摘要:

A 55‐year‐old female had a partly cystic, partially solid tumor of the left ovary. Histologically, the tumor revealed typical benign features of Brenner tumor mixed with malignant areas showing large epithelial nests composed of marked pleomorphic cells. Only 4 cases of malignant Brenner tumor have been reported including ours to our knowledge in Ja

摘要:

Two autopsy cases of granulomatous aortitis associated with necrotizing angiitis and glomerulonephritis were reported. Case 1 was a 31 year‐old female and a diagnosis of typical Takayasu's arteritis was made. Case 2 was a 64‐year‐old female. In the central portion of the aotlc media, granulomatous inflammation surrounding coagulation necrosis was observed. This aortitis is different from classical Takayasu's arteritis and is diagnosed as “unclassified” aortitis.The significance and inter‐relationship of these lesions were discussed. Clinical and anatomical features of these two cases suggest some common background of Immune ab

摘要:

Two cases of thorotrast tumor were reported; in one of them, it primarily developed in the liver, and in the other it originated in the neck. Both cases revealed an intimate correlation between tumor development and thorotrast deposition, which seemed to be fixed along the lymphsystem in the Glisson's capsule and hilar lymph nodes, although histological findings in some parts especially central and midzonal part of liver lobules indicated considerable mobility of thorotrast deposits. This is probably because lymph nodes, which receive lymph flowing out of the respective organs remove the thorotrast granule from the lymph and are deteriorated by them. Deterioration of the lymph nodes dams the stream of thorotrast granules and fix their deposits. Fibrosis around the thorotrast granules is due to reaction of connective tissue around them as a foreign body and radioactive substance. Malignant tumors of the two cases originated nearby areas with marked thorotrast deposition.

摘要:

A case of ossification in papillotubular adenocarcinoma of the stomach and a case of calcification in mucinous adenocarcinoma of the stomach have been presented.The number of cases of ossification and/or calcification in gastric cancer was only 39 cases including our cases in the world literature, in which only three cases of ossification were included. Our first case with ossification is the first one in the Japanese literature. Theories on the pathogenesis of ossification and calcification in carcinomatous foci are discussed.

摘要:

An autopsy case of fatal strongyloidiasis in a patient with pemphigus vulgaris receiving long‐term administration of corticosteroids was presented. There might exist a subclinical stage of 26 years between the acquisition of infection and the appearance of its severe symptoms. It is suggested that the long‐term administration of corticosteroids and debilitating diseases increase the pathogenecity ofStrongyloides stercoralisby autoinfection, and that fatal strongyloidiasis could be a possible complication of treatment with corticostero

摘要:

An autopsy case of a 34‐year‐old male who had been suspected of having rheumatic myocarditis with eosinophilia was described.At autopsy the heart was remarkably enlarged (780 g) with mural thrombi in both ventricles. Histology revealed features of so‐called fibroplastic parietal endocarditis with eosinophilia or Ldffler's endocarditis. Vascular changes, mainly of arterioles and consisting of endothelial proliferation, thickened intlma, and rarefaction of media were observed in nearly all organs. The etiology and pathogenesis of this condition are at present un

摘要:

An autopsy case of abnormal glycogen and non‐ glycogen polysaccharide deposition in a 7‐year‐old boy with extreme cardiomegaly was encountered. The accumulation of a non‐glycogen carbohydrate was seen in cardiac muscle fibers, skeletal muscle fibers, smooth muscle fibers of various organs, nerve tissues of brain, epithelial cells of liver, kidney and adrenal glands, and some other organs. Its histochemical properties were studied and it was categorized as an acidic mucopolysaccharide according to the classification suggested in the previous literatures. The electron microscopic features observed in the non‐glycogen storage were composed of randomly arranged filaments, somewhat different from amylopectinosis. Glycogen particles were occasionally found, but most of them were exhausted after death. Glycogenosomes were not identified and a‐glucoside could not be examined. Accordingly, a definite diagnosis of glycogenosis type II could not be made, but possible diagnosis of this disease with non‐glycogen polysaccharide storage was suggested by the autopsy findings and histochemical properties of stora

摘要:

The present report deals with the results of our study on two autopsy cases in whom hepatosplenomegaly and disturbances of the liver function had been noticed in early life. Both died at the age of 23 months and 30 months old, respectively. The necropsy of the cases had demonstrated the depositions of abnormal glycogen (polysaccharide) In the liver, heart and the reticuloendothelial system, and cirrhosis of the liver. Histoche‐mically, the stored material resembled glycogen but it showed some unusual properties, particularly its slow digestion by amylase as well as the tone of a mauve color with Iodine and the affinity for ruthenium red. These findings suggested that these two cases resemble very closely glycogen storage disease of type IV (Andersen's disease), which is a very rare diseas
