[Reconstructive venous surgery. Principles and technical prerequisites].

Abstract

The main prerequisites for successful reconstructive venous surgery include (1) critical selection of patients according to morphological and functional diagnostic aspects; (2) optimal surgical techniques; (3) the routine use of intraoperative lumen control in all disobliterative procedures (vascular endoscopy, phlebography); and (4) selective use of protective measures (temporary a.v. fistula, anticoagulans). Expanded PTFE-prostheses with increased microporosity and external ring support are the most suitable substitutes for big veins. Antireflux surgery, such as valvuloplasty, transposition technique and free valvular transfer, is a new approach for the repair of deep venous insufficiency.

[Spontaneous regression of cancer; a description of 7 cases].

OBJECTIVE: To trace and describe patients with spontaneous regression of cancer (SRC) in the Netherlands. SETTING: The Helen Dowling Institute for biopsychosocial medicine. DESIGN: Descriptive. METHOD: Informal collection and collection by means of calls in two local medical journals. In these calls colleagues were asked to suggest possible candidates to contact the investigator. Upon contact permission was obtained to collect the medical data. When SRC could be established an interview was conducted with the patient and with persons in his environment. RESULTS: Seven patients with spontaneous regression of cancer were traced. These spontaneous regressions concerned adenocarcinoma (2 cases), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (2 cases), mesothelioma, undifferentiated carcinoma or sarcoma (liver) and choriocarcinoma (1 case each). CONCLUSION: A call for cases in two local medical journals for colleagues proved to be a fast and inexpensive searching method. None of these cases had been published previously. The frequency of SRC in the period of 1980 upto and including 1989 in the Netherlands can be estimated to be at least 1:100,000.

Familial systematized epidermal nevus syndrome.

Epidermal nevi are typically congenital but rarely familial. We report on a family in which 3 relatives have systematized epidermal nevi. The propositus also has evidence of a hemangioma and a hemangioendothelioma. Peripheral blood and skin fibroblast karyotypes of the propositus did not show evidence of mosaicism. Epidermal nevi have been associated with nondermatologic pathology, involving the nervous, vascular, and skeletal systems in sporadic cases. This report demonstrates that nondermatologic pathology can be also be associated with systematized epidermal nevi in a familial setting. The apparent skipping of generations may be explained by autosomal dominant inheritance with decreased penetrance.
