[Various forms of the celiac trunk and its anastomoses with the superior mesenteric artery].

Three rare varieties of upper abdominal arteries were compared with similar cases in the anatomical literature. An attempt was made to obtain a classification of the supernumerary branches of the celiac trunk and of the anastomoses between the celiac trunk and the superior mesenteric artery. One or more supernumerary branches of the celiac artery can be observed: (1) the superior mesenteric artery; (2) an accessory hepatic artery; (3) a posterior pancreatic artery; (4) a colic artery; (5) an accessory splenic artery; (6) a connecting branch to the superior mesenteric artery, and (7) an inferior phrenic artery. The following types of anastomoses between the celiac artery and the superior mesenteric artery can be distinguished: (1) direct connection; (2) anastomoses within the hepatic artery; (3) anatomoses following pre- or postnatal stenosis, and (4) the pancreatic arcades. For the first type the theory of TANDLER (longitudinal anastomosis) is abandoned. The development of the second type is as yet unresolved. In the case of the last two types a postembryonal formation is possible.

[Accessory hepatic arteries and their nomenclatoric problems in radiology (author's transl)].

The numerous anatomical and radiological nomenclatures of hepatic arteries are compared and discussed. Our own material for the assessment of accessory hepatic arteries consisted of 220 anatomically prepared individuals and 74 angiograms. The individual branches in the normal case as well as all variations and their frequency are discussed. The present, often confusing nomenclature is critically reviewed and an attempt is made to establish a simple and clinically acceptable nomenclature. We propose to name the additional branches supplying the liver as 'arteria hepatica accessoria' with reference to the vessel from which they originate. Additional branches in the terminal branching (ramus accessorius) and vessels of the liver capsula should not be referred to as accessory hepatic arteries.

A practicable two-dimensional electrophoresis of urinary proteins as a useful tool in medical diagnosis.

Practical experience with a rapid two-dimensional electrophoresis technique for routine analysis of urinary proteins is discussed. The method consists of cellulose acetate electrophoresis in combination with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) electrophoresis, performed together with Coomassie Blue gel staining on "PhastSystem". Over 400 analyses were performed within the time of two years. Most patients were from nephrological, urological and kidney-transplant departments. Some of them were from obstetric, pediatric or oncological departments. A systematic discussion and evaluation of the two-dimensional protein pattern with typical examples is outlined.
