    Notes: Abstract Serum hyaluronan (HA) levels were measured in a rat model of collagen arthritis using a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Values became elevated as the arthritis developed, correlating with its severity. Daily subcutaneous treatment with cyclosporin at the dose of 25 mg/kg per day for fourteen days completely prevented anti-type II collagen antibody production and the serum HA increase as well as development of collagen arthritis. HA in the blood may thus provide a good quantitative marker for joint disease in rat collagen arthritis with potential as a tool for evaluation of drug efficacy in this experimental model.

    Notes: Abstract Seven cases of phalangeal microgeodic syndrome in childhood are reported. Reviewing the literature, we have found a total of thirty Japanese cases, including the cases of our own. On the other hand, only ten cases have been reported outside Japan. The mean age of onset of the Japanese cases was six and a half years, which is older than that in the initial description. Of further interest is the fact that all the cases in Japan occurred sporadically and exclusively in winter, and regressed spontaneously and fairly rapidly within six months. Furthermore, most of the cases reported in Europe also occurred in the winter months. These facts imply an etiological relationship between the lowered temperature and the bone lesions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary To evaluate whether it is appropriate to estimate the postoperative curability of gastric cancer based on the 5-year survival rate, we compared 5- and 10-year survival rates in 477 primary gastric cancer patients who had undergone gastrectomy during the 8-year period from 1960–1967. In patients who had died more than 5 years after surgery, the cause of death was investigated. The 10-year survival rate of 315 curatively operated patients was 59.1%, 3.9% lower than the 5-year survival rate. Of 176 patients who survived more than 5 years postoperatively, only 9 (5.1%) died of cancer recurrence, suggesting that the 5-year survival rate adequately reflects the curative success of gastric cancer surgery.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Um herauszufinden, ob die 5-Jahres-Überlebensrate tatsächlich aussagekräftig betreffs der postoperativen Heilungsquote ist, wurden die 5- und 10-Jahres-Überlebensraten bei 477 Patienten mit primärem Magencarcinom verfolgt, die während einer 8-Jahresperiode von 1960 bis 1967 gastrektomiert wurden. Bei den Patienten, die mehr als 5 Jahre nach der Operation verstarben, wurde die Todesursache untersucht. Die 10-Jahre Überlebensrate von 315 kurativ operierten Patienten, lag bei 59,1% d. h. 3,9% niedriger als die 5-Jahres-Überlebensrate. Von 176 Patienten, die mehr als 5 Jahre nach der Krebsoperation überlebten, verstarben nur 9 (5,1%) an einem Krebsrezidiv. Somit wird demonstriert, daß die 5-Jahres-Überlebensquote tatsächlich den Heilerfolg bei der Magenkrebschirurgie adäquat reflektiert.

    Notes: Summary We performed intraoperative peritoneal cytology in 171 gastric cancer patients undergoing curative surgery. Intraperitoneal free cancer cells were demonstrated in almost all patients in whom the area of serosal cancer invasion exceeded 15–20 cm2. In patients with both serosal cancer invasion and free cancer cells the 5-year survival rat was 13% as compared with 85% for patients who had neither, and 40% for patients who had serosal invasion but no free peritoneal cancer cells. Peritoneal metastasis was the most frequently observed recurrence pattern. There-fore, in gastric cancer patients with marked serosal invasion, intraoperative IP administration of cytocidal anticancer drugs should be considered.

    Notes: Summary Four cases from two families with dermatan sulfate mucopolysacchariduria who lack α-L-iduronidase in peripheral leukocytes are described. The clinical and roentgenographic features of these cases represent an intermediate phenotype between Hurler's syndrome and Scheie's syndrome, and both parents in each family are first cousins. In the presence of parental consanguinity, a phenotypic variation or a third mutant allele at the iduronidase locus seems to be a more reasonable explanation for these cases than a genetic compound.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Nous avons étudié, sur la patte de rat, choisie comme modèle de transplant, l'effet du simple stockage au froid dans la solution Euro-Collins sur la prolongation du temps de conservation. Les pattes, amputées à mi-cuisse, ont été simplement plongées dans la solution, puis conservées dans un réfrigérateur à la température de 4°C. Après des durées variables de stockage au froid les pattes ont été greffées sur d'autres rats isogéniques, de façon micro-chirurgicale. Le taux de survie des transplants après 12, 24, 48 et 72 heures de conservation fut respectivement de 100%, 90%, 67% et 50%, et la plus longue durée de conservation efficace fut de 78 heures. Les taux de survie ont diminué de façon importante lorsque les transplants étaient d'abord perfusés avec la solution Euro-Collins puis immergés dans cette même solution. Dans un troisième groupe d'expériences, les pattes amputées furent conservées de façon traditionnelle par stockage au froid à l'air, et les taux de survie des greffes diminuèrent encore plus. L'évaluation par la mesure du gonflement de la patte greffée ainsi que l'examen microscopique ont confirmé l'efficacité de la simple immersion sans perfusion.
    Notes: Summary The effect of simple cold storage in Euro-Collins solution on prolonging successful preservation time was examined on an established rat limb transplant model. Limbs amputated at mid-thigh level were simply immersed in the solution and stored in a refrigerator at 4°C. After varying periods of cold storage, the limb was orthotopically grafted to another isogeneic rat using microsurgical techniques. The survival rates for 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours' storage were 100%, 90%, 67% and 50% respectively, and the longest time of successful preservation achieved was 78 hours. Survival rates were greatly decreased when amputated limbs were initially perfused with Euro-Collins solution and immersed in the same solution. In a third set of experiments, the limbs were preserved by a conventional method of cold storage in air, and the survival rates were decreased even further. Evaluation by measuring postoperative paw swelling and microscopic examination of the grafts further confirmed the effectiveness of the simple immersion method without perfusion.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Présentation des résultats du traitement de 12 malades atteints de rachitisme vitamino-résistant hypophosphatémique, de 4 autres malades chez qui le diagnostic ne fut porté qu'à l'âge adulte, et de 2 malades atteints d'ostéomalacie vitamino-résistante hypophosphatémique de l'adolescent. Le traitement par de hautes doses de vitamine D2 a été commencé entre 1 an et demi et 7 ans. La dose de vitamine D2 nécessaire au traitement du rachitisme varie considérablement selon la sévérité de l'affection et l'âge des malades. Quatre malades présentant des déformations des jambes ont eu besoin d'une ostéotomie ou d'un autre traitement chirurgical. Chez les autres malades, les déformations furent améliorées par le seul traitement médical. Le nanisme et les déformations sévères des jambes sont caractéristiques du rachitisme vitamino-résistant découvert à l'âge adulte. Radiologiquement il est caractérisé par la présence de zones de Looser, d'une trabéculation lâche, d'une accentuation de la densité osseuse et de calcifications ligamentaires. Ces malades posaient de nombreux et difficiles problèmes orthopédiques. Deux frères atteints d'ostéomalacie vitamino-résistante présentaient des douleurs osseuses, une faiblesse musculaire, une limitation de la mobilité du rachis et une diminution de taille. Le traitement par phosphate associé à de hautes doses de vitamine D2 fut spectaculaire, avec disparition complète de la faiblesse musculaire et des douleurs osseuses.
    Notes: Summary The results of the treatment of 12 patients with hypophosphataemic vitamin D-resistant rickets, 4 similar patients who were first diagnosed in adulthood, and 2 adult patients with hypophosphataemic vitamin D-resistant osteomalacia are presented. Treatment with a high dosage of Vitamin D2 was begun between 1 1/2 and 7 years of age. The dose of Vitamin D2 required for the treatment of rickets varied widely depending on the severity of the process and the age of the patient. Four patients with leg deformities required osteotomy or other operations. In other patients deformities improved with medical treatment alone. Dwarfism and severe deformity of the legs were characteristic features in rickets first diagnosed in adulthood. Radiographic features were Looser's zones, a coarse trabecular pattern, increased bone density and ligamentous calcification. These patients presented several difficult orthopaedic problems. Two brothers with hypophosphataemic vitamin Dresistant osteomalacia presented with bone pains, muscle weakness, limitation of motion in the back and height loss. Treatment with oral phosphate supplements in addition to high doses of Vitamin D2 was dramatic, with complete disappearance of muscle weakness and bone pain.

    Notes: Abstract The clinical and radiographic features of the intermediate form of osteopetrosis in two sibs are presented in which the disorder appears to have been inherited as a recessive trait. Although this form of osteopetrosis has been poorly delineated, its recognition is practically important in order to give an accurate prognosis. This paper also presents an unusual complication of bilateral avascular necrosis of the femoral head in the younger sib. Radiographic changes of the femoral heads suggest those of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, though the possibility of avascular necrosis following unrecognized femoral neck fracture is not completely excluded.

    Notes: Abstract The clinical and roentgenographic manifestations of six cases suffering from spondyloepiphyscal dysplasia tarda with progressive arthropathy are presented. The roentgenographic features consist of generalized platyspondyly and varying degrees of epiphyseal involvement with conspicuous enlargement of both ends of the short tubular bones of the hands. This disorder appears at an earlier age, and is more crippling than the usual form of spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda. It is suggested that orthopaedic measures are essential for all patients with this disorder, as profound disability may be expected by progressive involvement of the major joints.

    Notes: Abstract A rare case of lethal neonatal short-limbed platyspondylic dwarfism is described. Roentgenographic features of this case, distinctly different from those of the classical thanatophoric dysplasia, are indistinguishable from the other three types of short-limbed platyspondylic dwarfism. Histologic features of the cartilage in this case are not very different from those of the Torrance type, but the presence of focal disruption of column formation in this case suggests a wider spectrum for this entity.
