[Obstructive jaundice and acute pancreatitis due to an obstruction of the afferent loop after billroth-II-resection].

An obstruction of the afferent loop after Billroth-II-resection is an extremely rare late complication of this procedure. We report on a 76-year-old female patient with a history of Billroth-II-resection 11 years ago who was admitted due to acute pancreatitis and obstructive jaundice. Abdominal sonography lead to the suspicion of a dilated afferent loop, which could be proven by means of magnetic resonance imaging. A tumorous lesion as cause of the obstructive jaundice was not detectable. Intraoperatively a volvulus of the small intestine and strangling adhesions near the Braun's anastomosis were seen, causing the obstruction of the afferent loop. Following reposition of the small intestine and adhesiolysis the patient gained a quick relief of symptoms and the jaundice disappeared completely.

Synthesis of pentasaccharide core structures corresponding to the genus-specific lipopolysaccharide epitope of Chlamydia.

The trisaccharides allyl O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->6)-O-2-aceta mid o-2-deoxy- beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- and -beta-D-glucopyranoside (16a and 16b), the tetrasaccharides allyl O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->4)-O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->6)-O-2-aceta mid o-2-deoxy- beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- and -beta-D-glucopyranoside (19a and 19b), and the pentasaccharides allyl O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->8)-O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->4)-O-(sodium 3-deoxy-alpha-D-manno-2-octulopyranosylonate)-(2-->6)-O-2-aceta mid o-2-deoxy-bet a -D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- and -beta-D-glucopyranoside (23a and 23b) were prepared. The glycosidic linkages were formed using 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-chloroacetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopy ran ose (6) and FeCl3 as promoter as well as per-O-acetylated Kdo mono- and di-saccharide bromide derivatives (12 and 20) under Helferich conditions. The oligosaccharides, which correspond to dephosphorylated part-structures of enterobacterial and chlamydial lipopolysaccharides, were characterized by NMR spectroscopy as well as plasma desorption and matrix-assisted laser desorption mass spectrometry.

Synthesis of allyl O-[sodium(alpha-D-glycero-D-talo-2- octulopyranosyl)onate]-(2-->6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosi de, a core constituent of the lipopolysaccharide from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus NCTC 10305.

Reaction of methyl 2,6-anhydro-2,3-dideoxy-D-manno-2-octenoate 1 with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid gave the 2,3-anhydro derivative 2, which was converted into the per-O-acetylated anomeric methyl glycosides of D-glycero-D-galacto-2-octulopyranosylonic acid in good yield. Subsequent inversion of the configuration at C-3 and deprotection afforded sodium (methyl beta-D-glycero-D-talo-2-octulopyranosid)onate. Alternatively, 2 was transformed into methyl (alpha-D-glycero-D-talo-2- octulopyranosyl bromide(onate derivatives. Reaction with methanol or allyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy- 3,4-O-(1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyldisiloxan-1,3-diyl)-beta-D-g lycopyranoside, promoted by silver triflate, gave good yields of the corresponding orthoester derivatives. Me3Si triflate-catalyzed orthoester rearrangement and removal of the protecting groups afforded sodium O-(methyl alpha-D-glycero- D-talo-2-octulopyranosid)onate and the disacchanide, allyl O-[sodium(alpha-D-glycero-D-talo-2- octulopyranosyl)onate]-(2-->6)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-gl ucopyranoside in high yield.

[Individual face masks as aids in quasi-3-D planning and completion of irradiation of tumors of the head and neck].

Apparatus for immobilizing the patient's head in an identically reproducible position is required, if the advantages of exact quasi-3-D-therapy planning are to be fully exploited for the irradiation of irregular target volumes in the head and neck area. The topics of this report are the production and application of individual thermoplastic masks in connection with special head supports for CT planning scans, simulation and irradiation.
