[The use of the determination of the immune competence of patients with malignant tumors of the maxillofacial area for making a diagnosis and prognosis].
The value of evidence of pretherapeutic investigations with the leucocyte adherence inhibition assay (LAI) for 5-year prognosis we examined in 42 patients with malignant tumors of the maxillo-facial region. We found a tendency of higher frequency of recurrence in patients with preoperative positive LAI, but this was not statistically significant. In 19 patients we accomplished follow-up studies until 20 months after operation. Here we found no false-positive LAI, so that a positive LAI indicated always a tumor recurrence (33% of patients with recurrence), but two thirds of patients with recurrence reacted negative. In conclusion the LAI is of too small sensitivity and of too high expense.

[Solitary plasmacytomas in the head area. Diagnostic and therapeutic considerations].
Based on two case reports the inherent problems of diagnosis and treatment of this rare tumor are discussed. The importance of a complex immunohistologic and immunochemical analysis of the monoclonal immunoglobulin produced by the tumor is emphasized. Determining the serum level of the immunoglobulin is decisive for establishing the necessary treatment strategy. Apart from the tumor-specific aftercare by a specialist, these patients always require additional treatment at an immunology clinic.
