Encyclopedia In children, the combination of hypothyroidism (cretinism), weakness, and muscle hypertrophy is referred to as the Kocher-Debre-Semelaigne syndrome. The myopathy associated with Cushing's syndrome is probably related to glucocorticoid excess, and the clinical features are essentially the same as those of iatrogenic steroid myopathy. Weakness may occur in Nelson's syndrome, in which there is a high level of ACTH but no glucocorticoid excess. www.eamg-med.com /members/encyclopedia/25/25_8.shtml   (3753 words)

Theodor E. Kocher (1841-1917): Nobel Surgeon of the Last Century Kazi RA J Postgrad Med Kocher studied in Zurich, Berlin, London, Paris and Vienna, and was a student of Theodor Billroth (1829-1894) and Bernhard von Langenbeck (1810-1887). Kocher's other surgical contributions include a method for reducing dislocations of the shoulder and improvements in operations on the stomach, the lungs, the tongue, and cranial nerves, and for hernia. Kocher's methods were somewhat similar to those of Joseph Lister (1827-1912) and William Hallsted (1852-1922) in that he relied on absolute precision and care rather than speed and show, and in this was vindicated by his low mortality figures. www.jpgmonline.com /article.asp?issn=0022-3859;year=2003;volume=49;issue=4;spage=371;epage=372;aulast=Kazi   (982 words)
