5일령 한우 송아지가 식욕부진, 배변불능, 침울, 복부팽만으로 내원하였다. 결장폐쇄로 잠정진단하고 폐쇄 부위와 양태를 확인하기 위해 단순촬영과 조영촬영을 실시하였다. 단순촬영상에서 대장이 가스로 확장되어 있었으나 하행결장 내에 변은 존재하지 않았다. 조영촬영상에서는 조영제가 집적된 끝 부분이 확장된 결장내로 돌출해 있고 조영제가 모여 있는 중간 부위는 좁아져 있었다. 이들 소견은 부검에서 확인된 확장된 나선결장과 위축된 원위결장 사이의 점막성 폐쇄를 잘 설명해주었다. 방사선 조영촬영은 결장폐쇄의 위치 및 양태 확인에 효율적이라 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effects against porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) in suckling piglets by oral administration of the IgY. The piglets were divided into two groups: test and control group. The former (n=10) were administered orally with IgY for three days from one-day-old and experimentally challenged with PEDV and TGEV at four-day-old. The latter (n=10) were administered with saline solution and challenged with same methods. Several tests were studied and summarized as follows; In clinical signs, the piglets of the control group showed the typical signs such as severe watery diarrhea, depression and anorexia but those of the test group recovered progressively. Control group showed 20% in mortality, but there were no death in the other. The gross lesions in the test were milder than those in the control, and there were typical findings as like congestion and distension of lumen in the control group. In histopathological study, the piglets of the control group had shortened and fused intestinal villi and a marked loss of epithelium, whereas the others showed milder changes. It could be concluded that oral administration of IgY, specific yolk-antibody against PEDV and TGEV is effective to prevent PEDV and TGEV infection in suckling piglets.

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.

Lymphangiomas or cystic hygromas are quite commonly seen in children. During a 22-year period, from January 1980 to December 2001, 117 patients with lymphangioma were treated and followed in the Department of Pediatric Surgery at Hanyang University Hospital. The male-to-female ratio was 1.9:1(77:40) with a male preponderance. As for the age incidence at time of diagnosis, 10(8.5 %) patients were noted under 1 month of age, 37(31.6%) were between 1 month and 1 year of age, 12(10.3%) between 1 and 2 years of age, so 59(50.4%) were under 2 years of age. Sixty one (52.1%) lymphangioma-cases were located in the neck, including one case at the nape. Axilla was the second in frequency and the rest were scattered at various sites. The intrascrotal lymphangioma is very rare but we have experienced one case of primary intrascrotal lymphangioma. Eighteen (15.4%) cases were located in the intraabdominal area, 10 in the mesentery, 2 in the greater omentum and 6 in the retroperitoneum. The chief complaints of intraabdominal lymphangioma were abdominal pain, intestinal obstruction, inguinal hernia, palpable mass, and/or abdominal distension. Among 77 histologically proven cases, 14 cases were cavernous lymphangiomas and the rest were cystic lymphangiomas. Bleeding in the lymphangioma was noted in 20(17.1%) cases of all. As for the treatment, a complete excision was performed in 77(65.8%) patients and $AgNO_3$ sclerotherapy after incomplete excision was performed in 23(19.7%). Picibanil (OK-432) sclerotherapy was performed in 17(14.5%) patients. Recurrence rate was 7.7 % and mortality occurred in one case who had a large neck lymphangioma extending into the mediastinum.

Liver tumors in children are rare, relatively complex, and encompass a broad spectrum of disease processes. This study reviews our experience of liver tumors during the last 10 years. Medical records of 36 cases of liver tumors in children, treated at Samsung Medical Centers, from October 1994 to December 2005, were reviewed in this study. We analyzed disease characters and survival rates as a whole and by specific disease. The median age was 3.6 years. Male and female ratio was 1:1. The most common symptom was the palpable mass in 15 cases. Others were abdominal distension in 9 cases, jaundice in 2, vomiting in 2, weight loss in 2, and pubic hair growth in 1. CT or US and liver biopsy were performed for diagnosis. There were 28 malignant tumors: malignant rhabdoid tumor (1 case), hepatocellular carcinoma (3 cases), hemangioendothelioma type II (3 cases), angiosarcoma (1 case), and hepatoblastoma (20 cases). Eight tumors were benign; hepatic adenoma (1 case), focal nodular hyperplasia (2 cases), hemangioendothelioma type I (2 cases), mesenchymal hamartoma (3 cases). In this study the clinical characteristics were not different from the other reports. Liver transplantation was performed in 3 cases-1 with hepatoblastoma and 2 with hepatocelleular carcinoma. Accurate and early diagnosis, and individualized multimodality therapeutic approaches might be important for better outcome.

The outbreak of viral diseases caused by viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) and red seabream iridovirus (RSIV) have been reported in cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. VHSV has been a serious viral disease that infects the olive flounders in South Korea. Clinical signs of VHSV infection are skin darkening, abdominal distension and haemorrhages. Outbreaks of fish iridoviral disease was first reported from red seabream, Pagrus major farms in Japan. Recently, iridovirus infection have occurred frequently from olive flounder farms in South Korea. In this study, disease surveillance was performed to monitor the prevalence of VHSV and RSIV in olive flounder in 2014. The samples were collected from 60 different olive flounder farms in Jeju from April, May, September, November and December in 2014. RT-PCR (VHSV) or PCR (RSIV) results showed that VHSV were detected in 5 farms, but RSIV has not been detected in any farms. The migration of olive flounder was restricted for the quarantine in 5 farms of VHS outbreak. The nucleocapsid protein (N) gene and glycoprotein (G) gene sequences of the 5 Korean VHSV isolates were successfully amplified and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using the VHSV sequences reported here together comparison with the nucleotide sequences available from the GenBank database. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that most of Korea VHSV belong to the genotype IVa and closely related to the strains from Japan and China.

Background and Objectives : Constipation is a common digestive disorder and enema is one of the external intervention for constipation. Coffee enema was originated by Dr. Gerson for the purpose of colon cleansing and detoxification. However there has been no study about the effect of coffee enema on constipation. Therefore, this study was planned to evaluate the effect of coffee enema on constipation in the terms of constipation degree and satisfaction questionnaire. Methods : 42 patients were treated of the coffee enema 2 times a week. The constipation score(Constipation Assessment Scale) and frequency of defecation were checked 3 times (before treatment, 1 week and 1 month later). The satisfaction score was also checked 1 week and 1 month later. The interval differences of constipation score between pre- and post-treatment according to body mass index were also analyzed. Results and Conclusions : The constipation scores, frequency of defecation scores checked 1 week and 1 month later were significantly(p<0.01) improved as compared with those before the treatment. The satisfaction scores were close to 'moderately satisfied' 1 week and 1 month later. The scores of 6 parameters in constipation assessment scale, frequency of defecation scores and satisfaction scores were maintained until 1 month later. There was no significant difference in the change of constipation scores between normal BMI and overweight group. 4.2% of the patients reported adverse effects, which were nausea, abdominal distension each.

Background : This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of wild ginseng herbal acupuncture developed for the intravenous use. Healthy male and female volunteers(n=57) went through Randomized Control Trials(RCT). Methods : For those who are under a medication due to common cold or other illnesses were excluded in the primary stage and the subjects with possible abnormalities in the pre-screening process were also excluded in the secondary stage. Then the examination groups were determined by random sampling. Experiment groups were divided into Normal saline injection group(control group), cultivated wild ginseng herbal acupuncture group(experiment group 1) and natural wild ginseng herbal acupuncture group(experiment group 2) Blood tension, body temperature, pulse, and other criteria were measured and analyzed. Results : 1. Intravenous injection of cultivated wild ginseng herbal acupuncture and natural wild ginseng herbal acupuncture didn't cause significant changes in the blood tension, pulse, body temperature, and etc. 2. No significant differences were witnessed in CBC, ESR, biochemistry of blood test and UA between the experiment groups. 3. No significant changes were noted in the thermography before and after the test in the experiment groups. 4. Some of the common physical changes occurring during and after the administration were fatigue, chest distension, and headache in all of the experiment groups. 5. Comparing general condition after one week from the termination of administration, the control group showed worst condition while as the natural wild ginseng herbal acupuncture group displayed best condition. Conclusion : From the above results, we can carefully deduce that the intravenous injection of the wild ginseng herbal acupuncture didn't show significant differences compared to injection of the normal saline. We can infer it is safe on the human body and further studies and reports must be followed.
