    Notes: Abstract From August 1983 through March 1995, 204,099 people received ultrasonic mass survey of the abdomen for the first time. Among these examinees, 631 (0.31%) malignant neoplasm cases, such as 201 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 81 gallbladder (GB) cancer, 57 pancreatic cancer, and 169 renal cell carcinoma (RCC), were detected. Three hundred seventy six out of 590 cases (64%), excluding chronic leukemia cases and metastatic liver cancer cases, were surgically resected. The resection rate of HCC, GB cancer, pancreatic cancer, and RCC were 25%, 88%, 49%, and 99%, respectively. The cumulative survival rate of the 376 resected cases was 79.5% at 10 years. The cumulative survival rates of resected cases of HCC, GB cancer, pancreatic cancer and RCC were 34% at ten years, 83% at 10 years, 49% at 7 years, and 99% at 10 years, respectively. Ultrasonic mass survey is dramatically useful for early detection of various kinds of abdominal cancers, especially RCC and GB cancer. From now on, many earlier abdominal cancers will be found by establishing and promoting ultrasonic mass survey systems.

    Notes: Abstract PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to clarify the clinical significance of MUC-1 expression in the endoscopic treatment of colorectal carcinoma with submucosal invasion. METHODS: One hundred eighty-four colorectal carcinomas with submucosal invasion were examined. The depth of submucosal invasion was classified as scanty or massive. The histologic subclassfication at the deepest invasive portion was defined as well-differentiated, moderately well-differentiated, moderately to poorly differentiated, poorly differentiated, or mucinous adenocarcinoma. MUC-1 expression was examined immunohistochemically at the deepest invasive portion. In addition, the Ki67 labeling index was also examined immunohistochemically. RESULTS: Lymph node metastases were detected in 28 (15.2 percent) of 184 lesions. Lesions with both scanty submucosal invasion and well-differentiated or moderately well-differentiated adenocarcinomas had no lymph node metastases. MUC-1 expression was detected in 88 (47.8 percent) of 184 lesions and correlated significantly with the presence of lymph node metastases. The Ki67 labeling index also correlated significantly with lymph node metastases. Furthermore, lesions with both MUC-1-negative and low Ki67 labeling index showed no lymph node metastases, even in lesions with massive submucosal invasion. Multivariate analysis indicated that MUC-1 expression was one of the most important risk factors for lymph node metastases and histologic grade among the clinicopathologic factors usually examined. CONCLUSION: MUC-1 expression is one of the accurate predictors of the presence of lymph node metastases among the clinicopathologic factors commonly used. Combined analysis of MUC-1 expression and Ki67 labeling index may be a useful indicator of lymph node metastases and may broaden the indications for the curative endoscopic treatment of carcinoma with massive submucosal invasion.
