A male German Shepherd dog, $2{\frac{1}{2}}$years of age, was admitted with sudden anemia, weakness, hyperpyrexia, anorexia and lethargy. The patient showed hypoplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia, absolute and relative lymphocytosis, absolute and relative granulocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, slight hepatic disorder, slight azotemia, hematuria and proteinuria by the screening examination. The bone marrow aspiration smear showed high cellularity, severs infiltration of lymphoblasts and prolymphocytes, and mitotic figures of lymphoid cells. The liver aspiration smear demonstrated infiltration of lymphoblasts. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia was diagnosed as none of the superficial lymph nodes showed enlargement and marked functional disorder of important organs other than the liver was not found. The patient was treated with vincristine, cyclophophamide, predniosolone for chemotherapy and blood transfusion and either ampicillin or cefoperazone for supportive treatment. But the patient did not show marked remission and died 9 days after the start of the chemptherapy. The necropsy was not permitted.

최근 동위원소를 이용한 뼈 스캔 (Bone Scan)검사 후 골밀도 (BMD; Bone Mineral Density)검사를 당일검사로 병행한 경우 이로 인한 골밀도 측정값에 오차 발생 가능성이 제기되고 있으나 방사성의약품 표지화합물 투여 후 이중에너지 X선을 이용한 골밀도 측정값 변화에 대한 임상적 자료가 미비하여 핵의학 체내검사 후 당일 골다공증 검사의 측정값에 대한 논란의 소지가 있다. 따라서 동위원소 표지화합물인 $^{99m}Tc-MDP$가 골밀도 측정값에 영향을 미치는지 임상적 측면에서 실험하였다. 실험에 참가한 대상자의 평균 나이는 $35.17{\pm}9.45$세로 실험 대상자 17명 중 대사성 질환과 골밀도 측정에 영향을 줄 수 있는 허리뼈 압박골절 및 몸쪽 넓적다리뼈 골절이 있는 자를 제외한 12명 중 정상 골밀도 T-scores>-1.0의 환자 6명을 대상으로 $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ 투여 전 후 측정값을 분석한 결과 허리뼈에서 전 후 각각 평균 $0.975{\pm}0.084g/cm^2$, $0.966{\pm}0.078g/cm^2$으로 $0.009g/cm^2$ 증가, 우측 몸쪽 넓적다리뼈에서는 전 후 각각 평균 $0.909{\pm}0.078g/cm^2$, $0.913{\pm}0.086g/cm^2$으로 $0.004g/cm^2$ 감소, 좌측 몸쪽 넓적다리뼈에서는 각각 평균 $0.887{\pm}0.099g/cm^2$, $0.881{\pm}0.103g/cm^2$으로 $0.007g/cm^2$의 증가를 보여 몸쪽 넓적다리뼈 보다 허리뼈에서 더 큰 골밀도 변화를 보여주었다. 그러나 허리뼈와 몸쪽 넓적다리뼈 전체에서 전 후 변화 평균은 $0.0038{\pm}0.014g/cm^2$으로 골밀도 측정값에 유의한 영향이 없음을 알 수 있으며, 또한 두 실험간 전체 상관계수는 0.987으로 방사성동위원소 표지화합물인 $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ 투여가 골밀도 측정값에 영향을 주지 않았다. 따라서 140 keV의 감마선 에너지를 방출하는 테크네슘 표지화합물을 이용한 뼈 스캔검사 후 골밀도 측정값에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않음을 확인하였다. 그러나 핵의학적 체내검사와 골다공증 검사를 당일로 검사함으로 인한 환자의 피폭을 고려한다면 시간 간격을 두고 검사를 시행하는 것이 좋을 것으로 사료된다.

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of platelet rich plasma in bone formation and osseointegration of implant installed in the bone marrow space. Materials and Methods: Five beagle dogs were used as experimental animals. Two implants were installed on each tibia in the dogs. Implants of the control group were installed with no additional graft. Those of the experimental group 1 were installed with autogenous bone graft from the ilium autogenous bone. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) alone was used in experimental group 2 and the mixture of PRP and autogenous bone was used in experimental group 3. The animals were sacrificed at 8 weeks after implantation. The parts of tibia containing implant were harvested and radiographs were taken for radiographic examination. The specimens were prepared for histological examination and histomorphometric analysis of implant-bone contact ratios. Results: 1. All implants showed sufficient osseointegration in the cortical bone radiographically and histologically, but osseointergration in the marrow space was not satisfactory. 2. Histomorphometrically, the implant-bone contact ratios in the bone marrow was sequentially high in the experimental group 3 (autogenous bone + PRP group), group 1 (autogenous bone group), group 2 (PRP group), and control group (non-additive). 3. It was verified that there was statistical significance between two experimental groups (group 1 and 3) and the other groups (group 2 and control group). (P<0.005) 4. However, there was no statistical significance between group 3 and group 1, also group 2 and control group respectively. Conclusion: These results suggest that platelet rich plasma is effective to osseointegration in the implant installation but there is no statistical significance.

Leukemia in pregnancy was first reported by Virchow in 1845, and acute Leukemia that occurs with pregnancy is extremely rare. About 350 pregnancies with leukemia have been reported in literature. The incident of acute leukemia during pregnancy has been reported in one case per 100,000 pregnancies case. A 40-year-old patient with 30 weeks of pregnancy, (by promyelocyte which is contained granules and auer rods in the bone marrow and biopsy) was diagnosed with acute promyelocyte leukemia WITH t (15;17) (q22;q12); PML-RARA. (M3) in peripheral blood and bone marrow examination, and gave a birth to the fetus normally, January 24, 2013, after receiving the complete remission decision from the bone marrow, complete blood cell count, PML-RARA PCR test, showed normal findings until March 2013. The treatment of acute leukemia during pregnancy should be considered as treatment of a pregnant mother and the impact on the fetus. Decisions about when and how birth takes place is difficult and has to consider both mother and fetus. It is preferable to start immediate treatment without delay so that the treatment time to achieve complete remission or full recovery of the pregnant mother is longer.

Feline chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a rare disease. Its diagnosis is not simple because of the absence of clinical signs and the presence of mature lymphocytosis. An 11-year-old female spayed Russian Blue cat was referred to the veterinary medical teaching hospital for lethargy, diarrhea, weight loss, and inappetence. Marked lymphocytic leukocytosis and a significantly increased number of small-to-intermediate-sized lymphocytes in the peripheral blood were found on hematological examination. The results of the feline leukemia virus and immunodeficiency virus test were negative. Further, mild splenomegaly was detected. Bone marrow aspirate analysis revealed mature lymphocytosis and a clonally rearranged T cell receptor gene with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for antigen receptor rearrangement assay. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping showed a homogeneous population of CD5+/CD21-T-cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow. According to the results of the aforementioned examinations, CLL was diagnosed. Treatment was not initiated at the time of diagnosis because the clinical signs were mild and did not affect the quality of life. This report describes the clinical findings and use of advanced diagnostic tools such as molecular clonality analysis and immunophenotyping for the diagnosis of feline CLL.

A 13-year-old neutered male mixed-breed dog presented with generalized lymphadenopathy and erythematous cutaneous lesions in the ear pinnae. Fine-needle aspiration cytology of the lymph nodes revealed small to intermediate lymphocytes with a "hand mirror" configuration as the predominant cell type. Histopathological analysis of the lymph node showed an infiltrate of CD3-positive small lymphocytes compressing the follicles against the capsule owing to neoplastic cell expansion. Flow cytometric analysis revealed a homogeneous population of CD3+/CD4-/CD5+/CD8-/CD21+/CD34-/CD45- cells in both the peripheral blood and aspirated lymph nodes, which supports the diagnosis of T-zone lymphoma. Laboratory tests revealed lymphocytosis (14,144 cells/µL) in the peripheral blood. However, contrary to expectations, the bone marrow examination revealed no evidence of lymphocytic infiltration. T-zone lymphoma is an indolent lymphoma with a long survival period, and knowledge of its characteristics may affect disease staging and prognosis evaluation. Therefore, peripheral blood count as a sole screening tool for bone marrow metastasis should be used with caution.

Purpose: This study was performed in order to compare the osseointegration of 4 different surfaced implants in the dog's tibia which has thick dense cortical bone and loose marrow space. Materials & methods: Four mongrel dogs and four different surface types of implants, smooth surfaced AVANA implants, RBM surfaced AVANA implants, HA-coated Steri-Oss implants and SLA Bicon implants, were used in this study. The animals were divided into 4 groups on the basis of implant surface characteristics: Control group, RBM group, HA group, and SLA group. Three implants of each group were installed into the metaphysis of tibia of adult dogs. The animals were sacrificed at 8 weeks after implantation. The undecalcified specimens were prepared for histological examination and histomorphometric analysis of implant-bone contact ratios. Results: Radiographically and histologically good osseointegration of implant was observed in the dense cortical bone, but poor osseointegration was observed in the marrow space. Histologically more bone apposition to implant surface was found in rough surfaced groups than the smooth surfaced, Control group. In histomorphometric findings of cortical bone the average bone-implant contact ratios of HA group (95.4%, p<0.01), RBM group (87.1%, p<0.05), and SLA group (86.0%, p<0.05) were significantly higher than that of Control group (75.9%). In marrow space the average bone-implant contact ratios of HA group (76.1%, p<0.01) and SLA group (45.4%, p<0.05) were significantly higher than that of Control group (29.6%). The ratio of RBM group was higher than that of Control group but there was no significantly difference between RBM group and Control group. Conclusion: These results suggest that the rough surfaced implants can obtain the better osseointegration than the smooth surfaced implant in the cortical and marrow space and that HA-coated implants can obtain the best osseointegration in the marrow space among them.

A 13-year-old neutered male Maltese dog presented to our hospital with lethargy and anorexia. Laboratory abnormalities included severe non-regenerative anemia (hematocrit, 12.9%; reticulocyte count 12.8 K/µL). The cytology of bone marrow revealed erythroid hypercellularity with mild myelofibrosis. Therefore, late-stage precursor-targeted immune-mediated anemia (PIMA) was diagnosed. Multimodal treatment including 2 immunosuppressant drugs (prednisolone and mycophenolate mofetil), antithrombic drug (clopidogrel), and blood transfusion was performed. The dog showed complete remission from PIMA, and the total duration of follow-up was 622 days. This is the first case report of canine PIMA managed successfully with prednisolone and mycophenolate mofetil in Korea.

Objective : In this study, the authors assessed the ability of rat bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMDMSCs), in the presence of a growth factor, fibroblast growth factor-4 (FGF-4) and hydroxyapatite, to act as a scaffold for posterolateral spinal fusion in a rat model. Methods : Using a rat posterolateral spine fusion model. the experimental study comprised 3 groups. Group 1 was composed of 6 animals that were implanted with 0.08 gram hydroxyapatite only. Group 2 was composed of 6 animals that were implanted with 0.08 gram hydroxyapatite containing $1{\times}10^6/60{\mu}L$ rat of BMDMSCs. Group 3 was composed of 6 animals that were implanted with 0.08 gram hydroxyapatite containing $1{\times}10^6/60{\mu}L$ of rat BMDMSCs and FGF-4 $1{\mu}G$ to induce the bony differentiation of the BMDMSCs. Rats were assessed using radiographs obtained at 4, 6, and 8 weeks postoperatively. After sacrifice, spines were explanted and assessed by manual palpation, high-resolution microcomputerized tomography, and histological analysis. Results : Radiographic, high-resolution microcomputerized tomographic, and manual palpation revealed spinal fusion in five rats (83%) in Group 2 at 8 weeks. However, in Group 1, three (60%) rats developed fusion at L4-L5 by radiography and two (40%) by manual palpation in radiographic examination. In addition, in Group 3, bone fusion was observed in only 50% of rats by manual palpation and radiographic examination at this time. Conclusion : The present study demonstrates that 0.08 gram of hydroxyapatite with $1{\times}10^6/60{\mu}L$ rat of BMDMSCs induced bone fusion. FGF4, added to differentiate primitive $1{\times}10^6/60{\mu}L$ rat of BMDMSCs did not induce fusion. Based on histologic data, FGF-4 appears to induce fibrotic change rather than differentiation to bone by $1{\times}10^6/60{\mu}L$ rat of BMDMSCs.
