    Notes: Abstract Thirty-two children with Crohn's disease were evaluated by real-time ultrasonography. The typical pattern of Crohn's disease caused by bowel wall thickening is the “bull's eye phenomenon”, the elongated tubular stiff bowel loop with narrowing of the lumen and the small bowel conglomerate tumor. In indefinable abdominal complaints sonography may lead to the correct diagnosis. The differential diagnosis of similar sonographic features and the limitations of ultrasound in gastrointestinal disease must be considered. In proven Crohn's disease the findings in follow-up match the clinical course and may delineate complications, such as ileus, abscess, hydronephrosis, gallstones or involvement of parenchymal organs, as seen in 15 patients. Thus ultrasound will restrict repeated x-ray studies and support patient management.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of Cd, Zn and Cu was analyzed in nuclear, mitochondrial and cytosol cellular fractions of renal tumours and normal surrounding kidney tissues by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The normal kidney tissues were separated into cortical and medullary parts. A significant decrease of the Cd-levels was found in all cellular fractions from normal kidney to tumour tissues (hypernephroma). The Zn values varied strongly. We noted a slight decrease of Zn levels in renal tumour. The Cu concentration in the nucleus of kidney tumours was significantly increased.

    Notes: Abstract Ultrasonographic evaluation of 213 patients with urinary schistosomiasis in different age groups was performed in an endemic area of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The results were compared with 94 age matched controls without urinary schistosomiasis. In patients the bladder showed thickening of the wall, polypoid lesions of the mucosa and bladder wall, calcifications and urinary retention. Urinary tract obstruction, predominantly unilateral, was demonstrated. The lesions increased in severity with the intensity of infection, parallel to an increase in ova excretion. Children aged between 8 and 19 years were most severely affected. Pathological lesions of the upper urinary tract were rare in patients over 25 years of age. The combination of morphological abnormalities was interpreted as being specific for urinary schistosomiasis as they did not occur in the control group. It is suggested that real time ultrasonography may be used to identifiy morphological lesions in urinary schistosomiasis.

    Notes: Abstract Kidney size was determined in a sonographic study of 325 children without kidney pathology. Real-time ultrasound equipment adjusted for the pediatric age group, provided standardized renal biometry. Outer kidney diameters showed a linear correlation to somatic developmental parameters. Renal volume was established by the formula for an ellipsoid and showed good correlation to body weight. Growth charts for kidney length and volume in childhood are constructed and provide the basis for objective intra- and interindividual determination of renal size.

    Notes: Abstract Compensatory growth in 27 undiseased congenital solitary kidneys and in 31 solitary kidneys in patients with Wilms tumour was monitored in long-term follow-up studies by ultrasound volume biometry. In congenital solitary kidneys hypertrophy was not detectable at the time of birth. Parenchymal mass increase achieved 188% of the volume of a healthy kidney within at least 4 years of life and afterwards paralleled the physiological growth documented in healthy kidney pairs. Disease-free kidneys in Wilms tumour patients all developed a similar 180% volume augmentation within 2–4 years after nephrectomy, irrespective of the chosen mode of radiation and single or tripte chemotherapy. The age of the patient at onset of surgical and concomitant conservative therapy determined slight differences in kinetics but not in degree of compensatory growth.
