About 8 minutes after the launch from Marianske Lazne Airport, the likely head of the group of kidnappers threw the captain of the plane. During the fight with one of the passenger, the head of the group of kidnappers killed the captain of the aircraft by a shot from 7.65 mm pistol. Other members of the hijackers group attacked other passengers. After the aircraft captains death, the second pilot took command and landed at the sports club at Weiden. After the landing, the kidnappers were detained by the police. Ten kidnappers stayed in the Federal Republic of Germany. An airplane with other passengers and coffin of a shot captain landed in Prague Ruzyne the following day. On June 12, 1972, the re-autopsy of the captain of the aircraft was performed at the Central Military Hospital in Prague. Post-autopsy status was detected. In this re-autopsy, it was possible to reconstruct the fire channel only incompletely, because during the previous autopsy performed in Federal Republic of Germany was excised the shot wound left on the neck. The fire channel began with a hole in the skin 10 cm above the right breast nipple, continued to the left and slightly upward through the subcutaneous tissue, passed through the 2nd rib at the right at a distance of 4.5 cm from the sternum, continued the lower and inner sides of the right collarbone, flowing on the front the ring cartilage and the first ring of the trachea, and on the underside of the left lobes of the thyroid gland, passed on the front of the left common carotid and continued into the area of the left SCM. The exid shot hole was on the left half of the neck. The direction of the shotway canal from right side to left side was detectable only by the fragment of the 2nd rib, which was broken out to the left and inside. The cause of the captains death was a traumatic shock. The injury was caused by a short firearm of small stance. Additional factors of firing were not found on the skin, as well as no signs of gas pressure. At the request of the experts performing the autopsy, a copy of the autopsy protocol from Germany was sent to them by an autopsied doctor. Among other things, it was reported that a 6.5 cm under the lower end of the left ear was a transversely oval, 2.5 cm long and 1.2 cm wide, red-black dried place of the upper skin, from which center run out a little red blood. At the conclusion of the autopsy protocol, it was found that there was a shotgun injury at the left side of the neck and the right side of the chest. The entrance wound according to the sent copy of the autopsy protocol, lay on the left side of the neck, the bullet penetrated the neck muscles, broke the inner branch of the cervical artery, passed through the trachea, penetrated the collarbone, split the 2nd rib to the right about 2 cm next to the sternum and th","PeriodicalId":9861,"journal":{"name":"Ceskoslovenska patologie","volume":"57 1","pages":"11-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38850689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to implement NGS testing in practice and arrange its reimbursement by the health care system, first it is necessary to reach an agreement on the level of professional societies concerning the definition of priority and medically clearly justified areas in which molecular testing has a clear impact on therapeutical choices. The next step is to reach an agreement with the health insurance companies regarding NGS testing. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of the issue of routine tumor tissue testing using the NGS method covered by public health insurance, with a summary of the current situation in the Czech Republic.

Its morphology represents a challenge in classification of vascular tumors, regarding their biological behaviour in particular. We present a case report of a 47-years-old female with a history of left-sided breast adenocarcinoma treated by resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Three years after the primary diagnosis a tumorous mass appeared in the region of upper margin of left scapula, in subcutaneous tissues and the trapezius muscle. Histologically, the tumor was formed by multiple blood vessels of varied diameter and wall thickness. Endothelial lining was bland, without atypia; thromboses were observed in vascular spaces. In the interstitium, a population of spindle and pleomorphic cells with distinctive atypia and bizarre nuclei was found. These cells showed positivity in immunohistochemical expression of smooth muscle actin, further extensive immunohistochemistry including cytokeratines was negative. Mitoses were absent, proliferating activity was minimal. Signs of infiltrative growth pattern were not found and the tumor lacked hallmarks of malignant behaviour. A diagnosis of symplastic haemangioma was established. Above mentioned atypical stromal cells show myofibroblastic and sporadically smooth muscle differentiation. Their atypical appearence is associated with degenerative alterations similar to changes in leiomyomas with bizarre nuclei or ancient schwannomas. Etiopathogenesis of these changes is not clear, there are hypotheses considering long-lasting persistence of the lesion, regression of ischaemic or postinflammatory origin, or, like in our case, postirradiative degeneration.
