[The clinical problem of living with one kidney].

The chance on a complete compensation of the residual kidney is the larger the earlier the nephrectomy as performed. Infections of the urinary tract, pyelonephritis, affection with calculi and functional disturbances are the most frequent diseases of the residual kidney particularly then, when the contralateral organ was also removed for these reasons. Specific tuberculous inflammations and tumorous affection of the residual kidney rarely appeared.

[Objective determination of prostate size with ultrasound].

The rectal digital examination of the prostate is, despite the high diagnostic value, for a large part subjective in its evidence. By means of the ultrasound examination the size of the prostate may be objectified, which otherwise is difficult to be described, and thus may be used as a firm and reproducible relation size in the diagnosis and control of the course of disease of the prostate which are accompanied by an increase of the organ.

[Pregnancy and delivery after renal transplantation (author's transl)].

A case report is given on a 21-years-old woman who became pregnant 18 months after renal transplantation. In spite of relatively unfavourable conditions (match 0,25; hypertension) renal function showed a good adaptation throughout the gestation. In the 38. week of pregnancy the woman was successfully delivered of a 2440 g healthy female child by vacuum extraction. There were no effects of the immunsuppressive drugs on the newborn. It is the third case of a successful delivery after renal transplantation in the GDR.

[Behavior of the renal perfusion resistance during automatic organ preservation].

It is reported on experimental investigations in the preservation of mini pig kidneys. At first the behaviour during the initial hypothermic gravitation perfusion is examined. From the relation of perfusate outflow to the perfusate inflow the perfusion quotient PQ is calculated. It is a measure for the volume storage developing during the perfusion (tissue oedema?) and significantly correlates with the warm dead time. The behaviour of the renal current resistance during the following machine permanent perfusion was examined with the help of KABI-albumin-solution and Collins-solution with 5% dextran M 40, and Collins-solution with 5% dextran M 75. Here was shown that the increase of the current resistance correlates with the preservation time depending on the PQ of the initial perfusion. The result is a typical behaviour for the individual solutions. We are of the opinion that the judgement of the behaviour of the kidneys during the machine perfusion must be seen in connection with the initial perfusion.

[Clinical aspects and treatment of acute kidney failure].

It is reported on haemodialyses which were carried out in the period from 1959--1978 in 157 patients with acute renal failure. Here in 25 cases developed exogenic intoxications. The surgically conditioned cases of acute renal failure were subdivided into 7 groups according to the basic diseases. The lethality of about 47% significantly differs in the individual surgical noxes from the data of literature. It is dealth with the general principles of treatment in these acute pictures of disease, which 1. consist in a basic treatment--maintenance of vital functions--and 2. in an elimination of the damaging noxe--elimination of the exogenic poison and removal of the surgical basic diseases and tiding over of the temporary deficiency of the renal function. Of the deceased patients about 16% came ad exitum in uraemia. The others died of the basic disease which could not be controlled. Thus the prognosis depends on the prognosis of the basic disease. In the intoxications the prognosis mainly depends on the dialysability and the quantity of the poison as well as on the time interval between intake of poison and beginning of the treatment.

[Vascular connections for hemodialysis with reference to thromboses and infections].

A survey of the at present possible vascular accesses and their valency for acute and chronic haemodialyses depending on age and body weight is followed by a comparison of the two most essential possibilities of access Scribner-shunt and fistula Brescia-Cimino. Thei main complications thombosis and infection are discussed and therapeutic directives are shown.

[Melanocytoblastoma in urology].

On the basis of special literature presence and frequency of autochthonic melanomas in the uro-region are described. It is referred to 1 own case. The sequels of metastasizing are given in the chapter "secondary localisation" with the comprehensive reason for the decision, again to remove again an already functioning renal graft, when it becomes known, that a metastasising melanocytoma was present in the donor of the organ.

[Variations in the use of microscopic instruments for the examination of urinary calculi in routine professional practice and in research].

Generalising considerations concerning the problem of the analysis of urinary calculi as well as a longer testing within own examination prove modern microscopic methods and devices to be a scientific and practical instrumentarium for the examination of urinary calculi which has a good future. Expensive special microscopes may above all remained reserved for research examinations on urinary calculi, if simple laboratory microscopes for routine analyses of urinary calculi are supplemented by cheap additional constructing elements.

[Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy as a complication of immunosuppression in kidney transplantation].

The progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy is mostly observed as paraneoplastic complication of malignant lymphoproliferative systemic diseases. It may develop also under the influence of a long-term immunosuppressive therapy, as it is necessary in the rejection treatment of recipients or organ transplantations. It is reported on a 44-year-old man in whom a progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy with exitus letalis developed 6 months after a kidney transplantation and following immunosuppressive therapy. In the oligodendroglia of the marginal region of leukodystrophic foci in the centrum semiovale of the right cerebral hemisphere by means of electron microscopy paracrystalline situated virions of the type Papova were proved in most cases.

[Significance of prostatic biopsy in the diagnosis of chronic prostatitis].

It is reported on the importance of the prostate biopsy for the limitation of the prostate neurosis and the real chronic prostatitis. In own patients the tentative diagnosis "chronic prostatitis" could be proved histologically in only 8 out of 30 cases. We think the biopsy necessary in cases of chronic recurrent prostatitis, because the therapy depends extremely on the exact diagnosis and the complicating quota is relatively small in the prostate biopsy.
