摘要:
Abstract:A new method for the quantitative measurement of fluorescent intensity of the rat's liver surface after fluorescein injection is described. The measuring system of fluorescent intensity on the rat liver surface consisted of a video laparoscopy with a video densitometer. An excitation filter was placed in the light source and an absorbing filter was attached to the eyepiece of the magnifying scope in this fluorescence video laparoscopy system. Fluorescein was injected intravenously into the inferior vena cava. Video fluorescence images of the liver surface were recorded with a CCD TV camera which was connected to the scope. In measuring the mean intensity of video images, a region of interest was designated on the TV monitor. The fluorescent intensity in this region was measured by a video densitometer and expressed in volts. The time‐intensity curve was graphically presented using a pen recorder. In this way, the time course of the liver surface fluorescent intensity could be analyzed with data expressed in volts. In normal livers, the fluorescent intensity began to rise 4.0 ± 0.5 seconds after fluorescein injection and reached a peak at 14.4 ± 1.5 seconds. Thereafter, the intensity fell slightly but then rose again to a second peak 170±50 seconds after injec

摘要:
Abstract:We performed H2‐receptor antagonist maintenance therapy for 2 years on 146 patients with healed gastric ulcers (including those with concurrent duodenal ulcers), and determined the cumulative endoscopic and symptomatic recurrence rates. We also investigated the factors involved in ulcer recurrence in the first 12 months of maintenance therapy. The cumulative endoscopic non‐recurrence rate was 70.0% at 12 months and 57.2% at 24 months, while the cumulative symptomatic non‐recurrence rate was 84.8% at 12 months and 75.0% at 24 months. The factors contributing to endoscopic recurrence were the presence of a concomitant disease, the presence of duodenal ulcer, the type of ulcer, and the endoscopic stage at healing. The factors related to symptomatic recurrence were smoking and the type of ulcer. Multivariate analysis showed that the type of ulcer, smoking, and the endoscopic stage at healing influenced the risk of recur

摘要:
Abstract:To study the pathogenetic role of Helicobacter pylori, colonization of this organism was attempted in conventional rhesus monkeys. After inoculation of human H. pylori to the gastric mucosa of four 10‐year‐old monkeys, endoscopical and histological examinations were repeated for 10 weeks. The organisms were recovered bacteriologically from all 4 monkeys at the first week, from 3 animals at the 2nd, and from 2 animals at the 6th to 10th week. The endoscopical examination showed only minimum changes in the mucosal appearance such as erythema and erosion due to H. pylori colonization throughout the study. In contrast, the histological examination revealed prominent polymorphonuclear cell infiltration, edema of the mucosa and dissected epithelium at the earlier periods and mononuclear cell infiltration afterwards. The maximum lymphocyte reaction such as clusters or the formation of a thick layer at the bottom of the lamina propria was observed at the 8th week. These results indicated that rhesus monkeys can be infected by human H. pylori resulting in similar pathologic changes in the human stomach, and that this animal model may be useful for future stud

摘要:
Abstract:The estrogen receptor was studied in a total of 42 cases of gastric carcinoma which included 14 cases of the penetrating type of early gastric carcinoma (PEN), 14 cases of the common type of early gastric carcinomas (EA) and 14 cases of the advanced gastric carcinomas (AD). An immunohistochemical study using the anti‐ER‐D5 antibody revealed that the detection of estrogen receptor‐positive tumor cells was significantly higher in the PEN group and in the AD group than in the EA group. Moreover, the incidence of estrogen receptor immunoreactivity in infiltrative and scirrhous PENs was significantly higher than that in non‐infiltrative and non‐scirrhous PENs. These results suggests that the estrogen receptor may play an important role in infiltrative proliferation and scirrhous growth in the PENs. Furthermore, the results indicated that ER immunostaining procedures applied to endoscopic biopsy specimens could be useful for the endoscopic diagnosis of PEN‐type early gas

摘要:
Abstract:Biopsy specimens endoscopically obtained from the stomach, duodenum, sigmoid colon and rectum of 58 patients with rheumotoid arthritis (RA) were examined for amyloid deposition by light microscopy. Six cases (10.3%) were diagnosed as being amyloidosis. In cases with more than moderate amyloid deposition, amyloid was most notable in the lamina propria mucosae. In cases with slight amyloid deposition, amyloid was seen in the blood vessel walls of the lamina muscularis mucosae and tela submucosa. On the whole, amyloid deposition was most marked in the duodenum. Endoscopically, whitish, irregular, partially nodular thickening of mucosa was characteristic in the sites with severe amyloid deposition. A fine granular appearance was observed in the sites with moderate amyloid deposition. No particular abnormal findings were noticed in the sites with slight amyloid deposition. Erosions, redness and a tendency for easy mucosal bleeding appeared frequently in the sites with more than moderate amyloid deposition. The endoscopic abnormal findings were most remarkable in the duodenum, and mildest in the recto‐sigmoid colon. It was suggested that these abnormal findings were correlated with the degree of amyloid deposition especially in the lamina propria mucosae. All the amyloidosis cases were in advanced anatomical stages of RA. The degree of anemia was more severe, and total protein, albumin and total cholesterol values were lower in the amyloidosis cases than in non‐amyloidosis cases. It is clear that when endoscopic examinations of RA patients are done to rule out amyloidosis, a biopsy should be taken from a depth including the submucosa even if the endoscopic finding is nor

摘要:
Abstract:A case of primary sclerosing cholangitis in which an endoscopic inspection through the fistula produced by percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage was performed for the treatment of progressive jaundice and supprative cholangitis is presented. These treatments benefited the patient to some degree. After 3 years from the onset, the patient died of multi‐organ failure caused by disseminated intravascular coagulopathy. An autopsy revealed primary sclerosing cholangitis. No evidence of ductal stricture due to malignancy or underlying cholelithiasis was noted.This report may be the first which discusses the endoscopic findings of a biliary tract stricture in a patient with sclerosing cholangiti

摘要:
Abstract:The case of a 59 year‐old female with asymptomatic primary biliary cirrhosis with negative anti‐mitochondrial antibody is presented. According to the results of the first laparoscopy and liver biopsy, reddish patch was observed but chronic non‐suppurative destructive cholangitis could not histologically be confirmed. A follow‐up laparoscopy with liver biopsy conducted 39 months after the first laparoscopy revealed progress in the laparoscopic findings, i. e. a focal appearance of mesh‐like white marking and undulation, when chronic non‐suppurative destructive cholangitis was histologically demonstrated. Following the diagnosis of primary biliary cirrhosis, ursodeoxycholic acid treatment was begun, and the patient's serum levels of transaminases and biliary tract enzymes showed a rapid improvement.The importance of a laparoscopy with liver biopsy for the diagnosis of asymptomatic primary biliary cirrhosis in a case with negative anti‐mitochondrial antibody is emphasized, and the follow‐up of such a

摘要:
Abstract:A case of hepatocellular carcinoma with metastasis to the duodenum is reported on together with a review of the literature. A 61‐year‐old male was admitted with hematemesis and melena. An endoscopic examination revealed a large hemorrhagic ulcer at the duodenal bulbi. A biopsied specimen taken from the bottom of the ulcer revealed an infiltrating hepatocellular carcinoma. The postmortem examination revealed a hepatocellular carcinoma with metastasis in the duodenum. This is the third report of hepatocellular carcinoma with metastasis in the duode

摘要:
Abstract:This study reports on a non familial case of Turcot's syndrome in a 40‐year‐old man with an astrocytoma (grade II) in the pineal region, colonic polyposis and four adenomas in the gastric antrum. In previous reports, most patients with Turcot's syndrome revealed symptoms until early in the fourth decade of their lives. In most cases, a complete resection of the brain tumors were impossible, and/or colonic polyps had already developed malignant transformation at the time of diagnosis, which led to a poor prognosis. In our case, however, the brain tumor was completely resected and a detailed histological analysis of the polyps in the colectomy specimen revealed no malignant transformation. A good prognosis, therefore, could be expected with a careful follow‐up. In this paper, we compare our case with 50 previous cases of Turcot's syndrome histopathologically confirmed and reported in the literature, with special reference to their gastrointestinal manifesta

摘要:
Abstract:The laparoscopic and histological findings of a patient suffering from dimethylformamide (DMF) intoxication are discussed. A 20‐year‐old man was admitted to our department for further evaluation of a liver injury. A laparoscopy revealed that the liver was markedly deformed by a combination of depressions and protuberances, and this finding was compatible with the funnel liver reported by H. Kalk. After an intravenous injection of high dose indocyanine green, broad whitish depressions appeared as a non‐staining area and surrounding protuberances were stained a dark green color. A biopsy specimen taken from the site of the depression showed massive hepatic necrosis and a scar under the capsule. The histological diagnosis was a convalescent stage of toxic liver injury. The present report is apparently the first to consider the detailed laparoscopic findings of a liver injury induced b
