    Notes: Summary The tumour recurrence rate of 210 patients with operated hypophysomas were investigated. Depending on the surgicaal approach, total or subtotal extirpation of the adenomas, the recurrence rates varied from 10,4 to 35%. 33 patients with pituitary tumour recurrences were followed up over a period of 20 years. Clinical symptoms CT-results at relapse are represented. Serum prolactin level (PRL) was determined before and after surgical and radiotherapy of PRL-producing adenomas. In these cases PRL can be accepted as a tumour marker. 13 patients with relapsed hypophysomas received local irradiation (5.7 MeV linear accelerator) after recurrence operation. An individual comparison in the same patient between surgical therapy alone and combined surgical and radiotherapy was possible. Based on the obtained experience with this combined treatment a therapy scheme using combined surgery and radiotherapy in pituitary tumours is suggested.

    Notes: Summary In a 79-year-old woman, the progression of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinemia (AILD) to malignant lymphoma was observed within one year after diagnosis. Three biopsy specimens from lymph nodes and one tonsil, obtained at intervals of several months, showed an increasing destruction of the tissue architecture and the development of histological criteria for a lymphoid neoplasm, which at autopsy was confirmed as a malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The demonstration of a chromosomally abnormal clone in lymph node derived and the laboratory findings were in agreement with the histological changes and the sequential clinical deterioation. Initially, a symptom-free interval of eight months was achieved with prednisone therapy. However, this treatment failed after the malignant transformation had become evident.
