  • 목적 : 본 연구의 목적은 Te-124 반응으로 생산된 I-123을 이용하여 표지된 방사의약품을 이용할 때 저에너지용 조준기와 중에너지용 조준기가 SPECT에 미치는 영향을 비교 평가하는 것이다. 방법 : I-123을 채운 선선원을 이용 선선원과 조준기 사이에 풀렉시 유리판을 넣고 조준기로부터 선선원까지의 거리 5cm, 10cm, 15cm에서 영상을 얻었다. 비슷한 방법으로 I-123을 채운 패트리 접시, 2차원 호프만 모형, 3차원 제젝 모형, 3차원 호프만 모형을 영상화하였다. 서로 다른 조준기에서의 장단점을 보기 위해 공간해상도, 예민도, 산란성등의 특성이 비교되었다. 결과 : LEUHRP와 MEGP 대한 FWHM, FWTM, 그리고 예민도는 각각 (9.27mm, 61.27mm, $129CPM/{\mu}Ci$) 그리고 (10.53mm, 23.17mm, $105CPM/{\mu}Ci$)였다. 2차원 호프만 뇌 모형의 영상질은 LEUHRP가 MEGP보다 우수하였다. 그러나 3차원 제젝모형과 호프만 모형에서의 영상질은 MEGP가 LEUHRP보다 우수하였으며 그 이유는 3차원 영상 조건에서의 산란영향 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 결론 : 이상의 결과로 보아 [I-123]MIBG, [I-123]${\beta}$-CIT, 또는 [I-123]IPT의 3차원 영상 검사를 위하여 MEGP가 LEUHRP보다 우수한 영상을 제공할 것으로 생각된다.

  • Human infection with Echinostoma aegyptica Khalil and Abaza, 1924 (Trematoda: Echinostomatidae) is extremely rare. In this study, we confirmed E. aegyptica infection in 5 riparian residents living along the Mekong River in Savannakhet Province, Lao PDR. The patients revealed eggs of Opisthorchis viverrini/minute intestinal flukes, echinostomes, and other parasites in fecal examinations using the Kato-Katz technique. Following treatment with praziquantel 30-40 mg/kg and pyrantel pamoate 10-15 mg/kg in a single dose and purging with magnesium salts, adult specimens of various helminth species were collected. Among the trematodes, echinostome flukes of 4.5-7.6 mm in length (n = 134; av. 22.3 specimens per case) were of taxonomic interest and subjected in this study. The flukes were morphologically characterized by having total 43-45 collar spines arranged in 2 alternating rows (corner spines usually 5 on each side) and compatible with previous descriptions of E. aegyptica. The patients were mixed-infected with other helminths, so specific clinical manifestations due to this echinostome fluke were difficult to determine. The present paper describes for the first time human E. aegyptica infections in Lao PDR. This is the second report of human infection (2nd-6th cases) with E. aegyptica in the world following the first one from China.

  • 5년령의 암컷 Rottweiler가 하악 및 슬와림프절의 비대, 입주변부의 미란성 피부병변과 우측 후지와 경부에 다수의 구진과 결절의 증상으로 내원하였다. 식욕부진을 제외하고는 전신적으로 특이한 증상은 없었으며, 개인 동물병원에서 cephalexin과 carprofen을 처치하였으나 호전을 보이지 않았다. 혈액검사 결과, 미약한 빈혈과 심한 림프세포 증다증을 보였으며, 생화학적검사에서는 AST수치가 증가한 것을 제외하고는 모두 정상이었다. 피부 세포학적 검사에서 세균이 소수 관찰되었다. 피부조직병리학 검사에서 다발성의 농성육아조성 병변과 미만성 지방염의 특징이 관찰되었다. 특수염색으로 Brown and Brown gram [B+B], periodic acid-Schiff [PAS], Ziehi-Neelsen [ZN] acid-fast, Giemsa 염색을 실시하였으나 원인체를 발견하지 못했다. 따라서 무균성 농성 육아종성/육아종성 피부증후군으로 진단하였고 enrofloxacin과 prednisolone의 병용투여에 양호한 치료반응을 보였다. Rottweiler에서 발생한 나타난 SPGS를 최초로 증례보고한다.

  • The combination of testicular sperm extraction (TESE) with ICSI can achieve normal fertilization and pregnancy rate and is effective method in obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermic patients. But, when pregnancy was not occurred, repeated testicular biopsies are not evitable. Therefore, in this study, we observed the survival rate of testicular spemratozoa and spermatozoa extracted from the seminiferous tubules after cryopreserved-thawed used for next IVF cycle with ICSI. In a total of 23 cases, obstructive azoospermia was 17 cases and non-obstructive azoospermia was 6 cases. In obstructive azoospermia, after thawing, motile spermatozua was observed in 13 cases (76.5%). The fertilization rate with 2PN was 67.6% and 5 pregnancies (29.4%) were achieved. In non-obstructive azoospermia, motile spermatozoa was observed in 2 case (33.3%) after thawing. The fertilization rates with 2PN was 53.7% and 3 pregnancies (50.0%) were achieved. A comparison of the results of motile spermatozoa after thawed testicular spermatozoa and spermatozoa extracted from the thawed seminiferous tubule section were 3 cases (60.0%) and 12 cases (66.6%), respectively. The fertilization and pregnancy rates of thawed testicular spermatozoa and spermatozoa extracted from the thawed seminiferous tubule section were 69.4% and 20.0%, 62.5% and 38.8%, respectively. Conclusively, thawed testicular spermatozoa and spermatozoa extracted from the thawed seminiferous tubule section can achieve normal fertilization and pregnancy and cryopreservation of testicular spermatozoa and seminiferous tubule may avoid repetition of testicular biopsies in azoospermic patients in whom the only source of spermatozoa is the testis.

  • Objective : Intracranial aneurysms are sometimes presented with visual symptoms by their rupture or direct compression of the optic nerve. It is because their prevalent sites are anatomically located close to the optic pathway. Anterior communicating artery is especially located in close proximity to optic nerve. Aneurysm arising in this area can produce visual symptoms according to their direction while the size is small. Clinical importance of visual symptoms presented by aneurysmal optic nerve compression is stressed in this study. Methods : Retrospective analysis of ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms compressing optic apparatus were carried out. Total 33 cases were enrolled in this study. Optic nerve compression of the aneurysms was confirmed by the surgical fields. Results : In 33 cases among 351 cases of ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms treated surgically, from 1991 to 2000, the dome of aneurysm was compressed in optic pathway. In some cases, aneurysm impacted into the optic nerve that deep hollowness was found when the aneurysm sac was removed during operation. Among 33 cases, 10 cases presented with preoperative visual symptoms, such as visual dimness (5), unilateral visual field defect (2) or unilateral visual loss (3), 20 cases had no visual symptoms. Visual symptoms could not be checked in 3 cases due to the poor mental state. In 6 cases among 20 cases having no visual symptoms, optic nerve was deeply compressed by the dome of aneurysm which was seen in the surgical field. Of 10 patients who had visual symptoms, 8 showed improvement in visual symptoms within 6 months after clipping of aneurysms. In 2 cases, the visual symptoms did not recover. Conclusion : Anterior communicating artery aneurysm can cause visual symptoms by compressing the optic nerve or direct rupture to the optic nerve with focal hematoma formation. We emphasize that cerebral vascular study is highly recommended to detect intracranial aneurysm before its rupture in the case of normal CT findings with visual symptoms and frequent headache.

  • "The Golden Mirror of Medicine(醫宗金鑑)" was compiled by the medical officers of the Cheong(淸) government headed by Ogyeom(吳謙: 1736-1795) in 1742, and was adopted as a textbook by the Institute of Imperial Physicians(太醫院) in 1749. This book provides a good summary of academic contents and clinical experiences from before the Cheong(淸) dynasty, and serves as a convenient and practical guide book. "The Notes of Treatise on Cold-Induced Diseases(傷寒論注)" is one part of "The Golden Mirror of Medicine(醫宗金鑑)", and this is placed at the beginning of the book, indicating its importance. The chapter on taeeum-disease[太陰病篇], which is the third part of "The Notes of the Treatise on Cold-Induced Diseases(傷寒論注)", has not yet been translated into Korean. Therefore, in this study, the characteristics of Ogyeom's(吳謙) notes are inspected through a comparative study of the chapter of taeeum-disease[太陰病篇] based on translation and the notes of famous scholars. The texts first provide an outline of taeeum-disease[太陰病], which is followed by diarrhea, vomiting and therapeutic methods of syndrome involving both the exterior and interior[表裏兼證], as well as abdominal distension and pain. The prognoses are then explained in succession. The eight texts that have been shown in the chapter of taeeum-disease[太陰病篇] of original text were relocated and the seven texts that existed in the chapters of taeyang(太陽), yangmyeong(陽明) and gwol-eum(厥陰) were moved to this chapter. Furthermore, Ogyeom(吳謙) moved the cold-dysphagia[寒格] text from a chapter of gwol-eum-disease[厥陰病] to a chapter of taeeum-disease[太陰病] and explained vomiting due to pathogenic cold. The origins of taeeum-disease[太陰病] are purported to occur through the yang-channel[陽經] to the eum-channel[陰經], and taeeum-disease[太陰病] was reported to include both interior-deficiency-cold-syndrome[裏虛寒證] and interior-excess-heat-syndrome[裏實熱證]. In the case of diarrhea-more-severe-symptoms[自利益甚], he thought it induced by faultpurgation[誤下], and in indication for decoction of cinnamon with peony[桂枝加芍藥湯] and decoction of cinnamon with rhubarb[桂枝加大黃湯], he thought it included the exterior syndrome of taeyang-disease[太陽表證], and rhubarb was used in purgation of taeeum-excess[太陰實].

  • A three-year-old male jindo with generalized skin lesions (including seborrhea, hyperk- eratosis, alopecia, papules, and ecchymoses), pruritus lymph node enlargement, and fever was brought to Veterinary Teaching Hospital, College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungbuk National Uni- versity. There were no laboratory findings for parasites and fungi in the hair and skin But, the com- plete blood counts (CBC) showed leukocytosis and severe cosinophilia, It was suspected to be an inflammatory and allergic dermatitis. Thus, prednisoIone (0.5 mg/kg PO, BID for 1 week) and ampi- cillin (10 mg/kg PO, BID for 1 week given. One week later, pruritus and ecchymoses were reduced. These treatments were repeated for 7 day again. Three months later, the dog was presented again due to the relapse and exacerbation of the clinical signs. The signs were as follows; severe pru- ritus, vesicobullous skin lesions, anorexia, emaciation, lameness, and welling of carpal joints that showed inflammatory skin lesion and draining of synovia-like fluid. The values of WBC counts were returned to normal ranges. In contrast, eosinophilia was still observed. Coombs test for patient RBC and serum were negative. Hypoalbuminemia (2.5g/dl) was shown by serum chemistry. The uri- nalysis revealed and presence of leukocytes. Luxation finding of right radial carpal joint by polyarthritis was shown in radiography of affected joints.Lupus eryhematosus(LE) cells also appeared in peripheral blood and synovial fluid of affected joints. Definitely, antinuclear antibody (ANA) of patient serum using feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by all immu- nofluorescence. Based on these findings such as sedum ANA-Positive. major signs (skin disease, non- erosive polyarthritis with soft tissue swelling. and proteinuria), minor signs (fever), and LE cell-pos- itive, a diagnosis of systemic lupus crythematosus (SLE) was mad\ulcorner in this dog. The dog with SLE was administered with Pre(2.0 mg/kg PO, BID for first 4 week and then QOD) to inhibit the production of autoantibodies and with ampicillin (10 mg/kg PO, BID for first 4 weeks and then QOD) to prevent the secondary infection. The condition of this dog was monitored every 2 weeks by physical examinations, radiography, CBC, serum chemistry and urinalyais. At 8th week of treat- ment, the state of SLE evaluated by physical examinations and laboratory findings was markedly improved except for proteinura.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine clinical features of canine episcleritis and outcomes of therapy in Korea. The medical records of dogs with episcleritis presented at the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University from January 2006 to December 2007 were reviewed. Episcleritis was diagnosed in 17 eyes of 12 dogs. The most frequently affected breed was Shih Tzu (n = 6). The median affected age was 5 years with a range from 3 years to 12 years. Simple episcleritis was identified in 8 dogs, nodular granulomatous episcleritis (NGE) in 3 dogs, and secondary episcleritis caused by panophthalmitis in a dog. The combination immunosuppressive therapy of topical corticosteroids, topical cyclosporine A, and intralesional injection of triamcinolone (4 mg) and gentamicin (4 mg) was performed. Most of the patients with episcleritis were resolved within 30 days following the therapy. Surgical excision was performed in 1 NGE case which was not responded to the medical therapy. Recurrence was observed in 4 dogs between 5 and 8 months after the first visit. It is considered that strong immunosuppressive therapy and periodic ocular examination are needed to control episcleritis.
