[Large cell acanthoma (author's transl)].

The large cell acanthoma of Pinkus (1970) is a variety of actinic keratosis. It is characterized by extraordinary large cells with polyploidy. Out of 1027 actinic keratoses and 3241 seborrhoic keratoses, 4 cases of LCA could be found at the Department of Dermatology of the University of Cologne.

[High spinal anaesthesia following intrathoracic intercostal nerve block. Report of a case (author's transl)].

In a 59-year-old female, anaesthetized with halothane, nitrous oxide/oxygen, intercostal nerve blocks were performed after right lateral thoracotomy. Before closure of the chest four segments were blocked each with 3 ml 0.5% bupivacain (Marcain, Carbostesin) without adrenaline. Three minutes after the last injection, the blood pressure, heart rate, and central venous pressure fell. The postoperative neurological status showed a high spinal anaesthesia. The patient was able to be extubated 90' after the last block and there were no further complications. The possible mechanism of producing spinal anaesthesia after peripheral nerve blocks and the necessary precautions to avoid this complication are discussed.

[Headache and dependence on mixed analgesic preparations].

Six cases out of 38 women patients with persistent headache and abuse of analgesics are described in more detail. From the observations, inferences are drawn for a more specific and critical prescription of analgesics. The continuous taking of commercially available mixed preparations implicates among other risks the danger of the development or deterioration of chronic headaches. The main cause for the dependence is the barbiturate portion which is a common feature of the drugs taken.
