    Abstract We present a rare case of traumatic bilateral asymmetric hip dislocation with pelvic fractures and a traumatic diaphragmatic hernia. A 53-year-old machinist was transferred to our emergency department with the suspicion of a bilateral hip dislocation after he was trapped between an elevator and the roof. Immediate closed reduction of the hips was not performed because of the expected risk of increasing hemodynamic instability with muscular relaxation. An emergent full-body computed tomography (CT) scan was made to assess injuries with need for further operative treatment. Thus, closed reduction of both hips was finally performed in the OR directly before the laparotomy for the diaphragmatic repair and the osteosynthesis of the anterior pelvic ring. A 12-month follow-up showed good general health condition with asymptomatic situation of the hip joints and the abdomen. The diagnostic work-up of patients with severe trauma is still debated, a randomized controlled trial showed no reduction of the in-hospital mortality with immediate full-body CT scan compared to a conventional radiological work-up. Traumatic hip dislocations (THDs) are always due to high-energy trauma and additional injuries are frequent. To attempt a closed reduction of THD, under general anesthesia can be life-threatening with unrecognized associated injuries. Therefore, THD can serve as selection criteria for immediate full-body CT scan to facilitate diagnosis and treatment of associated injuries sustained by the patient.

    Abstract Objective: During surgery for colon carcinoma, tumour cells may spread into the blood and may lead to the development of distant metastases. The most frequent sites of metastases are the liver and lungs. A new therapeutic approach is required to prevent tumour implantation of freely circulating tumour cells during and after surgery and to treat established metastases. The aim of this prospective study was to observe the influence of long-term intravenous taurolidine on the development of lung metastases after intravenous injection of colon adenocarcinoma cells.
    Methods: Tumour cells (DHD/K12/TRb colon adenocarcinoma cell line, 1 x 10(6) cells) were injected into the right vena jugularis interna of BDIX rats. The animals (n=13) were randomised into three groups: group 1: tumour cell implantation without taurolidine application (control group); group 2: tumour cell implantation and simultaneous start of the taurolidine injection through osmotic pump, removal of the osmotic pump on day 7; group 3: tumour cell implantation on day 0 and start of the taurolidine injection through osmotic pump on day 14.
    Results: In the taurolidine groups, the number and size of lung metastases were significantly lower compared to the control group (p=0.018; p=0.018 and p=0.036; p=0.018). Although the results of the intravenous long-term therapy with taurolidine in group 2 did not reach statistical significance in comparison with the results of group 3, a positive trend was revealed: The mean number of metastases in group 2 was 18.2 versus 28.2 in group 3.
    Conclusions: The application of taurolidine tends to prevent the development of lung metastases. Furthermore, taurolidine seems to reduce established lung metastases in this in vivo model. Taurolidine may offer additional therapeutic options in patients with colon adenocarcinoma.

    Abstract Pharmacological modulation of cannabinoid type 2 receptor (CB₂R) holds promise for the treatment of numerous conditions, including inflammatory diseases, autoimmune disorders, pain, and cancer. Despite the significance of this receptor, researchers lack reliable tools to address questions concerning the expression and complex mechanism of CB₂R signaling, especially in cell-type and tissue-dependent contexts. Herein, we report for the first time a versatile ligand platform for the modular design of a collection of highly specific CB₂R fluorescent probes, used successfully across applications, species, and cell types. These include flow cytometry of endogenously expressing cells, real-time confocal microscopy of mouse splenocytes and human macrophages, as well as FRET-based kinetic and equilibrium binding assays. High CB₂R specificity was demonstrated by competition experiments in living cells expressing CB₂R at native levels. The probes were effectively applied to FACS analysis of microglial cells derived from a mouse model relevant to Alzheimer’s disease.
