RESUMEN

Central catheterization for temporary vascular access in hemodialysis patients may cause serious catheter-related infection such as bacteremia, osteomyelitis, and septic shock. We here report a case of unusual complication of catheter-related infection in a hemodialysis patient with internal jugular catheter. A 44-year old man was admitted due to intermittent fever and right chest discomfort. Five weeks ago, right internal jugular catheter was inserted for hemodialysis. Three weeks ago, He stopped hemodialysis treatment and exit site skin care of the catheter by himself. Chest X-ray showed massive right pleural effusion. But the catherter was normally positioned in superior vena cava. Both blood and pleural fluid cultures demonstrated Staphylococcus aureus. After prompt removal of the catheter and drainage of the pleural fluid, and adequate antibiotic treatment, catheter-related bacteremia and pleural effusion improved.

Bilateral adrenal enlargement was found on a previous abdominal sonogram. Under the impression of acute adrenal insufficiency, intravenous hydrocortisone and vigorous saline infusion were given immediately. Later, the endocrine function tests revealed primary hypoadrenalism. The 1st CHOP chemotherapy was administered after tissue diagnosis.

RESUMEN

Multiple primary tumors are defined as cases involving primary malignant tumors of different histologic origins in one person. Recently, the number of reports dealing with multiple primary tumors has been increasing due to more developed diagnostic procedures and patients with longer survival rates. Both the occurrence of multiple primary tumors and the primary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum are infrequent, accounting for less than 1% of all carcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract. Also, It has been reported that duodenal bulb cancer combined with early gastric cancer is extremely rare. One case was experienced involving duodenal bulb cancer combined with early gastric carcinoma, and is herein reported with a review of related literatures.
