An endobronchial metastasis is defined as a subsegmental or a more proximal central bronchial metastasis of a nonpulmonary neoplasm in the bronchoscopically visible range. However, the frequencies of endobronchial metastasis range from 2 to 50% of pulmonary metastases from extrathoracic neoplasms by a different definition of an endobronchial metastasis. Primary neoplasms of an endobronchial metastasis including breast cancer, colon cancer, renal cell carcinoma, and ovarian cancer are relatively common. However, an endobronchial metastasis arising from thyroid cancer, parotid gland tumor, bone tumor, bladder cancer, and stomach cancer has only rarely been reported in the literature. Here we report a case of an endobrochial metastases from a hepatocellular carcinoma.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma, a type of sarcoma, is a malignant neoplasm with uncertain origin that arises in both the soft tissues and the bone. The occurrence of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the pleura is extremely rare. We report a case of a 65-year-old Korean man who is being diagnosed with primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the pleura.

Although patients with breast cancer receive standard treatments, they often experience recurrence or metastasis of tumors. Therefore, patients seeking treatment with traditional Korean medicine (TKM) in addition to conventional treatment have increased. We present a case of 46-year-old female with recurring breast cancer. She underwent surgeries and various hormone therapies since being diagnosed in 2007. Upon follow-up examination, she had metastatic lesions on the lung and multiple bones in 2015 and 2016. She received TKM treatments from May 2017 with Aromasin and Afinitor. However, hepatic metastasis was found after two months, so she started Capecitabine with TKM. After about two months, the liver nodules disappeared and a seeding nodule in the right paracolic gutter was decreased. After two months, the tumor response was stable disease. Back pain due to bone metastasis was improved. We suggest that combination treatment of TKM and chemotherapy is a promising method for treating breast cancer.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), a type of sarcoma, is a malignant neoplasm with uncertain origins that arise from both the soft tissues and the bone. The occurrence of MFH on the chest wall is extremely rare. We hereby report a case of a 72-year-old woman who was incidentally detected with MFH after a traffic accident.

의학의 발달과 더불어 종양에 대한 국소치료는 광범위근치술(extended radical surgery) 로부터 기능보존술(function preserving surgery)로 발달하고 이것은 다시 최소침습술(minimal-invasive surgery)로 발전하여 왔다. 그러나 최근 들어서는 기술의 혁신적인 진보로 비침습적수술법(non-invasive surgery)이 개발되어 감마나이프(gamma knife), 사이버나이프(cyber knife), 및 하이푸나이프(HIFU knife) 등이 출현하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 이들 중 하이푸나이프를 이용한 체외강력집속초음파치료(extracorporeal high intensity focused ultrasound therapy)에 대하여 발달사, 치료기 구조 및 치료과정, 조직학적 변화와 기전, 임상적용, 장단점 및 전망 등을 살펴보고자 한다.

Background: McKeown first described two autopsy cases of esophageal small cell carcinoma (SMC) in 1952; about 230 cases have since been reported in the literature. Small cell carcinoma has been reported to account for 0.4% to 7.6% of all esophageal malignancies. SMC of the esophagus as regarded as having a poor prognosis with frequent systemic dissemination. Choice of treatment remains controversial. Material and Method: From August 1987 to December 1998, a review of the records and histologic sections of 8 patients with primary small cell carcinoma of the esophagus seen in 11 years was undertaken. Result: Small cell carcinoma of the esophagus constituted 1.5% of all esophageal cancers. The median age was 61.5 years(range from 42 to 71 years). Seven patients were male, tumor was mainly located in the middle and lower thirds(6 cases) of the esophagus. Pure SMC is 5 cases, and mixed SMC is 3 cases. Operative procedure were as follow: transthoracic esophagectomy with thoracic or cervical reconstructon in 7 patients, transhiated esophagectomy with cervical reconstruction in one. The operative death was none. Adjuvant chemotherapy was performed in 7 patients except one who had poor general condition. Recurrence was observed in 4 patients(mediastinal LN, abdominal LN, SCN, bone). The overall median survival was 15.9 months. Only one patient survived for more than 5 years. Conclusion: We considered that esophageal SMC should be regarded as a systemic disease, and multimodality treatment including chemotherapy should be used. Surgery may be offered in selected patients to manage local disease as part of a chemotherapy based treatment program.

Tc-99m-MIBI는 비특이적 반응으로 양성 비종양성 질환의 일종인 활동성 폐결핵에 섭취가 증가되며, 이의 치료 후 추적 관찰에도 유용할 것으로 생각된다. 특히 만성 폐결핵 환자에 있어 방사선학적으로나 객담검사는 음성이었으나 재발이 의심될 때, tuberculin skin test 상 양성이나 단순 흉부 검사상 확실치 않을 때 유용하게 이용되리라 사료된다.

A 5-year-old, castrated male Yorkshire Terrier with strabismus and exophthalmos of the right eye was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Chungnam National University. Radiography, ultrasonography(US), computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), demonstrated a well-circumscribed, locally calcified mass of the retrobulbar region with contiguous bone structures invaded. Surgical removal of the adnexa, globe, optic nerve and the incorporated orbital neoplasm was performed. Primary orbital meningioma was confirmed by histopathologic examination.

A 15-year-old castrated mixed breed dog presented due to a 5-month history of cough and difficulty in ambulation. Necropsy showed multiple periosteal and intramedullary infiltrative masses in the appendicular skeleton. In addition, single and multiple neoplastic nodules were observed in several organs, including the lungs, liver, kidney, and heart. Microscopically, several skeletal neoplastic masses and nodules in the parenchymal organs revealed similar changes. The neoplastic cells were spindle- to polygonal-shaped with prominent osteoid production and occasional cartilaginous and bone formation. Based on the gross findings and histopathology results, the case was diagnosed as multicentric osteosarcoma with systemic metastases.
