Disseminated mycobacterial infection after bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination is a very rare disorder, occurring mostly in patients with immunologic deficiency. We report a case of disseminated BCG infection in a 16-month-old girl with severe combined immunodeficiency. Plain radiographs showed multiple osteolytic lesions in the femora, tibiae, humerus, and phalanges. Abdominal sonography and CT scanning revealed multiple nodules in the spleen, and portocaval lymphadenopathy.

Objectives: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication among stroke patients. The implication of DVT progressing into a fatal pulmonary embolism is one of the main reasons treatment cannot be delayed. However, when there is a contradiction for anticoagulants, such intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), it is difficult to determine the course of treatment. Our team reports a case with both acute DVT and ICH who improved with herbal medicine Hyulbuchuko-tang. Methods : A patient with a variety of thrombosis risk factors (atrial fibrillation, DVT, Cb-inf with intracranial hemorrhage due to thrombolytic complications) showed classic symptoms of DVT (pain, edema, discoloration), disorientation and chest discomfort. The patient was administered Hyulbuchuko-tang three times a day for 24 days without any anticoagulants. Conservative therapy including elastic stocking and leg elevation was co-administered. Laboratory tests and extremity vascular Doppler sonography were carried out 3 times during the treatment period. Results : After our treatment period, both popliteal vein DVT and calf vein DVT were not discovered by sonography, and thrombosis derived factors (eg. D-dimer, fibrinogen) decreased. There was no sign of edema or discoloration after treatment, and the patient no longer complained of leg pain, disorientation or chest discomfort. Conclusion : From these results, we suggest that there is a positive effect of Hyulbuchuko-tang on DVT. Hyulbuchuko-tang should be considered as a treatment option when western medical procedures are unavailable.

만성 골수성 백혈병 치료에 있어서 비장의 방사선 조사는 화학요법에 반응이 없거나, 비종대가 심하여 비장 절제술을 시행할 수 없는 환자 그리고 통증을 동반한 비종대 환자에서 증상완화를 위하여 사용되고 있다. 가톨릭의대 성모병원 방사선과에서는 만성 골수성 백혈병에 있어 비장의 방사선 조준시 초음파를 이용하여 치료범위를 정하는 새로운 방법을 개발하여 이에 보고하는 바이다. 이 방법의 장점은 기존의 방사선 조준기를 사용하여 결정하는 방사선치료범위보다 작으며 비장만을 정확하게 포함 할 수 있으므로 효과적 인 비 장 조사 및 주변 장기의 방사선 보호, 그리고 부작용 등을 감소시킬 수 있다.

Objective : We evaluate the role of multislice computerized tomographic angiography[MCTA] in the diagnosis of intracranial vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage[SAH] in patients suspected of having vasospasm on clinical ground. Methods : Between October 2003 and June 2005, patients with ruptured cerebral aneurysms of the anterior circulation clipped within 3 days of the onset were included. We performed follow-up MCTAs in patients who were suspected to have vasospasm on transcranial doppler sonography[TCD] findings and clinical grounds. Based on the clinical presentation of symptomatic vasospasm, we investigated the correlation between clinical, TCD, and MCTA signs of vasospasm and evaluated the role of MCTA in vasospasm. Results : One hundred one patients met the inclusion criteria and symptomatic vasospasm developed in 25 patients [24.8%]. We performed follow-up MCTAs in 28 patients. MCTA revealed spasm in the vessels of 26 patients. The sensitivity of MCTA was 100%. Among the 26 patients with MCTA evidence of vasospasm, 3 patients had TCD signs of vasospasm after symptomatic vasospasm presentation. Another 3 patients with symptomatic vasospasm had no TCD signs of vasospasm in daily serial recordings. Six other patients without symptomatic vasospasm showed MCTA evidence of vasospasm [false positive result] but these patients had also positive TCD signs of vasospasm. Volume rendering[VR] images tended to show significantly more exaggerated vasospasm than maximum intensity projection[MIP] images. The mean cerebral blood flow velocity of both proximal segment of the middle cerebral artery [M1] was significantly correlated with each reduced M1 diameter on MCTA [P<005]. Conclusion : MCTA could be a useful tool for evaluation and planning management of critically ill patients suspected of having vasospasm; however, more randomized controlled trials are necessary to assess these points definitively.

비특이적인 위장관 징후나 증상이 있는 환자를 우선적으로 초음파검사를 시행 해보면 결직장에 국한성 종괴나 분절성 벽비후 등을 묘출해 낼 수 있다. 저자들은 다양한 증례를 통하여 대장암의 초음파검사상 특징적인 소견과 유용성이 있는지를 살펴보았다. 대장조영촬영술을 실시하기 전 복부 초음파검사로 대장암 소견을 보여 수술로 확진된 11명과 타 병원에서 대장암으로 진단 받고 치료를 받고자 내원한 환자 40명을 중심으로 총 51명의 초음파검사 결과를 분석하였다. 대장암 발생부위는 결장 및 직장에서 27예(53%)로 가장 많았고, $40{\sim}50$대(60%)에서 암 발생율이 높았으며, 남녀 비율은 비슷했다. 초음파검사의 비교적 특징적인 소견은 부분적인 대장벽 비후 42예, 종괴형태 9예로 나타났다. 복부동통, 종괴, 배변습관의 변화 등 비특이적인 증상이 있는 환자에서 초음파검사로 대장암의 가능성이 있는 불규칙한 종괴나 분절성 벽비후를 쉽게 찾아 낼 수 있었다. 초음파검사는 고통이 없고 비침습적인 검사로서 내부장기의 검사를 하는데 유용하며, 복부검사 시 위장관을 포함하여 검사한다면 위장관 질환 등을 보다 조기에 발견할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

We measured changes in sonographic findings of patients with clonorchiasis after a treatment in a highly endemic area. A total of 347 residents showed positive stool results for Clonorchis sinensis eggs in a village in northeastern China, and were treated with praziquantel. Of them, 132 patients underwent abdominal sonography both before and 1 year after treatment, and the changes in sonographic findings of 83 cured subjects were compared. Diffuse dilatation of intrahepatic bile ducts (DDIHD) was found in 82 patients (98.2%) before and 80 (96.4%) after treatment, which was improved in 3, aggravated in 1, and unchanged in 79 patients. Increased periductal echogenicity (IPDE) as observed in 42 patients (50.6%) before and 45 (54.2%) after treatment, which was improved in 5, aggravated in 8, and unchanged in 70 patients. Floating echogenic foci in the gallbladder (FEFGB) was detected in 32 patients (38.6%) before and 17 (20.5%) after treatment, which was improved in 20, aggravated in 5, and unchanged in 58 patients. Improvement of FEFGB only was statistically significantly (P = 0.004). The present results confirm that DDIHD and IPDE persist but FEFGB decreases significantly at 1 year after treatment. In a heavy endemic area, the sonographic finding of FEFGB may suggest active clonorchiasis 1 year after treatment.

This is a case report on a deep vein thrombosis(DVT) patient whose pain, numbness, and swelling in the left leg have been decreased with Korean Medicine. The 59 year-old male patient who was diagnosed with DVT and showed the classic symptoms of DVT(pain, numbness and swelling in the left leg). Although he was treated with medication(100mg of aspirin, 20mg of rivaroxaban) for five weeks, his symptoms did not improved. Then, he was gaven Sunkihwalhyul-tang three times a day and Jungsongouhyul pharmacopuncture once a day for two months. Conservative therapy including leg elevation and an elastic stocking was co-administered. During our treatment period, the size of the thrombus in the left external iliac vein was decreased according to sonography compared with the pre-hospital's sonography, and the patient felt his symptoms had improved. This case report suggests Korean Medicine may play a role in improving the deep vein thrombosis symptoms.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of sclerotherapy for conservative treatment of ovarian pseudocyst. Methods: Patients with ovarian pseudocyst who had undergone sclerotherapy at Ajou University Hospital from February, 1997 to March, 2002 were included in this study. Sclerotherapy was performed as follows: Under intravenous analgesia, the cyst was irrigated with dehydrated alcohol after aspiration under transvaginal sonography. The aspirated contents and alcohol irrigated contents were sent for cytologic examination. Results: 71 patients with ovarian pseudocyst were performed sclerotherapy. All but 2 patients were followed up for 0.5 to 33 months with transvaginal sonography and pelvic examination. Mean age of the patients was 40 years old. Mean size of the pseudocyst was 8.0 cm, mean amount of aspiration fluid was 179.8 ml, and average follow-up duration was 6.0 months. All had abdominal or pelvic surgical history and 38 patients (58.9%) of them had undergone hysterectomy. 44 of 71 patients (62.0%) were performed sclerotherapy only one time. 27 patients (38.0%) recurred and were undergone more than one time. Complication was not occurred in all cases. Conclusions: We concluded that although pseudocyst after sclerotherapy has high recurrence rate, sclerotherapy was an safe and effective method for conservative treatment of ovarian pseudocyst.
