Glycolytic activity in the muscle of heavily-feeding trap-caught cod (Gadus morhua) during the struggle involved in catching, and the subsequent post-mortem changes during holding in ice and at ambient temperatures were investigated. Struggling of the fish in the trap and during boating was sufficient to cause a partial depletion of the muscle energy reserves, as indicated by lactate production and nucleotide dephosphorylation and deamination. One cod from the trap, boated and killed without apparent struggling, had a high initial glycogen content of 550 mg/100 g. During subsequent storage of the brailed fish in air or ice the glycolytic processes, including nucleotide degradation, continued, although during the early post-mortem period the rate of lactate production greatly exceeded that of glycogen depletion. Little change in concentration of the metabolites occurred on freezing and storage at −26 °C for 4–6 weeks. In contrast, trawled offshore cod and haddock, regardless of ante-mortem treatment, contained little or no glycogen; almost complete dephosphorylation and deamination of the nucleotide compounds had occurred during the struggle involved in catching. Therefore, at the time of boating, the energy reserves in the trawled fish have been exhausted or nearly so.

The deleterious effect of post mortem degeneration results in a progressive loss of ultrastructural detail. This had led to reluctance (if not refusal) to examine autopsy material by means of transmission electron microscopy. Nevertheless, Johannesen has drawn attention to the fact that a sufficient amount of significant features may be preserved in order to enable the establishment of a definitive diagnosis, even on “graveyard” tissue.Routine histopathology of the autopsy organs of a woman of 78 showed the presence of a well circumscribed adenoma in the anterior lobe of the pituitary. The lesion came into close apposition to the pars intermedia. Its architecture was more compact and less vascular than that of the anterior lobe. However, there was some grouping of the cells in relation to blood vessels. The cells tended to be smaller, with a higher nucleocytoplasmic ratio. The cytoplasm showed a paucity of granules. In some of the cells, it was eosinophilic.

Die Geschichte des sackförmigen oder fusiformen Aneurysmas reicht in die Zeit der alten Ägypter, Byzantiner und Griechen zurück. Vesal 1557 und Harvey 1628 führten den Begriff in die moderne Medizin ein, indem sie bei je einem Patienten einen pulsierenden Tumor intra vitam feststellten und post mortem verifizierten. Weitere Eckpfeiler bildeten die Monographien von Lancisi und Scarpa im 18. bzw. beginnenden 19. Jahrhundert. Die erste wirksame Therapie bestand in der Kompression des Aneurysmasacks von außen, die zweite in der Arterienligatur, der John Hunter 1785 zum Durchbruch verhalf. Endoaneurysmoraphie (Matas) und Umhüllung mit Folien wurden breit angewendet, bevor Ultraschalldiagnostik und Bypass-Chirurgie Routineverfahren wurden und die Prognose dramatisch verbesserten. Die diagnostischen und therapeutischen Probleme in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts werden anhand von zwei prominenten Patienten dargestellt, Albert Einstein und Thomas Mann, die beide im Jahr 1955 an einer Aneurysmaruptur verstarben.
