[Results of percutaneous kidney cyst sclerosing]. / Ergebnisse der perkutanen Nierenzystenverödung.

The results of the percutaneous obliteration of the renal cysts in 68 renal cysts (6 cases of recidivation) are discussed. The use of an obliteration remedy is superior to the only submaximal depletion of cysts. The results after the sclerosation treatment with ethoxysclerol 2% were essentially better than after varicocid instillation. The sclerosation therapy may be performed only after a preliminary thorough angiographical clarification including renocystography. The excretion urograms are sufficient for the control examination.

[Quantitative angiographic studies for the differential diagnosis of early acute kidney failure of ischemic and rejection-damaged grafts]. / Quantitative angiographische Undersuchungen zur Differentialdiagnose des frühen akuten Nierenversagens ischämie- und rejektionsgeschädigter Transplantate.

On 22 auto- or homotransplanted kidneys of dogs a quantitative angiographic evaluation of the corticalis perfusion was carried out. For this purpose four special parameters were evaluated. With the help of the linear discriminance analysis we succeed in a sufficient secure separation between autografts impaired by ischaemia or shock on the one hand and homografts impaired by rejection on the other. It is referred to the prognostic significance of angiography in human graft kidneys with disturbed function.

[Planimetric measurement of kidney size in patients with stenosis of the renal artery (author's transl)]. / Planimetrische Nierengrössenbestimmungen bei Patienten mit Nierenarterienstenosen (prä- und postoperative Kontrolluntersuchungen).

Comparison of pre- and postoperative angiograms reveals no significant statistical difference concerning kidney size after successful reconstruction of the renal artery. This examination is based on planimetric data of 10 patients with haemodynamical important stenoses of the renal artery (including one patient with bilateral stenosis).

[Vascular changes in experimental renal ischemia and after renal homotransplantation (experimental angiographic study on animals)]. / Gefässveränderungen bei experimenteller Nierenischämie und nach Nierenhomotransplantation (Eine tierexperimentelle angiographische Studie).

Which consequences result from these experimental results from practice? In the acute angiography in postoperative functional distrubance after transplantation of a human kidney is at first probably always to be reckoned with a rejection process, though this immunological process by no means must be in the foreground of the causal connection of several pathogenetic factors. Therefore, in our opinion it would then be assumed an ischaemia-conditioned cell damage of the tubulus by a longer lasting prefinal circulatory depression or due to a not optimal preservation, when there is in the angiogramme a clear discrepancy to the severity of the postoperative functional distrubance, i.e. when angiographically exists only a slight cortical ischaemia in an otherwise good arterial filling picture and a widely normal capillary filling phase.

[Diagnosis of a nonparasitic splenic cyst]. / Zur Diagnostik einer nichtparasitären Milzzyste.

It is reported on a case of the infrequent non-parasitic cyst of the spleen. Here the difficulties of the diagnostics due to the poorness of clinical and laboratory-chemical symptoms are emphasized. After the radiological exclusion of the belonging of the spacial demand to the gastrointestinal canal and to the uropoietic system it is recommended to strive for the angiographical clarification and, when a cyst of the spleen is to be proven, for the splenectomy.
