Abstract
The aim of the current study was to test the technical and clinical feasibility of a robotic system and investigate its potential in the surgical repair of perforated Schneiderian membranes using an ex-vivo porcine model. Eight pig heads were operated conventionally via a surgical loop and eight pig heads with the surgical robot "Symani® Surgical System" (Medical Microinstruments, Inc., Pisa, Italy). On each specimen, the Schneiderian membrane was incised over a length of 0.7 mm resembling a perforation. Operation time, the maximum sinusoidal pressure, the course of the pressure and the filling volume were measured. Additionally, adaptation of the wound edges has been detected via scanning electron microscopy. There were no significant differences for the pressure maximum (p = 0.528), for the time until the pressure maximum was reached (p = 0.528), or for the maximum filling volume (p = 0.674). The time needed for the suturing of the membrane via robotic surgery was significantly longer (p < 0.001). However, the scanning electron microscope revealed a better adaptation of the wound edges with robotic surgery. The technical feasibility of robot-assisted suturing of Schneiderian membrane laceration using the robotic system has been confirmed for the first time. No differences considering the pressure resistance compared to the conventional repair could be observed, but advantages in wound adaptation could be found with an electron microscope. Regarding the material and training costs and limited indications spectrum, robotic surgery systems still might not present financially feasible options in the daily dental practice yet.

Abstract
A number of genes of the developmental gene hierarchy in Drosophila encode transcription factors containing Cys2His2 zinc finger domains as DNA-binding motifs. To learn more about the evolution of these genes, it is necessary to clone the homologs, or more correctly the orthologs, from different species. Using PCR, we were able to obtain apparently orthologous fragments of hunchback (hb), Krüppel (Kr), and snail (sna) from a variety of arthropods and partly also from other animal phyla. Sequence alignments of these fragments show that the amino acid differences can normally not be correlated with the evolutionary distances of the respective species. This is due to an apparent saturation of potential replacements within the finger domains, which is also evident from the frequent occurrence of convergent replacements. Another recurrent feature of these alignments is that those amino acids that are directly involved in determining the DNA-binding specificity of the fingers are most conserved. Using in vitro bandshift experiments we can indeed show that the binding specificity of a hunchback finger fragment from different species is not changed. This implies that there is a high selective pressure to maintain the regulatory target elements of these genes during evolution.

Abstract
A novel modification of a two-row intestinal anastomosis technique is introduced. A step-like anastomosis was carried out by a short stepwise resection of the several intestinal wall laminae with intramural adaptation on the specific juncture. In 44 end-to-end intestinal anastomoses in dogs and 5 in children there were not observed any insufficiency and stenosis.
