Osteocranioplasty of calotte defects with autoplastic rib segments in children.

Calotte defects that are larger than 3-5 cm require stable plastic reconstruction. Osseous regenerations take place at the connective tissue bone of the calotte if the dura is intact. Even large defects may be considerably reduced in this way within 2 or 3 years. Hence, indications must be critically reconsidered on a long-term basis. Autoplastic grafting of a rib segment has been known from the beginning of the present century. It has many advantages. Our approach, experience and results are presented.

[Occurrence of cancers in duplications of the digestive tract].

Sometimes duplications of the digestive tract are diagnosed not before adulthood. Single cases of malignant tumours in combination with duplications have been described previously. The poor incidence of this entity is documented by less than 20 reports in the last 107 years. There are so far no reports concerning the development of carcinomas within tubulous duplications of the oesophagus. The case of an adult patient having oesophageal duplication with an adenocarcinoma is reported.

[Surgery in esophageal atresia. Anatomical and functional aspects].

The first successfully operated newborn with esophageal atresia dates back more than 55 years. During this period the concept of the unity of structure and function for surgical treated malformations has been retained. Primary anastomosis offers the best prerequisites. Main life threatening complications are leakage of the anastomosis, anastomotic strictures and gastroesophageal reflux. Avoiding vital complications the aim of undisturbed function can be achieved by appropriate surgical methods. The report describes own experiences over the past 20 years.

[Multiple endocrine neoplasia of the II B type].

Multiple endocrine neoplasia, type II B (MEN II B) includes thyroid carcinoma, pheochromocytoma, ganglioneuromatosis and marfanoid habitus. Its short-term prognosis is determined by the tumour of the adrenal gland, whereas long-term prognosis is determined by the thyroid carcinoma. Often the well-defined but rare syndrome is diagnosed late. The MEN II B's therapy consists of thyroidectomy and adrenalectomy uni- or bilateral. The 5 year-rate of survival is 75%. Own observations are reported.

[Varicocele testis--a pediatric disease?].

The inquiries and evidences demonstrated deal with the consequences of the varicocele disease which had remained unattended in childhood. They are based on representative collective statistics and examinations of the own patients. The parameters density of spermatozoa, motility of spermatozoa, paternity, volume of the testes and histomorphology of the testes refer to the diminution of the fertility beyond adolescence. Operatively treated children have a more favourable prognosis of fertility.

Follow-up studies in 50 totally colectomised children.

We report on 50 totally colectomised children, most of whom suffered from Hirschsprung's disease. Of the 50, one child died postoperatively of enteritis. On an average, the children were re-examined 5 1/2 years after the colectomy. The findings were as follows: With the exception of four, the size and weight of the patients were within the norm; 20 passed frequent stools of pulpy consistency; 16 suffered from disturbances of continence; 14 developed severe, partially recurrent enteritis. We did not find any advantage of a single method of operation, e.g. Martin's operation.

[Results of total colectomy in childhood].

In nineteen colectomized children operated for Hirschsprung's disease in most instances, size and weight were within normal ranges about six years after surgery. They passed stools, mostly of pulpy consistence, once to ten-times a day, on average four times a day. Eleven children suffered from continence disturbances. Seven developed severe recurrent enteritis. These results as well as those of three children operated according to Martin's technique are compared with those in the literature.
