Intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus (MV) is a life-threatening surgical emergency. Most events of MV occur in the neonatal period with bilious vomiting, abdominal distension, feeding intolerance, and bloody stools. Neonatal gastric perforation (GP) is a rare and life-threatening condition associated with high mortality. It occurs either in an idiopathic form or in association with gastrointestinal anomalies such as duodenal atresia and MV. The pathogenesis of both MV and GP is related to ischemic change and inflammatory response. MV and GP can lead to morbidities such as sepsis, intestinal ischemia, and organ failure, but not neurologic problems. We herein report the case of a term infant at 5 days after birth, with MV accompanied by GP, who developed periventricular leukomalacia.

A 12-year-old castrated male Persian cat presented with abdominal distension and anorexia. The radiography revealed ascites, pleural effusion, and a cranioventral mediastinal mass. Ultrasonography showed a well-defined mass lesion within a thickened ileal segment with a transmural loss of layering and multiple hyperechoic nodules arising from the peritoneum. Computed tomography showed peritoneal thickening with contrast enhancement, a bulky heterogeneous ileal mass, and mesenteric involvement with diffuse nodules. An alimentary lymphoma was confirmed by fine needle aspiration of the small intestinal mass. This report describes the imaging features of lymphoma with peritoneal lymphomatosis in a cat.

복부 팽만과 간헐적인 가벼운 좌측후지의 파행을 나타낸 11년령의 암컷 말티즈견이 내원하였다. 신체검사에서 복부 촉신 시 동통을 호소하였고 농성의 질 삼출물을 나타내었다. 혈액화학적 검사결과 독성변화를 동반한 심한 백혈구감소증, 질소혈증, 고인산혈증, 그리고 저나트륨혈증이 관찰되었다. 복부 방사선검사에서 소장을 앞쪽과 등쪽으로 변위시키는 연부조직음영의 관상구조를 가진 매스가 관찰되었고 복부 초음파검사에서 에코성의 물질이 함유된 종괴는 자궁음영으로 판단되어 자궁축농증으로 진단하였다. 후지의 방사선검사결과 양쪽 무릎에서 내측 슬개골탈구와 외측 종자뼈가 4-5 조각으로 분화된 다분화를 관찰하였다. 환자는 곧바로 난소자궁적출술을 받아 잘 회복되었으며 정상적인 혈액화학 수치를 보였다. 좌측 후지의 파행은 간헐적이고 매우 경미하였으므로 특별한 처치를 하지 않았다. 이후 지금까지 3개월동안 뚜렷한 후지파행은 관찰되지 않았다. 여러조각으로 갈라진 후지의 양측성 외측종자뼈는 선천적인 종자골 다분화로 여겨지며 파행과 직접적인 관련성은 없는 것으로 판단된다.

10년령의 중성화되지 않은 암컷 요크셔테리어가 심한 복부확장과 출혈성 삼출물에 대한 평가를 위해 내원하였다. 복부 방사선과 초음파 검사상에서 삼출물과 무에코의 낭성 구성물 들을 지닌 복강 내 종괴가 확인되었다. 복수의 세포검사에서 공포화된 세포질을 지닌 종양성 외피 세포들과 현저한 핵들이 관찰되었다. 자기공명영상에서는 잘 분획되고, 이질성의 큰 종괴가 복강 내를 채우고 있었다. 부검 상에서는 우측 난소로부터 유래한 큰 종괴가 관찰되었다. 조직병리학적 검사에서는 종양성 외피세포들로 이루어진 유두모양 구조들로 종괴가 구성되어있는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 환견은 임상 및 조직병리학적 소견들에 근거하여 유두모양의 악성 난소 샘암종으로 최종 진단되었다.

It is important to supply adequate nutrition to critically ill patients, whose gastrointestinal system is properly functioning, through the enteral tube feeding if oral intake is impossible. In this study we investigated the changes in nutritional status with enteral tube feeding according to the volume required. We investigated the volume ordered according to the patient's requirements, volume infused according to the volume ordered in 41 enteral tube feeding patients in intensive care unit from Jannuary to July, 2000. Body weight, serum albumin level, and total lymphocyte count were evaluated to assess nutritional status. The mean fasting period was 5 days before the enteral feeding and patients whose fasting period over 3 days were 51%. The mean enteral tube feeding period was 29 days and method of feeding was nasogastric, bolus feeding 6 times per day. The volume ordered was 69.7% of the patients' recommended calorie and volume infused was 86.6% of their volume prescribed. Accordingly, the volume infused was estimated 61.7% of their volume required. Only 44.6% of their reqiured volume was infused within 3 days after enteral tube feeding was started. It took 16 days in average to meet the patients' recommended calorie; 56% of subjects still did not fully met their requirements by the end point. Among the impeding factors in supplying enteral tube feeding, factors related to the number of feeding were high residual volume in stomach, vomiting, gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal distension and surgery. Factors related to the acctual infused volume were diarrhea, gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal distension, airway management and tube reinsertion. Significant correlations were shown between the volume infused and changes in both the patients' weight and serum albumin level. Deviding the subjects into two groups by their infused volume, less than 70% and more than that, we compared the two to come up with a significant difference in their serum albumin level, -0.23 vs 0.21, and their body weight, -4.52 vs 0.12. In enteral tube feeding, the volume delivered in sufficient to the pateints' energy requirement can affect their nutriitional status in critically ill patient; adequate nutritional management plan is essential. It is necessary to make every effort to educate clinical staff and to set up a unified management program to prescribe adequate ammount of energy for the patient's nutritional requirement.

Currarino syndrome is a hereditary syndrome characterized by the triad of a sacral bony defect, presacral mass and anorectal malformation. We retrospectively reviewed 13 Currarino syndrome patients who were treated in our center between 1997 and 2010. Demographic data, initial symptoms, initial diagnosis. pathologic diagnosis of presacral mass, associated anomalies and managements were analyzed. There were 8 boys and 5 girls. Four patients were diagnosed as Currarino syndrome immediately after birth with failure of passage of meconium and abdominal distension. Four patients underwent surgery for imperforate anus immediately after birth and W8re diagnosed as Currarino syndrome later and underwent reoperation. Three patients were diagnosed during work-up and management with of the tentative diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease. Diagnosis of the remaining two patients was at the age of 26 months and 9 years and anorectal malformation was not associated. Twelve patients showed hemi-sacrum and one patient showed bilateral sacral subtotal agenesis. Two patients without anorectal malformation underwent presacral mass excision, untethering of spinal cord and repair of myelomeningocele. Six out of 8 patients, excluding 3 that expired or were lost to follow up, with anorectal malformation underwent colostomy, presacral mass excision, untethering of spinal cord, repair of myelomeningocele, posterior sagittal anorectoplasty and colostomy repair. One patient underwent only posterior sagittal anorectoplasty after colostomy. One waits the scheduled operation only with Hegar dilatation. Pathologic examation of presacral masses showed myelomeningoceles in 4 patients, lipomyelomeningoceles in 3 patients and dermoid Cyst in one patient. Teratoma was combined in 2 patients. Eight patients needed neurosurgical operation for spinal cord problems. Seven patients had urologic anomalies and two of them underwent operation. Currarino syndrome should be considered as a differential diagnosis in pediatric patients with abdominal distension, constipation and anorectal malforlnation. For proper evaluation and treatment, a multi-disciplinary approach is recommended.
