Morin staining is a specific method by which to detect aluminium in the brain. In cases of Alzheimer disease, aluminium was found to occur in neurons and glial cells, dense cores of senile plaques, primitive plaques, and intracortical congophilic vessels. Findings obtained are likely to suggest concomitant presence of aluminium and amyloid. Alumini...

Series of semi-thin sections were prepared of mature human placentas after immersion and perfusion fixation. Evidence was produced to the existence of syncytial bridges between neighbouring chorionic villi. Besides, syncytial knots and sprouts were present, as well as structures apparently similar to bridges which had resulted from peculiar cutting...

Optical light and electron microscopy were used in studies into two cases of infantile GM2-gangliosidosis. The results are reported in this paper. The correlation has been evident between histological and ultrastructural findings. Reliable delimitation between two different variants of infantile GM2-gangliosidosis was achieved through biochemical i...

Histogenetic classification was applied to 416 cases of human exocrine pancreas carcinoma. Fundamental importance was attributed, in that context, to duct-associated histogenesis. A distinction was, therefore, made between ductal and ductular pancreas carcinomas. Invasive ductal carcinomas were subdivided by three categories: highly stromatous clas...

Neurofibromatosis was recorded from 30 in 82,249 postmortem cases (0.036%) at the Medical Academy of Erfurt, Institute of Pathological Anatomy, between June 1, 1945 and December 31, 1986, among them 13 cases of classical peripheral neurofibromatosis generalisata Recklinghausen (NgR) and 17 with CNS involvement. These had been 10 males and 7 females...

The opening of the Prosector's Department at the Charité of Berlin and appointment of its first Prosector are reported in this paper. The scientific need for getting clinical postmortem investigations performed by full-fledged anatomists or for having them at least anatomically supervised and pressures resulting from Europe's first cholera outbreak...

Visiomanual morphometric analysis of peripheral nerve fibres has proved to be error-laden and inadequate. An automatic interactive programme was, therefore, developed for microscopic image analysis and feature extraction. Contours of myelin sheaths were properly identifiable, but an interactive programme component was found to be required to measur...

70 cases of acute dihydralazine-associated hepatitis with centrolobular or confluent necroses, registered in the files of the Berlin-Friedrichshain Institute of Pathology, between 1981 and 1985, were classified into 3 types of diagnostic probability for differential diagnosis versus virus hepatitis. Classification was conducted according to recomme...

Mucopolysaccharidoses are autosomal recessive or X-linked hereditary lysosomal storage diseases occurring to one in 10,000 to 16,000 births. The definitive diagnosis is based on the biochemical verification of the enzyme defect in cultured fibroblasts of amniotic fluid cells, in amniotic fluid, in chorionic biopsies and by determination of the urin...
