapeutic measurements. If the condition can be brought under control at this stage there is a chance that the patient may survive.

Capillary embolization with Ethibloc: new embolization concept tested in dog kidneys.

Collateral vessels in tumors and arteriovenous malformations limit the effectiveness of therapeutic embolization. Capillary propagation of embolization media represents a possible solution of the problem. Embolization with Ethibloc (Hamburg-Norderstedt), a vegetable protein dissolved in alcohol, was performed in 15 renal arteries of dogs. Three embolized kidneys were completely resorbed, and four kidneys showed complete necrosis microscopically. Ethibloc in combination with 40% glucose guarantees homogenous embolization of the entire arterial bed including the capillaries. No complications were observed in other organs.

Morphologic development of human shock lung.

In the initial phase of shock, edema spreads throughout the alveolar interstitium even before injury occurs in the alveolar epithelium and endothelium. The endothelium and the epithelium are damaged only subsequently, causing reduction in the average barrier thickness of the epithelium and the endothelium. A point of irreversibility is reached by the end of the first week. While early cell regeneration may be observed within the alveolar endothelium and epithelium, proliferation of fibroblasts and fibrosis of the alveolar wall occur in addition to edema which spreads within the interstitium. This widening of the gas exchange barrier may be considered as the anatomic substrate of respiratory insufficiency induced by shock. This enlargement continues up to the moment when thickening of the alveoli impedes satisfactory functioning of the lung, and, as consequence, threatens the life of the patient.

Fast and exact flow measurements with the fast Fourier flow technique.

The fast Fourier flow technique offers a convenient way for extremely exact flow measurements. In combination with ECG gating, arterial flow can be studied. The total acquisition time for a single measurement is about 10 s, an ECG-gated cine sequence can be acquired in about 4 min. Fast Fourier flow can, therefore, be easily combined with a conventional imaging examination.
