  • In the literatual studies on the pruritic dermatoses, the results were as follows. 1. In Oriental medicine, Pruritic dermatoses is belong to the cartegory of the 'Pung- soyang(風瘙痒)', 'Pungyang(風痒)', 'Yangpung(痒風)', 'Sinyang(身痒)' etc. 2. Pruritic dermatoses is occurring idiopathically without primary lesion, marked by intense itching. 3. The pathogenic factors of Pruritic dermatoses is divided two parts. One is exo- genous pathogenic factors which including the wind-cold and wind-heat The other is endogenous pathogenic factors which including the blood-deficiency, the blood-heat, the wetness-heat of liver & gallbladder, the spleen-asthenia and impairment of the liver & kidney etc. 4. In the prescription of Pruritic dermatoses, it was used Gyejimahwanggakbantang(桂枝麻黃各半湯) in exogenous pathogenic factors, was used Danggyiyumja(當歸飮子), Sopungsan(消風散), Bangpungtongsungsan(防風通聖散), Yanghyulyunbuyum(養血潤膚飮) etc.

  • Acute cholecystitis represents an acute inflammation of the gallbladder, caused in most instances by obstruction of the cystic duct, resulting in acute inflammation of the GB wall. Acute cholecystitis usually occurs with right upper quadrant pain and tenderness. This study was designed to evaluated of oriental medicine on acute cholecystitis. The patient who were suffering from acute cholecystitis was treated with herbal medicine such as Gagamsaenggan-tang. After using Gagamsaenggan-tang, we could find remarkable effect on clinical symtoms and lap findings and Abdominipelvic Ultrasonography study. According to results we suggest oriental medical treatment was effective for this patient with acute cholecystitis, but more extensive research is needed.

  • A 13-year-old female Poodle presented with gallbladder rupture caused by a mucocele and hypoperfusion. The animal had a thermal burn injury caused by a forced-air warming device used for hypothermia during surgery. This could be attributed to two causes. First, the forced-air warming device was used with direct hosing, without attachment to an air blanket, and the heat was concentrated in a single area. Second, perioperative peripheral hypoperfusion hampered heat dissipation and increased the susceptibility to a burn injury. These findings suggest that an air blanket should be used with a forced-air warming device according to the manufacturer's instructions. Furthermore, patients with peripheral hypoperfusion are at a higher risk of burn injuries and require close monitoring.

  • Edwardsiella (E) tarda belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family and is a motile, gram-negative, rod-shaped, facultative anaerobe regarded as an opportunistic and food-borne pathogen in animals and humans. A 21-year-old male Eurasian brown bear (Ursus arctos arctos) died suddenly without any preliminary signs. Necropsy performed according to standard protocol revealed swollen abdomen with hemorrhagic congestions of the gastroenteric organs, ascites, and hemorrhagic exudates around the mouth. The liver showed discoloration, along with a severely swollen and multiple hemorrhages of the spleen, an elongated gallbladder, and a congested cortex and medullar lesion of kidneys. The stomach contained semi-liquid exudates and undigested chicken exuding a decayed odor. The stomach membranes were dark-gray in color with several cysts in the fundus lesions. Rod-shaped bacteria were found in the major organs by Giemsa staining, identified as E. tarda using a biochemical rapid diagnostic identification kit.

  • Malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHO), an aggressive perihilar biliary obstruction caused by cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder cancer, or other metastatic malignancies, has a poor prognosis. Surgical resection is the only curative treatment for biliary malignancies. However, the majority of patients with MHO cannot undergo surgery on presentation because of an advanced inoperable state or a poor performance state due to old age or comorbid diseases. Therefore, palliative biliary drainage is mandatory to improve symptomatic jaundice and the quality of life. Among the drainage methods, endoscopic biliary drainage is the current standard for palliation of unresectable advanced MHO. In addition, combined with endoscopic drainage, additional local ablation therapies, such as photodynamic therapy or radiofrequency ablation (RFA), have been introduced to prolong stent patency and survival. Currently, RFA is commonly used as palliative therapy, even for advanced MHO. This literature review summarizes recent studies on RFA for advanced MHO.

  • Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided interventions have evolved rapidly in recent years, with dedicated metal stents playing a crucial role in this process. Specifically, the invention of biflanged short metal-covered stents, including lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS), and modifications in a variety of tubular self-expandable metal stents (SEMS), have led to innovations in EUS-guided interventions. LAMS or non-LAMS stents are commonly used in the EUS-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections, especially in cases of walled-off necrosis. Additionally, LAMS is commonly considered for drainage of the EUS-guided gallbladder or dilated common bile duct and EUS-guided gastroenterostomy. Fully or partially covered tubular SEMS with several new designs are being considered for EUS-guided biliary drainage. This review focuses on advances in SEMS for EUS-guided interventions and discusses related research results.
