    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung. Eine akute Blutung aus einer Pseudocyste oder einem Pseudoaneurysma ist eine gefürchtete Komplikation der chronischen Pankreatitis. Während die chirurgische Intervention nach wie vor eine hohe perioperative Letalität aufweist (16,8 %), scheint die zunehmend eingesetzte arterielle Katheterembolisation weniger riskant zu sein (6,1 %). Wir berichten über 6 Patienten mit Pseudocysten oder -aneurysmen an unserer Klinik, von denen 4 primär chirurgisch behandelt, die anderen beiden embolisiert wurden. Bei einem Patienten mußte 10 Tage nach Embolisation zusätzlich laparotomiert werden. Alle Patienten überlebten. Der Vergleich zweier Literaturperioden (von 1951 bis 1981 und von 1982 bis 1996) zeigt, wie wertvoll die arterielle Katheterembolisation zur Senkung der Letalität bei blutenden Pankreaspseudocysten und -aneurysmen ist.
    Notes: Summary. Acute hemorrhage from pseudocysts and pseudoaneurysms is a threatening complication of chronic pancreatitis. Whilst surgical intervention still has high perioperative mortality (16.8 %), transcatheter arterial embolization is becoming more frequently used for suitable cases and appears to have lower mortality (6.1 %). We report on six patients treated in our unit. Four of them underwent primary surgical treatment, the other two were treated by embolisation. One of the latter patients subsequently required laparotomy for further treatment. All six patients survived. Comparing the literature covering the periods between 1951 and 1981 and between 1982 and 1996, transcatheter embolisation seems to be valuable in controlling this type of bleeding, thereby reducing mortality.

    Notes: Abstract As the modern treatment for anal carcinoma is either radiotherapy alone or combined radiochemotherapy, an exact histological staging is impossible. Therefore we have to depend on an accurate preoperative staging method. Endoanal ultrasonography enables imaging of the normal anal canal and its pathologies. In a prospective investigation we were able to confirm the histological proven diagnosis of an anal epidermoid carcinoma in 12 patients with a 10-MHz transducer covered with a sonolucent plastic cone. The depth of infiltration can be determined in relation to the normal layers of the anal canal. Six patients treated with radiotherapy alone or combined radiochemotherapy were followed and the success or failure of the treatment was documented. Endosonography of the anal canal allows an exact staging of a primary anal carcinoma and the follow-up in irradiated carcinomas. Besides digital palpation and proctoscopy with biopsy, endosonography complements the preoperative staging of anal carcinomas.
