    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung. Wir berichten über den Fall eines Patienten mit Oesophaguscarcinom des mittleren Drittels im klinischem Stadium III, der nach kurativer thoracoabdomineller Oesophagusresektion eine Paraparese beider Beine mit Sensibilitätsausfall ab TH12/L1 und zusätzlich dissoziierter sensomotorischer Empfindungsstörung ab C6/C7 rechts sowie ab TH5 links entwickelte. Ursache war offenbar die Abschilferung eines Aortenwandplaques mit partieller Verlegung der A. radicularis magna (Adamkiewicz) bei bekannter fortgeschrittener Arteriosklerose. In der Literatur ist das Spinalis-anterior-Syndrom überwiegend nach Operationen der thorakalen Aorta beobachtet worden und nicht nach Eingriffen an der Speiseröhre. Über diese seltene, aber schwerwiegende Komplikation bedarf es vor Oesophaguseingriffen keiner zusätzlichen Aufklärung.
    Notes: Summary. We report a case of postoperative paraplegia resembling an anterior spinal artery syndrome after curative esophagectomy in a patient with carcinoma of esophagus and clinical stage III (UICC). Neurologic deficit was characterized by loss of sensibility at the level of T12/L1 together with paraparesis of both lower extremities. Furthermore, dissociated sensorimotor depletion at C6/C7 (rightsided) and at T5 (leftsided) was noted. This severe complication was most probably caused by peeling of an arteriosclerotic plaque of the thoracic aorta due to preexisting advanced arteriosclerosis, leading to a partial occlusion of the great radicular artery of Adamkiewicz. Even though anterior spinal artery syndrome is a well-known problem in the operative management of thoracic aortic aneurysms, this complication has not previously been reported after esophagectomy.

    Notes: Abstract The unusual venom of Apis cerana contains large oily droplets within an otherwise aqueous secretion. Chemical analysis (GC-MS) revealed that the venom oil consists of (Z)-11-eicosen-1-ol (81.2%), other linear alcohols (7.7%), and linear hydrocarbons (11.1%). The eicosenol is present in extremely large quantities, averaging over 250 μg per insect, and is absent, or present in small quantities, in other parts of the sting apparatus. An investigation of the site of eicosenol storage in A. mellifera showed it to be absent from the venom and to be associated with the setose area where the more volatile components of the alarm pheromone are stored, as previously shown by others. A third honeybee species, A. dorsata, does not to contain the alcohol. The function of eicosenol in A. cerana in not clear, but may serve to mark stung intruders with pheromone or to attract foragers to marked floral resources.
