    Notes: Sixty-two cases of primary malignant lymphoma of the were investigated. Fifty-eight lymphomas were of B- and two of T-cell type. Two cases of high-grade homa could not be further classified. The largest group (43 cases) consisted of low-grade B-cell lymphoma of the bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue. These showed features similar to low-grade B-cell lymphomas of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue of the stomach. The low-grade lymphomas showed a peak occurrence in the sixth decade, the high-grade lymphomas in venth decade. Males predominated slightly. Three-quarters of the patients with low-grade B-cell lymphoma of the bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue showed solitary or multiple sharply defined nodules of the lung. The prognosis of the B-cell-derived lung lymphomas without constitutional symptoms was relatively favourable, regardless of whether they were of low- or high-grade malignancy, whereas patients with constitutional symptoms and the two patients with T-cell lymphomas showed a bad prognosis. However, recurrences and metastases in the lung, stomach, lymph nodes and salivary glands were seen in about 46% of the cases of low-grade B-cell lymphoma of the bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue.

    Notes: Amongst a total of 329 cases of low-grade B-cell lymphoma of Waldeyer's ring, we identified 12 cases that corresponded histomorphologically to low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type. These lymphomas are characterized by an extrafollicular growth pattern, often with a marginal zone-like arrangement, and by the centrocyte-like morphology of the tumour cells. They have not been described previously in this location. They predominantly affected the palatine tonsil. Ten cases were primary lymphomas of Waldeyer's ring. In two cases there was a simultaneous high-grade component. Two cases showed regional spread to cervical lymph nodes, but there was no widespread nodal involvement at the time of diagnosis. Immunohistochemically, all cases displayed B-cell markers and light chain restriction. Tropism of tumour cells for the epithelium was a consistent finding. In two cases involvement of Waldeyer's ring was secondary; in one of them the primary tumour was a gastric low-grade B-cell lymphoma of MALT type and in the other a high-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the stomach. These findings indicate that low-grade B-cell lymphomas of MALT type occurring in Waldeyer's ring should be included amongst the tumours of the MALT system. We surmise that in Waldeyer's ring such tumours are derived from the marginal zone, as has already been postulated for similar gastric tumours.

    Notes: Lymph nodes from 21 cases of generalized mastocytosis were studied histologically to confirm or exclude mast cell infiltration, and to investigate their micro-architecture. Mast cell infiltrates were detected in 17 (80%) of the lymph nodes and were found mainly in the medullary cords and sinuses. Diffuse infiltration was seen in 14 cases and focal infiltration in three cases. The following pathological findings were frequently observed: germinal centre hyperplasia (n= 14), which is probably a nonspecific finding; and hyperplasia of small blood vessels, which sometimes resembled high endothelial venules (14), eosinophilia (8), plasmacytosis (7) and collagen fibrosis (6), all of which may well be related to the effects of mediators released by mast cells. Infiltrates of acute or chronic myeloid leukaemia were seen in six lymph nodes. Division of the cases into two prognostically different groups, i.e. systemic mastocytosis, in which the skin lesions of urticaria pigmentosa are present and the prognosis is favourable, and malignant mastocytosis, in which there is no cutaneous involvement and the prognosis is poor, revealed that all six lymph nodes exhibiting leukaemic infiltrates came from the malignant mastocytosis group; eosinophilia, plasmacytosis and fibrosis were seen significantly more often in malignant than in systemic mastocytosis, but blood vessel hyperplasia and germinal centre hyperplasia were encountered with the same high frequency in both groups; and mast cell atypia tended to be more pronounced in malignant mastocytosis; this diagnosis could therefore easily be missed without naphthol AS-D chloroacetate esterase staining. In four lymph nodes no mast cell infiltrates could be detected, although two of these exhibited eosinophilia, plasmacytosis and fibrosis. As only one example of the lymphadenopathic variant of generalized mastocytosis was found amongst 181 archive and published cases reviewed, this would appear to be very rare.

    Notes: Twenty-eight cases of monocytoid B-cell lymphoma of lymph nodes and 16 lymph node metastases of primary gastric lymphomas, mostly low-grade B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type were investigated morphologically and immunohistochemically. Both groups showed the same morphological and immunohistochemical features: diagnostically important sites of infiltration were the sinuses and the marginal zones, The tumour cells were either medium-sized or small. The cytoplasm stained grey with Giemsa and was sometimes rather pale. In imprints the grey colour of the cytoplasm was a characteristic feature. The medium-sized cell type was more frequent; in one third of the cases it was combined with a prominent lymphoplasmacytic component from the same clone, and it resembled the monocytoid B-cells of the sinuses. The small cell type was less common, was not combined with a lymphoplasmacytic component and more closely resembled marginal zone cells. The difference was underlined by the negative reaction with the monoclonal antibody Ki-B3 in the small cell type, which, conversely, was positive in the medium-sized cell type and in the monocytoid B-cell reaction of the sinuses. Both of these cell types, however, showed a granular reaction with the new monoclonal antibody Ki-Mlp. The morphological and immunohistochemical parallels are arguments in favour of the assumption that monocytoid B-cell lymphoma is the nodal equivalent of low-grade B-cell lymphoma of MALT type. This is further supported by the fact that in nine of our 28 cases of monocytoid B-cell lymphoma, lymphomas were found simultaneously or subsequently in organs of the MALT. Monocytoid B-cell lymphoma must be differentiated from an infiltration that occurs in the form of clusters of monocytoid B-cells in other low-grade B-cell lymphomas, especially in immunocytoma with a high content of epithelioid cells.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Seit 1989 hat Interplast Germany mit 24 Teams 1528 Schwerverletzte Patienten des afghanischen Krieges in Peshawar, Pakistan, operiert. 5171 kleinere Operationen wurden ambulant durchgeführt. 15932 Patienten wurden untersucht. Damit ist eine Spezialabteilung in Peshawar, Pakistan, etabliert worden, deren Verdienst es ist, daß über 1500 Schwerverletzte Patienten nahe ihrem Heimatland und nahe ihren Familien operiert werden konnten. Auf der anderen Seite, sind dadurch den potentiellen Gastländern immense Kosten in ihrem Gesundheits-und Sozialwesen erspart geblieben. Die Qualität der Behandlung entspricht dem Standard, wie er in europäischen und anglo-amerikanischen Kliniken auch gewährleistet ist.
    Notes: Abstract Since 1980 Interplast Germany has sent many plastic surgeons to developing countries. In 1989 a new Interplast Germany program for helping Afghan refugees in Pakistan's Peshawar was started. The Federal Republic of Germany financed the first two years; thereafter, the European Community and Help supported the project. Twenty-four teams with 123 nurses, surgeons and anesthesiologists operated on 1,528 patients in two hospitals. In the same period 5,171 smaller operations have been performed and 15,932 patients have been examined. Low expense for the teams, good support by officials, and professional administration have made this project highly effective for 3 years.
