    Notes: Abstract We report three cases of cystic islet cell tumors, two caused by gastrinomas and the other by an islet cell carcinoma. All three patients underwent computed tomography (CT) and angiography and two also had magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Several common radiographic findings were present as follows: thickening of the cyst wall and irregularity of the inner surface on postcontrast CT and MR images, neovascularity and a densely staining hypervascular rim on angiography, and moderately increased signal intensity of the cyst content on T1-weighted MR images, which indicated fluid containing blood and/or necrotic tissue. These findings are helpful in defining the nature of these lesions and strongly suggest that cystic islet cell tumor should be included in the differential diagnosis.

    Notes: Abstract Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were used to examine three male siblings with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). The two elder brothers had verying degrees of unusual intracranial calcification; the eldest also showed involvement of the cerebral white matter on MRI. The severity of intracranial calcification was related to the time before initiation of treatment and inversely to mental ability. Brain damage and mental retardation in NDI may be caused by a delay in initiating treatment; early detection and treatment are important to prevent brain damage.

    Notes: Abstract We describe herein a novel, simplified technique of laparoscope-assisted appendectomy under local pneumoperitoneum condition. A 12-mm-outer-diameter laparoscope fitted with a transparent plastic cap is inserted through a single, small, open laparotomy incision. This scope has a 5-mm working channel for insertion of the multifunctional metallic catheter which maintains the local pneumoperitoneum condition. When we have located the inflamed appendix by tracing the tenia of cecum, we use the grasping forceps protruding from the working channel of this laparoscope to grasp its tip or root on the cecum. This allows us to pull the appendix up and out through the small incision and to resect it in the conventional surgical way. This procedure permits the surgeon to perform appendectomy by making only one small incision under spinal anesthesia, and also eliminates development of the intracavitary concomitant diseases.
