    Notes: Abstract Non-ionic contrast media (CM) are proven to be significantly safer than the high osmolar ionic contrast media (HOCM). Nevertheless deaths are reported after administration of non-ionic agents. The aim of the study was to investigate the rate of adverse reactions to non-ionic CM with special regard to high-risk patients and the effects of premedication with H1-and H2-receptor antagonists. In a prospective study conducted over about 2 years 12 995 examinations with intravenous or intra-arterial non-ionic CM were evaluated. Premedication with H1-and H2-antagonists was used in 1276 high-risk patients with known adverse reaction to CM, history of allergy or severe cardiac or pulmonary disease. 229 patients received no premedication inspite of known risk factors. In total, there were 143 (1.10%) adverse reactions (mild in 0.58%, moderate in 0.41% and severe in 0.05%). In high-risk patients there were adverse reactions in 4.37% without and in 1.57% with premedication. There were no severe adverse reactions in the high-risk patients after premedication. The age of the patient, CM dosage and CM concentration were not shown to be risk factors in the present study. In conclusion, the additional premedication with H1- and H2-antagonists could be an effective agent to reduce the risk of mild and moderate adverse reactions and to avoid severe adverse reactions in high-risk patients.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Dans cet article nous présentons la technique, les résultats ainsi que les complications et les indications de la section de l'aileron rotulien externe et la capsulorhaphie interne, à partir des résultats obtenus par l'examen de 7o malades souffrant les uns d'une légère latéralisation rotulienne externe et d'une hyperpression fémoro-patellaire externe (42 malades), les autres d'une luxation recidivante de la rotule (28 malades). La moyenne d'âge était de 26.2 ans (entre 9 et 54 ans). Au moment de l'examen de contrôle (m=64 mois) les malades ont été soumis à un examen clinique et radiologique. Les résultats ont été évalués conformément au score de Crosby et de Insall. 77 % des patients traités par relâchement latéral externe étaient satisfaits du résultat de l'opération (score analogue visuel) et 68 % des patients traités par capsulorhaphie. Par contre seulement 45 % des malades souffrant d'une ar-throse fémoro-patellaire traités par relâchement latéral externe parlaient d'une nette amélioration. Le score dit de Crosby et Insall donnait des résultats très significatifs mais ne montrait aucune différence parmi les résultats obtenus dans ces trois groupes. 13 % des malades souffraient d'un glissement de la rotule anormal en mobilisation active. Le test de glissement passif de la rotule montrait une hyper-mobilité de la rotule vers le côté latéral dans 37 % des cas et vers le côté médial dans 8o % des cas. Les radiographies des deux genoux montraient un angle de sulcus accru de 143 %. Cependant, aucune progression de l'arthrose n'a pu être relevée dans les articulations fémoro-patellaires opérées. Une hémarthrose post-opératoire précoce, nécessitant une révision, a été constatée dans un grand nombre de cas. Intérêt clinique: Vu les résultats sur les malades ayant souffert d'un syndrome d'hyperpression rotulienne sans arthrose patello-fémorale et les malades souffrant d'une luxation ou subluxation récidivante de la rotule, ces patients sont de bons candidats pour une section endoscopique de l'aileron rotulien externe et éventuellement pour capsulorhaphie interne. Dans une population relativement jeune la section endoscopique de l'aileron externe est une technique chirur-gicale relativement simple qui peut néanmoins être suivie par une technique “ouverte” en cas de défaillance de la première procédure.
    Notes: Summary Based on the results of 70 patients with mild lateral tracking and lateral compression of the patella, intact (22 patients) or defective (20 patients) cartilage of the patellofemoral joint, and recurrent patellofemoral dislocation (28 patients) we present the technique, results, complications and indications for the lateral retinacular release and medial imbrication of the vastus medialis obliquus. The average age of the patients was 26.2 years (range 9–54). At time of follow-up (m = 64 months) the patients were examined clinically as well as radiologically. The results were evaluated according to a Crosby and Insall score. 77% of the patients with mild lateral tracking and lateral compression (lateral release) were satisfied with the operative result (visual analog scale), as well as 68% of the patients with recurrent patellofemoral dislocation (lateral release and medial imbrication). Only 45% of the patients with patellofemoral arthritis (lateral release) reported an improvement in their condition after this procedure. The Crosby and Insall score showed significant improvement but did not show any difference between the 3 groups. 13% of the patients showed an abnormal lateral tracking of the patella in active motion. The passive patellar glide test showed patellar hypermobility to the lateral side in 37% of the cases and to the medial side in 80%. X-rays of both knees showed a sulcus angle of 143°. No progression in osteoarthritis in the operated patellofemoral joint was found. Hemarthrosis complicated a high number of cases in the early postoperative period, and in 3 cases an open revision was necessary. Clinical relevance: According to our results patients with patellar compression syndrome without patellofemoral arthrosis and patients with recurrent dislocation or subluxation of the patella are good candidates for endoscopic lateral release and medial imbrication of the medial vastus obliquus. In a young population endoscopic lateral release is a relatively simple surgical procedure making an open technique in failed cases possible later on.

    Notes: Summary A group of 94 male and 12 female patients who all suffered from ACL ruptures had a follow-up examination after a period of 14 to 21 years (m = 17.2 years). Each of them had undergone a primary arthrotomy with total or partial meniscectomy. In none of the cases, however, had operative repair of the ACL rupture been performed. The most frequent concomitant injury was a torn medial meniscus which occurred in 74.5% of the cases whereas a damaged lateral meniscus was found in 17.0% of the cases only. Chondromalacia of tibia, femur or patella was observed in 42.5% of the cases. Over 60% of the patients resumed their former sports activities, although in nearly 30% of these cases at a lower level whereas one third of the patients had to practice some other sport or were even forced to give up sports completely. 61.3% still complained about instability of the knee joint, 73.6% of the patients with partial or total meniscectomy had developed osteoarthritis of grade III and IV.

    Notes: It was once widely believed that standards of beauty were arbitrarily variable. Recent research suggests, however, that people's views of facial attractiveness are remarkably consistent, regardless of race, nationality or age. Facial characteristics are known to influence human attractiveness judgements and evolutionary psychologists suggest that these characteristics all pertain to health, leading to the conclusion that humans have evolved to view certain bodily features as attractive because the features were displayed by healthy others. Here we review some of the fundamental principles of sexual selection theory that apply to human beauty and summarize the major findings of human beauty perception.
