Factors influencing survival of reconstructions. Consensus report of Working Group 2

Abstract: In order to evaluate the level of evidence of factors influencing the survival of reconstructions, systematic reviews of the relevant literature were prepared by a group of rapporteurs. The review papers were circulated to the members of the group before the conference and formed the basis for group and panel discussions. Subsequently, modifications were added to the review papers, and suggestions for consensus statements concerning the following topics were prepared and again critically reviewed in the group and in the plenum: Impact of (i) periodontal disease on the survival of tooth-supported reconstructions, (ii) post-surgical factors as supportive therapy on the survival of implant supported reconstructions, (iii) technical and/or biological complications on the survival of different types of reconstructions, (iiii) material choice for reconstructions on the survival of single crowns and fixed dental prostheses.     

Das Jo-1-Syndrom und seine klinischen Manifestationen

Namensgebend für das Jo-1-Syndrom sind Autoantikörper gegen das Jo-1-Antigen, die bei diesem Krankheitsbild im Serum der betroffenen Patienten nachgewiesen werden. Der Name Jo-1 leitet sich von dem ersten Patienten (John P.) ab, bei dem diese Antikörper gefunden wurden. Dieser Patient litt an einer Polymyositis und fibrosierenden Alveolitis. Das Jo-1-Antigen ist identisch mit der Histidyl-Transfer-RNA-Synthetase im Zytosol. Das Jo-1-Syndrom gehört zu einer Familie von Autoimmunerkrankungen, die als Anti-Synthetase- Syndrome bezeichnet werden. Diese Syndrome haben gemeinsam, dass jeweils Autoantikörper gegen unterschiedliche Aminosäure-Transfer-RNASynthetasen nachweisbar sind. Klinisch handelt es sich beim Jo-1-Syndrom um eine Sonderform der Poly- bzw. Dermatomyositis von bisher ungeklärter Ätiologie. Neben einer Muskelbeteiligung kommt es charakteristischerweise zu einer interstitiellen Lungenbeteiligung, die auch prognostisch das Krankheitsbild bestimmt. Zusätzlich können klinisch eine Polyarthritis und weitere Symptome bestehen, die dem klinischen Bild anderer Kollagenosen ähneln. Ebenso wie die Polymyositis und Dermatomyositis kann sich das Jo-1-Syndrom in sog. Myositis-Overlap-Syndromen präsentieren. Zu dieser Diagnose führt ein Symptomenkomplex, der die klare Zuordnung zu einer einzelnen Erkrankung nicht möglich macht. Häufig werden in solchen Fällen U1-RNP-Antikörper nachgewiesen. Therapeutisch spricht das Jo-1-Syndrom auf die Gabe von Kortikosteroiden und—falls notwendig—Azathioprin, Methotrexat und Cyclophosphamid an. Eine Kurzbeschreibung von zwei klinischen Fällen stellt das Krankheitsbild anschaulich dar.     

Characterization of normal and infarcted rat myocardium using a combination of small-animal PET and clinical MRI.

The combination of small-animal PET and MRI data provides quantitative in vivo insights into cardiac pathophysiology, integrating information on biology and morphology. We sought to determine the feasibility of PET and MRI for the quantification of ischemic injury in the rat model. METHODS: Fourteen healthy male Wistar rats were studied with 18F-FDG PET and cine MRI. Myocardial viability was determined in a transmural myocardial infarction model in 12 additional rats, using 18F-FDG PET and delayed-enhancement MRI with gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid. All PET was acquired with a dedicated small-animal PET system. MRI was performed on a 1.5-T clinical tomograph with a dedicated small-animal electrocardiographic triggering device and a small surface coil. RESULTS: In normal rats, 18F-FDG uptake was homogeneous throughout the left ventricle. The lowest mean uptake of the 18F-FDG was found in the apical regions (79% +/- 6.0% of maximum) and the highest uptake was in the anterior wall (93% +/- 4.3 % of maximum). Myocardial infarct size as determined by histology correlated well with defects of glucose metabolism obtained with 18F-FDG PET (r = 0.89) and also with delayed-enhancement MRI (r = 0.91). Left ventricular ejection fraction in normal rats measured by cine MRI was 57% +/- 5.4% and decreased to 38% +/- 12.9% (P < 0.001) in the myocardial infarction model. CONCLUSION: Integrating information from small-animal PET and clinical MRI instrumentation allows for the quantitative assessment of cardiac function and infarct size in the rat model. The MRI measurements of scar can be complemented by metabolic imaging, addressing the extent and severity of ischemic injury and providing endpoints for therapeutic interventions.     

The frozen elephant trunk technique for the treatment of extensive thoracic aortic aneurysms: operative results and follow-up.

OBJECTIVE: The 'frozen' elephant trunk technique allows for single-stage repair of combined aortic arch and descending aortic aneurysms using a 'hybridprosthesis' with a stented and a non-stented end. This report summarizes the operative- and follow-up data (mean follow-up 14 months) with this new treatment. METHODS: Between 09/01 and 4/04, 22 patients (62+/-9 years; 9 female) with different aortic pathologies (15 aortic dissections, 7 aneurysms) were operated on after approval from the local institutional review board. The stented end of the hybridprosthesis was deployed in the descending aorta through the opened aortic arch during hypothermic circulatory arrest and selective antegrade cerebral perfusion. RESULTS: All patients survived the procedure but one patient died of acute hemorrhage due to rupture of the false lumen in the descending aorta on the second postoperative day. Two patients required reexploration of the chest for bleeding complications. In 2 of 4 patients who developed neurological dysfunction, symptoms resolved completely. In one of them, the descending aorta was perforated intraoperatively due to misplacement of the stented end of the hybridprosthesis. In all follow-up CT-scans thrombus formation in the descending aortic aneurysm excluded by the stented end of the hybridprosthesis has been observed. CONCLUSIONS: This procedure is performed through median sternotomy and combines the concepts of the elephant trunk operation and endovascular stenting of descending aortic aneurysms. Favourable intraoperative and postoperative results during follow-up with regard to thrombus formation around the stented descending aortic segment encourage us to evaluate all patients with thoracic aneurysms extending to proximal and distal of the left subclavian artery for this treatment.     

Transarticular invasion of iliopelvic sarcomas into the sacrum: Radiological analysis of 47 cases

Joint cartilage functions as a barrier against the extension of bone tumors. However, transarticular invasion by iliopelvic sarcomas across the sacroiliac (SI) joints into the sacrum sometimes occurs. We made a radiological analysis (CT and/or MRI) of 47 bone sarcomas which originated in the ilium and extended nearly to the SI joint. 8 of 17 chondrosarcomas and 3 of 30 other sarcomas (2 of 23 Ewing's sarcomas and 1 of 7 osteosarcomas) invaded the sacrum through the SI joint.     

Ewing's sarcoma of the femur: Prognosis in 69 patients treated by the CESS group

We reviewed the treatment outcome of 69 patients with Ewing's sarcoma of the femur. The patients received chemotherapy according to the CESS 81 (n 14), CESS 86 (n 43), and CESS 91P (n 12) protocols. The 10-year relapse-free survival rates were 36%, 65%, and 65% (p = 0.01). 68 patients received local treatment. The primary tumor was treated by surgery without radiotherapy in 28 patients; 1 developed a local recurrence and 7 metastases. 10 patients received radiotherapy alone; 4 developed metastases and 4 local recurrences and metastases. 30 cases had a combination of surgery and radiotherapy; 7 developed metastases and 1 a local recurrence and metastasis. The survival of patients after radiotherapy alone was worse than that of patients after surgery with/without radiotherapy (p = 0.005). Pathological fractures (n 16) did not influence the prognosis.
