A fourteen-month-old Holstein bull from a private cattle fattening farm at Ansung county in Kyunggi Province Korea was submitted on August 2nd 1997, for examination at the Pathology Division of the National Veterinary Research Institute. The bull died within 24 hours after developing clinical signs of abrupt inertia, complete anorexia high fever(40.3℃) diffuse severe emphysematous swelling of upper part of the right hind leg lateral recumbancy and paralysis. At necropsy diffuse severe subcutaneous redness and influx of serosanguinous exudate containing gas bubbles had accumulated under the thorax right hip and upper region of right hind leg. Muscles in upper right hind leg were blackish to dark red and yellowish brown in color. Muscle bundles were dry and separated by gas bubbles and serosanguinous fluids and muscles sections from affected regions floated in water. Histopathologically muscle fibers were partially or entirely degenerated fragmented and separated by exudate and gaseous substance mixed with polymorphonuclear cells. Blood vascular walls in affected regions showed severe acute fibrinoid necrosis. Typical large rod-shaped bacteria with or without oval central to subterminal spores were frequently observed in tissue sections stained with H-E and Gram stain. The large Gram-positive anaerobic endospore-producing rods were isolated from the suspension of muscle lesions. Isolated bacteria were identified as Clostridium(CL) chauvoei and CL. sordellii by biochemical tests. This case was diagnosed as blackleg based on the typical clinical signs gross finding histopathological observation and bacteriological results. This is the first case report on blackleg associated with Cl. chauvoei and Cl. sordellii in Holstein cattle in Korea.

Desmoid tumors are rare soft tissue tumors considered to have locally infiltrative features without distant metastasis until now. Although they are most commonly intraabdominal, very few cases have extra-abdominal locations. The origin of intrathoracic desmoid tumors is predominantly the chest wall with occasional involvement of pleura. True intrathoracic primary desmoid tumors with no involvement of the chest wall or pleura are extremely rare. We recently experienced a case of true intrathoracic desmoid tumor presenting as multiple lung nodules at 13 years after resection of a previous intraabdominal desmoid tumor.

Langerhans 세포 조직구증(LCH, Langerhans\` Cell Histiocytosis)은 Langerhans\` cell histiocyte의 이상 증식을 특징으로 하는 원인 불명의 질환이다. 이 질환은 eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Sch ller-Christian씨 병, Letterer-Siwe병을 포함하는 것으로 과거에는 histiocytosis X로 불리던 질환이다. 피부, 림프절, 골, 골수 및 체내 모든 조직과 기관을 침범할 수 있으나 국내에서 흉벽에서 발생된 예는 보고된 증례가 많지않다. 18개월 된 남자 환아에서 흉벽의 늑골에서 기원하여 골용해 소견을 동반한 종괴가 있어 수술적 절제한 후 LCH로 확진된 증례가 있어 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다

A 2-year-old, female, American cocker spaniel dog presented for a 1-year history of severe ascites, exercise intolerance, tachypnea. At that time, she was in an emergency state. First, the dog was stabilized with oxygen therapy. A diagnosis of cardiac problem was made from history, auscultation, radiograph, ECG, and echocardiography. Jugular pulsation was palpated and a harsh, systolic murmur of tricuspid regurgitation was prominent at the right cardiac apex. Tricuspid valve dysplasia (TVD) was confirmed with echocardiography, accompanying enormous myocardial hypertrophy. The clinical signs had been improved for 8 months with careful therapy and periodic abdominocentesis, and ascites was well controlled. The situation, however, became worse quickly in a week because the client did not follow our management schedule. Finally, she died due to dyspnea and shock. After the spontaneous death, necropsy and histopathological examination were performed and when we opened the thorax, a significantly large heart was observed. On histopathological findings, grossly myocardium appeared pale initially, then progressed to yellow and white. Microscopically, there was an extensive hemorrhage along with loss of myocardial striations. Interstitial fibrosis and various degenerative alterations in myocytes were also present.

뼈에서 발생한 일차성 황색종은 흔치 않은 양성 종양이며, 특히 늑골에서의 황색종은 상당히 드물다. 대부분 연조직에서 발생하며 고지단백증과 관련이 있다. 54세 남자환자로 좌측 흉통으로 시행한 x-ray상 좌측 3번째 늑골종양이 확인 되었다. 혈액검사상 지질, 단백질 모두 정상이었다. 조직검사 위해 절제술을 시행 하였고, 병리소견상 황색종으로 진단되었다.

40세 여자가 앞가슴에 발생한 종양을 주소로 내원하였다. 종양은 흉벽에 생긴 결절성근막염으로 진단되었다. 결절성근막염은 섬유모세포의 증식을 특징으로 하는 드문 양성 연부조직 종양으로, 외과적 절제가 가장 효과적인 치료이다. 외과적 절제 후 저자들은 결절성근막염을 치험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Chylopericardium is a rare disease entity characterized by the accumulation of chylous fluid in the pericardial sac. It usually arises from mediastinal neoplasms, thrombosis of the subclavian vein, tuberculosis, nonsurgical trauma, thoracic or cardiac surgery. The spectrum of symptoms for chylopericardium varies from an incidental finding of cardiomegaly to dyspnea, upper abdominal discomfort, cough, chest pain, palpitation, fatigue. However, most of the patients are asymptomatic. The main purpose of treatment of chylopericardium is the prevention of cardiac tamponade and prevention of metabolic, nutritional, and immunological compromise due to chyle leak. Here, we report a case of chylopercardium secondary to lymphangiomyoma with review of the literature.

The prevailing discipline notes that primary pulmonary angiosarcoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor with almost grave prognosis when presented in a dog. No cases have been reported earlier as occurring in dogs. This is the first time we are reporting a case of primary lung angiosarcoma in a 12-year-old Yorkshire terrier breed dog, that will explore the clinical as well as histopathological features of the tumor as noted in a dog. In this case, radiography revealed a well-defined large soft tissue mass in the caudo-dorsal lung field across the left hemi-thorax. After necropsy, it is noted that the lung was found to have the blood-filled nodular lesions on its surface, as determined with no such lesions on other organs. Upon the histological examination, it showed the presence of an extensive necrotic hemorrhage with anastomosing vascular space. Later, the immunohistochemistry showed strongly positive CD31 cells confirming the endothelial origin of the tumor. This is the first report of canine primary lung angiosarcoma in the Republic of Korea.
