    Notes: Abstract Visceral larva migrans (VLM) is a disease usually observed in children in which the larvae of animal parasites invade and reside in human tissues for long periods. Although the common causal species of VLM are Toxocara canis and T. cati, we identified three adult patients with VLM, probably due to Ascaris suum, whose diagnosis was made by specific immunoserological tests. The patients complained of respiratory symptoms, and laboratory tests showed pronounced eosinophilia, but neither larvae nor eggs were detected in stool samples. We present the findings of various imaging studies of the patients. Multiple small hypoechoic mass lesions were demonstrated by ultrasound tomography, which disappeared after anti-helminthic therapy. Hepatic mass lesions were detected as low-density areas on computed tomography, as high signal intensities on T2-weighted magnetic resonance images, as space-occupying regions in liver scintigraphy, and as yellow-white nodules in laparoscopy. Although biopsied liver tissue specimens showed marked infiltrations of eosinophiles in the portal tracts and hepatic sinusoids, neither larvae nor eggs could be identified.

    MRI differential diagnosis of intrahepatic biloma from subacute hematoma (1995)

    Notes: Abstract The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) differential diagnosis of intrahepatic biloma from intrahepatic subacute hematoma has been reported in two cases. The biloma was heterogenously intense on T1-weighted images and homogenously hyperintense on T2-weighted images. The hematoma was hyperintense on the both T1-and T2-weighted MR images. The clinical significance of this MRI difference is that intrahepatic biloma needs drainage, whereas intrahepatic hematoma can heal spontaneously.

    Two novel gene mutations (Glu174→Lys, Phe383→Tyr) causing the “hepatic” form of carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT II) deficiency has two different clinical forms, one with “hepatic” and the other with “muscular” symptoms. We studied the molecular basis of the “hepatic” form in two Japanese siblings. Their CPT II activity in lymphoblasts was reduced to 3% of the level observed in normal controls. cDNA analysis showed that the proband was a compound heterozygote. One allele carried a new mutation, G621→A (Glu174→Lys). The other carried three single-base substitutions; a new mutation, T1249→A (Phe383→Tyr), and two previously reported polymorphisms. The brother had the same four substitutions. Neither of the two new mutations in this study was detected in the 60 alleles of 30 Japanese control subjects. Secondary structure prediction analysis of the mutated CPT II protein was different from that of the normal protein. We concluded that these mutations caused the “hepatic” form of CPT II deficiency in the probands.

    Notes: Abstract The gene (ddc) encoding a novel enzyme, l-2,4-diaminobutyrate decarboxylase (DABA-DC; EC 4.1.1.-) in Acinetobacter baumannii was sequenced, and an open reading frame of 1,530 nucleotides was detected. The sequence of 20 N-terminal amino acids of purified DABA-DC and of its proteolytic peptide fragments coincided with those deduced from the nucleotide sequence determined. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence of the A. baumannii enzyme with those of other pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-dependent decarboxylases revealed significant similarity to the group II amino acid decarboxylases and conservation of the putative pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-binding domain.

    Development of extrahepatic arterial blood supply to the liver during hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (1998)

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation of development of the collateral circulation to the liver during hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with the presence of hepatic tumours adjacent to the hepatic surface, and with pretreatment occlusion of aberrant hepatic arteries. In 102 patients with unresectable malignant hepatic tumours treated with HAIC using an implantable port system, development of collaterals to the liver was assessed with CT arteriography using the implantable port and pre- and postoperative angiography. Aberrant hepatic arteries, if present, were occluded prior to treatment for hepatic arterial redistribution. Collaterals to the liver were seen in 29 patients, who had 35 areas with collateral perfusion: 22 areas were in the right posterosuperior area, 6 in the left peripheral area and 7 in the right or left lobar area. Collaterals were revealed more frequently in patients with hepatic tumours adjacent to the hepatic surface than in those without hepatic tumours in peripheral areas in the liver (p 〈 0.0001). In addition, collaterals developed more frequently in patients with an aberrant hepatic arterial anatomy compared with those with conventional anatomy (p = 0.0007). Our results indicated that patients with hepatic tumours adjacent to the hepatic surface and with pretreatment occlusion of aberrant hepatic arteries had the potential to develop collaterals to the liver during HAIC.

    Notes: Summary A new method for intracranial monitoring of brain electrical activity by means of an intra-arterial guide wire as electrode is described. We carried out intracranial electro-encephalography (EEG) using an insulated Seeker Lite-10 guide wire 18 times in 14 patients: ten times in 6 patients with cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) before embolization, and another 8 times in 8 patients with epilepsy. In all cases, a 2–5 times stronger high voltage potential EEG compared with scalp EEG could be recorded. In 3 patients with complex partial epilepsy, intra-arterial (IA) EEG was recorded under subdural strip electrode monitoring, and IAEEG at the sphenoidal portion of the middle cerebral artery was compared with subdural electrode recordings. Frequent interictal spike discharges recorded with subdural electrodes in the lesional medial temporal lobe were simultaneously visible on IAEEG recording. This method is equivalent to that using a semi-invasive electrode, but ECoG recording can be performed at angiography. IAEEG is a method of electrode recording that has the possibility of clinical application.

    Atypical Hemifacial Spasm (1998)

    Notes: Summary  Among 155 cases of hemifacial spasm (HFS), the authors found two cases of atypical HFS (1.3%) in which spasm started with the orbicularis oris and buccinator muscles, and gradually spread upward to involve the orbicularis occuli muscle, whereas the reverse process is usually seen in cases of typical HFS. The compression site in cases of atypical HFS is the posterior/rostral aspect of the facial nerve (FN), whereas it was the anterior/caudal aspect of the FN in all cases of typical HFS except for one. The meatal loop of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) compressed the FN when the vessel passed between the FN and the eighth cranial nerve (8th N). These findings suggest that the topographical organization in the FN in the cerebellopontine cistern may be reversed to a peripheral distribution: the fibres on the posterior/rostral side of the FN innervate the lower part of the facial muscles, and those in the anterior/caudal side of the nerve innervate the upper part of the facial muscles. When examining patients with HFS, we must very carefully determine whether patients have typical or atypical HFS, to determine whether blood vessels (usually the meatal loop of the AICA) between the FN and the 8th N as well as at the root exit zone of the FN are to be decompressed.
