Acute hemorrhagic cystitis caused by adenovirus type 11 after renal transplantation.

A case of acute hemorrhagic cystitis caused by adenovirus type 11, which occurred in an allograft recipient 6 months after a living-related renal transplantation, is described. The patient lacked a neutralizing antibody to adenovirus type 11 before transplantation. Adenovirus type 11 was isolated from his urine and he developed a neutralizing and complement-fixing antibody to this virus. Although adenovirus type 11 isolates had been obtained from 2 of 18 renal allograft recipients, only 1 patient suffered acute hemorrhagic cystitis. Adenovirus type 11 may play a role in acute hemorrhagic cystitis in renal allograft recipients during immunosuppressive therapy.

[A case of ischias as a complication of internal iliac artery embolization].

A case of severe right radicular ischias following embolization is reported. Gelfoam powder and pledgets were used for right internal iliac artery embolization in the case of intractable bladder cancer hemorrhage. It is supposed that previous radiotherapy and fine embolic material may be the contributing factors to this complication.

[A case of spontaneous rupture of renal cell carcinoma].

A case of spontaneous rupture of renal cell carcinoma is reported. A 53-year old man was admitted with the chief complaint of sudden gross hematuria and right flank pain on December 28, 1979. On the following day, the clinical impression was right ruptured kidney, and therefore right nephrectomy was done. Pathological diagnosis was renal cell carcinoma. He received the post-operative irradiation of a total of 5,000 rads. He was seen five years later, at which time there was no evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis of cancer. Thirty three cases of spontaneous rupture of renal cell carcinoma were collected from Japanese and English literature. Most common chief complaint is abdominal or flank pain. Excretory urography, ultrasonography, CT scan and angiography are useful, but it is difficult to diagnose preoperatively when the tumor is small. Therefore, it is important to suspect occult cancer when a reasonable cause of rupture is undetermined. In these indeterminate cases primary nephrectomy should be considered strongly.

[A case of fibroma of the spermatic cord].

A case of fibroma of the spermatic cord is presented. A 26-year-old man was admitted with the complaint of a painless swelling in the left scrotum. On physical examination, the tumor seemed to be in the left spermatic cord. It was removed surgically on May 2, 1983. Microscopic examination of the specimen revealed that the tumor was composed of collagen fibers and fibroblasts. This histological finding was compatible with that of fibroma. Seven cases of fibroma of the spermatic cord so far reported in Japan, including this case, were reviewed.

[Carcinoma of the urachus--report of 4 cases].

Four cases of urachal carcinoma are presented. The first case was a 36-year-old man who was admitted with the chief complaint of macrohematuria with mucinous debris. Cystoscopic examination revealed a single tumor at the dome of the bladder. Partial cystectomy and postoperative radiation therapy were performed. Histological findings showed a well differentiated adenocarcinoma. He has been well for twelve years postoperatively. The second case was a 52-year-old man who was admitted with the chief complaint of macrohematuria with mucinous debris. Cystoscopic examination revealed a single tumor at the dome of the bladder. Partial cystectomy and postoperative radiochemotherapy were performed. Histological findings showed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. He died of a recurrent tumor 30 months after operation. The third case was 70-year-old man who was admitted with the chief complaint of macrohematuria with mucinous debris. Cystoscopic examination revealed multiple tumors at the dome of the bladder, internal urethral orifice and right lateral wall. Total cystectomy, ureterocutaneostomy and postoperative chemotherapy were performed. Histological findings showed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. He died of a recurrent tumor 30 months after operation. The fourth case was a 68-year-old woman who was admitted with the chief complaint of macrohematuria with mucinous debris. Cystoscopic examination revealed a single tumor at the dome of the bladder. CT scan demonstrated a mass with calcification extending from the bladder dome superiorly. Partial cystectomy and postoperative chemotherapy were performed. Histological findings showed a well differentiated adenocarcinoma. She has been well for three months postoperatively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

[2 cases of bullous pemphigoid and Bowen's disease associated with esophageal cancer].

There are many published reports on the combination of malignant tumors of the digestive tract and various skin diseases. To date, 8 cases with combined bullous pemphigoid and malignant tumor, or Bowen's disease and malignant tumor, have been reported in Japan. In only 2 cases was the esophageal cancer combined with skin disease. The pathophysiological relationship between skin diseases and malignant tumors of the digestive tract remains unknown.

Atypical subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.

An unusual case of panencephalitis in a 4-year-old Japanese boy, with onset at three months after measles infection and rapid progression to a comatose state in approximately one month, is described. A rapid rise in serum measles antibody titre after the onset of the symptoms, and the appearance of various abnormal antibodies in the serum, were noted. Pathologically, the brain showed sclerosing polio- and leucoencephalitis with diffuse gliosis and sporadic intranuclear inclusions. The process is suggested to be intermediate or transitional between acute measles encephalitis and SSPE.

Low-Temperature-Adapted Influenza A2/AA/6/60 Virus Vaccine in Man.

Volunteers inoculated nasopharyngeally with liver A2/AA/6/60 virus grown in primary bovine kidney cell cultures at 25 C were asymptomatic but developed significant serum and respiratory secretory antibody responses. Viruses were not recovered from these volunteers who had a low or moderate level of prevaccination antibody titers.
