A 16-year-old female Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris) infected with Paragonimus kellicotti was described. Noticeable clinical symptom was not observed before death. At autopsy, numerous cysts were found on the pleural surface of the lung. The cysts were spherical, approximately 1.0 cm in diameter, bulge the pleura, and dark red-brown in color. Such cysts were also found in the deeper lung parenchyma, and usually contained adult flukes in pairs. Histopathologically, the cyst was lined with stratified squamous epithelium which arose from metaplasia of bronchial epithelium. Partial hyperplasia and necrotic foci accompanied with inflammatory cells were often observed in the squamous epithelium. The outer part of the cyst was consisted of fibrous connective tissue in which leukocytes were infiltrated. Catarrhal pneumonia was manifested in the adjacent lung tissues.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow condi- tions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experi- mental measurements were in good agreement lith numerical results except In flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compli- ance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia (ANFH) in end-to-end anastomoses.

An aorto-coronary bypass graft is frequently adopted for the interventional therapy of the diseased atherosclerotic coronary artery grafting. The bypass artery is often occluded due to restenosis and/or anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia after bypass graft. The optimal aorto-coronary bypass procedure must be studied in order to improve patency rate for the arterial bypass techniques. The objective of this study is to investigate the influences of geometric dimensions of bypass on the hemodynamics around the anastomosis in the stenosed coronary artery with aorto-coronary bypass.

Vascular tumors of the liver are mesenchymal lesions from endothelial cells. They range from common benign lesions such as haemangioma, intermediate tumors like Kaposi sarcoma, and perivascular epithelioid cell tumor to malignant tumors such as hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and hepatic angiosarcoma in adults. Pediatric vascular tumors of the liver also include benign, locally aggressive, borderline, and malignant masses with haemangiomas being the most common benign tumors and epithelioid hemangioendothelioma being an uncommon pediatric malignancy. The list of these lesions is completed by nodular regenerative hyperplasia, solitary fibrous tumour, and hepatic small vessel neoplasms (HSVN). Some of these tumors are uncommon and rare. This review article aimed to enumerate hepatic vascular tumors along with their imaging, histopathology, molecular findings for accurate diagnosis that can result in better management.

An experimental study was done on rabbits to observe the effects of several anticlonorchial drugs on the pathology of the liver infested with Clonorchis sinensis. After two months of infestation with Clonorchis sinensis by giving $400{\sim}500$ metacercariae by mouth, hexachlorophene, chloroquine 2,2' methylenebis (3,4,6 trichlorophenoxy acetic acid) and Hetol were administered orally and follow up macro-and microscopic studies of the liver pathology were done in 2 to 3 days, one month, 2 months and 3 months after the completion of medications. The results obtained in this study are as follows: 1. In both groups which were administered hexachlorophene piperazine 20mg/kg for seven days or 8mg/kg for 18 days, the macroscopic findings of the liver after 3 months revealed only minimal changes of the color and consistency The histopathological findings were the reduction of fibrosis, pseudolobulation, proliferation and adenomatous hyperplasia of bile ducts, and regeneration of liver parenchyma. 2. In groups which were administered chloroquine phosphate 20mg/kg for 18 days or 40mg/kg for 5 days, and also in groups which were administered dithiazanine iodide 30mg/kg for 18 days or 60mg/kg for 5 days, no significant findings of recovery were observed either macroscopically or microscopically. 3. In the group which was given 20mg/kg of 2,2' methylenebis(3,4,6 trichlorophenoxy acetic acid) for 5 days, prominent healing of the damaged tissues was observed after 2 months, revealing the decrease of fibrous tissue, caliber of bile ducts and adenomatous hyperplasia of the epitherial cells of the bile ducts, and regenerationof liver parenchyma. 4. In the group which was given Hetol 200mg/kg for 5 days, swelling, congestion and eddish-brown discoloration of the liver were noted macroscopically after 3 days of completion of drug administration. Hemorrhage, congestion, necrosis and degeneration of the parenchyma were observed microscopically After 10 days, liver appeared almost normal macroscopically, but marked fat degeneration was noted microscopically. After 2 months, the liver was almost normal in gross appearence with only slight atrophy and also marked healing was observed microscopically, i. e. decrease of fibrous tissue and reduction of the previously enlarged bile duct and the regeneration of the liver parenchyma.

A numerical simulation of the steady and pulsatile flow across the end-to-side anastomosis was performed In order to understand the role of flow dynamics in the preferential bevel opment of distal anastomotic intimal hyperplasla. The finite element technique was employed to solve two-dimensional unsteady pulsatile flow in that region. The results of the steady flow revealed that low shear stresses occur at the proximally occluded host artery and at the recirculation region in the Inner wall just distal to the toe region of the anastomosis. The nor- mal;zed wall shear rate was increased, as was the recirculation zone size in the host artery of the by-pass graft anastomosis, with increased anastomotic junction angle. In order to min imize the size of the low wall shear region which might result in the intimal hyperplasia in the by-pass graft anastomosis, a smaller anastomotic junction angle is recommended. The pulsatile flow simulation revealed flow that regions of low and ascillating mali shear do exist near the anastomosis as In the steady simulation. The shift of stagnation point depends on the pulsation of the flow. As the flow was accelerated at systole, the stagnation point moved downstream, disappered at early diastole and reappeared during late diastole. Low shear stress was also found along both walls of the occluded proximal artery. However, the diastolic flow behavior is quite different from the steady results. The vortex near the occluded artery moved downstream and inwardly during late systole, and disappeared during diastole. Recirculations proximal to the toe and heel regions were significant during diastole. Shear stress oscillation was found along the opposite wall. The results of the present study revealed that tow shear occurs at the proximally occluded host artery aud the recirculation region in the inner wall Just dlstal to the toe region of the anastomosis. The present study suggested that the regions of fluctuated wall shear stress wit flow separation is correlated with the preferential developing regions of anastomosis neointial fibrous hyperplasia.

This is a case report on the occurrence of caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) disease among dairy goats in a local farm located in Yeongdong-gun, Chungbuk. Previously, it was reported that the farm experienced intermittent deaths numbering 15 of the 97 goats raised for 5 months. Most of the goats less than 6 months of age were suffering from ataxia and posterior paresis, body tremor and abnormal head posterior. Affected animals frequently had stunted growth and had a rough coat. Goats more than 6 months of age were affected with an insidious, chronic arthritis characterized by articular swelling ('big knee') of the carpal, hock, and stifle joints. Necropsy revealed severely swollen mesenteric lymph nodes, under- flow of 2-3ml synovial fluid in the articular space and fibrous proliferation of synovial membrane. Histopathological examination showed perivascular accumulations of mononuclear inflammatory cells in the white matter of the brain, proliferative synovitis characterized by villous hypertrophy, synovial cell hyperplasia and infiltration by mononuclear inflammatory cells. Pulmonary lesions consists of patchy interstitial pneumonia with hyperplasia of lymphoid tissues and an extensive mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltration into the alveolar septa. Confirmation by nested PCR involves amplification of a 296 bp (lst PCR) and 184 bp (2nd PCR) fragments corresponding to the gag region of the CAE virus. This is the first time CAE has been reported in a local farm in Korea and emphasizes the importances of developing preventive measures against CAE.

Inclined plane, one of frequently used orthodontic appliances, may cause posterior displacement of mandible and injure the normal growth of temporomandibular joint. So author carried out the mandibular posterior displacement experimentally induced by inserting inclined plane in the rat incisors in order to investigate the histological reactions occuring in the temporomandibular joint of experimental animals. Following results were obtained. 1. The posterior displacement of condyle resulted in the widening of anterior synovial space with anterior condylar hyperplasia and posterior condylar atrophy. In addition, tissue changes were more severe in young rats than in adult rats. 2. The tissue reactions were localized only to condylar head ana there were no evidence of traumatic features in young rats. In adult rats, hemorrhage was an additional finding 1 week after experiment. 3. The remodelling processes were accompanied by the increasing or reduction of fibrous layer and subsequent replacement by cartilage layer occured massively and abruptly in young rats, it occured slightly and slowly in adult rats. 4. The remodelling process of injured condyle occured from 1 week to 4 weeks after experiment and completed between 8 weeks after experiment.

Colloid uptake in various hepatic conditions such as focal nodular hyperplasia, regenerating nodules in the cirrhotic liver, hamartoma, hemangioma and rarely hepatoma has been documented. Extrahepatic tumors may show colloid uptake and they include splenic hemangioma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, breast carcinoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. The mechanism of colloid uptake in those lesions is associated with phagocytic activity in or around the tumors. We report a pancreas islet cell tumor that showed colloid uptake on $^{99m}Tc$-phytate liver scan without histologic evidence of phagocytosis by tumor cells or infiltration of phagocytes in the tumor Microscopically the tumor was highly vascular and showed diffuse hemorrhage throughtout the tumor. We postulated that extravasation of the colloid into the tumor insterstitium caused nonspecific colloid uptake in this tumor. It is expected that hemorrhagic tumor may show nonspecific colloid uptake without phagocytosis in or about the lesion.

A 57 years old female complained of severe pain on the right temporomandibular joint (TMJ) area. Her right condyle had been partly resected under surgical operation 13 years ago due to condyle hypertrophy, thereafter she felt dull pain on TMJ area and recently the lesion became severely swelled and painful leading to cancer phobia. The present radiological views showed slightly enlarged and sclerosed condyle with increased radiopacity, but its articular sliding function was almost disable during mouth opening. The patient's TMJ lesion was carefully managed with conservative physiotherapy and pain treatment. The microsection of condyle head obtained from the previous operation was re-evaluated histologically, and it was finally diagnosed as osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD), exhibiting hyperplastic proliferation of cartilage in condyle head and marked vascular dilatation in epiphyseal zone. This abnormal cartilage tissue was distinguishable from normal cartilage tissue found in the peripheral cartilaginous cap of the same microsection. The involved cartilage cap showed thick hypertrophic chondrocyte zone with horizontal and vertical clefts accompanying diffuse hyaline degeneration. The superficial fibrous zone of cartilage cap was thickened and frequently peeled off, while lower hypertrophic zone of cartilage cap was highly cellular and proliferative. Consequently, the endochondral ossification became aberrant and resulted pre-mature apoptosis of many hypertrophic chondrocytes, followed by diffuse and mild inflammatory reaction in the underlying marrow tissue. Therefore, it was suggested that this hypertrophic condyle lesion, OCD, be differentiated depending on radiological and histological features from ordinary condyle hyperplasia, osteochondroma, and osteoarthritis, and that the pathological confirmation of OCD may provide a reliable modality for dental and medical treatment of chronic and painful TMJ lesion.
