  • A bronchial adenoma. being one of rare neoplastic diseases in children, was reported in a 4 year-old-male child. The tumor was located entirely intraluminal in the left main bronchus and was treated with left pneumonectomy because of the irreversible cystic changes were revealed throughout the left lung on open thoracotomy. The tumor was histologically confirmed to be a muco-epidermoid type of bronchial adenoma.

  • Oral mucosal lesions with a papillary or verrucous surface are a heterogenous group of conditions with widely varying clinical behaviour. The etiology is variable and includes infective, traumatic or neoplastic processes. The majority of these lesions are precanceous lesion. Therefore, a biopsy is required to establish a diagnosis and the microscopic examination must be coordinated with the clinical findings. This paper reviews the clinical features and significance of papillary or verrucous lesions.

  • Multiple myeloma is characterized by the neoplastic proliferation of a single clone of plasma cells producing a monoclonal immunoglobulin and it is frequently associated with primary amyloidosis. I experienced a medical claims review case of plasma cell dyscrasia with primary amyloidosis. This medical consulting work to insurance claims will be helpful for another similar claims administration.

  • Nephroblastoma of avian leukosis/sarcoma group was encountered in a Shaver pullet. The tumor, measuring $10{\times}5mm$ in base and 5 mm in height, was located on the surface of anterior lobe of the left kidney. The tumor mass was irregular in shape, firm in consistency and greyish white in color. Histologically, the neoplastic tissues consisted of embryonal uriniferous tubules and fibrosarcomatous stroma.

  • Although significant progress has been made during the past four decades in the treatment of human neoplastic disease, effective chemotherapeutic treatments are nevertheless far from satisfactory to patients suffering from cancer, particularly to those with the stomach cancer which is most prevalent in Korea. To find out the effective anticancer drugs, especially human stomach cancer, we tested cytotoxic activities of several medicinal herbs against human stomach cancer cell line, SNU-1. Evodia officinalis, Melia toosendan, Sinomenium acutum, Galla Haeepensis, Celastrus orbiculatus and Taxus caespitosa showed a significant cytotoxic activities.

  • Benign esophagobronchial fistula without esophageal atresia is a relatively rare disease. Fistula between the esophagus and bronchi may be congenital, traumatic, inflammatory or neoplastic. In our country, several case reports have been presented and the causes were either congenital, spontaneous, or inflammatory, such as, tuberculosis and diverticulum of esophagus. A 36 year old man experienced cough secondary to swallowing a Korean soup, frequent URIs and dyspnea. Esophagobronchial fistula was diagnosis by the esophagogram. Treatment was by resection with mid-lobectomy of the Rt. lung. After surgery, the patient`s general condition was stable.

  • Anaplastic transformation of differentiated thyroid cancer at distant metastatic sites is extremely rare and has a poor prognosis. It usually occurs in the thyroid gland or cervical lymph nodes. Here we report a case of anaplastic transformation arising at multiple distant metastatic sites including the lung, liver, adrenal gland, bone, and lymph nodes in a patient 3 years after total thyroidectomy for follicular thyroid cancer.

  • Barrett's esophagus is associated with an increased risk of adenocarcinoma. Thorough screening during endoscopic surveillance is crucial to improve patient prognosis. Detecting and characterizing dysplastic or neoplastic Barrett's esophagus during routine endoscopy are challenging, even for expert endoscopists. Artificial intelligence-based clinical decision support systems have been developed to provide additional assistance to physicians performing diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal endoscopy. In this article, we review the current role of artificial intelligence in the management of Barrett's esophagus and elaborate on potential artificial intelligence in the future.
