[Resection of the superior vena cava in tumor occlusion].

Report about three cases of resection of the superior vena cava for tumor stenosis or occlusion. In one patient no reconstruction was performed while in the other two interposition of an armored PTFE-prosthesis between right brachio-cephalic vein and vena cava superior was carried out. In agreement with other authors it is concluded that best results can be obtained by reconstruction with a PTFE-prosthesis or autologous vein graft.

[Wound healing of the pelvis following abdominoperineal rectum extirpation. A comparison of 2 drainage procedures in a prospective randomized study].

In a prospectively randomized study we used two different ways of drainage of the sacral space after an abdomino-perineal-resection of the rectum. One group with 25 patients had a drainage anteriorly through the abdominal wall, the other 25 patients got a drainage posteriorly through the buttocks. In each case we used two closed silicone-drainage-systems without active suction. In 60% of the anterior and in 50% of the posterior drained cases we saw an unaffected primary healing of the sacral wound. There was no significant difference. The patients felt the anterior way of drainage to be more convenient. Contamination of the sacral space by disrupture of the rectum during the operation was followed by a sacral abscess in 50%.

[Diagnosis and surgical tactics in adrenal gland tumors].

Adrenal tumours are relatively rare. For localisation and reliable identification, stepwise radiological or nuclearmedical diagnosis should be added to targeted endocrinological diagnosis. Highest accuracy has been recordable from computed tomography, followed by phlebography, and arterial angiography. The authors feel that the extraperitoneal, lumbar approach can be considered a non-invasive, low-complication surgical method. It should be applied more often to cope with benign unilateral adrenal processes.

PAP I interacts with itself, PAP II, PAP III, and lithostathine/regIalpha.

PAP I, PAP II, PAP III, and lithostathine/regIalpha are members of a multigenic family of proteins expressed in several tissues. PAP I was shown to be antiapoptotic, mitogenic, and anti-inflammatory and can promote cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix. Lithostathine/regIalpha can be mitogenic. Because polymerization might regulate activity, we examined the ability of rat PAP I to interact with itself (homodimerization), PAP II, PAP III, and lithostathine/regIalpha (heterodimerization) by the yeast two-hybrid system, affinity experiments, and crosslinking. PAP I interacted significantly with all members of the PAP protein family, homodimerization showing the strongest interaction as judged by the beta-galactosidase test. This was confirmed by showing specific affinity between a MBP-rPAP I fusion protein and the native rPAP I. Finally, crosslinking experiments showed that rPAP I formed dimers in solution. These findings should be taken into account in functional studies involving PAP I and PAP-related proteins.
