Angiograms following renal trauma in a ten-year-old girl were highly suggestive of renal neoplasm, especially Wilms' tumor. There are striking similarities between arteriograms after renal trauma and those showing neovascularity.
The first case of an obstructing stone composed of a pure metabolite of the sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim combination is reported. Its coincident occurrence with an obstructing calcium oxalate stone, producing oligura and acute azotemia, is noteworthy.
Methods for sampling, extracting, and quantitating the metabolic pools of organic acids from bacteria have been developed. The concentration of these metabolites was determined by a new gas chromatographic method that can quantitatively determine the levels of lactate, pyruvate, fumarate, succinate, malate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and citrate. Values obtained were confirmed by fluorimetric analyses of five of the individual acids. In Escherichia coli, pools range from about 1 to 5 mumol/g of dry weight, with a variation in replicate samples of 5 to 15%. Under similar conditions, these pools in Bacillus licheniformis are in the same range, although the pyruvic acid pool is significantly larger.
