    A case of Rathke's cleft cyst within a pituitary adenoma presenting with acromegaly — do “transitional cell tumors of the pituitary gland” really exist? (1992)

    Notes: Summary A case of multiple large Rathke's cleft cyst within a pituitary adenoma presenting with acromegaly is reported. Rathke's cleft cyst within a pituitary adenoma is rare condition, and this is the first report of such a case presenting with acromegaly. An electron microscopic and an immunohistochemical analysis proved that the cyst within the pituitary adenoma of this case differs from cysts found in the embryonic stage of the pituitary gland.

    Notes: Summary To clarify the relationship between the percentage of c-myc protein-labeled cells, the bromodeo-xyuridine (BrdUrd) labeling index (LI) and clinical malignancy in pituitary adenomas, we studied 31 cases of pituitary adenomas. Tumor invasiveness, recurrence, tumor size and the length of illness were evaluated from operative findings, magnetic resonance imaging findings, and the clinical course. Each pituitary adenoma was scored to represent the degree of clinical malignancy. An hour before excision of the tumor, we administered BrdUrd intravenously. Surgical materials were fixed in 70% alcohol and embedded in paraffin. Both hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining were performed using a monoclonal antibody for both anti-BrdUrd and anti-c-myc protein. Among pituitary adenomas, there was a significantly low percentage of c-myc protein-labeled cells in cases with acromegaly. The percentage of c-myc protein-labeled cells in the pituitary adenomas tended to increase with increase with the total scores of clinical malignancy. The BrdUrd LI was lower than 1% in almost all cases of pituitary adenomas, and it showed no correlation with their clinical malignancy. In conclusion, determination of the percentage of c-myc protein-labeled cells in pituitary adenomas proved to be useful for evaluating their clinical malignancy.

    Treatment of proximal vertebral artery stenosis (1991)

    Notes: Summary For vascular reconstruction in cases of atherosclerotic stenosis at the origin of the vertebral artery, we use vertebral to subclavian artery transposition. We discuss the advantages and effectiveness of such treatment based on a study of 32 cases. We have experienced neither surgical mortality nor morbidity and the outcome at the time of discharge has been favourable. Follow-up revealed no deaths, however, three cases exhibited symptoms of cerebral ischaemia. One had a supratentorial completed stroke, and the other two hat TIA or RIND, but without any notable lesion in the angiograms. There were no cases of cerebral infarction of the posterior fossa. We believe that this method should be the first choice for treatment of cases without lesions of the subclavian artery for the following reasons: serious operative complications have not been encountered, surgical invasion is minimal, temporary occlusion of the common carotid artery is unnecessary, the operation can be done by occluding only the vertebral artery, and unlike various bypass operations, anastomosis is required at only one location and is consequently technically uncomplicated. Following anastomosis the cerebral blood pathway is physiological.

    A clinical and histopathological study of factors affecting MRI signal intensities of pituitary adenomas (1994)

    Notes: Abstract Our aim was to elucidate the factors which determine the MRI signal intensities of pituitary adenomas. We examined 51 patients with surgically-confirmed pituitary adenomas. Using a spin-echo pulse sequence (SE 500/15), coronal and sagittal images (3 mm slices) were obtained. Signal intensities on T1-weighted images were measured in the parenchyma of the adenoma and in normal grey matter. The relative intensity of the adenoma was assessed by calculating the ratio of its signal intensity to that of the normal grey matter of the same patient. Parafin-embedded sections were used for haematoxylin and eosin staining. The number of cells in a prescribed area was counted, and the mean of five such counts was taken as the cell density. Immunohistochemically stained sections using antibodies for various pituitary hormones were similarly examined; the ratio of the total number of hormone-positive cells to the overall total number of adenoma cells was calculated. Four independent variables were used in the analysis: the age of the patient, the maximum diameter of the adenoma, the cell density and the proportion of hormone-positive cells in the adenoma and, with the signal intensity ratio as the dependent variable, a multiple regression analysis was performed. This revealed that the the greatest influence upon the signal intensities on T1-weighted images was the proportion of hormone positive cells.
