[Vasoactive polypeptide-producing pancreatic carcinoma].

Authors report a case of Verner-Morrison syndrome which occurred in a 75-year-old man. The syndrome was caused by a pancreas VIP-oma with the histological structure of adenocarcinoma. Treatment with somatostatin analogous (octreotid) was effective, but the outcome was lethal due to subsequent pulmonary embolism.

Adenocarcinoma↗

[Neuromuscular atrophy].

Author reports a case of neural muscular atrophy of a 59-year-old female patient, verified by autopsy and histologic examination. The histologic picture corresponded to the both I. and III. type of sensory-motor polyneuropathyes.

Age Factors↗

[Rapid course amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].

The case of a 58-year-old woman is reported, whose illness began with a pain in the left shoulder. Later a spastic palsy developed in the hands, and a flaccid one in the arms and lower limbs. After a treatment for 12 months she died from respiratory failure. The motor nerve cells in the spinal cord, brainstem and cerebral cortex together with the pyramidal tracts had degenerated symmetrically.

[The role of permeability in histological staining].

Ionic stain-binding is influenced by number of acid and basic groups, their dissociation equilibrium coefficient and isoelectric point of proteins, respectively, and by permeability, on tissue side and acid and basic character, respectively, ionic volume, isochronic and succedaneous way of application, respectively, and hydrogene ion concentration of solution on side of stain. With joint or sequent use of acid stains of different ionic volume, permeability order of certain tissue elements, their relative permeability can be determined.

Histological Techniques↗

[The impregnation of glial fibers].

The author studied the influence of the solvents and of the rinsing fluids on the result of silver impregnation. A titrimetric method is described for the determination of the concentration of formaldehyde solutions.

Formaldehyde↗

[Differential staining of calcium compounds in histologic sections].

An experimental protocol is proposed for the differentiation of calcium-hydrogen-phosphate, tri-calcium-phosphate, calcium-oxalate, calcium-urate and fatty acidic calcium. For tissue fixation calcium acetate-formaldehyde is recommended in which fatty acids and earth-metal urates form insoluble calcium-salts which can be demonstrated in paraffin sections.

[Fixation of tissue specimens. II].

As a routine fixative calcium-acetate-formol is recommended causing no tissue shrinkage, haemolysis, formaldehyde pigments and having an almost neutral pH. Due to the formation of insoluble calcium salts it preserves fatty acids and water-soluble urates and makes them withstanding to paraffin embedding. If completed with methylene blue this solution is also suitable for an improved fixation of acidic glycosaminoglycans.

Acetates↗

[Amyloid staining. III].

Anisotrophy of collagen fibres can be abolished, without change of the anomalous colour of amyloid, by mounting Congo-red stained sections in glycerin. Treatment with sodium hydroxide solution prevents staining of secondary amyloid with Sirius red.
