Elderly patients with a history of chronic alcoholism presented to our hospital with episodes of melena, abdominal pain, and anemia. During admission, hemorrhagic cystic lesion at the pancreas was observed on abdominal CT. Transcatheter angiography confirmed active bleeding foci and arterial embolization was performed. After the procedure, the bleeding was resolved. The authors report two cases of hemosuccus pancreaticus and pancreaticocolic fistula associated with pancreatitis, a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding, treated with vascular intervention.

구강점막에 발생하는 종양성 병변으로는 대표적으로 구강점막암(oral mucous membrane cancer), 유두종(papilloma),혈관종(hemangioma), 임파관종(lymphangioma),섬유종(fibroma)등이 있는데 이들 병변들은 구강내 협점막, 치은, 경구개, 연구개, 구강저, 혀 등에 궤양이나 증식성 병소로 나타나서 동통, 출혈, 치아동요, 종창 등의 증상을 유발시킨다. 이러한 병변들에 대한 명확한 치료와 예후를 결정하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 이들 병변들에 대한 정확한 소견에 근거한 진단이 우선되어야 할 것이다. 따라서 본 장에서는 정확한 진단과 치료를 위해 이들 병변들에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

A 48-year-old female complained of edema and pain in her left neck. She underwent acupuncture therapy for 1 month in a local oriental medicine clinic because of her arm pain. Computer tomography showed left internal jugular vein thrombosis. The patient's condition improved after antibiotic medication and anticoagulation. The patient is currently in outpatient department follow-up and doing well. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of an internal jugular vein thrombosis secondary to acupuncture.

Purpose : To evaluate the late effect(3 and 6 months) of cis-diarnrninedichlo-roplatinum(II)(cisplatin) on the radiation brain damage when the cisplatin was intraperitoneally infused immediately after whole brain irradiation in the rats. Materials and Methods : The histolopathological findings of the brain were examined in rat brains at 3 and 6 months after the treatment. The rats were irradiated(20 or 22.5 Gy, RT) or cisplatin was injected intraperitoneally(2,4, or 8mg/kg, CT) and in combined treatment group, cisplatin(2mg/kg) was injected immediately after irradiation(20 or 22.5 Gr). Histopathological examination was done mostly in irradiation or cisplatin alone groups, because the rats in combined group died during experimental period except 2 rats. Results : The rats treated with cisplatin showed marked epithelial vacuolation with perivascular edema and vascular dilatation in choroid plexus at 3 months as well as multifocal necrosis involving fimbria and cerebellar hemispheres at 3 and 6 months. The changes were more prominent in rats with 2mg/kg injection compared to rats with 8mg/kg injection. The rats with RT and combined CT and RT showed characteristic delayed irradiation effects such as focal coagulation necrosis and vascular changes, which were more marked than previous reports Prominent perivascular and leptomenin-geal astrocytic Proliferation was well documented by anti-GFAP antibody. Cisplatin treatment did not enhance the effect of radiation-induced changes of blood vessels and astrocytic proliferation. Conclusion : The focal necrosis was the most consistently noted finding in this study, it suggested the possibility to use this as an evaluation factor for combined effects of RT and cisplatin.

The primary cause of hemoptysis is the bronchial artery. However, it should be noted that pulmonary artery and other vessels can cause hemoptysis. If the source of the bleeding is not determined after embolization, other evaluations are needed. Systemic-pulmonary anastomosis and pulmonary artery pseudo-aneurysm are rare vascular abnormalities with varying etiologies. An accurate and rapid diagnosis is needed in hemoptysis, since the cause may be life-threatening. We report a case of a 77-years-old man with persistent hemoptysis due to the right inferior phrenic artery - pulmonary artery anastomosis and pseudoaneurysm. After the embolization of the inferior phrenic artery, the hemoptysis was successfully treated.

Spinal epidural arteriovenous fistulas (SEDAVFs) are rare spinal vascular malformations that are difficult to diagnose and treat. SEDAVFs can be asymptomatic; however, symptoms can arise from the compression of adjacent nerve roots by dilated vein and perimedullary venous reflux, caused by shunting into the epidural venous plexus. A 31-year-old male presented to our institution with a 2-year history of progressively worsening low-back pain, radiating thigh pain, and sensory changes in his lower extremities. MRI and CT angiography demonstrated dilated epidural vascular lesion compressing the nerve root. The SEDAVF was embolized with multiple coils, which alleviated the nerve root compression from the engorged venous varix and improved the patient's radiculopathy. Our experience from this case shows that endovascular coil embolization using the transarterial approach can be an effective treatment for SEDAVF and an alternative to surgical ligations.

Aortic arch aneurysm generally requires an urgent treatment due to the risk of catastrophic aortic rupture. However conventional surgery for aortic arch repair still carries significant risks of postoperative morbidity and mortality, especially in patients with old age. In an effort to correct the aortic pathology while minimizing the risks of complication, we performed a hybrid technique which comprises the off pump arch aortic stent grafting in an 86-old male patient with an aortic arch aneurysm.
