Methodological and technical aspects as well as application and results of the precordial Xenon-residue-detection technique are critically reviewed. The results concern mainly normal flow in various regions of the heart esp. in the free wall of the right and left ventricle, poststenotic flow in patients with coronary artery disease in relation to the degree of proximal nar-rowings as well as wall motion of the corresponding LV segment, bypassgraft flow and flow after drug interventions esp. nitrates, betablockers, the calcium-antagonist Nifedipine and the coronary dilator Dipyridamole. In spite of its serious limitations (high affinity of Xenon for fatty tissue, geometrical problems in the assessment of flow and its relation to anatomy, gas exchange in situations of high flow etc.), the technique is found to be a usefull investigatory tool. Due to its technical display and the related high costs routine application is, however, prohibitive.

SummaryPurpose: Comparison of qualitative and quantitative sonography with the lymphoscintigraphic function test and clinical findings in legs. Patients, methods: In 33 patients a lymphoscintigraphic function test of legs combined with measurement of lymph node uptake was performed and subsequently compared with sonography. Sonographic criteria were: Thickness of cutis, thickness of subcutanean fatty tissue and presence of liquid structures or fine disperse tissue structure of lower limbs, foots and toes. Results: In 51 legs uptake values lie in the pathologic area, in four legs in the grey area and in ten legs in the normal area. The cutis thickness in the lower leg shows no significant correlation with the uptake. The determination of the thickness of the subcutanean fatty tissue of the lower leg and of the cutis thickness of the feet turned out to be an unreliable method. In 47% of the medial lower legs and in 57% of the lateral lower legs with clinical lymphoedema sonography is falsely negative. Conclusion: Early lymphoedema is only detectable with the lymphoscintigraphic function test. In the case of clinical lymphoedema clinical examination is more reliable than sonography.

Abstract A case of epidural lipomatosis in a 49-year-old man presenting with paraparesis, midthoracic pain, and Staphylococcus aureus pneumonia is reported. The patient had been on low dose corticosteroid therapy for 7 years for rheumatoid arthritis. The clinical and myelographic findings suggested a diagnosis of epidural abscess, but the only abnormality discovered at operation was abundant fatty tissue in the dorsal epidural space significantly compressing the spinal cord, and this was partially removed. Postoperative neurological improvement suggested that the lipomatosis was responsible for the spinal cord compression and dysfunction. If this diagnosis had been suspected, it might have been confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging or postmyelography computed tomographic scanning. With such a diagnosis, an alternative treatment could have been to decrease the steroid dose, observe for clinical improvement, and perhaps avoid operation. (Neurosurgery 21:744-747, 1987)

SUMMARYThe importance of the different adipose deposits with respect to the total dissectible fatty tissue in growing rabbits and lambs was studied. Development of the subcutaneous fat in the lamb is late and occurs after birth. In contrast, the internal types of fat, such as the perirenal and pelvic fat, represent at birth an important percentage of the total fat. They tend to lose part of their relative importance between 0 and 250 days after birth. In the rabbit the situation concerning the development of subcutaneous and perirenal fat is inverted. For both species the intermuscular fat remains almost constant in relative importance during the whole growth period.After the period required for the establishment of the different fat deposits, we could observe in lambs, and to a smaller degree in rabbits, a relative growth which tends to become isometric with regard to the total fat deposits.

Epileptiform Seizures

Dr. Bronnikov reported a case of Jackson's epilepsy treated operatively. A patient after being wounded with a hammer of the parietal bone first suffered paralysis of the right arm and difficulty in speaking, and after 2 months he had epileptiform seizures every 6 days. In the 4th month, he underwent surgery to remove fragments of the internal lamina pressing on the dura mater, and the defect was closed with a piece of fascia lata with fatty tissue. The patient was demonstrated 3 months after the operation; he had no seizures, his speech was normal, and his hand function had been restored.
