[Lipedema].

An overall view of the clinical findings in lipedema is given and of its treatment. Lipedema is shown to be a distinct illness, and not just a disturbance of the distribution pattern of subcutaneous fatty tissue. The diagnosis is based on an accurate history and specific criteria on clinical examination and palpation.

[Relation between post-thrombotic syndrome, ADP-induced thrombocyte aggregation and intrathrombocyte calcium content].

Correlation between postthrombotic syndrome, ADP-induced aggregation and intracellular calcium concentration. This study presents a comparison of the ADP-induced platelet aggregation and free cytosolic platelet calcium concentration between patients with postthrombotic syndrome and healthy volunteers. The half maximal effective dose of the platelet aggregation induced by ADP was significantly decreased in postthrombotic syndrome (p less than 0.005). The mean values were 0.42 mumol/l in postthrombotic syndrome (n = 22) and 1.00 mumol/l in normal controls (n = 25). The free intracellular calcium concentration was slightly but significantly diminished in patients compared with healthy volunteers. In both groups there was seen a remarkable interindividual spread of platelet calcium concentrations. There was seen no significant correlation between cytosolic calcium concentration of platelets and the half maximal effective dose of ADP-induction. Therefore the considerable enhanced aggregability in postthrombotic syndrome cannot explained with altered cytosolic calcium content of platelets.

[Clinical aspects of venous diseases and diagnostic demands on radiology].

The author deals with the clinical signs and treatment of the valvular incompetence of the venae saphenae in varicosis of the lower extremities, varicosis or insufficiency of the venae perforantes (an insufficiency of the deep venous system, manifested by an insufficiency of the valvular system of the vena femoralis and venae saphenae but not representing a post-thrombotic syndrome), phlebothrombosis and postthrombosis. Routine phlebography for diagnosing a number of venous diseases has become redundant especially by the use of noninvasive methods such as Doppler ultrasound and light reflection rheography. However, if there is a suspicion of a deep thrombosis in the leg, phlebography is imperative. Dermatological phlebography specialists would like the radiologists to supply them with phlebographic criteria for the disease pattern of the insufficiency of the venae perforantes, vena fermalis and venae saphenae as mentioned above. Whether Duplex scanning can replace phlebography in the long run remains to be seen.

Humans

[Venous diseases in pregnancy].

Fifty percent of all pregnant women are suffering from edema of the legs, one percent from phlebitis, and 0,14 percent from deep vein thrombosis. Usually, diagnosis is possible by non-invasive methods. In most cases, conservative therapy using elastic bandages is sufficient.

Female

[Diagnosis and therapy of anal eczema].

Eczema of the anus is symptomatic of different diseases, and pure symptomatic treatment should therefore not be carried out. After dermatological and proctological examinations have been performed, the correct diagnosis can be made and the therapy determined, which will then be successful.

Anus Diseases

[Anal fissure].

The symptoms and diagnosis of anal fissure are described. An acute fissure is treated by conservative therapy, but the chronic type requires surgical intervention.
