    Notes: Abstract Recurrent low-grade gliomas in children were studied with special reference to correlation between the computed tomography (CT) scan and pathological findings at recurrence. During the past 16 years (1970–1986) 105 cases of primary pediatric brain tumors were treated in our hospital. Seventeen of these had low-grade glioma, seven of which (five astrocytomas, one ependymoma, and one subependymoma) had recurrence of tumor by the end of 1987. The enhanced CT findings were classified into three types — cystic, false cystic, and solid, according to Lapras' classification. The pathological findings of recurrent tumors were reviewed with particular attention to malignant transformation. The results showed that in two out of three cases where CT findings had changed from initial cystic to solid type at recurrence malignant transformation was revealed. Enhanced CT scan was also useful for detecting small asymptomatic recurrent tumors in children. On the other hand, surgical procedures and adjuvant therapies demonstrated no significant relationship with recurrence. It is suggested that the recurrence of low-grade glioma in children is not rare, and that changes in findings on contrast enhanced CT might reflect malignant transformation in a recurrent tumor, necessitating a careful follow-up.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Polymorphismus des FXIIIB wurde bei 555 unverwandten Japanern mit Hilfe der isoelektrischen Fokussierung und anschließendem Immunoblotting untersucht. Fünf allgemein vorkommende Phänotypen und die seltene Variante FXIIIB 15-3 wurden beobachtet. Die Allel-Frequenzen waren FXIIIB = 0,3063, FXIIIB2 = 0,0162, FXIIIB3 = 0,6766 und FXIIIB15 = 0,0009. Die Bestimmung der Phänotypen war auch an Blutspuren mit folgenden Lagerungsbedingungen möglich: Bei 37°C über einen Zeitraum bis zu 4 Monate, bei Raumtemperatur und bei 4°C länger als 6 Monate. Das FXIIIB-System kann einen neuen, aussagekräftigen genetischen Marker für gerichtsmedizinische Blutspurenuntersuchungen darstellen.
    Notes: Summary The polymorphism of FXIIIB was investigated in 555 unrelated Japanese individuals using isoelectric focusing and immunoblotting. Five common phenotypes and a rare variant type FXIIIB 15-3 were observed. The allele frequencies were FXIIIB*1 = 0.3063, FXIIIB*2 = 0.0162, FXIIIB*3 = 0.6766 and FXIIIB*15 = 0.0009. Phenotyping was also possible from bloodstains stored at 37°C for up to 4 months and from bloodstains stored at room temperature and at 4°C for over 6 months. The FXIIIB system can provide a new powerful genetic marker for the medicolegal grouping of bloodstains.
