[Use of Tc-99m sulfur microcolloid for lymphoscintigraphy of neoplasms of the lymphatic system].

The usefulness of examination of lymphatic nodes with Technetium labelled microcolloid for assessment of lymphatic nodes in patients with non Hodgkin's lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease is discussed. Examination has been applied in 60 cases. The criteria of performance of the examinations in physiologic and pathologic conditions are described, together with comparison with other methods of examination. In the own material significant concordance of lymphoscintigraphic examinations with lymphography and CT has been found, whereas fairly big discrepancies resulted when lymphoscintigraphic and USG examination have been compared.

[Characteristics of the terminal segments of the lymphatic system of microcirculation according to the data of scanning electron microscopy].

Lymphatic capillaries and postcapillaries in the system of the connective tissue were studied by the method of scanning (raster) electron microscopy. It was shown that these capillaries consisted of chains of ballon-shaped structures-sinuses. Lymphatic capillaries represent an open system which is communicated with the intercellular matter of the connective tissue by means of openings ensuring filtration of the tissue liquid. Impairment of the absorbing function in the fibrous process in the lungs led to deposition in connective tissue cells of cellular detritus and foreign particles with formation around the walls of lymphatic capillaries and postcapillaries of residue-collector zones. Overgrowth of a rough fibrous tissue around these zones brought about atrophy and obliteration of vessels, gradual attenuation of the drenage function in the given region of microcirculation.

[Realities and uncertainties in normal and pathological physiology of the lymphatic system of the extremities].

In the special literature, values of pressures in the lymphatics trunks vary within very large limits, frequently in a contradictory manner, a fact that may generate confusion in the case of interpretation of pathological data. Following an analysis of numerous lymphographic aspects an explanation can be provided, for the radiological modifications of lymph vessels in various pathological circumstances, starting from the most plausible data concerning the lymph circulation in the limbs.

[The lymphatic system and the venous wall. Clinical aspects].

The differences between venous and reversible lymphatic oedema are minimal. Save a few rare exceptions, venous oedema are complicated at some stage by lymphatic oedema and become irreversible because of the fixation of water by the interstitial proteins and the hypertrophy of the conjunctival tissue.
