[Asymmetrical macrodactyly].
A case of asymmetrical macrodactyly is reported with special regard to the conservation of the remaining function. It is shown that partial resection of the metacarpal bones, performed for functional reasons, leads to a satisfying result, while the amputation of the fingers, proposed for cosmetic reasons, is not recommended.
Carpal Bones↗
[The Caroli syndrome].
Caroli's disease is characterized by congenital pseudocystic dilatation of the biliary tree. Inflammation and stone formation lead to clinical manifestation in the second decade. ERC and computed tomography are main diagnostic procedures. In cases, where the alterations are limited partial hepatectomy has been recommended. If dilatations are diffuse, the aim of surgical treatment is the performance of a choledochojejunostomy to realize drainage and prevent recurrent ascending cholangitis.

[Acute pancreatitis in animal experiments - a new method].
Acute pancreatitis was induced in 30 minipigs (Göttingen) by implantation of a T-drain into the Ductus Wirsungianus. The distal part of the T-drain, which led into the duodenum was stenosed to 1/3 of the original diameter. The inflammation was caused by stenosis of the Ductus Wirsungianus additionally by application of contrast medium. The course of the inflammation was demonstrated by biochemical, roentgenological and histological examinations.
Acute Disease↗
[Experimentally induced pancreatitis (author's transl)].
Pancreatitis was produced in 29 mini-pigs by partial occlusion of the pancreatic duct; occlusion was performed by implanting a T-drain into the duct. Inflammatory changes were induced additionally by applying radiopaque material in excess. Acute and chronic pancreatitic lesions could be diagnosed by X-ray examination, evaluation of blood chemistry and by histology.

[Surgical management of incontinence in rectal constipation (author's transl)].
In rectal constipation chronic filling of the rectum with feces will cause continuous rectal dilatation, a permanent stimulus for defecation and finally rectal incontinence. Reduction of rectal volume and perfect continence may be achieved in these cases by surgical removal of part of the elongated colon; thus surgery may have its place as an alternative to medical treatment of this disease. Patients with rectal constipation do not have an aganglionic segment of the colon, as is the case in Hirschsprung's disease; the dilated part of the colon is characterized on the contrary by hypertrophic intestinal wall.
