Summary: We report the first hepatic adverse effect of tosufloxacin tosylate in a muscle invasive bladder cancer patient with normal liver functions and with scheduling to undergo a surgical operation for a neobladder. Tosufloxacin tosylate 150 mg was administered to a 57-year-old man who maintained transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) postoperative multiple medications. His labs presented significant increases in alanine amino transferase (ALT) and aspartate amino transferase (AST) levels with 2-week compliance of 150 mg tablet three times a day. After discontinuing tosufloxacin tosylate, the levels slowly decreased and completely returned to normal ranges without any intervention in a few weeks. The Naranjo Causality Algorithm indicates a probable relationship between increased ALT and tosufloxacin. The patient was to have the second surgical operation as scheduled after getting normal range of ATL level. Therefore, tosufloxacin should be avoided in patients at risk for having liver dysfunctions or diseases if the patients have a schedule for any operation. Background: Tosufloxacin tosylate has been shown to have favorable benefits as an antibiotic. Tosufloxacin tosylate may be considered to have the adverse effects such as nauseas, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, stomatitis, tendonitis, tendon rupture, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, insomnia, weakness, agitation including hemolysis in the event of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency as other fluoroquinolones. More severe adverse reactions of tosufloxacin tosylate over the above common adverse effects of fluoroquinolones were thrombocytopenia and nephritis. It also is not well known that tosufloxacin can cause hepatic problem. Here the study reports the first hepatic reaction from tosufloxacin and might arouse heath care providers' attention to appropriate drug choice for patients.

A six-year old bitch pregnant with prolonged gestation over about one month was ovariohysterectomied. The bitch was proved to be normal by physical and biochemical examination and had not a purulent vaginal discharge. A large firm mass was palpated in left caudoventral abdomen. Radiography identified the mass as a fetus. The abdominal ultrasono-graphy identified the fetus was dead. Caesarian section through the median raphe over linea alba was attempted. Adhensions were found between the uterus, stomach, spleen, urinary bladder, and abdominal viscera. Two fragments of bone were found in the abdominal cavity because of rupture of left uterine horn. Radiography and ultrasonography were proved to be of use to diagnose prolonged fetal mummification. Ovario-hysterectomy was considered to be choice of treatment to remove the prolonged mummified fetus.

Re-188 is suitable for endovascular liquid-balloon brachytherapy for the prevention of restenosis after angioplasty. Re-188 was concentrated to 3700 MBq/ml and labeled with DTPA. According to dosimetric calculation, it took 420 seconds using Re-188 solution with concentration of 3700 MBq/ml to irradiate 17.6 Gy to the target at 1 mm from the balloon surface. Software was made to estimate the irradiation time. MIRD calculation with dynamic bladder model yielded the whole body dose of Re-188-DTPA as 0.005 mGy/MBq in case of balloon rupture and release of the whole amount into the blood.

A hemangiosarcoma in a 30 kg, 6-year-old German Shepherd dog showing signs of abdominal distension, anorexia and depression was diagnosed with clinicopathologic examination, abdominal radiographs and ultrasonographic assessmint. In abdominal radiographs, overall abdominal distension was seen. Stomach and some parts of small intestines were deviated caudo-ventrally by enlarged liver. The splenomegaly was also identified and descending colon was dislocated laterally by splenic mass. In ultrasonographic findings, abdominal fluid was identified. Hepatomegaly was seen and it was consisted of multiple, anechoic cysts. The spleen was enlarged and a large round mass with mixed echo pattern at the mid to tail portion of spleen was identified. Grossly, at necropsy, multi-sized cysts in which contained blood and fibrpus materials and some blood were seen in the cross section and it showed hard consistency. Also, lots of small red tumor nodules were dispersed on the serosal surface of the bladder, omentum, mesentery, diaphragm and peritoneum. In abdominal paracentesis, fluid having almost the same properties as circulating blood was identified. The hemoperitoneum was thought to be resulted from the bleeding into peritoneum owing to the rupture of cystic lesions located on the superficial liver area.

Hepatic duct confluence injury, which is developed by blunt abdominal trauma, is rare. Conventionally, bile duct injury was treated by surgical intervention. In recent decades, however, there had been an increase in radiologic or endoscopic intervention to treat bile duct injury. In a hemodynamically stable patient, endoscopic intervention is considered as the first-line treatment for bile duct injury. A 40 year-old man was transferred to the emergency department of ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ trauma center after multiple blunt injuries. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography performed in another hospital showed a liver laceration with active arterial bleeding, fracture of the sacrum and left inferior pubic ramus, and intraperitoneal bladder rupture. The patient presented with hemorrhagic shock because of intra-peritoneal hemorrhage. After resuscitation, angiographic intervention was performed. After angiographic embolization of the liver laceration, emergency laparotomy was performed to repair the bladder injury. However, there was no evidence of bile duct injury on initial laparotomy. On post-trauma day (PTD) 4, the color of intra-abdominal drainage of the patient changed to a greenish hue; bile leakage was revealed on magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Bile leakage was detected near the hepatic duct confluence; therefore, a biliary stent was placed into the left hepatic duct. On PTD 37, contrast leakage was still detected but both hepatic ducts were delineated on the second ERCP. Stents were placed into the right and left hepatic ducts. On PTD 71, a third ERCP revealed no contrast leakage; therefore, all stents were removed after 2 weeks (PTD 85). ERCP and biliary stenting could be effective treatment options for hemodynamically stable patients after blunt trauma.

A Shihtzu (6-year-old, intact female) was referred to Konkuk University Teaching Animal Hospital for cystic calculus and hydronephrosis of right kiney. The dog was suspected to have ureteral rupture and peritonitis. Radiographic findings included cyctic calculi and right kidney enlargement. On ultrasonographic examination hyperechoic mass with severe acoustic shadowing was located in the right proximal ureter which was dilated. Hydronephrosis of the right kidney, right ureteral caculus and cytic calculus were confirmed by radiography and ultrasonography. Cystotomy for removal of calculus in the bladder and ureterotomy for removal of calculus in the right ureter were performed. Excretory urography (EU) performed one month after surgery revealed that the right ureter was homogeneously opacified and decreased to 3 to 6 mm in diameter. Surgical removal of ureteroliths was appropriate treatment for the ureteral and cystic calculi. The result suggests that ureterotomy is effective treament for the dilation and calculi of ureter.

목적 : 요로 감염이나 선천성 수신증, 기타 선천성 신장 질환이 있을 때 방광 요관 역류가 동반되는 수가 많다. 방광요도 조영 검사는 이를 확인하는 비교적 간단한 검사이나 검사 후 여러 불편감이나 합병증이 있어 환아들이 기피하는 검사 중의 하나이기도 하다. 따라서 저자들은 방광요도 조영 검사 후에 발생한 합병 증상의 종류와 빈도, 증상 지속 기간 등을 알아보기 위해 이 연구를 시행하였다. 방법 : 2005년 10월에서부터 2006년 9월까지 전북대학교병원 소아과에 내원하여 배뇨성 방광요도 조영술 및 방사선핵종 방광 조영술을 시행하였던 환아를 대상으로 전향적 조사를 하였다. 검사를 시행하게 된 원인 질환과 검사 방법, 검사 성공 여부, 최종 진단을 확인하였고, 1주일 경과 후 전화를 통한 설문 청취 방법으로 합병 증상의 종류와 지속 기간을 조사하였다. 결과 : 대상 환아 270명 중 1례에서는 도뇨관 삽입 실패로 검사를 시행하지 못하여 성공률은 99.6% 이었고, 검사를 받은 평균 연령은 $16.5{\pm}29.9$개월이었으며, 이 중 남아는 190명(70.6%), 여아는 79명(29.4%)이었다. 검사를 시행하게 된 원인 질환으로는 요로 감염 168명, 수신증 55명, 방광요관 역류로 인한 추적 검사 39명, 신무발육증 3명, 다발성 낭성 이형성 신 3명, 중복 요관 1명이었다. 269명의 환아 중 검사 시행 후 88명 (32.7%)에서 검사와 관련된 합병증을 보였고 증상 지속기간은 $1.4{\pm}0.7$일 이었다. 이 중 배뇨곤란의 경우가 49명(55.7%)으로 가장 많았고, 보챔 36명, 발열 11명, 빈뇨 8명, 육안적 혈뇨 4명 순이었다. 이외에도 심한 합병증인 요로 감염과 방광 천공도 각각 1명에서 발생하였다. 이러한 합병 증상은 연령이 증가하면서 호소 빈도가 증가하였고 (P<0.05), 검사 당시의 항생제 사용이 이러한 합병 증상의 빈도를 감소시키지는 않았다. 결론 : 소아에서 방광 요도술 검사는 간편하고 비교적 안전한 검사법으로 알려져 있으나 본 연구에서는 대상 환아의 약 1/3에서 합병 증상이 발생하였고 요로 감염과 방광 천자 같은 심한 합병증도 발생하였다. 따라서 방광요도 조영술 검사 시 이러한 합병 증상을 예방하기 위한 세심한 주의와 심각한 합병증이 발생한 경우에 신속한 처치가 필요할 것으로 보인다. 그러나 예방적 항생제 요법은 검사 후 발생하는 요로 감염이나 여러 증상을 줄이지는 못하여 이에 대한 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

A 1.86 kg, 3-year-old, female, Maltese was presented to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University after being hit by a car. The patient was diagnosed with urinary bladder rupture, diaphragmatic hernia and fracture of ilium, tibia and fibula. Repair surgery was performed after stabilizing treatment. During the surgery, hypoxia was identified and it worsened after positive pressure ventilation (partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood ($PaO_2$): 52 mmHg, pulse oximetry ($SpO_2$): 87%, arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation ($SpO_2$): 85.8%). In addition to hypoxia, blood pressure decreased to 30 mmHg. Positive pressure ventilation was discontinued because hypoxia and hypotension were aggravated. After suturing the diaphragm, air was withdrawn to form negative pressure within the thorax. However, negative pressure was not attained despite continuous withdrawal of air. A thoracostomy tube was placed because tension pneumothorax was strongly suspected. The patient recovered through close monitoring with the tube for 3 days. Due to limitation of evaluation of the lung, predicting occurrence of tension pneumothorax is difficult in patient of diaphragmatic hernia. Therefore, it is recommended that indicators of tension pneumothorax should be closely monitored during diagnosis and repair procedures of diaphragmatic hernia.
