[Malignant hypothermia, 3 cases (author's transl)].

Malignant hypothermia seems to depend on a latent hereditary disposition, in the couse of which a defect in the storage of calcium at the cell membrane of the skeletal - and heart muscle happens. The aetiology of the disease could not be fully explained until now. The mechanism is especially triggered by medicaments in routine anaesthesiological use. There is no preanaesthesiologic method to detect persons prone to malignant hypothermia. 3 cases of this kind are dealt with in detail. All 3 patients came to death although the measures of treatment taken immediately corresponded completely to the present state of knowledge.

Determination of ABO antigens in fingernails using the APAAP (immunoalkaline phosphatase) technique.

Fingernail specimens with adherent nail-bed were taken from autopsy material with blood groups A, AB, B and O. Frozen 4-5-microns sections were submerged and floated carefully during each working step. Portions of fingernails were contaminated with blood and buccal cells, respectively. Furthermore, fingernail fragments of 8 volunteers were embedded in a biocomponent adhesive according to Grieve and Kotowski (Forensic Sci. Soc., 26 29-34) (1986) and cut by the usual microtome technique. APAAP staining is a proper method for demonstrating blood group antigens in fingernails from groove to margin. Frozen sections as well as smallest specimen embedded in a suitable adhesive are applicable for staining procedures. Using freshly prepared artificial stains, blood group constellations of red blood cells and/or buccal cells adherent on the surface of fingernails may be distinguished from the nail matrix.
