T1 - “Rendezvous technique” for intraluminal vacuum therapy of anastomotic leakage of the jejunum JF - Surgical Case Reports N2 - Background Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most common and serious complications following visceral surgery. In recent years, endoluminal vacuum therapy has dramatically changed therapeutic options for AL, but its use has been limited to areas easily accessible by endoscope. Case presentation We describe the first use of endoluminal vacuum therapy in the small intestine employing a combined surgical and endoscopic “rendezvous technique” in which the surgeon assists the endoscopic placement of an endoluminal vacuum therapy sponge in the jejunum by means of a pullback string. This technique led to a completely closed AL after 27 days and 7 changes of the endosponge. Conclusion The combined surgical and endoscopic rendezvous technique can be useful in cases of otherwise difficult endosponge placement.

While all these entities are characterized by proliferation of highly atypical, anaplastic CD30+ T cells, the expression of T-cell specific antigens in the tumor cells is not consistently detectable. Design and Methods We evaluated biopsies from 19 patients with primary cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders, 38 with ALK- and 33 with ALK+ systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma. The biopsies were examined for the expression of T-cell receptoraβ/CD3 complex (CD3γ, δ, ε, ζ), transcription factors regulating T-cell receptor expression (ATF1, ATF2, TCF-1, TCF-1a/LEF-1, Ets1), and molecules of T-cell receptor-associated signaling cascades (Lck, ZAP-70, LAT, bcl-10, Carma1, NFATc1, c-Jun, c-Fos, Syk) using immunohistochemistry. Results In comparison to the pattern in 20 peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified, we detected a highly disturbed expression of the T-cell receptor/CD3 complex, TCF-1, TCF- 1a/LEF-1, Lck, ZAP-70, LAT, NFATc1, c-Jun, c-Fos and Syk in most of the systemic anaplastic large cell lymphomas. In addition, primary cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders showed such a similar expression pattern to that of systemic anaplastic large cell lymphomas, that none of the markers we investigated can reliably distinguish between these CD30+ T-cell lymphoproliferations. Conclusions Severely altered expression of the T-cell receptor/CD3 complex, T-cell receptor-associated transcription factors and signal transduction molecules is a common characteristic of systemic and cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferations, although the clinical behavior of these entities is very different. Since peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified retain the full expression program required for functioning T-cell receptor signaling, the differential expression of a subset of these markers might be of diagnostic utility in distinguishing peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified from the entire group of CD30+ lymphoproliferations.

A1 - Scheer, Ulrich T1 - Identification and definition of nucleolus-related fibrillar bodies in micronucleated cells N2 - Small nucleolus-related bodies which occur in the nUcleoplasm of " micronuclei" lacking nucleolar organizers have been studied by immunofluorescence microscopy. These bodies stained specifically with three different antibodies directed against proteins that are normally associated with the dense fibrillar component of functional nucleoli, but not with antibodies specific for certain proteins of the granular component or the fibrillar centers. Our data show that, in the absence of rRNA genes, the various constituent proteins characteristic of the dense fibrillar component spontaneously assemble into spherical entities but that the subsequent fusion of these bodies into larger structures is prevented in these micronuclei. The similarity between these nucleolus-related bodies of micronuclei and the prenucleolar bodies characteristic of early stages of nucleologenesis during mitotic telophase is discussed.

T1 - Proximal jejunal stoma as ultima ratio in case of traumatic distal duodenal perforation facilitating successful EndoVAC\(^{®}\) treatment: a case report JF - International Journal of Surgery Case Reports N2 - Introduction: During damage control surgery for blunt abdominal traumata simultaneous duodenal perforations can be missed making secondary sufficient surgical treatment challenging. Endoluminal vacuum (EndoVAC™) therapy has been shown to be a revolutionary option but has anatomical and technical limits. Presentation of the case: A 59-year old man with hemorrhagic shock due to rupture of the mesenteric root after blunt abdominal trauma received damage control treatment. Within a scheduled second-look, perforation of the posterior duodenal wall was identified. Due to local and systemic conditions, further surgical treatment was limited. Decision for endoscopic treatment was made but proved to be difficult due to the distal location. Finally, double-barreled jejunal stoma was created for transstomal EndoVAC™ treatment. Complete leakage healing was achieved and jejunostomy reversal followed subsequently. Discussion: During damage control surgery simultaneous bowel injuries can be missed leading to life-threatening complications with limited surgical options. EndoVAC™ treatment is an option for gastrointestinal perforations but has anatomical limitations that can be sufficiently shifted by a transstomal approach for intestinal leakage. Conclusion: In trauma related laparotomy complete mobilization of the duodenum is crucial. As ultima ratio, transstomal EndoVAC™ is a safe and feasible option and can be considered for similar cases.
