    Notes: Summary An immunohistochemical analysis using antibodies to cytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen, alpha-1-antitrypsin, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin and factor XIIIa was performed in four cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma and five cases of sarcomatoid carcinoma in the urinary tract. All cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma showed positive staining for factor XIIIa, alpha-1-antitrypsin and alpha-1-antichymotrypsin. No case was positive for factor XIIIa, but one case with sarcomatoid carcinoma stained positive for alpha-1-antitrypsin and alpha-1-antichymotrypsin. All cases showed positive staining for cytokeratin and 4 cases with sarcomatoid carcinoma were positive for epithelial membrane antigen, but no cases with malignant fibrous histiocytoma were positive. Immunohistochemical analysis would thus help to distinguish malignant fibrous histiocytoma from sarcomatoid carcinoma of the urinary tract.

    Notes: Abstract Sixteen patients with symptomatic dural caroticocavernous fistulae were treated by transvenous embolization, via the jugular vein and inferior petrosal sinus. The fistula was occuladed by thrombogenic coils. Complete resolution of symptoms and signs was achieved in 14 patients, and complete angiographic resolution was also obtained in 14 patients. Failures to achieve angiographic cure were attributed to failure to reach the fistula within the cavernous sinus precisely. Factors which make placement of the catheter at the fistula difficult are trabeculae within the cavernous sinus, a specific configuration of the superior ophthalmic vein and venous thrombosis. To improve the efficacy of tranvenous embolization, every possible venous route to the cavernous sinus therefore should be tried, to facilitate reaching the fistula and the possibility of transvenous embolization should not be thwarted by venous thrombosis.
