    Notes: Abstract Thirty-two female patients with confirmed ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and 33 women of similar age with pure ileitis terminalis Crohn were examined for genitourinary infection. Urethral syndrome was found in 15 out of 32 patients with AS: 11 of them had urethritis and 4 urethritis associated with vaginitis. Five women of the control group suffered from urethritis. In all cases with genitourinary infection, Chlamydia trachomatis was isolated. By comparing the AS-patients (urogenital infection group and the non-infected group) with regard to other present clinical parameters, it was found, as expected, that the erythrocyte sedimentation rate in the 1st hour was significantly higher in the infected group. In addition, the infected patients had a significantly higher incidence of enthesopathy, involvement of the spinal column, and higher C-reactive protein values (CRP ≥ 5 mg/l). A family history of AS was equally present. Other clinical parameters, such as inflammatory involvement of the joints and HLA-B27 correlation, did not differ significantly between infected and non-infected patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung. Die endoskopische Carpalbandspaltung ist eine elegante minimal-invasive Methode der Therapie des Carpaltunnelsyndroms. Vom 1. 10. 1994 bis 7. 5. 1995 wurden in einer prospektiv angelegten Studie 46 Patienten dokumentiert, die an 55 Händen endoskopisch operiert wurden. Über eine Fragebogenaktion wurden die Ergebnisse eingeholt: An 51 von 55 Händen bestanden entweder keinerlei Beschwerden mehr oder diese waren so deutlich gebessert, daß die komplette Durchtrennung des Carpalbandes angenommen werden konnte. In 4 Fällen bestanden anhaltende Beschwerden, weshalb 2 Patienten nach weiterer Kontrolle nachoperiert wurden. Als Vorteil der endoskopischen Methode erwiesen sich die kosmetisch unauffällige Narbe und die reduzierte postoperative Arbeitsunfähigkeit. Komplikationen traten nicht auf. Herausgestellt werden muß die Notwendigkeit eines sorgfältigen Trainings des operierenden Chirurgen, besonders in der Lernphase.
    Notes: Summary. The endoscopic release of the carpal ligament gives the opportunity to treat the carpal tunnel syndrome in a comfortable and minimal invasive way. Between 1 October 1994 and 7 May 1995, 46 patients who underwent endoscopic surgery on 55 hands were documented in a prospective study. The following results were taken from a questionnaire. There were not any complaints, or the complaints were so much diminished that complete division of the carpal ligament could be viewed as accomplished in 51 of 55 cases. There were continuing complaints in four cases, and after an additional check two patients were operated on again. The advantage of the endoscopic method is the inconspicuous scar and the reduced postoperative disablement. No complications have occurred.
