    Notizen: Abstract A frequent change of drug combinations may circumvent drug resistance in the treatment of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). In study COALL 85/89 201 children with high-risk ALL were randomized to receive over a period of 8 months rotational chemotherapy with six drug combinations given either in slow rotation (SR) (each combination given twice in succession) or in rapid rotation (RR) (cach combination given once with a repetition of the drug combinations). Treatment of central nervous system leukaemia consisted of cranial irradiation and intrathecal methotrexate. Both SR and RR treatment groups were then given continuation chemotherapy of oral 6-mercaptopurine and methotrexate until 2 years after the date of diagnosis. The 9-year eventfree survival (EFS) rate for the whole group is 69%±3%, and the survival rate 75%±3% at a median follow up of 5.8 years. Failure to achieve remission at day 28 was the most important prognostic factor (EFS 12%±7% vs. 75%±3% in the remission group). In the RR group, 11/100 patients were not in remission at day 28 opposed to 7/101 patients in the SR group. Children aged 〈1 year (6/6 relapses) or aged 〉=10 years had a worse prognosis (EFS 64%±5% vs. 77%±4% in patients 1–10 years old). After 5 years EFS was inferior in the RR group attributable to a significantly higher relapse rate in children with a WBC〉=100/nl. The EFS at 9 years for all patients, however, is similar in both groups (SR 72%±5% vs. RR 67±5%).

In the RR group, 11/100 patients were not in remission at day 28 opposed to 7/101 patients in the SR group. Children aged 〈 1 year (6/6 relapses) or aged ^ 10 years had a worse prognosis (EFS 64% ± 5% vs. 77% ± 4% in patients 1–10 years old). After 5 years EFS was inferior in the RR group attributable to a significantly higher relapse rate in children with a WBC ^ 100/nl. The EFS at 9 years for all patients, however, is similar in both groups (SR 72% ± 5% vs. RR 67 ± 5%). Conclusion The COALL 85/89 treatment protocol with early intensive therapy and rotation of different drug combinations offers long-term disease-free survival for children with high-risk ALL. A continuous 4-week exposure to one drug combination may be necessary to achieve optimal results, especially in children with a high leukaemic cell burden.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Summary The term Langerhans cell histiocytosis, previously “Histiocytosis X”, encompasses three different syndromes: eosinophilic granuloma of bone, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease and Abt-Letterer Siwe disease. All are rare manifestations in childhood. We report on a 10 year old boy presenting with a swelling in the occipital region and clinical signs of elevated intracranial pressure. The tentative diagnosis after examination, conventional radiologic procedures and computerized tomography was eosinophilic granuloma. Magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance imaging-angiography revealed the acute threat to the child caused by the intracranial expanding mass lesion with almost complete obstruction of the confluens sinuum. Thrombosis and the risk of bleeding were decreased by early and complete exstirpation of the tumor. After two years follow-up, no new lesions had appeared.
    Notizen: Zusammenfassung Die Langerhanszell-Histiozytose, bis vor wenigen Jahren als Histiozytose X bezeichnet, umfaßt 3 verschiedene Syndrome, nämlich das eosinophile Granulom, die Hand-Schüller-Christian-Krankheit sowie die Abt-Letterer-Siwe-Krankheit, und gehört zu den seltenen Erkrankungen des Kindesalters. Wir berichten über einen 10 jährigen Jungen, der mit einer Schwellung am Hinterkopf und beginnender Hirndrucksymptomatik zur stationären Aufnahme kam. Klinik, konventionelle radiologische Diagnostik und Computertomographie ließen differentialdiagnostisch ein eosinophiles Granulom als wahrscheinlich erscheinen. MRT und MRT-Angiographie zeigten jedoch die akute Bedrohung des Patienten durch das intrakraniale Wachstum der Raumforderung mit weitestgehender Obstruktion des Confluens sinuum. Thrombose bzw. Blutungsrisiko konnten durch eine frühzeitige und komplette Exstirpation des Tumors vermieden werden. Rezidive wurden innerhalb von 2 Jahren Nachbetreuung nicht beobachtet.
