[Auriculotemporal syndrome].

After a survey of the literature about etiological and physiopathological data or hypothesis, the different therapeutic possibilities are quoted. According to our experience we describe the occurrence of the Auriculotemporal Syndrome in a total of 157 parotidectomies performed in our clinic during the past seven years. One single post-traumatic case is commented. About 30% of our post-parotidectomic patients were incommodated by the syndrome, more specifically as an aggravating transpiration in the temporal region during meals. The greater number of patients experienced a distinct improvement applying a simple Scopolamin-salve; as a result we prefer this conservative therapy to a more aggressive treatment. However, whether we could prevent the appearance of the syndrome by using a more subtle surgical technique particularly in the region of the preauricular blood vessels, remains an open question.

[Possibilities for pain reduction by the prevention of edemas and elimination of endogenous pain producing substances].

The contemporary view of the cause of pain in case of histological lesions is discussed, i.e. the mechanisms of the formation of local high-protein oedemas in connexion with disorders of lymphatic drainage. 295 patients of an oral-surgical department were subjected to a systematic therapeutic study for investigating the possibilities of medicamentously influencing oedema and pain. Tested by way of comparison were a benzopyrone preparation (Venalot) and oxyphenbutazone. A group of control patients could only make use of an analgetic. The assessment of the reduction of oedema was done by means of anthropometric measurements. The analgetic action was judged by the need of analgetics. The result of it was that the benzopyrone preparation possesses a strong analgetic and antioedematous action which also exceeds that of the comparative therapy. The benzopyrones' clinical mechanisms of action are discussed in the light of experimental results.

[Malignant hyperthermia, chronic alcoholism and tubular aggregates (author's transl)].

A 24-year-old chronic alcoholic survived malignant hyperthermia which developed in connection with maxillo-facial operation. Electron-microscopic investigations of muscle biopsies disclosed so called tubular aggregates. The possible relations between these structures and the occurrence of malignant hyperthermia on the basis of an alcoholic myopathy are discussed. People suffering from idiopathic recurrent myoglobinuria have to be regarded as patients-at-risk.
