    Notes: We report the rare occurrence of a progressive fetal axillary cystic lymphangioma coexistent with an overlying naevus flammeus. The fetus at 22 weeks gestation was found to have a 37 × 35 mm left axillary multiloculated mass without colour-flow imaging. Amniocentesis showed a normal 46.XX karyotype. Multiple fine-needle aspirations of the mass in the second and third trimesters obtained blood-stained chocolate-coloured fluid containing numerous erythrocytes and lymphocytes but proved ineffective in lessening the progressive growth of the mass. The mother underwent caesarean delivery and a healthy neonate was born with a 141 × 81 mm left axillary cystic lymphangioma and a 50 × 35 mm coexistent naevus flammeus. The neonate was well after simple excision of the lesions. Although cystic lymphangiomas arising in the axilla enlarge progressively during fetal life. our case suggests a good prognosis and except for genetic evaluation. no prenatal intervention is required.

    Maximum stable length of nonisothermal liquid bridges (1990)

    Notes: The maximum stable length of nonisothermal liquid bridges is predicted through a series of numerical computations. The results show that the maximum length of the bridges is less than the Rayleigh limit determined by the isothermal capillary stability analysis. It is enhanced by increasing the strength of the thermocapillary convection, while it is reduced for higher percentage change of surface-tension force or stronger buoyancy-driven convection. For the cases of small parameters, the predictions are in qualitative and quantitative agreement with the previous asymptotic results.

    Notes: Background:  Transcatheter arterial embolization is a major palliative treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, but the survival benefit of transcatheter arterial embolization is controversial.Aim:  To evaluate the role of transcatheter arterial embolization in different stage of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma and to select patients who can get the best benefit from the treatment.Methods:  From 1991 to 1995, 476 patients who had unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma from four medical centres in Taiwan were enrolled. Among them, 425 underwent transcatheter arterial embolization, and 51 received supportive treatment alone. The survivals between the two groups were compared.Results:  Among the 476 patients, transcatheter arterial embolization can significantly prolong survival. The 1-, 2-, and 5-year survival rates for patients who underwent transcatheter arterial embolization were 60.2%, 39.3%, and 11.5%; and the rates for patients who underwent supportive treatment were 37.3%, 17.6%, and 2%, respectively (P = 0.0002). The survival benefit of transcatheter arterial embolization was observed in patients between Cancer and the Liver Italian Program 0 and Cancer and the Liver Italian Program 4. In multivariate analysis, transcatheter arterial embolization, tumour size 〈5 cm and earlier Cancer and the Liver Italian Program stage were independent factors associated with a better survival.Conclusions:  For patients who fulfilled the criteria of transcatheter arterial embolization, embolization can serve as a primary treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. The survival benefit of transcatheter arterial embolization is regardless of tumour stages.

    Prenatal and neonatal intussusception (1998)

    Notes: Abstract Intussusception found in the 1st month of life is rare and usually discussed as one entity, neonatal intussusception, but in fact, includes the intussusceptions occurring both prenatally and neonatally, of which the clinical presentations and results are different. Four full-term babies with prenatal intussusception presenting as intestinal atresia (IA) and three premature babies with neonatal intussusception mimicking necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) are presented. Prenatal intussusception, as one of the causes of IA produces prominent signs of intestinal obstruction immediately after birth. Preoperative evaluation usually fails to yield a definitive diagnosis, but surgery is usually performed in time and is successful. In neonatal intussusception, full-term infants usually have a pathological lead point and the colon is almost always involved. A barium enema is thus useful in diagnosis. Premature babies, on the other hand, rarely have a colonic component, and the clinical features are insidious and similar to NEC. This results in diagnostic confusion that may lead to a dangerous delay in appropriate surgical correction. A high level of suspicion about this condition in cases diagnosed presumptively with NEC is important. Serial abdominal sonograms may be helpful in the early diagnosis of neonatal intussusception.

    Notes: Abstract From January 1990 to December 1995, a total of 181 patients underwent reimplantation of 318 ureters for primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR); 87.8% received bilateral reimplantation. Surgical indications included breakthrough infection (35%), high-grade (≥IV) reflux (33%), or both (29%). The operative success rate was 99.4% at 3 months postoperatively and 100% ultimately. The complications included: contralateral sequential reflux in 3.9%, postoperative bladder diverticula in 1.1%, postoperative urinary infection in 1.1%, residual reflux in 0.3%, postoperative vesicoureteral stenosis in 0.3%, and slippage of the drainage tube in 0.3% of cases. Two patients had renal failure due to VUR that was proven by renal biopsy (one 4-year-old and one 8-year-old). The incidence of associated anomalies was higher than in the normal population. The average number of hospital admission days was 7.9 (3–63). After 1992, no ureteral stent was left in postoperatively. All patients received prophylactic antibiotics for 3 months postoperatively until the VUR disappeared. The surgical results were satisfactory in this series.

    Notes: Abstract From January 1990 to December 1995, a total of 22 patients with primary non-refluxing megaureter were treated in our hospital. The age distribution was 7 days to 8 years. The follow-up period was from 1 to 6 years. Nineteen of these 22 children underwent surgical intervention: 3 were operated upon at the time of diagnosis; the other 16 were initially treated conservatively, but underwent subsequent surgery due to impairment of renal function (13) or breakthrough infections (3). The failure rate for conservative management was about 84% (16/19): only 3 patients treated conservatively showed spontaneous resolution. The surgical success rate was 89.5% (17/19). The pathological change in the ureterovesical junction (UVJ) was adynamic in 13 cases and fibrotic in 6 (including 1 ectopic ureter). The postoperative complications were vesicoureteric reflux in 3 cases, with spontaneous resolution 6 months later, and UVJ stenosis in 1, which was resolved by reoperation. It is concluded that surgery is not necessary in every case, but still plays an important role in most cases. Early surgery can achieve good results and reduce renal damage.

    Notes: Abstract To evaluate the sensitivity of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay using nested primers in detectingHelicobacter pylori, gastric tissue biopsy specimens were collected on endoscopy from 17 patients with a duodenal ulcer. DNA was extracted by phenol/chloroform treatment or boiling in water, and then subjected to a nested PCR using two primer pairs from the urease gene ofHelicobacter pylori. Fourteen of the 17 patients were positive forHelicobacter pylori using DNA samples extracted by either method. The PCR results correlated well with the results of an enzyme immunoassay to detect IgG antibody. However, there were two culture negative patients. The three PCR negative patients were both culture negative and serologically negative. DNA from 9 of the 14 patients was randomly selected and subjected to semiquantification by serial dilutions, and then PCR. The results showed that phenol/chloroform extraction yielded 10–1000 times more DNA than the boiling method. It is concluded that the PCR assay is a rapid and sensitive method for detectingHelicobacter pylori, and that phenol/chloroform extraction is superior to simple boiling in obtaining DNA samples for PCR.

    Description: Cancers with Ras mutations represent a major therapeutic problem. Recent RNAi screens have uncovered multiple nononcogene addiction pathways that are necessary for the survival of Ras mutant cells. Here, we identify the evolutionarily conserved gene enhancer of rudimentary homolog (ERH), in which depletion causes greater toxicity in cancer cells with...
