Résumé

Primary tumors of the lung are uncommon in pediatric patients, particularly bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC). An 11-year-old female suffering from back pain for 1 month was referred to Seoul St. Mary's Hospital for treatment of a pathologic fracture of the lumbar spine. Comprehensive evaluation disclosed numerous pulmonary metastases of rhabdomyosarcoma (stage IV). During chemotherapy, most of the lung lesions regressed, with the exception of two nodules. Wedge resections, intended for diagnosis and cure, yielded a histologic diagnosis of BAC.

Résumé

Lobectomy with mediastinal node dissection has been standard treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nowadays, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is gaining acceptance as an alternative treatment option, given the quality-of-life benefits that it confers. For the VATS procedure, most surgeons create two or three ports with a utility incision of 3 to 5 cm. However, with acquired skill and instrumentation advances, single-incision thoracoscopic surgery has emerged over time. Here, we report the case of an 86-year-old female with NSCLC treated by single-incision segmentectomy.

Résumé

BACKGROUND: Myocardial revascularization in patients with renal insufficiency is challenging to the cardiac surgeon, irrespective of utilizing extracorporeal circulation. This study aimed to compare the number of bypass grafts and the mid-term results and to evaluate independent survival predictors in patients with renal insufficiency undergoing on-pump or off-pump myocardial revascularization. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 103 patients with renal insufficiency, who had isolated myocardial revascularization between January 1999 and January 2009. The patients were divided into two groups, the on-pump group and the off-pump group. RESULTS: The off-pump group received a significantly greater number of distal arterial grafts than the on-pump group. However, the mean number of total grafts, the degree of complete revascularization, and survival rate of the patients were not significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate analysis showed the independent predictors for reduced mid-term survival were the number of total grafts and postoperative periodic renal replacement therapy. Off-pump myocardial revascularization does not decrease the number of bypass grafts or influence on the mid-term results for patients with renal insufficiency, compared to on-pump myocardial revascularization. CONCLUSION: Myocardial revascularization with a large number of total grafts has a beneficial effect on survival in patients with renal insufficiency, irrespective of utilizing extracorporeal bypass.

Résumé

Sarcoidosis is a somewhat common pulmonary disease, but the concurrence of lung cancer and sarcoidosis in the same patient is very rare. Because sarcoidosis usually presents as mediastinal lymphadenopathies, this concurrence in a lung cancer patient detected radiologically is apt to be misunderstood to be mediastinal metastases, and it is thus considered to be an unresectable disease. We report a case of lung cancer associated with sarcoidosis that developed in a 65-year-old woman who underwent surgery. Radiological studies revealed a 1.9x1.7 cm mass in the left upper lobe with multiple enlarged bilateral mediastinal lymph nodes (2R, 3a, 4R, 4L, 5, 6, 7, 8R). Pathologic findings showed that the mass was a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and all of the enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes were granulomas without cancer metastasis. We report this case with a review of the literature.

Résumé

The concentration of clotrimazole in the cornea considering the lapse of time after topical administration of 1% clotrimazole, in a single drop or 13 drops at an interval of 5 minutes, was evaluated by agar diffusion bioassay, The rabbits were divided into 3 groups: normal cornea, deepithelized cornea and Aspergillus keratitis, In the case of a single dose, the drug concentration in the normal cornea was lower than the value which can be measured, and the concentration in deeptithelized cornea was significantly higher than in keratitis(p<0.05). In the case of multiple doses, the drug concentration in keratitis was higher than in the deepitheHzed cornea and both of these were higher than in the norma cornea. EspeciaUy the group of keratitis had a significantly higher level(p<0.05) and an abrupt decrease of the drug concentration than the group of deepithelized cornea. This result means that the cornea during inflammation has increased permeability and great metabolic activity. In general the drug concentration in all groups except a single dose in the normal cornea was higher than minimal inhibitory concentration of clotrimazole against A. fumigatus, and this result suggests that the topical administration of 196 dotrimazole is likely to be efficacious in the treatment of Aspergillus keratitis.

Résumé

Retinal toxicity secondary to intravitreal injection of gentamicin for the purpose of prophylaxis or treatment of endophthalmitis was reported infrequently and it was thought to be caused by an error in the intravitreal injection technique or by faulty dilution of gentamicin. After vitrecotomy, we experienced two cases of ischemic retinopathy secondary to intravitreal injection of gentamicin for prevention of endopthalmitist.

Résumé

We have applied the intraoperative use of Perfluorophenanthrene (C14F24) liquid in 19 eyes of complicated retinal detachment surgery in 19 patients since November 1990 to October 1991. The vast majority of case of retinal detachment was trauma (9 eyes) and uveitis including pars planitis (6 eyes) remainders were juvenile retinoschisis, cataract surgery, myopIa, diabetes one eye each. The grade-D of proliferative change was found in 9 eyes (D1 3 eyes, D2 3 eyes, D3 3 eyes) and 8 eyes belong to over grade-C2 (C2 4 eyes, C3 4 eyes). Multiple anterior retinal tears were found in two. Giant retinal tear was noticed in 5 eyes and the other one was made on therapeutic purpose. Intraoperative reattachment was obtained in all eyes. The follow-up periods were 6 or more (mean 9.1) months. At last follow-up, the retina was attached in 12 eyes (63%), partially attached in 2 (10%) and redetached in 5 (26%). Visual acuity was improved or same in 12 eyes (63%), became worse in 7(37%). Visual acuity of 0.02 or better was obtained in 12(63%) eyes and 3(16%) saw 0.1 or better. Perfluorophenanthrene liquid was thought as non-toxic, heavy biomaterial and effective to treat the complicated retinal detachments.
