Backgrounds/Aims: To analyze relationships of hepatic histopathological findings and bile microbiological profiles with perioperative outcomes and risk of late biliary stricture in individuals undergoing surgical bile duct injury (BDI) repair. Methods: A historical cohort study was carried out at a tertiary university hospital. Fifty-six individuals who underwent surgical BDI repair from 2014-2018 with a minimal follow-up of 24 months were enrolled. Liver biopsies were performed to analyze histopathology. Bile samples were collected during repair procedures. Hepatic histopathological findings and bile microbiological profiles were then correlated with perioperative and late outcomes through uni- and multi-variate analyses. Results: Forty-three individuals (76.8%) were females and average age was 47.2 ± 13.2 years; mean follow-up was 38.1 ± 18.6 months. The commonest histopathological finding was hepatic fibrosis (87.5%). Bile cultures were positive in 53.5%. The main surgical technique was Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy (96.4%). Overall morbidity was 35.7%. In univariate analysis, liver fibrosis correlated with the duration of the operation (R = 0.3; p = 0.02). In multivariate analysis, fibrosis (R = 0.36; p = 0.02) and cholestasis (R = 0.34; p = 0.02) independently correlated with operative time. Strasberg classification independently correlated with estimated bleeding (R = 0.31; p = 0.049). The time elapsed between primary cholecystectomy and BDI repair correlated with hepatic fibrosis (R = 0.4; p = 0.01). Conclusions: Bacterial contamination of bile was observed in most cases. The degree of fibrosis and cholestasis correlated with operative time. The waiting time for definitive repair correlated with the severity of liver fibrosis.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of fascioliasis in slaughtered cattle in Kangwon (Wonju, Hoengseong, Hongcheon, Cheorwon, Pyeongchang) province and Daejeon from October to December in 2014. From the total 10,780 examined cattle, 0.54% (58/10,780) were found to be positive for fascioliasis by postmortem macroscopic inspection. The Fasciola spp. infection rates were higher in the most Daejeon (1.83%, 41/2,240), followed by Hoengseong (0.40%, 15/3,714) and Hongcheon (0.22%, 2/901). It was not infected in the other regions. The outward appearances of Fasciola spp. infected livers looked almost normal and the worms were all parasitize in the main hepatic duct.

In order to study the effects of administration of carbon tetrachloride(CCI$_4$) and 1-naphthylisothiocyanate(ANIT) on the liver of Korean black goats, some liver function tests and liver biopsy were done on 4 Korean black goats dosed with CCI$_4$(0.4m1/kg of body weight) in-traruminally and 4 Korean black goats dosed with ANIT(400mg/kg of body weight) by stomach tube. BSP Tl/2 and serum total bilirubin concentration in goats dosed with CCI$_4$ were increased gradually, reached to maximum value on 2nd and 1st day, respectively, and then began to decrease in normal range, gradually. In goats dosed with ANIT, BSP Tl/2 and serum total bilirubin concentration were increased rapidly, reached to maximum value on 0.5 and 1st day, respectively, and then returned to normal ragne, rapidly. Serum SDH, AST and GGT activities in goats dosed with CCI$_4$ were increased rapidly and reached to maximum value on 3rd, 1st and 2nd day, respectively. Thereafter, the serum enzyme activities began to decrease in normal range gradually. In goats dosed with ANIT, however, serum SDH, AST and GGT activities were not changed. The histopathologic changes in goats dosed with CCI$_4$ were lipidosis and centrilobular nee-rosis of the hepatic parenchyma. In goats dosed with ANIT, hyperplasia of bile duct epithelium was noticeable, but pathologic changes in liver parenchyma were not noticed. Conclusively, in Korean black goats dosed with CCI$_4$, main finding was necrosis of hepatic parenchyma. In Korean black goats dosed with ANIT, main finding was cholestasis.

Liver is generally known as an organ which is most commonly involved by the metastic tumors. According to the tendency of using fine needle aspiration in the diagnosis of hepatic tumors, the differentital diagnosis between hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic carcinoma frequently has been a main issue in the poorly differentitated cases, especially to the pathologists of Korea, an endemic area of hepatocellular carcinoma. Until now the problem has been usually solved by the comparison of cytologic characteristics of their tumor cells but not by background cytologic features which rarely have been studied. We observed the background cytologic features helpful for the differential diagnosis through the analysis of 20 cases who had confirmed primary cancer and were diagnosed as metastatic carcinomas in the liver by fine needle aspiration cytology. Twenty cases included 9 adenocarcinomas, 7 spuamous cell carcinomas, 1 small cell carcinoma, 1 carcinoid, 1 adenoid cystic carcinoma, and 1 renal cell cacinoma. Analysis of background cytologic features revealed that 77% of adenocacinoma cases showed benign mesenchymal components and hepatocytes and spuamous cell carcinoma cases disclosed benign mesenchymal tissue (71%) and necrosis (57%), Remaining cases showed variable combinations of benign mesenchymal component, necrosis, hepatocytes, and bile duct epithelial cells. No case revealed atypical hepatocytic naked nuclei, a useful cytologic finding of hepatocellular carcinoma. In summary, the background cytologic features more commonly observed in metastatic carcinomas than in the hepatocellular carcinoma were benign mesenchymal components, hepatocytes, necrosis, and bile duct epithelium. The endothelial cells and hepatocytic naked nuclei, two relatively specific findings of hepatocellular carcinoma were not observed except for renal ceil carcinoma. Above background cytologic features are thought to be helpful for the differential diagnosis between the hepatocellular carcinoma and various metastatic carcinomas in the poorly differentiated cases.

목 적: 신생아 담즙정체증은 소아과 소화기 영역에서 중요한 질환의 하나임에도 불구하고 원인 질환 및 장기추적 고찰에 대한 국내의 보고가 드문 실정이다. 따라서 저자들은 신생아 담즙정체증의 원인 및 추적조사시의 합병증 등의 임상적 고찰과 함께 예후인자를 분석하여 신생아 담즙정체증 환아의 진료에 도움을 주고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 1981년부터 1992년까지 12년간 신생아 혹은 초기 영아기에 발생한 담즙정체증으로 서울대학교 어린이병원 소아과에 입원하였던 190명을 대상으로 하였다. 담즙정체증의 원인질환, 추적조사시에 관찰된 합병증 및 사인, 특발성신생아간염과 담도폐쇄증의 초기의 임상적 차이점, 예후 및 예후 인자를 분석하였다. 결 과: 1) 담즙정체증의 원인질환은 190명에서 신생아 간염이 101례(53%), 간외담도계 질환이 84례(44%), 간내담도형성부전증이 5례(3%)이었다. 신생아간염은 특발성신생아간염이 77례(41%), 감염성 신생아 간염이 24례(12%)이었고, 간외담도질환은 담도폐쇄증이 79례(41%), 총수담관낭이 5례(3%)이었다. 2) 추적조사시에 관찰된 주요한 임상적 문제점은 지속적인 고열, 위장관출혈, 간성혼수, 복수 등이었다. 3) 담도폐쇄증 환아에서 지속적인 고열의 원인은 상행성담관염, 혹은 line-related sepsis가 58%이었고, 폐렴이 15%, 요로감염이 8%, 상기도 감염이 7%이었다. 4) 상행성담관염 혹은 line related sepsis의 원인균은 Escherichia coli가 28%로 가장 빈도가 많았고, Coagulase negative staphylococcus가 14%, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Klebsiela pneumoniae가 각각 10%, Enterococcus가 6%, Candida albicans가 4%이었다. 5) 주요한 사인은 간성혼수와 위장관출혈이었다. 6) 특발성신생아간염은 71%, 감염성 신생아간염은 75%의 환아에서 회복되었으며, 대부분 생후 12개월 이내, 주로 6개월 이내에 회복되었다. 미숙아, 초기의 간종대가 작은 경우, 초기 알부민치 높은 경우, 콜레스테롤치, ${\gamma}$-GT치, 빌리루빈치 및 AST치가 낮은 경우에서 예후가 양호하였다. 7) 담도폐쇄증 환아의 Kasai수술후의 5년 생존율은 40%이었고 사망의 대부분은 12개월 이내에 관찰되었다. 가장 중요한 예후인자는 수술시기이었고 수술시기가 12주 이전인 49%가 양호한 예후를 보인 반면에, 12주 이후인 경우는 12%이었다. 8) 담즙정체증의 초기 임상소견중 가장 중요한 예후인자는 원인질환이었다. 9) 특발성신생아간염과 담도폐쇄증 사이에서 차이를 보인 임상소견은 성별, 제태연령, 콜레스테롤 치 및 ${\gamma}$-GT치 이었다. 특발성신생아간염은 남아, 미숙아에서 호발하였고, 낮은 콜레스테롤치 및 ${\gamma}$-GT치를 보였다. 결 론: 우리나라에서 신생아 담즙정체증의 흔한 원인으로는 담도폐쇄증과 특발성신생아간염의 빈도가 가장 높았고, 이외에 감염성 신생아 간염, 총수담관낭, Alagille 증후군 등이었으며, 유전성, 대사성질환은 관찰되지 않았다. 신생아 담즙정체증에서 원인질환은 예후를 결정하는 가장 중요한 요인으로 원인질환에 대한 적절한 진단이 요구되며, 또한 상행성 담관염, 폐렴, 패혈증 등의 감염문제, 간성혼수, 위장관 출혈 등은 장기 추적시의 자주 발생하는 심각한 임상적 문제점으로서 이에 대한 적절한 치료대책이 요구된다고 하겠다.
