From 1974 to 1980 77 patients underwent thrombectomy for thrombosis of their iliac or leg veins. 45 patients became symptom-free. The mean age of the patients (mostly females) came up to 43 years, the oldest was 82, the youngest 13 years of age. Following these operations in 20 cases a postthrombectomy-syndrome developed. Only in one case an amputation due to venous gangrene had to be performed. In 28 cases a protective a-v-shunt was installed. 15 times a recurrent thrombosis occurred. 5 of these patients could be reoperated successfully.

Background: Ulcerative colitis patients who undergo ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) without mucosectomy may develop inflammation of the rectal cuff (cuffitis). Treatment of cuffitis typically includes mesalamine suppositories or corticosteroids, but refractory cuffitis may necessitate advanced therapies or procedural interventions. This review aims to summarize the existing literature regarding treatments options for cuffitis.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene. Patients with MEN1 have a high risk for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with a penetrance of nearly 100%, pituitary adenomas (PitAd) in 40% of patients, and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) of the pancreas (40% of patients), duodenum, lung, and thymus. Increased MEN1-related mortality is mainly related to duodenal-pancreatic and thymic NEN.
