Erkrankungen der Kieferhöhle, ihre Diagnostik und Therapie werden sowohl von Hals-, Nasen-, Ohrenärzten als auch von Fachärzten für Zahn-, Mund- und Kieferheilkunde, und hier wieder besonders von seiten der Kiefer- und Gesichts­ chirurgen, als wesentlicher Teil des jeweiligen Fachgebietes angesehen. Die zentrale Stellung des Sinus maxillaris mit seinen engen Beziehungen sowohl zur Nasenhöhle als auch zum Kiefer und den Zähnen rechtfertigt und verlangt das Interesse beider Fachdisziplinen für diese Region. Ihre Darstellung in entsprechenden fachbe­ zogenen Lehrbüchern ist meist recht einseitig. Außerdem kam es im Lauf der letzten Jahre durch Fortschritte der Diagnostik und durch Änderung des chirurgischen Therapiekonzeptes entzündlicher Kieferhöhlenerkrankungen zu einem teilweisen Wandel in der Wertung und Behandlung von Kieferhöhlenaffektionen. Dies waren naheliegende Gründe, als Hauptthema der 1. Tagung der Arbeitsgemeinschaft für zahnärztliche Chirurgie und Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie der ÖGZMK in Fuschl die "Erkrankungen der Kieferhöhle" zu wählen. Die Auswahl der Vorträge erfolgte derart, daß der Leser des nun vorliegenden Buches einen Überblick über die Physiologie, Pathologie, Diagnostik, Traumatologie, Onkologie-und Therapie von Entzündungen sowie die ·dentoalveoläre Chirurgie im Kieferhöhlenbereich erhält. Die entsprechenden Übersichtsartikel werden dabei jeweils durch Ergebnisse spezifischer wissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen ergänzt. Obwohl auch die rhinolo­ gischen Aspekte eingehend besprochen werden, stehen insgesamt jedoch die zahnärztlich-chirurgische und kieferchirurgische Betrachtungsweise und deren Interessensschwerpunkte im Vordergrund. Den Vortragenden sei für die Überlassung der Manuskripte und ihreMitarbeit gedankt. Besonderer Dank gebührt dem Springer-Verlag Wien für die ausgezeicrnete Ausstattung dieses Buches.

Thanks to the efforts of the lecturers, who did a splendid job in presenting the lectures and in preparing their lecture notes, a comprehensive insight into the hadronic interaction between nucleons and anti-nucleons was achieved.

Venous valves rank among the smallest and most delicate organs of the human and animal bodies - so why devote an entire book to them? In the pathogenesis of a number of widespread diseases, such as varicose veins or the post-thrombotic syndrome, venous valves are involved as the underlying cause or at least a factor contributory to the symptoms.

Today, laser represents a new "discipline", as it offers a new way of performing all basic maneuvers (dissection, demolition, hemostasis, vessel sutures). Laser scalpel is splitting the initial laser surgery into NO TOUCH and TOUCH surgery with laser.

With the concomitant advances in computer technology, 3-dimensional reconstruction of deep seated lesions in stereotactic space is possible and the way is open for combined surgery with stereotactic precision and computer guided open resection.

Nev ertheless, the vascular surgical emergency, one of the greatest challenges in surgical management, may occur suddenly and at a time and place remote from the highly qualified vascular surgeon or a specialized center where complex vascular treatment is routine.

The discovery in the late 1940's that sickle cell anemia is a "molecular disease" of hemoglobin was the crucial advance that gave birth to the scientific discipline of human molecular genetics.

More than ten years have elapsed since the publication of a compre hensive review on the quassinoids, the bitter principles of the Simaroubaceae family (80). Quassinoid General Features In reviewing the essential features of the quassinoids, the new structural types discovered during the last decade will be emphasised.

This volume contains the written versions of lectures held at the "23. Thanks to the efforts of the lecturers it was possible to take this development into account and show relations to areas where stochastic methods have been used for a long time.

The development of various swarm techniques, such as the temperature variable selected ion flow tube or the selected ion flow drift tube, has provided the prerequisite for detailed investigations into ion molecule reactions both in binary and three body collisions, and the mechanisms of many reactions are now understood quite satisfactorily.

It is worthwhile re membering that the first examples of unstable genomes were described for maize before DNA was known to be the genetic material. Exchanges of genetic material have been demonstrated within organelle DNA, between organelle DNAs or between organelle and nuclear DNAs.

This book is a collection of critical reviews about a diverse group of virus families with two features in common: the stable repository of genetic information in each virus is RNA, and each virus modifies and appropriates a particular patch of the eukaryotic cell membrane system to complete its structure.

The invention of semiconductor devices is a fairly recent one, considering classical time scales in human life. Coincident with the growth in semiconductor device development, the literature concerning semiconductor device and technology issues has literally exploded.

We in ophthalmology are fortunate to be able to measure quantitatively many aspects of ocular morphology and visual function. visual acuity, visual fields, color vision, etc.).

Some pathogens have developed very sophisticated mechanisms to parasitize plants, an excellent example for this being crown gall caused by a soil bac terium, Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

The title of this book may at first appear to be somewhat restrictive in its use of terminology. Alternative titles could have been Disorders of Speech Production, or Neurogenic Speech Disorders, but neither would have encapsulated the essence of the book.

After those bold steps, and for almost 40 years, research in laryngology and interest in laryngology continued, but at considerably and increasingly less intense levels, certainly so far as the otolaryngologist population was concerned.

In 1977 I wrote a grant proposal in which I applied to study developmental patterns in enzymatic methylation of DNA in eukaryotes. The great skepticism about the significance of DNA methylation is based in part on the evidence that it is absent or very little used in Drosophila, a favorite organism for genetic and developmental studies.
