    Notes: Abstract We report here the case of a 32-year-old woman who suffered from a unique angiopathy in the central nervous system (CNS). She died of multiple infarcts in the brain stem and cerebellum during treatment with cyclosporine A after bone marrow transplantation for refractory anemia with excess of blasts. The autopsy findings showed segmental narrowing of the basilar artery, in which circumferential dissection of the internal elastic lamina had occurred. The distal portion of the basilar artery was obstructed by upward dislocation of the dissected intima. Similar angiopathy was also observed at multiple sites along the basilar artery branches. These findings suggest endothelial damage, including vasoconstriction and dissection of the CNS arteries.

    Notes: Abstract. It is recommended that tumor surface should be covered before resection in endoscopic surgery, but this is difficult to do, and no satisfactory method for this purpose has been reported. Therefore, we developed a polymer sheet to cover the wet surfaces of tumors. The sheet we developed is composed mainly of a cellulose derivative, ethyl citrate, and polyacrylic acid. Experimental and clinical study was performed to investigate the usefulness of the sheet. The sheet became attached to the organ surface by absorbing fluid secreted by tissues, and remained fixed for a period of 2 to 3 hours. No foreign body or allergic reaction was observed, and no postoperative infection occurred. The polymer sheet can be used safely for the purpose of covering tumors during endoscopic surgery.
