    Notes: Summary The sensitivity of the radiofibrinogen test was investigated to determine the accuracy of the test in diagnosis of venographically proven venous thrombosis in 70 heparinized patients.125J-fibrinogen was administered between 2 h and 4 days (mean: 1.5 days) after initiating heparin therapy. There were two criteria for a positive test: (a) if the difference between the counts for adjacent points on the same leg or equivalent sites on opposite legs was at least 15%; and/or (b) if there were three adjacent points each with counts 〉5% that of the same three points on the other leg. The fibrinogen uptake test was positive at the first examination in 67 of 70 patients, giving a sensitivity of 96%. The respective frequencies of truly abnormal results for the 3×5% and the 1×15% criteria were 94% and 71%. As far as localization and extension of thrombosis were concerned, the fibrinogen uptake test agreed with phlebography in 73% of the cases, when the counts in the groin and the upper third of the thigh were ignored. The125J-fibrinogen uptake test is an accurate method for detecting established deep leg vein thrombosis even in anticoagulated patients.

    Hypothermia in Hodgkin's disease after exploratory laparotomy (1988)

    Notes: Summary Hypothermia is a rare complication of unknown origin in Hodgkin's disease which has been reported after the administration of antineoplastic agents, chlorpromazine and paracetamol. We report a highly febrile patient with stage IV-B Hodgkin's disease of mixed cellularity type who underwent exploratory laparotomy. Because of suspected septic shock high-dose prednisolone was given during surgery. Postoperatively the patient's body temperature fell progressively to 32.9° C and remained at less then 35.5° C for the following 5 days. There seems to be some functional disorder of thermoregulation in Hodgkin's disease. Physical factors during surgery or certain drugs, especially cytotoxics, corticosteroids, anesthetics or antipyretics may lead to prolonged hypothermia.
