    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 7 Oligodendrogliome, davon 2 mit uniformem Zell-Typ, 4 mit Zell- oder Gewebs-Unregelmäßigkeit, 1 mit glioblastomatösen Veränderungen wurden elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Die Tumorzellen zeigten 2 Haupttypen mit morphologischen Übergängen zwischen beiden auf. Die Hauptformen wurden als Typ 1 (undifferenziert) und 2 (differenziert) definiert, gestützt auf die Anzahl anaplastischer Zellen im jeweiligen Tumor und auf die Beobachtung nicht-neoplastischer Oligodendrocyten nach Mori and Leblond (21). Die meisten Tumorzellen aller Fälle wiesen ähnliche licht- und elektronenmikroskopische Charakteristika auf, einschließlich der Zell-Anordnung und ihrer Tendenz, zytoplasmatische Fortätze zu bilden. Diese Befunde waren auch in den glioblastomähnlichen Tumoren zu erkennen und bestätigen damit deren Oligodendrogliom-Komponente. Außerdem fand man regelmäßig in allen Tumoren eine Zunahme der Größe und Zahl der Mitochondrien, reichlich intrazytoplasmatische Strukturen und Mikrotubuli. Auch Zellen mit zytoplasmatischen Filamenten waren vorhanden, die als reaktive Astrocyten oder als oligodendrogliale Tumorzellen angesehen wurden. Daher scheinen weder zytoplasmatische Filamente noch Mikrotubuli ein spezifisches morphologisches Kriterium für Oligodendroglia oder Astrocyten zu sein. Das Überwiegen einer dieser beiden Strukturen erlaubt jedoch eine zytogenetische Zuordnung. Die zytologischen Charakteristika sind zwar keine spezifischen morphologischen Kriterien; die Feststellung ihrer Anwesenheit gibt jedoch wichtige diagnostische Informationen.
    Notes: Summary Seven Oligodendrogliomas (2 with uniform cell type, 4 with cellular or tissue variability, and 1 with glioblastomatous changes) were examined ultrastructurally. The tumor cells were of two principal types with morphologic transitions between the two main types. The two principal cell types were identified as type 1 (undifferentiated) and type 2 (differentiated) on the basis of the number of anaplastic cells in an individual tumor and on the observations of Mori and Leblond (21) on non-neoplastic oligodendrocytes. Most of the tumor cells in all tumors exhibited similar histologic and ultrastructural characteristics including their arrangement and their tendency to form cytoplasmic processes which sometimes formed short stacks. These features were also recognizable in the glioblastomatous example and confirmed the presence of an oligodendroglial component. In addition to these characteristics, an increase in size and number of mitochondria, abundant intracytoplasmic structures, microtubules were regularly present in virtually all tumor cells. Cells rich in cytoplasmic filaments were present. These were identified as reactive astrocytes or as oligodendroglial tumor cells. Thus neither cytoplasmic filaments nor microtubules appear to be specific morphological markers for oligodendroglia or astrocytes; only the predominance of one of these structures permits cytogenetic identifications. The cytologic characteristics are not specific morphologic markers; however, recognition of their presence provides important diagnostic information.

    Notes: Summary The effect has been studied of intravenously administered glycerol on paracellular and cellular transport of macromolecular HRP tracer in the lateral cochlear wall. The findings indicate osmotically induced diffusion phenomena by the opening of shunt pathways through junctional complexes in the stria vascularis. Vesicular transport is accelerated, direction of transport however is not affected by the changed osmolality.

    Notes: Summary A case of esthesioneuroblastoma, the pathological diagnosis of which almost always causes great difficulties, was investigated ultrastructurally, biochemically, and immunohistologically, using antibodies against the five known types of intermediate filaments [keratin, vimentin, desmin, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurofilaments]. The tumour cells did not react with antibodies against any of the five intermediate filament proteins. Ultrastructural investigations showed dense cored secretory granules in the cytoplasm and cell processes. Thus, immunohistology offers by “exclusion” a differential diagnosis to avoid often misdiagnosed tumours (undifferentiated carcinomas, embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas, and malignant lymphomas), since carcinomas react with antikeratin, embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas with antibodies to desmin and malignant lymphomas show immunofluorescence with antibodies to vimentin. The biological behaviour (age distribution, tendency to metastasize), the normal values of biochemical parameters, homovanillic acid and vanilmandelic acid (HVA, VMA), and the absence of neurofilaments distinguish this type of tumour from the peripheral sympathetic neuroblastoma.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The endochondral layer of labyrinthine bone of dog (Canis f. intermedius Woldrich) is examined by means of light and transmission electron microscopy. The osteocytes of the fine-fibred, alamellar “embryonic skein bone” (Meyer 1927) are surrounded by a fibre-less matrix. They correspond to osteocytes in long bones. Some of them are producing microfibrils according to formation of preosseous tissue which is called “intraosseous osteogenesis” (Knese 1970). Others are characterized by signs of micropetrosis or indicate osteocytic osteolysis. In the perivascular mesenchym of some vessels giant cells are visible which according to their ultrastructural characteristics are identified as osteoclasts. The occurrence of an embryonic type of bone in endochondral layer of otic capsule throughout life is discussed considering oxygenation via perivascular canalizition as well as biomechanical aspects.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Unseres Wissens ist dies die erste transmissionselektronenmikroskopische Untersuchung des normalen Labyrinthknochens. Hier wird die enchondrale Schicht beim Hund (Canis f. intermedius Woldrich) betrachtet, da menschliche Felsenbeine sich aufgrund postmortaler Veränderungen nicht für ultrastrukturelle Studien eignen. Im „zeitlebens embryonalen Strähnenknochen“ (Meyer 1927) sieht man Zellen, die in einem fibrillenfreien, perizellulären Hof unterschiedlicher Ausdehnung liegen. Diese entsprechen den Osteozyten in anderen Knochen. Einige dieser Zellen bilden Mikrofibrillen und sind zu einer „intraossären Osteogenese“ (Knese 1970) fähig. Andere Zellen bieten das Bild einer osteozytären Osteolyse. Auch kommt eine Mikropetrosis in nicht kanalisierten, perivaskulären Regionen vor. Im perivaskulären Mesenchym erkennt man vereinzelt Riesenzellen, die aufgrund ihrer Ultrastruktur als Osteoklasten zu bezeichnen sind. Das lebenslange Vorkommen des embryonalen Strähnenknochens in der Labyrinthkapsel wird unter Berücksichtigung biomechanischer Gesichtspunkte diskutiert. Dabei wird auch auf die perivaskuläre Kanalisierung des Strähnenknochens eingegangen.

    Notes: Summary In the course of studying the plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone responses to synthetic corticotropin releasing factor (CRF), we noted some disparity in the responses. A higher dose (20 μg compared with 5 μg per rat i.a.) produced an equal plasma ACTH but greater plasma corticosterone response in adult male rats. Thus, we examined the possibility that CRF increases adrenocortical responsiveness to ACTH. CRF significantly (p〈0.0005) increased the plasma corticosterone response to ACTH in rats pretreated with dexamethasone. Thus, synthetic CRF increases corticosterone secretion in rats not only by stimulating ACTH secretion, but also by increasing the adrenocortical responsiveness to ACTH.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über zwei Fälle von Lhermitte-Duclos'scher Erkrankung bzw. diffuser Hypertrophie des Kleinhirns berichtet. Histopathologisch handelt es sich dabei um umschriebene Dysmorphien des Kleinhirns, die so charakteristisch sind, daß sie bei chirurgischer Exploration vom bloßen Auge erkannt werden können. Die vergröberten, hypertrophen Kleinhirnläppchen heben sich zudem durch eine unterschiedliche Färbung vom normalen Kleinhirn ab (Fig. 1). An Stelle der Körnerschicht gibt es dicht beieinanderliegende, dysplastische Ganglienzellen verschiedenen Typs (Fig. 3), die myelinisierte Axone (Fig. 7) in die dadurch stark myelinisierte Molekularschicht schicken. Die Purkinjezellschicht fehlt, die Marklamellen sind stark verschmälert. Die Läsion wird als Hamartom aufgefaßt; klinisch kann sie als Raumforderung der hinteren Schädelgrube in Erscheinung treten. Die Mehrzahl der Patienten mit diffuser Kleinhirnhypertrophie haben zusätzlich andere gehäuft vorkommende Läsionen wie Megalencephalie, Schädelund Skelettanomalien, benigne und maligne extracerebrale Tumoren u. a. m. Bei dem ersten Fall handelt es sich um einen 39jährigen Mann, der neben der diffusen Kleinhirnhypertrophie ein megalencephales Gehirn (2320 g) hatte, und an einem metastasierenden Coloncarcinom ad exitum gekommen ist. Im Alter von 34 Jahren ist eine 540 g schwere Struma entfernt worden. Die Ganglienzellnatur der dysplastischen Zellen der Körnerschicht ließ sich anhand des Nachweises von Synapsen (Fig. 6) und großen Nisslschollen (Fig. 5) elektronenmikroskopisch beweisen. Bei dem zweiten Fall handelt es sich um eine 74jährige Frau, deren Kleinhirnläsion — wie im ersten Fall — klinisch nicht in Erscheinung getreten ist. Die Aetiopathologie ist nicht bekannt. Die organoide Struktur der cerebellären Läsion, die häufige Vergesellschaftung mit Megalencephalie und anderen Mißbildungen, sowie das Vorkommen von familiären Fällen macht es wahrscheinlich, daß es sich dabei um eine Entwicklungsstörung handelt. Die Lhermitte-Duclos'sche Erkrankung ist selten. Meines Wissens sind zur Zeit insgesamt 42 Fälle bekannt geworden.
    Notes: Summary Two cases of Lhermitte-Duclos disease or diffuse hypertrophy of the cerebellum are presented. This brings the total number of such cases reported in the literature to 42. Pathologically the disease is characterized by a circumscribed cerebellar lesion consisting of thickening of the cortex with closely packed dysplastic ganglion cells in the granular layer and with large myelinated axons in the molecular layer. Purkinje cells are missing and the central white matter is greatly reduced. The first patient, a man 39 years of age, had, in association to the cerebellar lesion, a megalencephalic brain (2320 g). He had suffered from epilepsy since he was 24-years-old and died with metastasizing colon carcinoma. An electron microscopic study of the cerebellar lesion disclosed perikarya containing large amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum, cell processes filled with coated and dense core vesicles. In addition, there were numerous enlarged myelinated axons in the molecular layer. The second patient, a woman 74 years of age, had a small area of diffuse hypertrophy of the left cerebellar hemisphere measuring one centimeter in diameter. Specific symptoms were very scant in the first case and absent in the second one indicating a very slow evolution — if any — of the disease process. The etiology and pathogenesis remain unknown. However, the organoid structure of the lesion, the frequent association of megalencephaly and other congenital abnormalities, and the occurrence of familiar cases would favor the disease being basically a developmental disorder.

    Notes: Summary Receptor assay results were compared with the ultrastructure of 127 breast cancers (112 primary tumors, six recurrent lesions, nine metastases). Tumors were considered to be receptor positive if the receptor levels were ⩾ 15 fmol/mg of soluble tissue protein. Most breast cancer had heterogenous cells with different grades of ultrastructural differentiation. A prevalence of well-differentiated cancer cells and an abundance of intracytoplasmic vacuoles had a significant correlation with a positive estrogen receptor status. The correlation was better than between malignancy grades and receptor content. The type of breast cancer and the menopausal status bore no relation to receptor content. Progesterone receptors were found in well-differentiated tumors of low malignancy.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A bilateral salpingectomy was performed at the time of vaginal hysterectomy in a pregnant patient sterilized 20 months earlier by application of Bleier clips to the fallopian tubes. Clip application to the left tube had been incomplete. Undisturbed tissue (left tube) and clipped tissue (right tube) were examined and compared by light and scanning electron microscopy. The segment of tube fully grasped by the clip had a completely detached lining epithelium with coarse and flattened mucosa, a loose stroma, and disorganized muscular bundles. The left tubal mucosa was normal, whereas the right tube was stenosed at the site of clip placement, with rigid walls and a 0.175 mm luminal diameter. With progressively greater stenosis toward the clip site, mucosal destruction increased. Polypoidal mucosal folds were seen, as well as fibrous adhesions between mucosal folds. These observations indicate that tissue damage is extensive enough after clip application to require excision of the damaged segment of tube and microsurgical re-anastomosis for reversal of sterilization.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Das Untersuchungsgut, über welches hier eingehend berichtet wird, stammt von einer 37jährigen Schwangeren (8. Woche), bei welcher 20 Monate zuvor eine Sterilisation mit Bleier-Clips versucht worden war. Es ergab sich eine Indikation zur Hysterektomie mit bilateraler Salpingektomie, was uns erlaubte, die gewebliche Reaktion einer Tube, an der ein Bleier-Clip korrekt saß, mit der an der kontralateralen Tube, über welche die Schwangerschaft eingetreten war, zu vergleichen. Die Präparate wurden rasterelektronenmikroskopisch und anschließend an identischen Stellen desselben Blocks lichtmikroskopisch untersucht („post-scanning histology“). In der voll gefaßten rechten Tube war das luminale Epithel streckenweise von der Unterlage abgehoben, das Faltenrelief der Mucosa distal und proximal der Clipmarke vergröbert oder abgeflacht, das subepitheliale Bindegewebe aufgelockert und die Bündel der Muscularis auseinandergedrängt. Die nur partiell mitgefaßte und daher noch ausreichend durchgängige linke Tube war zwar stenosiert, jedoch abgesehen von Schwangerschaftszeichen ohne markante Veränderung des Epithels. In der durch der korrekt sitzenden Clip verschlossenen rechten Tube verengte sich die Stenose der Clipmarke trichterförmig von proximal wie von distal, ein solider Epithelstrang war lichtmikroskopisch jedoch durchgehend nachzuweisen. Schleimhautmikropolypen und narbige Überbrückungen des Faltenreliefs in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft des korrekt sitzenden Clips veranschaulichen, ebenso wie die narbigen Veränderungen der Tubenwand, daß eine funktionsfähige Wiederherstellung der Tubenkontinenz nach Entfernung eines zur temporären Sterilisierung applizierten Bleier-Clip kaum anders als durch eine mikrochirurgische Reanastomosierung nach Resektion der narbigen Stenose erwartet werden kann.

    Notes: Summary Ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors are rare, most of them being endocrinologically active and causing virilization. Their histogenesis and nomenclature are still under discussion. Six such tumors were identified in the Laboratory for Histopathology of the University Women's Hospital, Zürich. The clinical data as well as the macroscopic, microscopic and ultrastructural features of these tumors are analysed and discussed. In an attempt to clarify their histogenesis, the ultrastructural features of these tumors have been compared with those of two granulosa cell tumors as well as with those of a testis in a patient with testicular feminization. Our own results and a study of published data suggest that Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors arise from ovarian stroma. Because of their obvious morphological similarities to testicular structures they should be termed “gonadal stromal tumors of android type”.
