Multiple cavernous hemangiomas of the orbits.

Intraocular tumors were detected in both orbits simultaneously by computed tomography scanning in a 45-year-old woman complaining of proptosis of the right eye, decreased visual acuity, and diplopia. The tumor in the right orbit was resected by the subfrontal extradural approach, and that in the left orbit by the Krönlein-Berke method. The right tumor was found on the side of the external ear of the muscle cone and the left tumor was located inferiorly on the side of the external ear of the muscle cone. Both tumors were cavernous hemangiomas with identical macroscopic and histologic features.

BMY-28438 (3,7-dihydroxytropolone), a new antitumor antibiotic active against B16 melanoma. I. Production, isolation, structure and biological activity.

A new antitumor antibiotic BMY-28438 was isolated from the cultured broth of Streptomyces tropolofaciens No. K611-97. The antibiotic showed potent cytotoxicity against cultured B16 melanoma cells and remarkable prolongation of life span of mice bearing B16 melanoma. The structure of BMY-28438 was determined as 3,7-dihydroxytropolone on the basis of spectral analyses and direct comparison with the authentic compound synthesized.

[A case of lumbosacral lipoma and its interesting histological findings].

A case of 3-month-old girl with lumbosacral lipoma is reported. She had a large soft tissue mass (4 X 5 cm) in the lumbosacral region initially noted at birth. Interpendicular distances below L2 were dilated on X-P. CT image demonstrated a sharply outlined low density area (approximately -80 H. U.) which occupied the latter half of the spinal canal in the level of L2 to S1 level. Defect of vertebral arch was also seen. Lipoma was removed subtotally with laminectomy. CT image demonstrated clear sharp margin of the tumor, neural tissue free zone were not found intraoperatively. Post-operative course was uneventful. Specimen showed the mature adipose tissue which contained rich blood vessels and connective tissue. Connective tissue was composed of collagen fibers and elastic fibers. Small aberrant nerve fibers and smooth muscle fibers were sporadically noted in specimens obtained from nearby transitional area of its lipoma and spinal cord. Although there were a few reports about the morphology of lipoma, the existence of nerve cell, neuroglia, embryonic bone, cartilage, smooth muscle fiber, striated muscle fiber, respiratory-like cell and others were reported in the previous reports. Our histological findings also suggest that the lipoma possibly arise from pluripotential caudal cell mass which survived by disturbance of the 3rd stage of neural tube formation (retrogressive differentiation).

[A case of breast cancer with pleural metastasis responding to administration of intrapleural adriamycin and systemic chemotherapy with FEMP].

A 51-year-old woman with breast cancer metastatic to the pleura was treated with intrapleural instillation of adriamycin after thoracentesis, and systemic administration of FEMP, with complete response for more than 11 months. She underwent radical mastectomy and bilateral oophorectomy for advanced breast cancer, and 18 months later presented radiological evidence of pleural fluid contralateral to the affected breast. Initially, thoracentesis for symptomatic relief was done with a positive cytology in the pleural effusion. Intrapleural instillation of adriamycin was followed by partial resolution, and administration of FEMP achieved complete disappearance of both pleural metastasis and pleural effusion.
