    Notes: Abstract We report a 2-month-old Japanese boy presenting with large multiple haemangiomas invading his liver. He was treated with daily subcutaneous injection of interferon alfa (IFN-α)-2a with progressive reduction of the hepatic haemangioma. He developed a scrotal mass 2 months after discontinuation of IFN, and this mass eventually required surgical management. Resected tumour was a juvenile haemangioma. The escape of this haemangioma from IFN therapy may be correlated to the quite low level of injected IFN in testis. Conclusion IFN therapy may not be curative for testicular haemangioma although it is effective in shrinking haemangiomas of the liver and skin.

    Successful stenting of congenital bronchial stenosis in infancy (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Recently, stent implantation has become the treatment of choice for patients with tracheobronchial stenosis due to malignant tumours, tuberculosis and recurrent stenosis following lung transplant. However, reports on this procedure in infants with congenital bronchial stenosis are extremely rare. We report successful stent implantation in an infant with congenital left bronchial stenosis followed by rapid improvement in his respiratory condition. Conclusion The use of a stent in infants is still controversial because size mismatch will take place with growth. However, we believe that implantation of a metallic stent can be the preferred treatment of congenital bronchial stenosis even in small infants.
