Cardiac tamponade due to intrapericardial rupture of an amebic liver abscess

Pericardial abscess is rare in healthy individuals, especially the amebic type. We report a case of pericardial abscess and cardiac tamponade due to intrapericardial rupture of an amebic liver abscess. A 31-year old Japanese male complained of fever to a local hospital. A liver mass was discovered in his left hepatic lobe by an abdominal echogram. He was referred to the internal department of our hospital and was treated with quinolone antibiotics. Two weeks after medication, he suddenly complained of epigastralgia and severe orthopnea and was admitted. Abdominal computed tomographic scan showed an enlarged liver mass, and massive pericardial effusion suggested cardiac tamponade. He underwent an emergency subxiphoid partial pericardiectomy under local anesthesia. 1,000 ml of light brownish fluid was removed and his condition improved. Although no ameba was cultivated from the pus, the amebic serological test was positive. Metronidazole was administered and the patients was discharged 31 days after surgery.     

伊凡露临床应用总结

目的 观察法国伊凡露皮肤填充材料用于除皱、填充凹陷性瘢痕及面部塑形的临床应用效果。方法将伊凡露注射于需填充的部位并适当塑形，运用X^2检验比较两组满意率的差异、受术者年龄别满意率差异。结果共120例受术者，术后随访18个月，总满意率为95．8％。两组各60例，术后满意率分别为96．7％和95％，两组问满意率差异及各组满意率与总满意率之间差异无显著意义；受术者年龄别满意率差异亦无显著意义。结论伊凡露皮肤填充材料用于注射填充面部皱纹和凹陷性瘢痕，操作简便，美容效果好，受术者满意率高。     

乳头溢液的外科治疗（附207例分析）

目的探讨乳头溢液的渗断和治疗方法，为合理的治疗提供科学依据。方法回顾分析手术治疗的207例乳头溢液病例资料。结果（1）在非哺乳期间发生乳头溢液多属病理性溢液；（2）通过美蓝法或平针头指示法行区段切除术，安全准确。结论（1）乳头溢液特别足血性溢液应手术治疗．对早期发现和早期治疗乳腺癌有鼋要的临床意义。（2）乳头溢液伴肿块者，不沧年龄大小、溢液性质均应手术治疗。     

低位直肠癌保留肛门的综合治疗

目的探讨低位直肠癌保留肛门对其预后的影响。方法对25例低位直肠癌患者行术前放疗、化疗。术式：行全直肠系膜切除术（total mesorectal excision，TME），直肠分离至肛提肌水平。手术远端切缘超过肿瘤下缘1．0-2．0cm。均保留肛门。术后再给予放疗和化疗。结果全组无手术死亡，无吻合口瘘和吻合口狭窄发生。大部分患者术后3～6个月大便控制良好。随访1～37个月，仅有1例复发，1例死于心脏病。结论对于低位直肠癌患者，配合术前术后放、化疗，采用TME手术，不仅可以保留患者肛门，避免了人造肛门所致的心理影响，而且同样可以取得较好疗效。     

残胃癌临床诊治分析

目的分析和总结残胃癌的外科诊断、治疗及预后情况。方法对1990年以来收治的35例残胃癌的发病率、临床表现、治疗情况和预后进行回顾性分析。结果首次胃切除以胃溃疡为主,占65.7%,首次手术BillrothⅡ式占82.9%(29/35)。残胃癌早期缺乏特异的症状,主要为上腹部隐痛不适,首次手术距临床诊断残胃癌的间隔时间平均为16.3年。本组残胃癌手术切除率及根治性切除率分别为77.1%和54.3%,根治性切除患者1、3、5年生存率分为78.9%、52.6%、36.8%,Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期患者的5年生存率为72.7%。结论胃良性病行手术治疗时以BillrothⅠ式为首选,定期胃镜检查是早期诊断残胃癌的关键,根治性切除是治疗残胃癌的有效方法及影响残胃癌预后的重要因素。     

Clinical review: Vasculitis on the intensive care unit – part 2: treatment and prognosis

The second part of this review addresses the treatment and prognosis of the vasculitides Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyangiitis, Churg–Strauss syndrome and polyarteritis nodosa. Treatment regimens consist of an initial remission phase with aggressive immunosuppression, followed by a more prolonged maintenance phase using less toxic agents and doses. This review focuses on the initial treatment of fulminant vasculitis, the mainstay of which remains immunosuppression with steroids and cyclophosphamide. For Wegener's granulomatosis and microscopic polyangiitis plasma exchange can be considered for first-line therapy in patients with acute renal failure and/or pulmonary haemorrhage. Refractory disease is rare and is usually due to inadequate treatment. The vasculitides provide a particular challenge for the critical care team. Particular aspects of major organ support related to these conditions are discussed. Effective treatment has revolutionized the prognosis of these conditions. However, mortality is still approximately 50% for those requiring admission to intensive care unit. Furthermore, there is a high morbidity associated with both the diseases themselves and the treatment.     

Self-expandable metallic stent for unresectable malignant strictures in the esophagus and cardia

Objective Self-expandable metallic stent (EMS) placement has been the first choice for dysphagia because of the certainty over its safety, low invasiveness, and immediate efficacy. However, there still remain some problems in relation to the EMS placement site and anticancer therapies before and after EMS placement. Methods: Consecutive 78 patients in whom EMS was placed due to the unresectable malignant stricture in the esophagus or cardia from July 1995 to August 2003 in our department were studied. Results: Gastroesophageal reflux was found in 5 of 8 patients after placement of conventional EMS for the stricture in the gastroesophageal junction. Meanwhile, acid and bile reflux into the esophagus were not detected by pH and bilirubin monitoring, respectively, in 6 patients after placement of the EMS with an anti-reflux mechanism for the stricture in the gastroesophageal junction. The median survival period of all patients after EMS placement was 123 days. The median survival period of 7 patients with radiotherapy only after EMS placement was 138 days and that of 17 patients with radiotherapy before EMS placement was 60 days, which was shorter than that of the former (p<0.05). On the other hand, the median survival period after hospital admission due to dysphagia of these 7 patients was longer than that of 17 patients with radiotherapy only before EMS placement, although, the difference was not significant. Conclusion: EMS with an antireflux mechanism is not commercially available in Japan and approval is urgently required. The indication of radiotherapy associated with EMS placement is to be studied further.
