    Notes: Summary During a period of 9 years we used the pediatric BFM-NHL protocol for treatment of 14 adult patients with Burkitt's lymphoma or L3 acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Ten of 14 patients obtained a complete remission including 5/8 with stage-IV disease or B-ALL. After a median follow-up of 55 months none of these ten patients relapsed. The projected survival after 8 years is 71%. Toxicity was moderate, with one early death; a tumor lysis syndrome occurred in four patients. From our experience we conclude that the BFM-NHL protocol is very effective in adult patients, with a high cure rate and acceptable toxicity, even in advanced stages of disease.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Background: In rare cases a hypernatremia is caused by cerebral dysregulation. Case: We describe a 3,5 year old girl who had a hypodipsic-hypernatremia-syndrome (serum sodium concentration 194 mmol/l) caused by an arachnoid cyst in front of the pons. Therapy: In a stereotactic puncture a catheter was implanted. Aspiration of the cyst liquid did reduce the size of the cyst. For two years now no other treatment is given. Hypernatremia did not occur again. Discussion: To our knowledge this is the first case of a hypodipsic-hypernatremia-syndrome caused by an arachnoid cyst, which was cured by a single operation.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Hintergrund: In seltenen Fällen werden Hypernatriämien durch zerebrale Regulationsstörungen verursacht. Fall: Wir berichten von einem 3,5 Jahre alten Mädchen, bei dem ein Hypernatriämie-Hypodypsie-Syndrom (Serumnatrium 194 mmol/l) durch eine präpontine Arachnoidalzyste verursacht wurde. Therapie: Durch eine stereotaktische Operation wurde ein Katheter implantiert. Der Zysteninhalt wurde aspiriert und die Zyste dadurch verkleinert. Seit 2 Jahren trat ohne medikamentöse Therapie keine Hypernatriämie mehr auf. Diskussion: In diesem Fall konnte nach unserem Wissen erstmals ein Hypernatriämie-Hypodypsie- Syndrom, das durch eine Arachnoidalzyste verursacht wurde, durch eine Operation geheilt werden.
