Cavernous lymphangioma is a benign tumor of lymphatic origin encountering most frequently in young children, and composed of softly fluctuated monolocular or multilocular cystic masses which developed from embryonic outpouching of the venous system. The prevailing site of this tumor Is at the anterolateral neck region particularly posterior triangle, and occasionally axillary, mesentery and spleen etc. Recently, we have experienced one case of left axillary cavernous lymphangioma, which surgically removed successfully and confirmed histopathologically. We want to report one case of left axillary large cavernous lymphangioma with a brief review of the relevant literatures.

Despite the improved diagnostic and treatment modalities recently introduced for a variety of esophageal disorders, a perforation or leak from the esophagus remains a sources of morbidity and mortality regardless of the cause of leak. After the perforation of esophagus, the contamination of mediastinum and pleural cavity with food, bacteria and corrosive gastric juice leads to sepsis and cardiopulmonary dysfunction. The early diagnosis and early treatment are very important, and the delayed treatment leads to high risk of morbidity and mortality. We experienced one case of esophageal perforation, after forced vomiting in 48 years old male patient. We used omentum on the treatment of ruptured esophagus, and it was successfully managed.

염증성 근섬유 아세포종은 주로 어린이와 젊은 성인에서 발생하는 고형 종양으로, 고립성 폐 결절의 약 0.7%를 차지한다. 1937년 처음으로 폐에서 발생한 예가 보고된 이후 장간막(mesentery)이나 심장 식도 부위(cardioesophageal region)에 발생한 것들이 보고되고 있다. 이것은 조직학적으로는 양성이지만 국소 침습성과 재발성 때문에 악성을 완전히 배제하기 어렵다. 최근 본 병원에서 좌측 폐에 발생한 염증성 근섬유 아세포종을 수술적 절제후 재발 소견 없이 추적 관찰 중이다.

자석을 삼킨 소아가 방문한 경우, 위안에 있으면 내시경을 통해 제거하는 것이 필요하며, 위유문부를 이미 통과한 후에 자석이 계속 같은 위치에 있거나 장천공 또는 폐쇄와 같은 합병증이 발생하면 수술적으로 이물을 제거하여야 한다. 저자들은 삼킨 자석 5개로 인하여 소장 내 누공이 형성되어 수술을 시행하였던 드문 례를 문헌 고찰과 더불어 보고하는 바이다.

6 년령의 수컷 시츄 견이 복부 팽만을 주 호소로 내원하였다. 복부 방사선 검사와 초음파 검사에서 많은 양의 액체를 포함하고 있는 연부조직 밀도의 종괴가 발견되었다. 종괴의 세포학적 검사를 위해 초음파 유도 세침흡인을 실시하였으며, 세포학적 검사 결과 섬유화가 동반된 육아조직이 의심되었다. 종괴의 확인과 수술적 제거를 위해 진단적 개복술을 실시하였다. 개복시 원위 공장부위에 인접한 장간막의 뿌리에서 유래한 종괴가 확인되었고 종괴는 원위공장 부위에 부착되어 있었다. 종괴와 부착 부위의 분리가 어려웠기 때문에 종괴와 부착 부위를 모두 수술적으로 제거하였으며 장문합술을 실시하였다. 종괴의 조직병리학적 검사 결과 저 악성도 점액육종이 진단되었으며, 종양 세포는 알시안 블루 염색에 양성 반응을 보였다. 추가로 실시한 Ki67 항체를 이용한 면역조직화학 염색 결과 Ki-67 지수는 2.5 였다. 환축은 절제술 실시 후 현재까지 30개월 동안 전이와 재발의 증거 없이 살고 있다.

Mesenteric and omental cysts are rare intra-abdominal lesions in childhood, and may present various clinical features such as an asymptomatic mass or an acute abdomen. Therefore, these entities are frequently misdiagnosed preoperatively or are found only incidentally at operation for other conditions. We analyzed our experiences of 19 cases in a 19 year period from 1981 to 1999, at College of Medicine, Catholic University of Korea. There were 12 boys and 7 girls with a mean age of 4.8 years (range, 3 days to 15 years). Common presenting symptoms were abdominal pain (47%), abdominal distension (31%), abdominal mass (24%), vomiting (15%) and fever (10%). Ultrasonography was the most preferred method of diagnosis. Other diagnostic modalities include CT, MRI, and abdominal ascites tapping in selected patients. Location of the mesenteric cysts was small bowel mesentery in nine, the right mesocolon and retroperitoneum in one, the left mesocolon in one, and the jejunum, sigmoid-colon mesentery in one. Most of the patients underwent cyst excision, but six patients required concomitant bowel resection for complete removal of the lesions, and two patients underwent unroofing and simple aspiration respectively. There was one mortality case due to sepsis.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of total laparoscopic total gastrectomy without mesentery division (LTG without MD) and conventional total laparoscopic total gastrectomy (CLTG), as well as evaluate the appropriate method for esophagojejunostomy (EJ) reconstruction after total laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 301 consecutive patients who underwent TLTG for upper or middle third gastric cancer between January 2016 and May 2019. After propensity score matching, 95 patients who underwent LTG without MD and 95 who underwent CLTG were assessed. Data on clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes, including operation time, length of postoperative hospital stay, pathological findings, and postoperative complications were analyzed. Results: The LTG without MD group showed a shorter time to first flatus (3.26±0.80 vs. 3.62±0.81 days, P=0.003) and a shorter time to soft diet (2.80±2.09 vs. 3.52±2.20 days, P=0.002). The total EJ-related complications in the LTG without MD group were comparable to those in the CLTG group (9.47% vs. 3.16%, P=0.083). EJ-related leakage (6.32% vs. 3.16%, P=0.317) and EJ-related stricture (3.16% vs. 1.05%, P=0.317) rates were not significantly different between the LTG without MD and CLTG groups. No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of other early surgical outcomes such as early complications, late complications, hospital stay, and readmission rate. Conclusions: LTG without MD is a safe surgical treatment for upper or middle third gastric cancer. LTG without MD may be an alternative procedure for EJ anastomosis during TLTG.

A 6-year-old, neutered male, Schnauzer was presented with a one year history of weight loss and exercise intolerance. Physical examination revealed abdominal distention and ecchymosis on the abdominal skin. CBC and serum chemistry profiles revealed anemia and increased serum liver enzymes. Ultrasonography revealed a large liver mass which was characterized by multiple hypoechoic lesions. Postmortem examination revealed primary hepatic hemangiosarcoma. The tumor had extended to the mesentery and diaphragm, but distant metastasis was not found. This case report describes primary hepatic hemangiosarcoma which is very rare in a dog.

This paper describes a method for recognizing and measuring the motion of each individual leukocyte in microvessel from a sequence of images. A spatiotemporal image is generated whose spatial axes are parallel and vertical to vessel region contours. In order to enhance and extract only leukocyte traces with a turned velocity range even under noisy background, we use a combination of a filtering process using Gabor filters with sharp orientation selectivity and a subsequent 3D spatiotemporal grouping process. The proposed method is shown to be effective by experiments using image sequences of two kinds of microcirculation, rat mesentery microvessels and human retinal capillaries.

Cystic hygroma is a benign tumor of lymphatic origin encountering most frequently in young children, and composed of softly fluctuated mono or multilocular cystic masses which developed from embryonic outpouching of the venous system. The majority of these tumors are found at the anterolateral neck region particularly posterior .triangle, and occasionaly axilla, mesentery and spleen etc. In the mediastinum, the incidence of hygroma is very rare and also of mediastinal neoplasms. Recently, we have experienced 2 cases of mediastinal cystic hygroma connected up lateral neck and to anterior chest wall respectively, which were surgically removed successfully and confirmed histopathologically. Authors present the cases and discussion with a brief review of the relevant literatures.
