    Notizen: Abstract. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of coaxial approach in difficult-to-cross lesions in patients with failed percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty by conventional over-the-wire exchange technique. Twelve stenoses in 10 patients (six women and four men; age range 19 ± 7 years) with uncontrolled hypertension were treated by this method. The stenosis was caused by nonspecific aortoarteritis in 8 patients and fibromuscular dysplasia in 2 patients. It was ostial in seven and post-ostial in five vessels. Conventional exchange technique was unsuccessful in all of them. All procedures were done by femoral route. Technical success was seen in 11 (92 %), without complication. The stenosis improved from 90 ± 2.1 % (range 80–100 %) to 6 ± 7 % (range 0–20 %), blood pressure decreased from 198 ± 12.3 mm Hg (range 180–220 mm Hg)/130 ± 6.7 mm Hg (range 120–140 mm Hg) to 119 ± 5.7 mm Hg (range 110–130 mm Hg)/83 ± 3.9 mm Hg (range 80–90 mm Hg), and number of drug treatments for hypertension fell from 3.6 ± 0.52 (range 3–4) to 1 ± 0.94 (range 0–3; p 〈 0.01). Percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty resulted in “cure” in 3 patients and “improvement” in 7 patients. Follow-up period was 3–21 months (mean 6.4 months). No restenosis was detected. Coaxial approach is safe and effective in treating difficult-to-cross lesions in which renal angioplasty by conventional exchange technique is unsuccessful.

    Notizen: Abstract Sixty-nine Kuwaiti patients with osteoarthritis (OA) were studied. Primary knee OA was seen in 65 (94.2%) patients. The mean age of this group was 53.18 years with a range of 39–97 years. The female to male ratio was 2.82∶1. OA was bilateral in 84.62% and predominantly involved the medial tibiofemoral joint. According to Kellgren's grading of knee OA, grade 1 changes were present in 40.0%, grade 2 in 32.5%, grade 3 in 22.5% and grade 4 in 5.0%. Grade I obesity was seen in 13%, grade II in 64% and grade III in 23% of patients. Generalised primary nodular OA was seen in only four patients, all of whom were women. Primary OA of the hip joint and chondrocalcinosis were conspicuous by their absence.

    Notizen: Abstract In seven recently diagnosed and untreated patients with tobacco amblyopia the light and dark adapted electroretinograms were recorded together with visual acuity, central fields and the Farnsworth-Munsell 100-Hue test. After 3 months treatment with injections of hydroxocobalamin all these tests were repeated. An improvement in visual acuity resulted in all cases. A significant reduction in the Farnsworth-Munsell total error score of the seven patients was noted (p 〈 0.01). A significant increase in the amplitude of the light adapted b-wave of the ERG was found (0.01 〈 p 〈 0.02) following the course of hydroxocobalamin injections. No other significant changes in the ERG were demonstrated. It is suggested that the ERG changes demonstrated an improvement in an abnormal biochemical state in those bipolar and perhaps Müller cells of the inner nuclear layer of the retina which make electrophysiological connections chiefly with foveal cones.
