    Notes: Summary Three cases are reported of lymphangiomyomatosis with pulmonary and abdominal manifestations. Two had a chylous pleura effusion, while the third presented a retroperitoneal manifestation, which was completely resectable. Antiestrogen therapy with tamoxifen was administered in all three cases. Two patients died of pulmonary progression after 4 months of therapy. The third is still alive, with stable disease for more than 6 years, and has been receiving tamoxifen for 66 months. These observations indicate that antiestrogen treatment may be as effective as oophorectomy when started at an early stage of the disease.

    Notes: Summary We report the case of a 25-year old female patient, who presented with intrapulmonary metastases of a Wilms' tumor nine and a half year after initial therapy of a stage I tumor with surgery, local radiation and combined chemotherapy. In general, relapses of Wilms' tumor occur within two year after nephrectomy. Reccurences after more than 7 years are very rare. A relapse of a Wilms' tumor in an adult patient after more than 9 years is not yet published. We treated our patient according to the therapeutic procedure, which is recommended by the National Wilms' Tumor Study as curative treatment of relapses in childhood: complete resection of pulmonary metastases, irradiation of the whole lunge and repeatingly combined chemotherapy with actinomycin D and vincristin. The patient is doing well without evidence of tumor 13 months after thoractomy. A short review of the literature is given.

    Postremissions-Behandlung der akuten Leukämie im Erwachsenenalter: allogene Knochenmarktransplantation oder Chemotherapie? (1988)

    Notes: Summary The impact of bone marrow transplantation and chemotherapy on remission duration and survival in acute leukemia is controversial. Most studies on either procedure deal with selected patients and lack randomized or concurrent controls; many exclude high-risk subgroups. There are only a few preliminary reports on the direct comparison between bone marrow transplantation and intensive chemotherapy. Considerable controversy remains as to whether patients with AML in first remission who have an HLA identical sibling should receive a bone marrow transplant at that time or whether the transplant should be delayed until relapse or second remission. In patients under the age of 25 years, results of bone marrow transplantation are considered to be equivalent or superior to those achieved with chemotherapy. Because of a high lethality rate few results suggest that survival of patients transplanted during first remission is not superior to that obtained by intensified chemotherapy; however, the relapse incidence is decreased. In recent years, results in adult ALL, treated with various intensified programs, have improved considerably and are nearly comparable to those obtained in childhood ALL. Therefore, allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is usually performed in standard risk patients during second remission and, if relapse occurs within the first three years. It is not clear at present whether ALL highrisk patients will benefit from bone marrow transplantation during first remission.

    Notes: Summary In a patient with acute lymphocytic leukaemia (pre-T ALL) and another patient with leukaemic generalization of B-cell lymphoma Auer bodies were found in a few immature cells. The diagnosis in both cases was based on clinical grounds, morphology, cytochemistry, and immunological marker analysis of the blasts. Auer bodies are known to be a marker of high significance for acute non-lymphocytic leukaemias. Therefore the findings described suggest mixed leukaemias with either T-cell or B-cell predominance. It provides further evidence for the existence of a common progenitor of myeloid and lymphoid cells.

    Notes: Summary In a multicenter analysis, the effect of low-dose cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) (10 mg/m2 q 12 h subcutaneously for a minimum of 15 days) has been assessed in 13 patients with acute leukemia (10 myeloid -AML-, 3 lymphocytic -ALL-) and 7 patients with dysmyelopoietic syndromes (DMPS), conditions classified as refractory anemia with an excess of blasts (RAEB). Seven patients suffering from acute leukemia and 1 with DMPS in blastic transformation displayed a leukocytosis of more than 10×109/1. Three out of 7 DMPS, 1 out of 10 AML achieved a complete remission, 1 out of 3 ALL-patients reached a partial remission twice. Seven patients showed a blast clearing in the bone marrow and peripheral blood, in another 7 instances examination of the bone marrow was not performed after therapy because of early death. The majority of patients were in their late phase of disease and refractory to conventional chemotherapy. Only 5 patients had no pretreatment at first presentation before low-dose Ara-C was initiated. At least for the DMPS-group, this therapeutic approach seems to be of some benefit.

    Notes: Summary A patient with acute myelomonocytic leukemia who experienced a spontaneous remission, is reported. He had precedent and concurrent bacterial infections as most of these cases described. Low peripheral WBC and myeloblasts, Auer-rod positive blasts, bone marrow eosinophilia with atypical eosinophils, and a partial deletion of chromosome 16 were favorable prognostic parameters. A brief review of the literature and possible explanations for the regulation of granulopoiesis are presented.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Hinblick auf eine Senkung der Frühtodesrate durch Infektionen wurde in einer vergleichenden Studie der Wert einer selektiven Darmdekontamination (SDD) bei der zytostatischen Behandlung von Patienten mit akuter Leukämie untersucht. Es wurden drei Gruppen gebildet: 1) SDD (Neomycin, Colistin, Nystatin) bei einfacher Umkehrisolation auf der Normalstation; 2) keine SDD, aber einfache Umkehrisolation auf der Normalstation; 3) strikte Isolation, gefilterte Luft, sterilisierte Nahrung plus SDD. Es fanden sich graduell zwischen den drei Gruppen signifikant weniger Infektionen mit Gramnegativen Keimen: Isolierstation plus SDD versus Normalstation plus SDD versus Normalstation ohne SDD. Die Frühtodesrate durch Infektionen war in der Gruppe mit SDD auf der Normalstation signifikant geringer als in der Gruppe ohne SDD, umgekehrt die Remissionsrate nach zytostatischer Behandlung signifikant höher. Die Dekontamination wurde gut vertragen.
    Notes: Summary A comparative study of infectious morbidity and mortality in neutropenic patients with acute leukemia receiving chemotherapy was undertaken to test the effects of a suppression of endogenous and ambient microorganisms. Patients were allocated to receive [1] oral antibiotics (neomycin, colistin, and nystatin) in conventional ward isolation; [2] no antimicrobial suppression but conventional ward isolation; [3] strict isolation, filtered air, sterilized food and oral antibiotics. Significantly fewer infections with Gram-negative bacilli were seen in patients with strict isolation plus endogenous microbial suppression versus patients receiving selective gut decontamination versus patients without nonabsorbable antibiotics in simple reverse isolation. The death rate from infection was significantly reduced in patients who received antibiotics for gut flora suppression in conventional ward isolation compared with the corresponding control group. In addition, a significant improvement of leukemic remission rate was seen in this group. The protocol for decontamination was well tolerated.

    Notes: Summary Eleven adults have been transplanted for various reasons between July 1979 and July 1982: 2 with aplastic anemia (AA), 1 with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), 8 with acute leukemia (AL). Four patients suffered from acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and four from acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL). Two of them were transplanted in relapse, 1 in a partial remission, and 5 in complete remission. All patients were in their late stage of disease. The PNH-patient had an identical twin, 8 patients had an HLA- and MLC compatible sib, 1 an unrelated donor, and 1 was transplanted from his father. Four patients are alive, 2 more than 3 years: 1 with AA and 1 with ALL who was transplanted in relapse. Six patients died of infectious complications (4 of interstitial pneumonia, 1 of a candidasepsis, 1 of acute toxoplasmosis). Patients living more than 3 weeks had a take. Acute graft-versus-host (GvH) disease did not present a major problem. All patients received methotrexate for GvH-prophylaxis, in three instances the marrow was additionally pre-incubated with anti-T-cell globulin.
