[The diagnostic and therapeutic status of cancer of the bile ducts and liver].

In 1980 in the GDR 641 primary liver carcinomas (380 male, incidence 3.8, 261 female, 1.4) and 1834 biliary tract carcinomas (414 male, 3.7 and 1420 female, 7.0) had been registered by the National Cancer Registry. An analysis of stage, age-distribution. Operability and resectability had been performed. For all stages of liver carcinomas the 5-year-survival-rate was 3.5% (male) and 1.0% (female), for the biliary tract carcinomas 3.4 and 4.9% respectively. At present a significant improvement of treatment results cannot be expected.

[Fine-structure roentgen analysis for the determination of gallstone components].

Results of the determination of the chemical composition of human gallstones using X-ray diffraction method are reported. With simple handling it is possible beside identification of some other components to distinguish stones rich or poor in cholesterol already for smallest amounts of sample (greater than or equal to 10 mg, for instance endoscopically obtained material). This is significant with respect to the conservative medicamental therapy of lysis.

[Determination of the chemical composition of gallstones by roentgen ultrastructural analysis].

The definition of the chemical composition of human gallstones is shown by means of X-ray fine structure analysis. The simple method allowed a prompt distinction in stones poor and rich in cholesterol and of other ingredients. The method needs smallest test quantities (2 mg) in regard for a conservative medicamentous therapy.

[Abdominal radiation and mechanical ileus (author's transl)].

In 406 cases of mechanical ileus we observed 42 (10,3%) patients who previously underwent abdominal radiation following resection of an abdominal tumour. In 12 of these patients the intestinal obstruction was only caused by adhaesions, no presence of recurring tumour tissue. Because of the high percentage of benign stenoses laparotomy has to be performed in every case to differentiate the cause of obstruction.

[Deadly brain injuries (author's transl)].

Among 503 deadly brain injuries 71% have been caused by traffic accidents. In 93 patients the brain injury was not the direct cause of death. Total observations included: 170 intracranial haemorrhages; 106 smashes of the skull and 104 contusions. In patients with subdural and epidural haematomas angiography and trepanation were used in few cases.
