RESUMO

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common complication and the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in diabetic patients. The occurrence of non-diabetic renal disease (NDRD) in diabetic patients has been increasingly recognized in recent years. Generally, renal injuries in DN are deemed difficult to reverse, whereas some NDRDs are often treatable and even remittable. Thus, the diagnosis of NDRD in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) via a kidney biopsy would be significant for its prognosis and therapeutic strategy. According to recent studies, the most common NDRD is IgA nephropathy in type 2 diabetic patients, and some cases of minimal change disease and membranous glomerulonephritis have been reported in Korea. However, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is an uncommon condition in diabetic patients. To our knowledge, there has been no case yet of MPGN, except in a child with type 1 DM. We present an unusual case of a 27-year-old woman who had type 2 DM with MPGN, as confirmed via a kidney biopsy.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess the CT findings of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma associated with hepatolithiasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The CT features of 26 patients with cholangiocarcinoma and hepatolithiasis were reviewed and compared with those of 23 patients with intrahepatic stones alone, acting as control subjects. CT findings were analyzed for tumor appearance and adjacency to hepatolithiasis. We studied clinical findings, noting the presence or absence of wall thickening or soft tissue attenuation within the bile duct, the luminal diameter of dilated bile duct, and the presence of periductal enhancement, and compared these with the findings for control groups. RESULTS: CT images of the tumor revealed a hepatic low-attenuating mass with peripheral rim enhancement(n=14, 54 %), or periductal thickening, or low-attenuating lesions in segmental dilatation of intrahepataic bile ducts(n=12, 46%). Most hepatic tumors were seen in areas adjacent to hepatolithiasis, or in a bile duct. Compared with control groups, patients with cholangiocarcinoma were old (p0.05). CONCLUSION: When an intrahepatic low-attenuating mass, or peridutal thickening and low-attenuating lesions in segmental dilated intrahepatic duct are found associated in adjacent intrahepatic stones, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma should be considered.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: I-131 labeled (2'-deoxy-2-iodo-p-D-arabinofuranosyl) adenine (IAD) may be involved in DNA synthesis during active proliferation of tumor cells. We conducted this study to find out the biodistribution of IAD and its feasibility for scintigraphic tumor imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Tosyl acetyl-adenosine was dissolved in acetonitrile, and I-131-NaI was added and heated to synthesize IAD. Female Fisher 344 rats innoculated with breast tumor cells were injected witb 0.27 MBq of IAD. Rats were sacrificed at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 24h and the % of injected dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g) was determined. For scintigraphy, rats bearing breast cancer were administered with 1.11 MBq of IAD and imaging was perforrned after 2 and 24h. Then, rat body was fixed and rnicrotomized slice was placed on radiographic film for autoradiography, RESULTS: %ID/g of tumor wa.' 0.74 (0.5h), 0.73 (1h), 0.55 (2h), 0.38 (4h), and 0.05 (24h), respectively. At 1h after injection, %ID/g of tumor was higher than that of heart (0.34), liver (0.42), spleen (0.47), kidney (0,69), muscle (0.14), bone (0.33) and intestine (0.51). However, %1D/g of tumor was lower than blood (1.06), lung (0.77), and thyroid (177.71). At 4h, %ID/g of tumor in comparison with other tissue did not change. Tumor contrast expressed by tumor to blood ratio was 0.69 and tumor to muscle ratio was 5.11 at 1h. However, these ratios did not improve through 24h. On autoradiogram and scintigraphy at 2 and 24 hour, the tumor was well visualized. CONCLUSION: This results suggest that Ial) may have a potential for tumor scintigraphy. However, further work is needed to improve localization in tumor tissue.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate and compare effectiveness of single acquisition CT and conventional angiography (CA) in grading stenosis in an artery of the lower extremity . MATERIALS AND METHODS: CA and CTA were performed in 12 patients with acclusive arterial disease of the lower extremity. CA extended from the bifurcation site of the abdominal aorta to the popliteal artery, 25-30 seconds after the injection of 120-150ml contrast media by a power injector at the rate of 2.5-3ml/sec via the antecubital vein. Using SSD and MIP methods, the data was reconstructed three-dimensionally. The artery was divided into five segments and the degree of lesion was definedas normal or mild (1-49%), moderate (50-74%), or severe stenosis (75-99%), or occlusion (100%). We retrospectively evaluated and compared the effectiveness of CTA and CA in the detection of each vessel and the grading ofstenosis. RESULTS: Although 11 segments were graded by CA as occluded, only five of these were similarly graded by CTA, and the remaining six were undergraded. The ratio of consistency for grading was 88.5% (46/52) in less thanmild stenosis, and 63.6% (7/11) in moderate or severe stenosis ; if the 11 segments detected only by CTA wereexcluded, the ratio of consistency for occlusion was 100%. Overall diagnostic accuracy was 84.2% (85/101) and whenthe 11 segments were excluded, this was 88.9% (80/90). Because of the capacity of CTA to distinguish vessles with greater than 50% stenosis from those with less than mild stenosis, sensitivity of 86.0%, specificity of 93.2% and accuracy of 89.1% were recorded. If the 11 vessels detected only by CTA were excluded, sensitivity and accuracy would be 91.3% and 92.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION: For detecting and grading stenosis in an artery of the lowerextremity, single acquisition CTA is more accurate than its conventional counter part, and we believe that CTA is a useful modality in the planning and follow-up of treatment.
