kn-title=Complete Transection of the Common Bile Duct Caused by Blunt Abdominal Trauma: A Rare Case Report
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Common bile duct (CBD) injury after blunt abdominal trauma is rare and difficult to diagnose. Delayed recognition leads to severe morbidity. A 70-year-old Japanese man was admitted after sustaining blunt abdominal trauma. Ultrasonography revealed intra-abdominal fluid, suggesting bleeding. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed pancreatic head injury, intra-abdominal bleeding, and pseudoaneurysm of the anterior superior pancreatoduodenal artery (ASPDA). Bile duct injury was not evident. The application of transarterial embolization (TAE) controlled the bleeding. Canulation into the pancreatic or biliary duct was not possible during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. An emergency laparotomy revealed severe pancreatic head and extrahepatic bile duct injuries. Pancreaticoduodenectomy/Child reconstruction was performed. Complete CBD transection was confirmed. The patient was ultimately discharged without complications. Early recognition, timely surgical management, and intensive care are essential for favorable outcomes in patients who have sustained abdominal trauma.

kn-title=Necrotizing Fasciitis Caused by ESBL-Producing Raoultella ornithinolytica in an Immunocompromised Patient with VEXAS Syndrome
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory somatic) syndrome has a poor prognosis, with infections being a major cause of death. Raoultella ornithinolytica is an environmental bacterium found predominantly in soil and water. Although R. ornithinolytica can cause various infections, necrotizing fasciitis due to this bacterium has not been reported. We describe the case of an 84-year-old Japanese male with VEXAS syndrome who developed septic shock and necrotizing fasciitis while he was under immunosuppressive therapy. The pathogen was initially misidentified as R. planticola by mass spectrometry but later confirmed by whole-genome sequencing as extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) produced by R. ornithinolytica. Although a life-saving leg amputation was required, the patient recovered with appropriate antibiotic therapy. R. ornithinolytica is thus able to cause severe skin infections in immunocompromised individuals.

kn-title=A Mixed-Methods Study on Changes in Interprofessional Education Attitudes and Fundamental Competencies: A Pre?Post Analysis of Clinical Training in Dietetic Students
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study examined the effects of interprofessional education (IPE) on dietetics students during clinical training, focusing on changes in their attitudes toward IPE and their fundamental competencies. Eighty third-year female students (mean age, 21.0 years) at a Japanese women’s university participated. Self-administered surveys were conducted before and after clinical training to assess attitudes toward IPE using the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS) and the Shakaijin Kisoryoku (SKL; Fundamental Competencies for Working Persons) scale. Quantitative data were analyzed using paired t-tests, chi-squared tests, and cluster analyses. Qualitative data from open-ended responses were analyzed thematically. RIPLS and SKL scores increased significantly, from 65.3 to 68.9, and from 28. 4 to 33. 2, respectively (p<0.001). All 12 SKL items showed significant improvement. In free responses, “initiative” (66 mentions), “communication” (10), and “execution” (8) were the most frequently cited as improved competencies. Cluster analysis identified three groups: increasing scores (n=25), high baseline (n=30), and minimal change (n=25). No significant correlation was found between changes in RIPLS and SKL scores (r=?0.108, p=0.355). IPE integrated into clinical training may enhance dietetics students’ attitudes toward interprofessional collaboration and contribute to the development of professional identity. Individualized, phased IPE implementation is recommended to accommodate differences in learner readiness.

kn-title=Surgery for Older Cancer Patients: Cross‐Organ Review and Good Practice Statement by the Japanese Geriatric Oncology Guideline Committee
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Although the number of older people is increasing, there is a lack of evidence and insufficient consensus regarding postoperative complications and survival in older cancer patients. In this study, we conducted a literature search and systematic review focusing on the outcomes after surgery for older cancer patients.<br>
Methods: Literature focusing on surgical treatment for older cancer patients was extracted from Japanese clinical practice guidelines for gastric cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, and gynecological cancers (uterine body, uterine cervix, ovary, and external genitalia and vagina). Outcomes were reviewed, and committee members determined the strength of evidence on a four-point scale (A to D), with A being the highest and D being the lowest.<br>
Results: Older cancer patients tend to have a higher incidence of postoperative complications and postoperative syndromes, and their expected survival is generally shorter compared to non-older patients. When extensive surgeries such as para-aortic lymph node dissection and/or resection with other organs are performed for older cancer patients, the postoperative mortality rates tend to increase compared to non-older patients.<br>
Conclusion: Surgical treatments for older cancer patients tend to result in higher morbidity even when the patients are in good health status. Nevertheless, there is still a possibility that a certain fraction of the patients achieve treatment outcomes comparable to those of non-older patients. Therefore, surgical indication and procedure for older cancer patients should be carefully determined based on surgical invasiveness and patient tolerability.

kn-title=Robotic pancreatoduodenectomy for a giant duodenal leiomyoma: A case report and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: Duodenal leiomyomas are rare mesenchymal tumors. To date, several studies have reported on the safety and feasibility of surgical intervention for duodenal leiomyomas. However, minimally invasive surgery has rarely been performed in cases with duodenal leiomyomas. Herein, we present a case of a giant duodenal leiomyoma successfully treated with robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (RPD).<br>
Presentation of case: A 74-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a 6.5 cm duodenal tumor accompanied by gastrointestinal bleeding. The tumor was located in the second portion of the duodenum. Considering the tumor size and location, RPD was performed. Using the mesenteric Kocker maneuver, the posterior side of the duodenum was safely dissected, and the tumor was resected. The operative time was 373 min, with an estimated blood loss of 10 mL. The patient was followed up for 7 months with no recurrence.<br>
Discussion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first to highlight the clinicopathological findings of a patient with duodenal leiomyoma undergoing RPD. To date, there have been 19 cases, including our case, reporting surgically treated duodenal leiomyoma. Treatment strategies should be decided depending on tumor characteristics, including the size, location, and histology of the tumor.<br>
Conclusion: We present a rare case of a giant duodenal leiomyoma that was successfully treated with RPD. Minimally invasive surgery can be safe and an alternative for the treatment of large duodenal tumors.

kn-title=How to report and discuss subgroup analyses in clinical practice guidelines? Evaluation procedure of the clinical and statistical relevancy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The results of subgroup analyses of clinical trials are important reference information when considering the generalizability of a study treatment, i.e., providing the best treatment for each individual patient. The results of subgroup analyses are often presented in publications, etc. as forest plots focusing on patient backgrounds. However, it is important to fully understand and grasp some of the issues involved in subgroup analyses and to interpret the results carefully to apply them in clinical practice. Although the literature includes some reports on how subgroup analyses should be evaluated and handled for the purpose of establishing medical practice guidelines, most of the papers have mainly evaluated the reliability of subgroup analyses from a statistical perspective; few of them have incorporated clinical importance in their evaluations. Therefore, in December 2019, we established a Subgroup Analysis Review Committee consisting of oncologists specializing in lung cancer treatment and statistical experts among the members of the Guidelines Review Committee of the Japanese Lung Cancer Association, with the aim of appropriately reflecting subgroup analysis in Japanese lung cancer practice guidelines. We developed a new evaluation strategy to incorporate clinical aspects as well as reliability assessment. Specifically, on the basis of a clinical and statistical review of the problems with subgroup analyses presented as clinical trial results, we developed criteria and procedures to ensure consistency and fairness in the citation of clinical guidelines.

kn-title=Kinesiophobia Is Associated with Disability, Poor Quality of Life, Psychological Morbidity, and Surgery Dissatisfaction in Patients with Lumbar Microdiscetomy: A Cross-Sectional Controlled Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The study aimed to determine the prevalence of kinesiophobia in patients who had undergone lumbar microdiscectomy and to examine its associations with pain intensity, disability, quality of life, depression, anxiety, and satisfaction with surgery. Forty-eight patients with microdiscectomy and 48 healthy controls were enrolled. The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), Roland-Morris Disability Index (RMDI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-A and HADS-D, respectively), and Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) were administered to both groups. The scores of TSK, RMDI, HADS-A, and HADS-D were significantly higher and SF-36 scores were significantly lower in the microdiscectomy than the control group (p<0.001 for all). In the microdiscectomy group, median (min-max) RMDI, HADS-A, and HADS-D scores were 19 (4-34), 10 (0-18), and 9 (0-18), respectively, in kinesiophobic patients, and were significantly higher than 6 (2-20), 3 (0-11), 2.5 (0-11) in non-kinesiophobic patients (all p<0.001). The median (min-max) SF-36 PCS, SF-36 MCS, and VAS scores for surgery satisfaction were 36.5 (8.7-75), 52.1 (11-95), 5, 5 (0-10), respectively, in kinesiophobic patients and were significantly lower than 71 (28-95), 85.5 (9-93), 8.5 (3-10) in non-kinesiophobic patients (all p<0.05). TSK scores were significantly correlated with RMDI, HADS-A, HADS-D, SF-36, and surgery satisfaction scores (all p<0.05). Kinesiophobic patients with lumbar microdiscectomy therefore showed greater disability and psychological morbidity, poorer quality of life, and lower satisfaction with surgery.

kn-title=Development of a Stroke Discharge Support Evaluation Scale for Ward Nurses in Acute Care Hospitals
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study aimed to develop a scale enabling nurses to objectively evaluate their own stroke discharge support, as a basis for enhancing its overall effectiveness. A draft scale was created based on a literature review, and consisted of a 51-item, 5-point Likert-type questionnaire administered to ward nurses engaged in stroke discharge support at acute care hospitals. Factor analysis was performed to refine the scale. Construct validity was assessed using the known-groups method, and reliability was evaluated through internal consistency analysis. The resulting Stroke Discharge Support Evaluation Scale comprises 29 items across 5 factors, each rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Analysis of the data collected from 237 valid responses demonstrated good internal consistency and supported the scale’s construct validity. The Stroke Discharge Support Evaluation Scale is a reliable and valid tool enabling ward nurses in acute care hospitals to evaluate their own stroke discharge support.

kn-title=Clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided ablation therapies for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: a systematic review and meta-analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are rare; however, they are increasingly being detected. Although surgical resection remains the standard treatment, its invasiveness has prompted interest in less invasive alternatives, particularly for small non-functional pNETs (NF-pNETs) and insulinomas.<br>
Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided ethanol injection (EUS-EI) and radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) for pNETs.<br>
Design: A systematic review and meta-analysis.<br>
Data sources and methods: A literature search of PubMed, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar was conducted (April 2005?April 2025). Studies were eligible if they reported clinical outcomes of EUS-EI or EUS-RFA in adult patients with insulinomas or NF-pNETs. The primary endpoints were clinical success (short-term symptom resolution or radiological response) and adverse event (AE) rates. Data were pooled using a random-effects model.<br>
Results: Twenty-six studies were included in the meta-analysis. For insulinomas, the pooled clinical success rate was 77% (95% confidence interval (CI), 59?88) for EUS-EI and 95% (95% CI, 89?97) for EUS-RFA. The pooled incidence of total AEs was 32% (95% CI, 17?51) for EUS-EI and 25% (95% CI, 15?39) for EUS-RFA. For NF-pNETs, the pooled clinical success rates were 76% (95% CI, 54?90) for EUS-EI and 85% (95% CI, 74?92) for EUS-RFA, and the pooled incidence of total AEs was 27% (95% CI, 20?35) and 26% (95% CI, 17?38), respectively. The most common moderate or severe AEs were pancreatitis in 12 patients (7.6%) after EUS-EI, and pancreatic fluid collection in 4 patients (1.9%) and pancreatic duct stricture in 3 patients (1.4%) after EUS-RFA. One fatal case occurred in a 97-year-old patient following EUS-RFA.<br>
Conclusion: Both EUS-EI and EUS-RFA are effective, relatively safe, and minimally invasive treatment options for pNETs. However, severe AE can occur, and careful patient selection and treatment indication are essential.<br>
Trial registration: Not registered.

kn-title=Ileus Tube-Related Intussusception: A Case Report and Review of 80 Previously Reported Cases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a rare case of ileus tube-related intussusception in an adult. A 56-year-old man with adhesive bowel obstruction was treated with a nasointestinal ileus tube. Although his condition initially improved, persistent abdominal pain led to the diagnosis of intussusception via CT imaging. Manual repositioning of the tube resolved the intussusception without the need for bowel resection. A review of 80 previously reported cases of ileus tube-associated intussusception (total 81 cases, 95 lesions) highlighted the timing of onset, treatment strategies, and precautions. Early detection and diagnosis are crucial to prevent severe complications and preserve bowel function.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We present a case of a woman in her 70s who was diagnosed with mesonephric adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix, following biopsy and surgery. Preoperative MRI revealed a 7-cm, well-defined circumferential cervical mass with left lateral wall predominance, bulging into the uterine cavity and vagina. The lesion showed intermediate signal intensity on T2-weighted images, diffusion restriction, and early contrast enhancement weaker than that of the myometrium, followed by washout on contrast-enhanced imaging. The circumferential growth pattern with the lateral wall predominance and its imaging characteristics may suggest this rare entity be routinely included in the differential diagnosis of cervical cancers.

kn-title=Frailty at 1 Month before ICU Admission Poses a Hospital Mortality Risk in Cancer Survivors whose Condition Has Deteriorated due to Medical Factors
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The optimal indications for intensive care unit (ICU) treatment for critically ill cancer survivors whose condition has deteriorated due to medical factors are unclear. To test our hypothesis that frailty before deterioration was associated with hospital mortality in this patient population, we retrospective analyzed the cases of the patients admitted to the ICU at the National Cancer Center Hospital, Japan (April 2014-March 2022). We excluded patients who underwent surgery within 28 days or were denied critical care within 24 h or admitted after cardiopulmonary arrest. Their Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) scores at 1 month before ICU admission (Pre-ICU) were obtained. Frailty was defined as CFS scores ?4 points. We analyzed 298 admissions and observed that the mortality rate at hospital discharge was significantly higher in the frailty group (n=119). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the following factors were significantly associated with hospital mortality: Pre-ICU frailty (OR 2.00, 95%CI: 1.19-3.36, p=0.009), cancer type (hematological: OR 2.93, 95%CI: 1.42-6.05, p=0.004), and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score at ICU admission (OR 0.88, 95%CI: 0.82-0.95, p=0.0008). Frailty retrospectively assessed using the CFS at 1 month pre-ICU admission is a risk factor for hospital mortality in these cancer survivors.

kn-title=COVID-19 and the Risks of Migraine and Headache: A Mendelian Randomization Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Several observational studies suggested that migraine headache attacks were associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We investigated genetic causal links between COVID-19 phenotypes and the development of headache and migraine, including migraine with aura (MA) and migraine without aura (MO). We conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to estimate the genetic association in European populations. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method was used as the main approach in the MR analyses, together with weighted median and MR-Egger methods. We also performed a series of sensitivity tests to assess the robustness of the MR results. The MR results demonstrated that COVID-19 severity, hospitalization, and susceptibility had no causal effect on the risks of headache, migraine, MA, or MO. No horizontal pleiotropy was detected, and the results were robust as supported by the sensitivity analysis findings. Our analyses identified no casual effect of COVID-19 severity, hospitalization, or susceptibility on the risks of headache or migraine in European populations.

kn-title=Missing the Target: A Scoping Review of the Use of Percent Weight Loss for Obesity Management
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: To co-create comprehensive targets for obesity management, we need to understand the genesis and current use of percent weight loss targets in research. The goals of our scoping review are to (1) synthesize the literature on percent weight loss targets for adults with obesity and (2) discuss the percent weight loss targets in context with their health benefits.<br>
Methods: We searched Cochrane, MEDLINE, and EMBASE for English language, pharmaceutical, and/or behavioral intervention studies in adults with obesity where the explicit aim of the study was weight reduction defined as a percent of body weight. Reviewers screened citations and extracted data including study characteristics.<br>
Results: From 16,164 abstracts, we included 30 citations which were mostly randomized controlled trials (RCTs) (n?=?17) or quasi-experimental studies (n?=?12) published between 1992 and 2024. Most of the studies had target weight loss goals between 3% and 10% of body weight (n?=?28), while n?=?2 had body weight loss goals of 15% or 30%. The proportion of participants who met the percent weight loss target ranged from 5.9% (nutrition only study) to 85% (pharmaceutical study). The studies reported different reasons for targeting a percentage of weight loss such as disease-specific outcomes, reduced risk of disease, or patient-reported outcomes.<br>
Conclusion: Percent weight loss targets were based on similar research and were often not feasible nor sustainable for most participants. The design of these interventions and evaluation of obesity management would benefit from more patient-focused parameters which could help to co-design comprehensive targets for research and practice.

kn-abstract=　聴覚障害児を取り巻く状況は大きく変化してきているが，依然として諸課題の克服がなされているとは言い難い。その一つが「社会性と情緒の発達」である。「きこえない」がために，言語発達が遅れ，コミュニケーション障害をもたらし，さらに心理的問題等を生じるという深刻な二次的，三次的障害を引き起こす恐れがある。教師や保護者は，聴児が苦も無く行う「偶発学習」を意図的，計画的に促す必要がある。また，保護者は，早期からコミュニケーションの困難さを克服する努力を開始し，子どもの心に寄り添いながら，「言語的過保護」の状態を避けつつ様々な情報を丁寧に伝えていく必要がある。教師は，これらを常に意識しながら聴覚障害児と保護者双方の支援にあたり，多様な方法から実態に合うコミュニケーション方法を選択して指導に取り組み，社会性や情緒，さらに生きる力を育む必要がある。

kn-title=Vanishing White Matter Disease With EIF2B2 c.254T >A Variant
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives<br>
Typical MRI findings of vanishing white matter disease (VWM) include diffuse white matter lesions with cystic degeneration. However, mild cases may lack these typical features, posing diagnostic challenges.<br>
Methods<br>
We describe 2 of 3 individuals carrying the homozygous c.254T >A variant in EIF2B2 identified at our hospital, excluding 1 previously reported case.1 Genetic analyses were performed using whole-genome sequence or whole-exome sequence analysis, and detected variants were confirmed by direct nucleotide sequence analysis. Brain MRI findings and clinical features were reviewed for the 2 individuals along with other cases in the literature with the same variant.<br>
Results<br>
A 69-year-old woman presented with recurrent transient dizziness and secondary amenorrhea. MRI of the brain revealed small T2-hyperintense lesions confined to the subcortical white matter with hyperintensities on diffusion-weighted images and mildly elevated apparent diffusion coefficient values. A 28-year-old woman presented with transient dizziness and secondary amenorrhea. MRI of the brain showed mild T2-hyperintense lesions in the cerebral white matter with frontal predominance.<br>
Discussion<br>
This report highlights the clinically mild cases of VWM with subtle abnormalities on brain MRI who had the homozygous c.254T >A in EIF2B2, further expanding the clinical spectrum of VWM and underscoring the importance of genetic assessments in the diagnosis of individuals with mild clinical and MRI findings.

kn-title=Gastroduodenal Artery-Preserving Pancreatoduodenectomy after Esophagectomy with Gastric Conduit Reconstruction
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) after esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction is technically challenging. Preserving the blood supply of the gastric conduit is crucial in performing PD after esophagectomy. We report the case of a 66-year-old man who underwent gastroduodenal artery-preserving PD after esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. The patient developed pseudoaneurysm rupture postoperatively, but was successfully treated with interventional radiology. Precise assessment is important in developing a surgical strategy depending on the patient’s specific anatomy and tumor characteristics. Moreover, special attention should be paid to avoid accidental injuries of the gastric conduit and gastric vessels during surgery.

kn-title=The Utility of a Preoperative 3D Imaging Analysis System for Trigonal Meningioma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Trigonal meningiomas are rare and pose surgical challenges due to their deep location and proximity to critical neuroanatomical structures. We present the case of a 67-year-old woman with a growing trigonal meningioma successfully resected with guidance by a preoperative 3D imaging analysis system. Integration of CT and MRI including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) enabled precise mapping of the optic radiation, guiding a middle temporal gyrus approach. Preoperative embolization reduced tumor vascularity, facilitating gross total resection with minimal blood loss. This case highlights the effectiveness of preoperative 3D imaging systems in optimizing surgical planning and improving outcomes in complex neurosurgical cases.

kn-title=Advantages of Single-Position Surgery over Posterior Fusion for Single-Level Degenerative Lumbar Diseases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Single-position surgery with lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) and percutaneous pedicle screws (PPSs) is gaining attention for its reduced invasiveness. We developed SPAPS, a technique allowing two surgeons to perform anterior LLIF and posterior PPS insertion simultaneously in a single lateral decubitus position. This retrospective study compared SPAPS (SPAPS-LLIF, Group SL) and minimally invasive posterior/transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-PLIF/TLIF, Group PT) in patients treated between 2016 and 2019 with a two-year follow-up. Operative time, estimated blood loss (EBL), length of hospital stay (LOS), JOABPEQ and VAS scores, segmental lordotic angle, lumbar lordotic angle, segmental Cobb’s angle, PPS misplacement, PPS loosening, fusion status, and muscle cross-sectional areas were compared. Fifty-two patients were analyzed (Group SL: 25; Group PT: 27). SPAPS significantly reduced operative time (118.0 vs. 165.3 min, p <0.01) and estimated blood loss (8.6 vs. 164.1 mL, p<0.01). While clinical outcomes and hospital stay were comparable, Group SL had significantly lower PPS loosening (0% vs. 13%, p<0.01) and non-union rates (0% vs. 22.2%, p=0.02). Multifidus muscle atrophy was also less in Group SL (?14.3 vs. ?121.5 mm2, p<0.01). SPAPS demonstrated advantages in reducing surgical invasiveness without compromising clinical efficacy, offering a promising alternative to conventional posterior fusion surgery.

kn-title=A Review of the Endoscopic Treatment for Bile Leak Following Cholecystectomy and Hepatic Surgery
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Bile leak occurs in 2-25% of liver transplant, 3-27% of hepatic resection, and 0.1-4% of cholecystectomy cases. The clinical course of bile leak varies depending on the type of surgery that caused the fistula, as well as the type, severity, and timing of bile duct injury. Although infections resulting from bile leak can be life-threatening, the introduction of endoscopic treatment has enabled some patients to avoid reoperation and has reduced the negative impact on quality of life associated with external fistulas for percutaneous drainage. Endoscopic interventions, such as sphincterotomy and stent placement, reduce the pressure gradient between the bile duct and duodenum, facilitating bile drainage through the papilla and promoting the closure of the leak. We reviewed the literature from 2004 to 2024 regarding bile leak following cholecystectomy and liver surgery, examining recommended techniques, timing, and treatment outcomes. In cases of bile leak following cholecystectomy, clinical success was achieved in 72-96% of cases, while success rates for bile leak following liver surgery ranged from 50% to 100%. Although endoscopic treatment is effective, it is not universally applicable, and its limitations must be carefully considered.

kn-title=Muscle morphological adaptations to resistance training and sports participation in children and adolescents: a scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: This scoping review aimed to systematically map the existing literature on the effects of resistance training (RT) and sports participation on muscle morphology in children and adolescents.<br>
Methods: Herein, a literature search was conducted using three electronic databases: PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The inclusion criteria were as follows: articles that were written in English, which used chronic RT or a combination of RT with other training methods, or investigated the effects of sports participation, and reported muscle morphology as an outcome.<br>
Results: This scoping review included 29 studies: 17 cross-sectional studies, 3 prospective observational studies, and 9 interventional studies. The following distribution was obtained after categorizing the included studies according to participant age: aged 6?11 years, 12 articles; aged 12?14 years, 10 articles; and aged 15?17 years, 10 articles. The designs of interventional studies included eight quasi-experimental parallel-group trials and a quasi-experimental crossover trial. However, none of the included interventional studies followed the CONSORT guidelines for conducting randomized controlled trials. Across the included studies, 14 different sports were analyzed for their effects on muscle morphology. Four studies combined players from various sports. In the included studies, 47 different muscles or muscle groups were examined. Our results identified unexplored muscles because our included studies did not examine the volume of lower leg muscles.<br>
Conclusion: Future research directions in this field, including experimental design and targeted muscles, are warranted.

kn-title=Obese Patient with Gastric Diverticulum Undergoing Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Guided by Preoperative Endoscopic Measurement: A Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=INTRODUCTION: Gastric diverticulum is a rare condition, often asymptomatic and incidentally detected. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a widely performed bariatric procedure, but a gastric diverticulum complicates surgical planning. In this case, careful preoperative assessment allowed safe execution of LSG despite the diverticulum’s proximity to the esophagogastric junction.<br>
CASE PRESENTATION: A 45-year-old woman (BMI: 46.8 kg/m2) with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance was referred for bariatric surgery after unsuccessful weight loss with conservative management. Preoperative endoscopy revealed an 18 × 14 mm gastric diverticulum on the posterior wall of the gastric fundus, 40 mm from the esophagogastric junction. LSG was performed using a surgical stapler, ensuring complete diverticulum resection while preserving gastric tube integrity. The surgery was uneventful, with minimal blood loss and a duration of 2 hours and 52 minutes. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on day 9. Her BMI decreased to 39.3 kg/m2 at the 1-year follow-up, with improved metabolic parameters.<br>
CONCLUSIONS: This case highlights the importance of thorough preoperative evaluation when performing LSG in patients with gastric diverticulum. Accurate endoscopic measurement of the diverticulum’s location aids in determining the optimal resection line, ensuring surgical safety and efficacy. Surgeons should remain vigilant when encountering such anatomical variations to optimize outcomes in bariatric surgery.

kn-title=The duration of prior anti-tumor necrosis factor agents is associated with the effectiveness of vedolizumab in patients with ulcerative colitis: a real-world multicenter retrospective study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background/Aims Previous literature suggests that the response of patients with ulcerative colitis to vedolizumab may be affected by previous biologic therapy exposure. This real-world study evaluated vedolizumab treatment effectiveness in biologicnon-na?ve patients.<br>
Methods This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational chart review of records from 16 hospitals in Japan (December 1, 2018, to February 29, 2020). Included patients who had ulcerative colitis, were aged ? 20 years, and received at least 1 dose of vedolizumab. Outcomes included clinical remission rates from weeks 2 to 54 according to prior biologic exposure status and factors associated with clinical remission up to week 54.<br>
Results A total of 370 eligible patients were included. Clinical remission rates were significantly higher in biologic-na?ve (n=197) than in biologic-non-na?ve (n=173) patients for weeks 2 to 54 of vedolizumab treatment. Higher clinical remission rates up to week 54 were significantly associated with lower disease severity (partial Mayo score ? 4, P= 0.001; albumin ? 3.0, P= 0.019) and the duration of prior anti-tumor necrosis factor α (anti-TNFα) therapy (P= 0.026). Patients with anti-TNFα therapy durations of < 3 months, 3 to < 12 months, and ? 12 months had clinical remission rates of 28.1%, 32.7%, and 60.0%, respectively (P= 0.001 across groups).<br>
Conclusions The effectiveness of vedolizumab in biologic-non-na?ve patients was significantly influenced by duration of prior anti-TNFα therapy. (Japanese Registry of Clinical Trials: jRCT-1080225363)

kn-title=A Case of Surgical Treatment for a Large Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm with a Quadricuspid Pulmonary Valve
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 65-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the annual assessment of the diameter and dilation of a pulmonary artery (PA) aneurysm. He had a small ventricular septal defect (VSD) that had closed naturally. Echocardiography revealed a dilated main PA, mild pulmonary regurgitation and no VSD. Computed tomography confirmed the dilation of the main PA (66.7×47.8 mm), right PA (37.1×32.9 mm), and left PA (36.7×34.0 mm). The patient underwent pulmonary artery replacement using a prosthetic vascular graft. A quadricuspid pulmonary valve was identified intraoperatively. Early surgical intervention could help to prevent rupture and dissection of PA aneurysms.

kn-title=A Rare Presentation of Pneumonic-Type Adenocarcinoma Hidden behind Empyema
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pneumonic-type adenocarcinoma (P-ADC) can closely mimic pneumonia. We report a P-ADC initially diagnosed as pneumonia which developed into a pulmonary abscess and empyema. A 50-year-old Japanese male diagnosed with pneumonia, pulmonary abscess, and empyema was administered antibiotics and a chest tube for drainage, which improved his symptoms and blood test results. However, chest computed tomography showed an enlarged infiltrative shadow. The patient underwent bronchoscopy and was diagnosed with an adenocarcinoma. This case highlights the importance of considering P-ADC in differential diagnoses when a pneumonia-like shadow enlarges post-empyema treatment. Diagnostic and clinical tests, e.g., bronchoscopy, should be performed in such cases.

kn-title=Pulmonary Calcium Phosphate Cement Embolism After Percutaneous Vertebroplasty for Thoracic Vertebrae Fractures
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pulmonary cement embolism (PCE) is a rare but severe complication following percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP). Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) has emerged as an alternative to traditional materials for vertebral augmentation. There appear to be no established guidelines for managing symptomatic PCE, and there is scarce literature on CPC embolisms. This is a first report of a case of pulmonary CPC embolism following PVP. The patient, a 63-year-old Chinese female, was administered anticoagulant treatment and achieved a satisfactory outcome. Her case highlights the severe potential morbidity associated with CPC leakage and emphasizes the efficacy of anticoagulant treatment for managing pulmonary CPC embolisms.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 76-year-old man presented with right eyelid swelling and deteriorated vision. Examination revealed anterior uveitis with hypopyon and a visual acuity of 20/2,000 in the right eye, with no abnormalities in the left. Computed tomography revealed enlargement of the right maxillary sinus and internal fluid accumulation, suggesting a postoperative maxillary cyst (POMC). Nasal endoscopic surgery drained the pus by opening the lower wall of the maxillary cyst. Following the procedure, intraocular inflammation resolved, and visual acuity in the right eye improved to 24/20. This is the first reported case of uveitis secondary to POMC.

kn-title=Effectiveness of exercise therapy on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with ovarian cancer: A scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background & aims. Exercise therapy is a potentially beneficial treatment option for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). However, there is a lack of consensus on the management of CIPN in patients with ovarian cancer. The purpose of this scoping review was to evaluate the evidence on the effectiveness of exercise therapy in patients with ovarian cancer and explore key physical fitness parameters.<br>
Methods. A systematic electronic search was conducted using the MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, PEDro, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases. Two independent reviewers summarized the features and data from the literature regarding the effectiveness of exercise therapy for CIPN and the association between CIPN and physical fitness parameters.<br>
Results. Ten articles involving 3402 participants were reviewed. The study design included one randomized controlled trial, one single-arm trial, one prospective cohort study, five retrospective cohort studies, and two cross-sectional studies. The mean patient age was >60 years in three studies and 50?60 years in six studies. The mean body mass index was >25.0 kg/m2 in six studies and not stated in four studies. In six references, patients received platinum and taxane-based chemotherapy. The effectiveness of an exercise therapy program for CIPN was reported in a randomized controlled trial. Two cross-sectional studies highlighted the association between daily physical inactivity and CIPN; two retrospective cohort studies showed an association between low skeletal muscle density and CIPN; one article demonstrated an association between physical dysfunction and CIPN.<br>
Conclusion. This scoping review indicates that although evidence is lacking, exercise intervention programs for CIPN in patients with ovarian cancer have potential benefits, especially when focused on daily physical activity, skeletal muscle density, and physical function.

kn-title=Telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care in the field of rheumatic diseases: A systematic scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic prompted the widespread adoption of telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care. This systematic scoping review evaluated the effectiveness, cost-efficiency, and challenges of telemedicine for patients with rheumatic diseases.<br>
Methods: A comprehensive search of the MEDLINE database was conducted using specific terms related to rheumatoid or juvenile arthritis, and telemedicine. The literature search included studies published up to March, 2024. In this review, we only considered studies assessing telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care.<br>
Results: The search, conducted on 15 March 2024, generated 258 references. Eight reports from three randomized controlled trials and three observational studies were included. Randomized controlled trials have shown that the outcomes of telemedicine intervention are comparable to those of in-person care in terms of disease activity, functional status, and quality of life, while enabling fewer outpatient visits and cost-effectiveness. However, the high dropout rates highlight the importance of patient preferences and comprehensive education. Observational studies revealed similar findings but were limited by a high confounding bias.<br>
Conclusion: Telemedicine offers economic advantages and maintains clinical outcomes comparable to those of in-person care. Its success depends on structured patient education and alignment with patient preferences. Further research is required, particularly in the context of healthcare in Japan.

kn-title=Immortal time bias from selection: a principal stratification perspective
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Immortal time bias due to post-treatment definition of eligibility criteria can affect experimental and observational studies, and yet, in contrast to the extensive literature on the classical form of immortal time bias, it has seldom been the focus of methodological discussions. Here, we propose an account of eligibility-related immortal time bias that uses the principal stratification framework to explain the noncomparability of treatment arms (or exposure groups) conditional on selection. In particular, we show that the statistical estimand that conditions on observed eligibility after time zero of follow-up can be interpreted using partially overlapping principal strata. Furthermore, we show that, under this perspective, as the timing of eligibility approaches time zero of follow-up, the probabilities of the outcome for eligible individuals monotonically approach the corresponding unconditional (in absence of selection) expected potential outcomes under different treatment levels. Our study provides a potential outcomes-based explanation of eligibility-related immortal time bias, and indicates that, in addition to the target trial emulation framework, principal effects might, for some studies, be useful causal estimands.

kn-title=A Novel Technique for Basilar Invagination Treatment in a Patient with Klippel?Feil Syndrome: A Clinical Example and Brief Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives and Background: To present a novel technique of treatment for a patient with basilar invagination. Basilar invagination (BI) is a congenital condition that can compress the cervicomedullary junction, leading to neurological deficits. Severe cases require surgical intervention, but there is debate over the choice of approach. The anterior approach allows direct decompression but carries high complication rates, while the posterior approach provides indirect decompression and offers good stability with fewer complications. Materials and Methods: A 15-year-old boy with severe myelopathy presented to our hospital with neck pain, bilateral upper limb muscle weakness, and hand numbness persisting for 4 years. Additionally, he experienced increased numbness and gait disturbance three months before his visit. On examination, he exhibited hyperreflexia in both upper and lower limbs, muscle weakness in the bilateral upper limbs (MMT 4), bilateral hypoesthesia below the elbow and in both legs, mild urinary and bowel incontinence, and a spastic gait. Radiographs revealed severe basilar invagination (BI). Preoperative images showed severe BI and that the spinal cord was severely compressed with odontoid process. Results: The patient underwent posterior surgery with the C-arm free technique. All screws including occipital screws were inserted into the adequate position under navigation guidance. Reduction was achieved with skull rotation and distraction. A follow-up at one year showed the following results: Manual muscle testing results and sensory function tests showed almost full recovery, with bilateral arm recovery (MMT 5) and smooth walking. The cervical Japanese Orthopedic Association score of the patient improved from 9/17 to 16/17. Postoperative images showed excellent spinal cord decompression, and no major or severe complications had occurred. Conclusions: Basilar invagination alongside Klippel?Feil syndrome represents a relatively uncommon condition. Utilizing a posterior approach for treating reducible BI with a C-arm-free technique proved to be a safe method in addressing severe myelopathy. This novel navigation technique yields excellent outcomes for patients with BI.

kn-title=The maxillary vein: an anatomical narrative review with clinical implications for oral and maxillofacial surgeons
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The maxillary vein, despite its clinical significance, remains underexplored in anatomical literature. It plays a crucial role in venous drainage of the maxillofacial region and is closely associated with surgical procedures such as sagittal split ramus osteotomy, mandibuloplasty, and condylar or parotid surgeries. Due to its variable anatomy and proximity to critical structures, the maxillary vein poses a risk of significant hemorrhage if injured. Its small size and deep location make preoperative identification challenging, especially without contrast-enhanced imaging. Embryologically, the maxillary vein originates from the primitive maxillary vein and develops through complex anastomoses with other craniofacial veins. Anatomical studies have revealed several variations, including the presence of accessory mandibular foramina and unusual venous connections, which may increase surgical risk. Understanding the detailed anatomy and potential variations of the maxillary vein is essential for minimizing complications and improving surgical outcomes. Despite its importance, more anatomical and clinical research is needed to better define its course, variations, and implications in oral and maxillofacial surgery.

kn-title=A Case of Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma Metastasizing to the Cervical Lymph Nodes after Long-term Follow-up
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can metastasize hematogenously and recur after a long dormancy. Chromophobe RCC metastasized to the cervical lymph nodes 10 years after the primary resection in a woman who underwent nephrectomy for RCC (T1aN0M0 stage I). Metastatic RCC diagnosis was confirmed by aspiration. The lymph node mass was resected, and the tumor cells matched chromophobe RCC metastasis. No adjuvant therapy was administered due to the lack of evidence regarding adjuvant therapy for chromophobe RCC. Long-term surveillance is crucial in RCC because of the possibility of late metastasis. We reviewed the clinical aspects and literature on metastatic cervical RCC.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In thoracic esophageal cancer, lymph node dissection around the recurrent laryngeal nerve is crucial but poses a risk of nerve palsy, affecting postoperative quality of life. In cases with an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA), the right recurrent laryngeal nerve is absent, and the non-recurrent inferior laryngeal nerve (NRILN) enters the larynx directly from the vagus nerve in the cervical region. Identifying the course of the NRILN is vital to avoid injury. A case of esophageal cancer with an ARSA, in which the course of the NRILN was preserved using the Nerve Integrity Monitoring (NIM) system during surgery, is described.

kn-title=Calcified Amorphous Tumor of the Left Ventricle with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Cardiac calcified amorphous tumor (CAT) is a rare, benign non-neoplastic mass of the heart that is sometimes found due to embolic events. Most cases of CAT are treated with surgical removal to prevent future embolic events. However, the treatment strategy for CAT complicated by atrial fibrillation has remained to be determined. Here we report a case of left ventricular CAT complicated by paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) that was successfully treated with surgical removal and pulmonary vein isolation. Pulmonary vein isolation can be a simple and effective procedure for PAF, even during surgical removal of CAT.

kn-title=From a Congenital Defect to Cancer: A Case of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a Neglected Myelomeningocele
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Neural tube defects are common congenital anomalies, typically presenting early due to visible swelling and/or neurological deficits. Rarely, cystic swellings are neglected until adulthood, with only 14 cases of malignancy developing in an untreated meningomyelocele reported to date. We describe the case details of a 26-year-old Indian woman with this rare complication. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a low-lying spinal cord with spinal dysraphism, cord herniation, and a cystic lesion. The biopsy confirmed a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Malignant transformation in an untreated myelomeningocele is rare, with chronic irritation and infection as proposed causes. Early biopsy and treatment are crucial for its management.

en-title=Proposals for Supporting Children’s Adaptation in School Mergers and Closures
kn-title=学校統廃合における児童の適応支援策の提言
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of school mergers and closures on children through a literature review and field survey and to propose strategies for supporting children's adaptation to the resulting environmental transitions. First, a literature review on school mergers and closures indicated that such experiences could influence children's later interpersonal relationships and increase stress responses. However, research on the impact of school mergers and closures on children remains limited, with insufficient understanding of their psychological effects on children. Next, interviews conducted as part of a field survey revealed that school mergers and closures could be significant sources of stress for children. Based on these findings, we recommends multi-level support measures targeting individuals, classes, grades, and entire schools, primarily through special activities, to help mitigate the impact of these transitions on children.
kn-abstract=本研究の目的は，学校統廃合に係る文献検索および実態調査を通して，学校統廃合という環境移行が児童に与える影響について検討し，学校統廃合がもたらす環境移行に対する児童の適応支援策について提言することである。まず，学校統廃合に係る文献検索を行った結果，学校統廃合の経験が児童生徒のその後の人間関係形成やストレス反応の増加に影響を与えている可能性が示された。しかし，学校統廃合が児童に与える影響に関する研究は非常に少なく，統廃合の経験が児童に与える心理的影響については十分に解明されていないことがわかった。次に，実態調査として行ったインタビューにおいて，学校統廃合が児童にとって大きなストレス要因となる可能性があることがわかった。これらの現状を踏まえて，学校統廃合が児童に与える影響を和らげるため，特別活動を中心として，個人・学級・学年・学校レベルでの具体的な取組を提案した。

kn-title=Non-Sinus-Type Dural Arteriovenous Fistula at the Foramen Magnum: A Review of the Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) of the foramen magnum (FM) region is rare. Moreover, the terminology of dAVF is very confusing in this region. In the narrow sense, the FM dAVF is the non-sinus-type dAVF with direct venous reflux to the medulla oblongata or spinal cord via the bridging veins (BVs) of the FM. Previous literature was systematically reviewed to investigate the clinical characteristics, angioarchitecture, and effective treatment of the FM dAVF. From the literature review, almost all the feeders of FM dAVF were dural branches. Spinal pial arteries were rarely involved as the feeder. All lesions had venous reflux to the medulla oblongata via medullary BVs. The FM dAVF is characterized by a significant male predominance and a high incidence of aggressive symptoms. The most common symptom is congestive myelopathy, followed by hemorrhage. The FM dAVF differs from the craniocervical junction (CCJ) arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and is similar to the thoracolumbar spinal dAVF. Direct surgery for the FM dAVF is effective and safe. Endovascular treatment for the FM dAVF may be more effective and has lower complication rates than that for the CCJ AVF.

kn-title=A Rare Case of Compression Neuritis due to Intraorbital Arteriovenous Fistula (IOAVF) Mimicking Retrobulbar Optic Neuritis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Intraorbital arteriovenous fistulas (IOAVFs) are rare vascular abnormalities. We describe a case of an IOAVF featuring a direct shunt between the accessory meningeal artery and the superior ophthalmic artery. A 55-year-old woman presented with a 1-month history of visual impairment in her right eye, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed optic neuritis-like findings. Steroid pulse therapy temporarily resolved visual impairment. However, 1 month later, she experienced decreased visual acuity, ocular conjunctival hyperemia, edema, and a pulsatile murmur. Contrast-enhanced MRI and digital subtraction angiography revealed compression optic neuropathy due to an IOAVF. Following successful treatment with transarterial embolization, her symptoms disappeared.

kn-abstract=Elastofibromatous changes of the oral mucosa, such as an elastofibroma (EF) or an elastofibromatous lesion (EFL), are not well recognized, and the second such case in Japan is reported. A 72-year-old man wearing a complete maxillary denture presented with a small nodule on the hard palate. Histopathological examination showed abundant fibrous tissue with numerous elastic fibers on Elastica van Gieson (EvG) staining. The diagnosis of an oral EFL was made. In the review of oral EF and EFL, no cases with recurrence were identified, but such lesions may resemble neoplastic lesions macroscopically. Accurate diagnosis using EvG stain is needed to recognize oral EFs and EFLs.

kn-title=Eyelid Spindle Cell Lipoma: Case Report and Review of Three Patients in Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 39-year-old woman presented a saucer-shaped mass in the left upper eyelid and underwent the extirpation at local anesthesia. Pathologically, collagen fibers, capillaries, small vessels, and CD34-positive spindle cells were dispersed among mature adipose tissues, indicative of spindle cell lipoma. Long-lasting cyst-like eyelid masses would be usually dermoid cysts, and spindle cell lipoma would be listed as a rare pathological diagnosis in differential diagnoses of cyst-like lesions in the upper and lower eyelid.

kn-title=Skewing Technology for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors: A Comprehensive Review and Recent Trends
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This article gives a comprehensive overview of the current research trends in the skewing technique for permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). The skewing technique has been widely used in many applications to reduce the cogging torque and torque ripple in PMSMs. There are many ways to implement the skew, and new techniques are continually being developed. First, this article summarizes the types of skew structures and presents a survey of existing techniques. Specific emphasis is placed on what kind of skew structure is selected depending on the PMSM configuration. Second, the optimal value of the skew angle for each structure is comprehensively explained, and the discrepancy between theory and finite element analysis is discussed. The definition of skew angle varies across the literature, and one of the purposes of this article is to organize the definition in an easy-to-understand manner. In addition, this article offers three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA) results of various PMSMs employing the skew for quantitative comparison. Then, this article discusses the properties of PMSMs using the skew by structure and the latest trends, and finally describes future prospects.

kn-title=Treatment of Tenosynovial Giant Cell Tumor of the Cervical Spine with Postoperative Anti-RANKL Antibody (Denosumab) Administration
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a fibrous histiocytic tumor originating in the synovial membrane. While cervical TGCT may not be considered a common diagnosis preoperatively because it is relatively rare, it has a high recurrence rate and should be considered. Total resection is preferable, but it can be challenging due to the risk of damaging the vertebral artery. Denosumab has shown effectiveness as a postoperative treatment for osteolytic bone lesion. Denosumab administration coupled with close follow-up might offer an effective postoperative treatment option for unresectable TGCT with bone invasion.

kn-abstract=An 81-year-old Japanese man with a medical history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension was diagnosed with the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The patient developed pain in the bilateral shoulders and hips 3 days after the disease onset and presented to our outpatient clinic after 1 month. Referring to diagnostic criteria, we diagnosed him with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). We initiated prednisolone at 15 mg per day and his symptoms improved immediately. The clinical course of the patient indicated that the SARS-CoV-2 infection triggered the onset of autoimmune disease, PMR in this case.

kn-title=Traumatic Neuroma Arising from Surgical Trauma during Conversion from Laparoscopic to Open Cholecystectomy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Traumatic neuroma is an abnormal proliferation of injured nerves resulting from trauma or surgery. We present a case of traumatic neuroma arising in the cystic duct after cholecystectomy. A 66-year-old man was referred to our department due to a biliary tumor. He had undergone cholecystectomy 20 years prior. Cholangioscopy showed an elevated lesion covered with smooth mucosa. Histological examination revealed normal bile duct mucosa. Although benign disease was suspected, the possibilities of malignant disease could not be excluded. Extrahepatic bile duct resection was planned to include intraoperative rapid-freezing of a biopsy specimen followed by histopathological examination. These intraoperative histology results showed proliferation of nerve and fibrous tissue only, resulting in the diagnosis of traumatic neuroma, so no lymph nodes were removed. To avoid excessive surgical intervention, histopathological examination of an intraoperative rapid-frozen biopsy specimen may be important for diagnosing traumatic neuroma.

kn-title=Partial versus Radical Nephrectomy for Small Renal Cancer: Comparative Propensity Score-Matching Analysis of Cardiovascular Event Risk
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Although partial nephrectomy (PN) is preferred over radical nephrectomy (RN) for preserving renal function in patients with cT1 renal cancer, its impact on cardiovascular events (CVe) remains controversial. This study aimed to compare PN and RN in regard to the occurrence of CVe, including cerebrovascular events and exacerbation of hypertension (HT). We retrospectively analyzed 418 consecutive patients who underwent PN or RN for cT1 renal cancer. Propensity score-matching analysis was used to adjust for imbalances between patients who underwent PN and RN, leaving 102 patients in each group. The 5-year probability of cumulative CVe incidence was 6% in the PN group and 12% in the RN group (p=0.03), with a median follow-up of 73.5 months. The statistical significance was retained after propensity score matching for patients without preoperative proteinuria (p=0.03). For all CVe including cerebrovascular events and exacerbation of HT analyzed, PN provided a lower probability of occurrence than RN in patients with small renal cancers.

kn-title=Infective Endocarditis With Origin in Orbital Vascular Malformation and Maxillary Sinusitis: A Case Report and Review of Four Patients in the Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Infective endocarditis is a life-threatening disease and the early diagnosis is crucial for a better outcome. We report an old adult who developed infective endocarditis in association with new-onset maxillary sinusitis as well as proptosis, which was caused by an orbital mass lesion in the background of pre-existing orbital vascular malformation. A 74-year-old woman was found incidentally to have right orbital vascular (venous) malformation by head magnetic resonance imaging when she was hospitalized for left dorsal pontine infarction. No paranasal sinusitis was noted at that time. She was well until half a year later when she developed fatigue and appetite loss for two days. At the same time, she had proptosis on the right side but did not have a fever. Blood examinations showed leukocytosis and a marked increase of C-reactive protein to 22 mg/dL as well as a moderate increase of bilirubin and liver enzymes. Emergency computed tomography scans from the head to abdomen showed nothing to be noted except for maxillary sinusitis and a retrobulbar orbital mass on the right side, which was in the same location as pre-existing vascular malformation. She began to have empirical antibiotics suspected of infective endocarditis. Head magnetic resonance imaging showed ischemic lesions in the right parietal lobe. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography showed mitral valve regurgitation but no apparent vegetation. Streptococcus anginosus was detected by blood culture and the antibiotics were switched to intravenous penicillin G for 32 days. She was discharged in healthy condition with no proptosis. The orbital vascular malformation might serve as a route for infective endocarditis with the infectious origin in maxillary sinusitis. Maxillary sinusitis would be a predisposing factor for the development of infective endocarditis, and proptosis caused by an infectious focus of abnormal vascular channels in the orbit would lead to the early diagnosis of infective endocarditis. The present patient is unique in showing infective endocarditis in association with orbital vascular malformation.

kn-title=Occult Nesidioblastosis Detected by 111In-Pentetreotide Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Nesidioblastosis, also known as persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, is usually observed in children and infants, although more recently adult-onset nesidioblastosis has also been described. We present a case of nesidioblastosis in a 78-year-old man that was detected by 111In-pentetreotide single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT/CT). The patient was transferred to our hospital’s emergency department in a hypoglycemic coma. Dynamic enhanced CT could detect no lesion in the pancreas, but an 111In-pentetreotide SPECT/CT scan performed after a similar episode four weeks later showed increased focal uptake at the head of the pancreas. The results of a selective arterial calcium injection test were negative. After careful consideration and discussion among colleagues, surgical intervention was selected, and a pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. On histology, there were elevated numbers of Langerhans islets in the pancreatic head, and the islets themselves appeared enlarged. Hypertrophic β-cells comprised the majority, but α-cells, δ-cells and pancreatic polypeptide were also detected in the islets. Based on the histopathological results and repeated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic crises, the patient was finally diagnosed with adult-onset nesidioblastosis. He had no hypoglycemic symptoms during outpatient follow-up examination. Since 111In-pentetreotide SPECT/CT may be able to detect nesidioblastosis, clinicians should consider this relatively new-modality examination when encountering such cases.

kn-title=The First Report of Bickerstaff Brainstem Encephalitis Induced by Atezolizumab for Metastatic Breast Cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment, but they have been known to cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs) by promoting T-cell activation. Neurological irAEs are rare (1%) but have a high fatality rate (11.5%). Here we report the first case of Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis (BBE) induced by an ICI. A woman in her 60s with metastatic breast cancer was treated with atezolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel once intravenously. Eighteen days later, she lost consciousness with ophthalmoplegia and was diagnosed with a neurological irAE. She recovered consciousness immediately with the administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) but suffered severe permanent peripheral neuropathy. Although it is just one case, this experience shows that BBE occurring as a neurological irAE of ICI cancer treatment may be associated with more severe outcomes than conventional BBE in metastatic cancer. Creating a system for multidisciplinary treatment is essential for ICI therapy.

kn-title=Pediatric Severe Febrile Thrombocytopenia Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Severe febrile thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a tick-borne infectious disease that is endemic in parts of eastern Asia. Few pediatric cases have been reported. We describe a case of SFTS in a seven-year-old girl who presented with prolonged fever and gastrointestinal symptoms. Leukopenia and thrombocytopenia on hematology, and a history of outdoor activity led us to diagnose SFTS, although the patient had no tick bite marks. We also review the literature and discuss the characteristics of pediatric SFTS. Physicians should consider SFTS in the differential diagnosis of fever with thrombocytopenia in children living in endemic areas.

kn-title=Endoscopic Transpterygoid Repair of Sphenoid Sinus Meningocele: A Comprehensive Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a challenging and uncommon case involving a 53-year-old Japanese man with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage caused by a meningocele in the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus. Our innovative treatment approach involved a combination of transpterygoid and endoscopic modified medial maxillectomy techniques, with special emphasis on the preservation of the sphenopalatine artery. This strategic preservation was pivotal to the successful use of the ipsilateral nasoseptal flap for reconstruction, which played a crucial role in the prevention of postoperative CSF leakage. Otolaryngologists and neurosurgeons collaborated to perform the bath-plugging technique; effective collaboration was instrumental to the success of the procedure. This report highlights significant advancement from conventional frontal craniotomy to a more sophisticated endoscopic technique, shows the importance of meticulous surgical planning and execution, emphasizes careful preservation of critical anatomical structures during complex neurosurgical and otolaryngological procedures, and underscores the evolving landscape of surgical approaches for managing complex medical conditions.

kn-title=Job strain and adverse pregnancy outcomes: A scoping review and meta‐analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Previous studies have shown that job strain is associated with low birthweight (LBW), preterm birth (PTB), and small for gestational age (SGA). We conducted a scoping review and meta-analysis to assess the association between job strain and adverse pregnancy outcomes.<br>
Methods: A literature search was performed on PubMed. We included English-language studies that examined the association between job strain (based on the Karasek demand-control model) and pregnancy outcomes. We excluded letters, posters, reviews, and qualitative studies. Random effects meta-analysis was performed. Heterogeneity was assessed using τ2 and I2 statistics. Potential bias was assessed using standard funnel plots. Asymmetry was evaluated by Egger's test. Leave-one-out analysis was performed for sensitivity analyses.<br>
Results: Three eligible studies were found for LBW, seven for PTB, and four for SGA. The number of subjects ranged from 135 to 4889, and the prevalence of high job strain ranged from 6.64% to 33.9%. The pooled odds ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI) for LBW, PTB, and SGA were 1.23 (95% CI: 0.97, 1.56), 1.10 (95% CI: 1.00, 1.22), and 1.16 (95% CI: 0.97, 1.39) respectively, indicating modest associations. Heterogeneity for LBW and PTB may not be important but may be moderate for SGA. No publication bias was detected for LBW and PTB, but possible publication bias exists for SGA.<br>
Conclusion: We found a modest association between job strain and PTB. Since job strain is only one of the many aspects of an unhealthy work environment, interventions that improve working conditions more broadly are needed.

kn-title=Middle-Ear Salivary Gland Choristoma with Congenital, Single-Sided Hearing Loss
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Middle-ear salivary gland choristoma (SGCh) is a rare, benign tumor that causes conductive hearing loss owing to middle-ear morphological abnormalities. Early diagnosis is challenging, and surgical resection is indispensable for a definitive diagnosis. We report the case of a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with middle-ear SGCh during the follow-up period for left-sided hearing loss discovered at newborn hearing screening (NHS). Long-term follow-up after the NHS result, subsequent computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging, and surgical resection led to its relatively early diagnosis and treatment.

kn-title=Pneumocephalus with Inverted Papilloma in the Frontoethmoidal Sinus: Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Here, we describe the unique case of a pneumocephalus originating from an inverted papilloma (IP) in the frontoethmoidal sinus. A 71-year-old man with diabetes presented with headaches and altered consciousness. Imaging revealed the pneumocephalus together with bone destruction in the left frontal sinus. He underwent simultaneous endoscopic endonasal and transcranial surgery using an ORBEYE exoscope. Pathological diagnosis of the tumor confirmed IP. Post-surgery, the pneumocephalus was significantly resolved and the squamous cell carcinoma antigen level, which had been elevated, decreased. This case underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and innovative surgical methods in treating complex sinonasal pathologies.

kn-title=A Rare Subglottic Pleomorphic Adenoma: Magnetic Resonance Findings
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=No previous study has published magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings for a subglottic pleomorphic adenoma. Here, we describe the case of a 62-year-old man with a subglottic pleomorphic adenoma. Endoscopic findings revealed a smooth-surfaced tumor arising from the subglottic posterior wall. MRI revealed the lesion as an isointense region on T1-weighted images, which was homogeneously enhanced. This lesion showed a heterogeneously hyperintense region on T2-weighted images. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) showed slightly high intensity in the same area, with a normal or only slightly high apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). Laryngomicrosurgery was performed for transoral excision of the subglottic tumor, resulting in a postsurgical diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma.

kn-title=Pathological findings in enucleated eyes of patients with neurofibromatosis type 1: report of a case with 15-year follow-up and review of 14 patients in the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Backgrounds Iris nodules are frequently noted as clinical manifestations of neurofibromatosis type 1 but the other intraocular manifestations are rare. The purpose of this study is to present a patient with a phthisic eye who underwent enucleation for a cosmetic reason after 15-year follow-up and also to review 14 patients with enucleation described in the literature.<br>
Case presentation A 17-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 from infancy underwent the enucleation of phthisic left eye and also had the resection of eyelid subcutaneous mass lesions on the left side for a cosmetic reason. He had undergone four-time preceding surgeries for eyelid and orbital mass reduction on the left side in childhood and had developed total retinal detachment 10 years previously. Pathologically, the enucleated eye showed massive retinal gliosis positive for both S-100 and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the area with involvement of the detached retinal neuronal layer, together with a more fibrotic lesion along the choroid which were, in contrast, negative for both S-100 and GFAP. The choroid, ciliary body, and iris did not show apparent neurofibroma while episcleral neurofibroma was present.<br>
Literature review In review of enucleated eyes of 14 patients in the literature, buphthalmic eyes with early-onset glaucoma on the unilateral side was clinically diagnosed in 9 patients who frequently showed varying extent of hemifacial neurofibromatosis which involved the eyelid and orbit on the same side. Pathologically, neurofibromas in varying extent were found in the choroid of 12 patients. One patient showed choroidal malignant melanoma on the left side and fusiform enlargement of the optic nerve on the right side suspected of optic nerve glioma. The phthisic eye in another patient showed massive retinal gliosis similar to the present patient.<br>
Conclusions In summary of the 15 patients with neurofibromatosis type 1, including the present patient, buphthalmic or phthisic eyes with no vision were enucleated for cosmetic reasons and showed choroidal neurofibroma in most patients and massive retinal gliosis in two patients including the present patient.

kn-title=New Delhi Metallo-Beta-Lactamase Inhibitors: A Systematic Scoping Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background/Objectives: Among various carbapenemases, New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamases (NDMs) are recognized as the most powerful type capable of hydrolyzing all beta-lactam antibiotics, often conferring multi-drug resistance to the microorganism. The objective of this review is to synthesize current scientific data on NDM inhibitors to facilitate the development of future therapeutics for challenging-to-treat pathogens. Methods: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Extension for Scoping Reviews, we conducted a MEDLINE search for articles with relevant keywords from the beginning of 2009 to December 2022. We employed various generic terms to encompass all the literature ever published on potential NDM inhibitors. Results: Out of the 1760 articles identified through the database search, 91 met the eligibility criteria and were included in our analysis. The fractional inhibitory concentration index was assessed using the checkerboard assay for 47 compounds in 37 articles, which included 8 compounds already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States. Time-killing curve assays (14 studies, 25%), kinetic assays (15 studies, 40.5%), molecular investigations (25 studies, 67.6%), in vivo studies (14 studies, 37.8%), and toxicity assays (13 studies, 35.1%) were also conducted to strengthen the laboratory-level evidence of the potential inhibitors. None of them appeared to have been applied to human infections. Conclusions: Ongoing research efforts have identified several potential NDM inhibitors; however, there are currently no clinically applicable drugs. To address this, we must foster interdisciplinary and multifaceted collaborations by broadening our own horizons.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In the clinical course of malignant melanoma, which can metastasize to multiple organs, gallbladder metastases are rarely detected. A 69-year-old man who underwent resection of a primary malignant melanoma was subsequently treated with nivolumab for lung metastases and achieved complete response. Seven years after surgery, multiple nodules were found in the gallbladder, and he underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The postoperative diagnosis was metastases of malignant melanoma. He has been recurrence-free 8 months after surgery. If radical resection is possible, such surgery should be performed for gallbladder metastases found in patients with other controlled lesions of malignant melanoma.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Organized chronic subdural hematoma (OCSDH) is a relatively rare condition that forms over a longer period of time compared to chronic subdural hematoma and is sometimes difficult to diagnose with preoperative imaging. We resected an intracranial lesion in a 37-year-old Japanese man; the lesion had been increasing in size for >17 years. The preoperative diagnosis based on imaging findings was meningioma; however, pathological findings revealed OCSDH. Clinicians should be aware that OCSDH mimics other tumors and consider surgical strategies for this disease.

kn-title=Spontaneous Bilateral Pneumothorax in a Patient with Anorexia Nervosa: The Management of Prolonged Postoperative Air Leakage
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 24-year-old Japanese female with anorexia nervosa presented to our hospital for bilateral pneumothorax, and 12-Fr thoracostomy catheters were inserted into the bilateral pleural cavities. On hospital day 9, a thoracoscopic bullectomy was performed. However, air leakage relapsed on both sides on postoperative day 1. The air leakage on the right side was particularly persistent, and we switched the drainage to a Heimlich valve. Both lungs expanded gradually and the chest tube was removed on postoperative day 19. Passive pleural drainage might be an option for prolonged air leakage after a bullectomy in patients with anorexia nervosa.

kn-title=Surgical repair for a parahiatal hernia with an esophageal hiatal hernia: A case report and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction and importance: A parahiatal hernia (PH) is a rare diaphragmatic hernia (DH) adjacent to but separated from the esophageal hiatus. The surgical repair for PH needs primary suture closure or complicated hernioplasty and the addition of an anti-reflux procedure. This report describes a case of PH with a symptomatic esophageal hiatal hernia managed using three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopy. <br>
Case presentation: A 65-year-old woman with back pain and breathlessness was referred to our hospital for a DH. Computed tomography showed a diaphragmatic defect on the left side of the esophageal hiatus. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and 24-hour esophageal impedance-pH monitoring showed a symptomatic esophageal hiatal hernia. Laparoscopic repair for both hernias was performed using 3D laparoscopy. The DH orifice was located in the left crus of the diaphragm, and it was separated from the esophageal hiatus. These findings showed that this DH was a PH. The PH was repaired with primary suturing, and a hiatoplasty was performed. Toupet fundoplication was performed with a 270 degrees posterior wrap of the gastric fornix. The patient has remained asymptomatic a year after surgery without any complications. <br>
Clinical discussion: 3D laparoscopy provides significant advantages in surgeries requiring precise suturing. PH repairs require complex procedures, including mesh repair or suturing. Approximately 44 % of PH cases also necessitate fundoplication. 3D laparoscopy was useful for the present case. <br>
Conclusions: A rare PH and a symptomatic type 1 hiatal hernia were repaired with 3D laparoscopy, which is helpful for PH treatment in cases requiring complicated procedures.

kn-title=Spontaneous regression of multiple solitary plasmacytoma harboring Epstein?Barr virus: a case report and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a rare case of spontaneous regression (SR) in an elderly untreated patient with multiple solitary plasmacytoma (MSP). Diagnosis of MSP was confirmed through surgical resection of the left nasal cavity mass and subsequent biopsy of the right humerus. The patient was considered ineligible for chemotherapy due to poor performance status. At 3-month post-diagnosis, the patient’s condition worsened with deteriorating bone lesions and emergence of a new serum monoclonal protein. However, these clinical findings completely disappeared at 6 months, and positron emission tomography?computed tomography at 1 year confirmed complete metabolic remission. Notably, peripheral blood lymphocyte counts were inversely correlated with tumor progression and remission. Pathological re-evaluation of the initial biopsy specimens revealed programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) expression in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells. In addition, tumor cells were infected with Epstein?Barr virus (EBV) but were negative for programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, which is the most potent immune escape mechanism in tumor cells. While the mechanism underlying SR remains unclear, our findings suggest that host immune response as well as EBV infection may contribute to SR. Further studies are needed to elucidate the clinicopathologic mechanisms of tumor regression in plasma cell neoplasms.

kn-title=Trends and issues in clinical research on satisfaction and quality of life after mastectomy and breast reconstruction: a 5-year scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Breast reconstruction (BR) aims to improve the satisfaction and quality of life (QOL) of breast cancer survivors. Clinical studies using patient-reported outcomes (PROs) can therefore provide relevant information to the patients and support decision-making. This scoping review was conducted to analyze recent trends in world regions, methods used, and factors investigated. The literature search was conducted in August 2022. Databases of PubMed, MEDLINE, and CINAHL were searched for relevant English-language studies published from 2017 to 2022. Studies involving women with breast cancer who underwent BR after mastectomy and investigated PROs after BR using BR-specific scales were included. Data on the country, publication year, study design, PRO measures (PROMs) used, time points of surveys, and research themes were collected. In total, 147 articles met the inclusion criteria. BREAST-Q was the most widely used, contributing to the increase in the number and diversification of studies in this area. Such research has been conducted mainly in North America and Europe and is still developing in Asia and other regions. The research themes involved a wide range of clinical and patient factors in addition to surgery, which could be influenced by research methods, time since surgery, and even cultural differences. Recent BR-specific PROMs have led to a worldwide development of research on factors that affect satisfaction and QOL after BR. PRO after BR may be influenced by local cultural and social features, and it would be necessary to accumulate data in each region to draw clinically useful conclusion.

kn-title=Perineal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Arising in an Epidermal Cyst
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 90-year-old Japanese woman who had been aware of a subcutaneous mass on the right perineal region for 5 years was referred to our hospital for further examination and treatment because of the rapid growth of the mass and bleeding that began 3 months earlier. A biopsy of the mass revealed a diagnosis of well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. On preoperative examination, the tumor was 90×40 mm in size and was suspected to have partially invaded the levator ani muscle and external sphincter. Since a preoperative cardiac evaluation indicated severe aortic stenosis, we performed transcatheter aortic valve implantation. A radical resection was then performed with general anesthesia. The skin and subcutaneous tissue defects were reconstructed with a posterior gluteal-thigh propeller flap, and a sigmoid colostomy was created. The patient had a good postoperative course and was transferred to a rehabilitation facility 28 days after the surgery. Epidermal cysts are a common benign tumor, and clinicians should keep in mind that these cysts can become malignant.

kn-title=Impact of Travel Distance on Surgical Outcomes of Patients Surgically Treated for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Single-Center Study in Ehime, Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Travel burden is a poor prognostic factor for many cancers worldwide because it hinders optimal diagnosis and treatment planning. Currently, the impact of travel burden on survival after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Japan is largely unexplored. We examined the impact of travel distance on the postoperative outcomes of patients with NSCLC in Ehime Prefecture, Japan. The data of 1212 patients who underwent surgical resection for NSCLC were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into quartiles based on the travel distance from their home to the hospital (? 13 km, 13-40 km, 40-57 km, and > 57 km) in Ehime Prefecture. We found no significant differences among the quartiles in baseline clinicopathological characteristics, including sex, smoking status, histology, surgical procedure, clinical stage, and pathological stage. Overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) also were not significantly different among the travel distance quartiles. We conclude that travel distance did not impact OS or RFS among patients with NSCLC who underwent surgical resection at our institution.

kn-title=The Roles of Neuropeptide Y in Respiratory Disease Pathogenesis via the Airway Immune Response
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The lungs are very complex organs, and the respiratory system performs the dual roles of repairing tissue while protecting against infection from various environmental stimuli. Persistent external irritation disrupts the immune responses of tissues and cells in the respiratory system, ultimately leading to respiratory disease. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a 36-amino-acid polypeptide and a neurotransmitter that regulates homeostasis. The NPY receptor is a seven-transmembrane-domain G-protein-coupled receptor with six subtypes (Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, and Y6). Of these receptors, Y1, Y2, Y4, and Y5 are functional in humans, and Y1 plays important roles in the immune responses of many organs, including the respiratory system. NPY and the Y1 receptor have critical roles in the pathogenesis of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The effects of NPY on the airway immune response and pathogenesis differ among respiratory diseases. This review focuses on the involvement of NPY in the airway immune response and pathogenesis of various respiratory diseases.

It provides various integration capabilities for the collection, display, and analysis of sensor data on a single platform. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become very popular and widely used in various applications including IoT. To support this growth, the integration of AI into SEMAR is essential to enhance its capabilities after identifying the current trends of applicable AI technologies in IoT applications. In this paper, we first provide a comprehensive review of IoT applications using AI techniques in the literature. They cover predictive analytics, image classification, object detection, text spotting, auditory perception, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and collaborative AI. Next, we identify the characteristics of each technique by considering the key parameters, such as software requirements, input/output (I/O) data types, processing methods, and computations. Third, we design the integration of AI techniques into SEMAR based on the findings. Finally, we discuss use cases of SEMAR for IoT applications with AI techniques. The implementation of the proposed design in SEMAR and its use to IoT applications will be in future works.

en-title=Studies on Male Child Caregivers, Past Trends and Future Perspectives - Literature Review
kn-title=男性保育者に関する研究動向と今後の展望
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=The purpose of this review was to identify research trends from previous studies on male child caregivers and to identify remaining issues for the future. Eighty-four reports were selected from the CiNii Research, which first searched the target literature using "male child caregiver" as a keyword. These articles have been grouped into eight categories based on their content. An examination of these categorized articles reveals that there is limited research from the perspective of the men who provide care, while the situation in childcare settings and the public's perceptions of male childcare providers are relatively clear. As future issues, it is necessary to re-examine the social perceptions surrounding male childcare workers, and to clarify the self-perceptions and challenges these workers face in finding fulfillment in the child care profession.
kn-abstract=　本研究は、男性保育者を対象とした先行研究から、研究動向を明らかにし今後の課題を展望することを目的とした。対象文献は、CiNii Research を用いて、「男性保育者」をキーワードとして設定し検索したところ、84件が分析対象となった。対象文献を内容ごとに整理した結果、８つに分類することができた。各分類から、男性保育者に対する保育現場及び社会の認識は比較的明らかにされていたが、男性保育者自身の視点に焦点を当てた研究は十分でないことが明らかとなった。今後は、誕生して50年以上が経過した男性保育者を取り巻く周囲の認識の現状を改めて検討するとともに、男性保育者が保育職にやりがいを感じ、長期的なキャリアを築くにあたっての自己認識及び男性保育者が抱える課題の明確化が必要と考えられた。

kn-title=Pericardial Effusion in Association With Periodontitis: Case Report and Review of 8 Patients in Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Periodontal diseases are well-known background for infective endocarditis. Here, we show that pericardial effusion or pericarditis might have origin also in periodontal diseases. An 86-year-old man with well-controlled hypertension and diabetes mellitus developed asymptomatic increase in pericardial effusion. Two weeks previously, he took oral new quinolone antibiotics for a week because he had painful periodontitis along a dental bridge in the mandibular teeth on the right side and presented cheek swelling. The sputum was positive for Streptococcus species. He was healthy and had a small volume of pericardial effusion for the previous 5 years after drug-eluting coronary stents were inserted at the left anterior descending branch 10 years previously. The differential diagnoses listed for pericardial effusion were infection including tuberculosis, autoimmune diseases, and metastatic malignancy. Thoracic to pelvic computed tomographic scan demonstrated no mass lesions, except for pericardial effusion and a small volume of pleural effusion on the left side. Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography disclosed many spotty uptakes in the pericardial effusion. The patient denied pericardiocentesis, based on his evaluation of the risk of the procedure. He was thus discharged in several days and followed at outpatient clinic. He underwent dental treatment and pericardial effusion resolved completely in a month. He was healthy in 6 years until the last follow-up at the age of 92 years. We also reviewed 8 patients with pericarditis in association with periodontal diseases in the literature to reveal that periodontal diseases would be the background for developing infective pericarditis and also mediastinitis on some occasions.

kn-title=Ectopic Breast Cancer Arising within an Axillary Lymph Node
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report our experience with the diagnosis and treatment of an ectopic breast cancer arising within an axillary lymph node. The patient was a 65-year-old woman diagnosed breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis. We performed a partial mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection. Postoperative pathology revealed no malignant lesions in the breast; however, a nodule in one of axillary lymph nodes had mixed benign and malignant components, leading to a diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma derived from ectopic mammary tissue. This case represents a very rare form of breast cancer, and the malignancy was difficult to distinguish from metastasis.

kn-title=Is Proximal Triangular Fixation Better than the Conventional Method in Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery?
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery, one of the key factors working to prevent proximal junctional kyphosis is the proximal anchor. The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of triangular fixation with conventional fixation as proximal anchoring techniques in ASD surgery. We retrospectively evaluated 54 patients who underwent corrective spinal fusion for ASD. Fourteen patients underwent proximal triangular fixation (Group T; average 74.6 years), and 40 patients underwent the conventional method (Group C; average 70.5 years). Clinical and radiographic outcomes were assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS) values for back pain and the Oswestry disability index (ODI). Radiographic evaluation was also collected preoperatively and postoperatively. Surgical times and intraoperative blood loss of the two groups were not significantly different (493 vs 490 min, 1,260 vs 1,173 mL). Clinical outcomes such as VAS and ODI were comparable in the two groups. Proximal junctional kyphosis in group T was slightly lower than that of group C (28.5% vs 47.5%, p=0.491). However, based on radiology, proximal screw pullout occurred significantly less frequently in the triangular fixation group than the conventional group (0.0% vs 22.5%, p=0.049). Clinical outcomes in the two groups were not significantly different.

kn-title=Prostate Biopsy May Not Be Indicated Early after Bacillus Calmette Gu?rin Treatment
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Bacillus Calmette-Gu?rin (BCG) treatment for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer frequently causes an intraprostatic BCG granuloma. We investigated the optimal timing for a prostate biopsy after BCG treatment by retrospectively analyzing the cases of 22 patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who underwent a prostate biopsy after BCG treatment at our institute (2013-2017). Biopsies were indicated for a rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, positive digital rectal examination findings, or the appearance of de novo low apparent diffusion coefficient lesions on MRI. The control group was comprised of 28 age- and PSA-matched patients. The relationships among the cancer detection rate and the patients’ PSA levels and MRI findings were analyzed. Prostate cancer was detected by biopsy in only 13.9% (3/22) of the patients in the BCG group but in 78.5% (22/28) of the control patients (p=0.0001). The three patients in the BCG group in whom prostate cancer was detected had all undergone the biopsy > 1 year after their BCG treatment. The remaining biopsies were performed within 1 year after BCG treatment and resulted in no diagnoses of prostate cancer. We suggest that performing a prostate biopsy early after BCG treatment is not informative or useful.

kn-title=Rare Combination of Abducens Nerve Palsy and Optic Neuritis on the Same Side: Case Report and Review of 8 Patients in Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The concurrent development of abducens nerve palsy and optic neuritis on the same side is rare. Here we presented an 82-year-old man who developed the combination of abducens nerve palsy and optic neuritis on the left side 2 months after the sixth inoculation of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. In past history at 45 years old, he experienced subarachnoid hemorrhage and underwent surgery for the clipping of intracranial aneurysm. The patient had no systemic symptoms, such as general fatigue, fever, arthralgia, and skin rashes. Physical and neurological examinations were also unremarkable. Since the aneurysmal metal clip used at that time was not compatible with magnetic resonance imaging, he underwent computed tomographic (CT) scan of the head and showed no space-occupying lesion in the orbit, paranasal sinuses, and brain. As an old lesion, the anterior temporal lobe on the left side had low-density area with metallic artifact on the left side of the skull base, indicative of metal clipping. In 4 weeks of observation from the initial visit, he showed complete recovery of visual acuity and became capable of abducting the left eye in full degrees. We also reviewed 8 patients with the combination of abducens nerve palsy and optic neuritis in the literature to reveal that the combination of signs did occur in mild meningitis with rare infectious diseases and in association with preceding herpes zoster in the first branch of the trigeminal nerve. The course of the present patient suggested that the combination of signs might be vaccine-associated.

kn-title=Dramatic Response to Tezepelumab as an Initial Biologic Agent for Refractory Asthma Associated with Type 2 and Non-type 2 Traits
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 74-year-old Japanese woman presented with a 45-year history of refractory asthma. She had been treated with inhaled corticosteroids, a long-acting β2-agonist, and a long-acting muscarinic antagonist for 6 months. She also had a repeated viral infection. Her condition had been characterized as a refractory asthma associated with type 2 and non-type 2 traits. We began treatment with tezepelumab. The control of the patient’s asthma symptoms and quality of life improved greatly within 1 month (changes in eosinophil count from 748 to 96 /μL, in FeNO from 32 to 17 ppb, in the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire score from 3.59 to 6.68, and in the Asthma Control Test score from 13 to 23). Tezepelumab was effective as an initial biologic agent for a patient with refractory asthma associated with type 2 and non-type 2 traits.

kn-title=Omental Abscess after Laparoscopic Proximal Gastrectomy Successfully Treated with Percutaneous Drainage
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report the case details of a 65-year-old Japanese man with an omental abscess that was discovered 43 days after he underwent a laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. His chief complaint was mild abdominal pain that had persisted for several days. The abscess was diagnosed as a rare postoperative complication. We hesitated to perform a reoperation given the invasiveness of general anesthesia and surgery, plus the possibility of postoperative adhesions and because the patient’s general condition was stable and he had only mild abdominal pain. Percutaneous drainage using a 10.2-F catheter was performed with the patient under conscious sedation and computed tomography?fluoroscopy guidance, with no complications. After the procedure, the size of the abscess cavity was remarkably reduced, and 23 days later the catheter was withdrawn.

kn-title=Concomitant Use of Multiple Nephrotoxins including Renal Hypoperfusion Medications Causes Vancomycin-Associated Nephrotoxicity: Combined Retrospective Analyses of Two Real-World Databases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=There is a growing concern about the relationship between vancomycin-associated nephrotoxicity (VAN) and concomitant use of nephrotoxins. We examined this relationship by combined retrospective analyses of two real-world databases. Initially, the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) was analyzed for the effects of concomitant use of one or more nephrotoxins on VAN and the types of combinations of nephrotoxins that exacerbate VAN. Next, electronic medical records (EMRs) of patients who received vancomycin (VCM) at Tokushima University Hospital between January 2006 and March 2019 were examined to confirm the FAERS analysis. An elevated reporting odds ratio (ROR) was observed with increases in the number of nephrotoxins administered (VCM + one nephrotoxin, adjusted ROR (95% confidence interval [CI]) 1.67 [1.51-1.85]; VCM + ?2 nephrotoxins, adjusted ROR [95% CI] 1.54 [1.37-1.73]) in FAERS. EMRs analysis showed that the number of nephrotoxins was associated with higher incidences of VAN [odds ratio: 1.99; 95% CI: 1.42-2.78]. Overall, concomitant use of nephrotoxins was associated with an increased incidence of VAN, especially when at least one of those nephrotoxins was a renal hypoperfusion medication (furosemide, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and vasopressors). The concomitant use of multiple nephrotoxins, especially including renal hypoperfusion medication, should be avoided to prevent VAN.

kn-title=Cochlear Implantation in the Poorer-Hearing Ear Is a Reasonable Choice
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Choosing the optimal side for cochlear implantation (CI) remains a major challenge because of the lack of evidence. We investigated the choice of the surgery side for CI (i.e., the better- or poorer-hearing ear) in patients with asymmetric hearing. Audiological records of 74 adults with a unilateral hearing aid who had undergone surgery at Okayama University Hospital were reviewed. The definition of ‘better-hearing ear’ was the aided ear, and the unaided ear was considered the poorer-hearing ear. We performed a multiple regression analysis to identify potential predictors of speech recognition performance after unilateral CI in the patients. Fifty-two patients underwent CI in the poorer-hearing ear. The post-Ci bimodal hearing rate was far higher in the poorer-ear group (77.8% vs. 22.2%). A multivariate analysis revealed that prelingual hearing loss and the patient’s age at CI significantly affected the speech recognition outcome (beta coefficients: 24.6 and ?0.33, 95% confidence intervals [11.75-37.45] and [?0.58 to ?0.09], respectively), but the CI surgery side did not (?6.76, [?14.92-1.39]). Unilateral CI in the poorer-hearing ear may therefore be a reasonable choice for adult patients with postlingual severe hearing loss, providing a greater opportunity for postoperative bimodal hearing.

kn-title=Axion cosmology in the presence of nontrivial Nambu-Goldstone modes
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Axion cosmology is reexamined taking into account the effect of kinetic pseudo-NambuGoldstone modes. When Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry is broken by a chiral U(1) singlet, we find that the effect of the kinetic Nambu-Goldstone mode makes the axion dark matter untenable. When PQ symmetry is extended and is broken by two singlets, we find that axion cosmology works, but there are several differences from the axion cosmology studied in the literature. The differences are (1) an ordinary type of dark matter scaling of 1/cosmic scale factor(3) arising from a modulus field and not from the usual angular field, (2) the mass of the dark matter quantum in the ultralight range (10(-32)-10(-14)) eV, (3) the emergence of dark energy with a present density of order (a few meV)(4), consistent with observations, (4) the presence of a long-range spin-dependent force, and (5) slow-roll inflation after PQ symmetry breaking when conformal coupling to gravity is introduced.

kn-title=Successful use of dupilumab for egg-induced eosinophilic gastroenteritis with duodenal ulcer: a pediatric case report and review of literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Non-esophageal eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorder (non-EoE-EGID) is a rare disease in which eosinophils infiltrate parts of the gastrointestinal tract other than the esophagus; however, the number of patients with non-EoE-EGID has been increasing in recent years. Owing to its chronic course with repeated relapses, it can lead to developmental delays due to malnutrition, especially in pediatric patients. No established treatment exists for non-EoE-EGID, necessitating long-term systemic corticosteroid administration. Although the efficacy of dupilumab, an anti-IL-4/13 receptor monoclonal antibody, for eosinophilic esophagitis, has been reported, only few reports have demonstrated its efficacy in non-EoE EGIDs.<br>
Case presentation A 13-year-old boy developed non-EoE-EGID with duodenal ulcers, with chicken eggs as the trigger. He was successfully treated with an egg-free diet, proton pump inhibitors, and leukotriene receptor antagonists. However, at age 15, he developed worsening upper abdominal pain and difficulty eating. Blood analysis revealed eosinophilia; elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate; and elevated levels of C-reactive protein, total immunoglobulin E, and thymic and activation-regulated chemokines. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a duodenal ulcer with marked mucosal eosinophilic infiltration. Gastrointestinal symptoms persisted even after starting systemic steroids, making it difficult to reduce the steroid dose. Subcutaneous injection of dupilumab was initiated because of comorbid atopic dermatitis exacerbation. After 3 months, the gastrointestinal symptoms disappeared, and after 5 months, the duodenal ulcer disappeared and the eosinophil count decreased in the mucosa. Six months later, systemic steroids were discontinued, and the duodenal ulcer remained recurrence-free. The egg challenge test result was negative; therefore, the egg-free diet was discontinued. Blood eosinophil count and serum IL-5, IL-13, and eotaxin-3 levels decreased after dupilumab treatment. The serum levels of IL-5 and eotaxin-3 remained within normal ranges, although the blood eosinophil counts increased again after discontinuation of oral prednisolone.<br>
Conclusions Suppression of IL-4R/IL-13R-mediated signaling by dupilumab may improve abdominal symptoms and endoscopic and histologic findings in patients with non-EoE-EGID, leading to the discontinuation of systemic steroid administration and tolerance of causative foods.

kn-abstract=　本研究の目的は，絵画作品制作における素材としての支持体である画用紙を，生徒自ら選択する経験が表現活動に与える影響を明らかにすることである。本稿はその第一次研究にあたる。本稿では，創造性教育が重要視されるようになったと考えられる時期から現在に至るまでの，素材に関する先行研究の傾向について考察した。その結果，中学校教育での表現活動において，画用紙等の支持体を素材として認識する傾向が弱い現状を確認できた。しかし，創造性の育成を目指す学習での支持体の役割を先行研究から検討することはできなかった。そのため，第二次研究では，本稿での調査を踏まえ，中学生を対象とした実践研究の必要性を確認することができた。

en-title=Building a perspective on the innovation process of local public services
kn-title=地方公共サービス革新プロセスの視座の構築
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　When local governments develop public services, they often experience innovation processes. More often, the innovation processes referred to here seem to be the perceived needs for transformation faced with external pressures and the purposive responses to them. This article tries to depict this discourse from a different viewpoint. One of the perspectives that has been proposed so far is that the external environments are made up of multiple actors, and that the historical backgrounds and the relationships between these actors affect the structure of administrative organizations and the methods of providing public services. The transformation processes could be one-time events no matter how long the processes may take, but this article tries to argue they may connote a circular mechanism where both of the administrative organizations and the external actors feedback to each other. In order to elaborate this direction of theorizing, three steps are employed by applying existent literature of various types developed in rather a broader context of social sciences. First, if one of the goals of postmodern theorization is liberating the psychological energies of actors from the cramped social reality that structuralists postulated, then Actor-Network-Theory may be useful. Second, according to Sarasbathy’s research on entrepreneurial behaviors, the view that we effectuate our future through what we can do now is attractive in order to create a new discourse of social innovations, where we appreciate them as not springing out of nowhere all of sudden. Third, once this article accepts polyphonic views on social realities where congested discourses interact during abovementioned process, the role of civic entrepreneurs on the frontline can never be overstated enough. This is because such civic entrepreneurs could cooperate with minority opinions and raise them into broader contexts of dialogues within societies.

kn-title=Evidence on percutaneous radiofrequency and microwave ablation for liver metastases over the last decade
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose　This review aimed to summarize the treatment outcomes of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA) for metastatic liver tumors based on the findings of published studies over the last decade.<br>
Materials and methods　Literature describing the survival outcomes of ablation therapy for liver metastases was explored using the PubMed database on April 26, 2022, and articles published in 2012 or later were selected. The included studies met the following criteria: (i) English literature, (ii) original clinical studies, and (iii) literature describing overall survival (OS) of thermal ablation for metastatic liver tumors. All case reports and cohort studies with fewer than 20 patients and those that evaluated ablation for palliative purposes were excluded.<br>
Results　RFA was the most commonly used method for ablation, while MWA was used in several recent studies. RFA and MWA for liver metastases from various primary tumors have been reported; however, majority of the studies focused on colorectal cancer. The local control rate by RFA and MWA varied widely among the studies, ranging approximately 50?90%. Five-year survival rates of 20?60% have been reported following ablation for colorectal liver metastases by a number of studies, and several reports of 10-year survival rates were also noted.<br>
Conclusion　Comparative studies of local therapies for colorectal liver metastases demonstrated that RFA provides comparable survival outcomes to surgical metastasectomy and stereotactic body radiation therapy.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=To determine the endoscopic and clinical features of localized gastric amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, we retrospectively examined the characteristics of nine patients (eight men and one woman) encountered by the hospitals in our network. Lesions were predominantly flat and depressed with surface vascular dilatation (n=5); others were characterized by subepithelial lesions (n=2), mucosal color change (n=1), and a mass-like morphology with swollen mucosal folds (n=1). Colonoscopy (n=7), video capsule enteroscopy (n=2), serum (n=5) and urine immunoelectrophoresis (n=4), and bone marrow examination (n=3) were performed to exclude involvement of organs other than the stomach. As treatment for gastric lesions of AL amyloidosis, one patient each underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (n=1) and argon plasma coagulation (n=1), while the remaining seven patients underwent no specific treatment. During a mean follow-up of 4.2 years, one patient died 3.2 years after diagnosis, but the cause of death, which occurred in another hospital, was unknown. The remaining eight patients were alive at the last visit. In conclusion, although localized gastric AL amyloidosis can show various macroscopic features on esophagogastroduodenoscopy, flat, depressed lesions with vascular dilatation on the surface are predominant.

kn-title=Clinical Characteristics of Retroperitoneal Fibrosis Patients at a Tertiary Hospital in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare cause of hydronephrosis and progressive renal dysfunction with unidentified origin. RPF is categorized into idiopathic RPF with/without immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease (IgG4-RD), and secondary RPF. Identifying the underlying cause is challenging and often associated with delayed diagnosis or therapeutic interventions. We investigated RPF’s clinical characteristics based on different etiologies and factors that may help distinguish the underlying causes. We analyzed the cases of 49 patients with RPF that was radiographically diagnosed at our institution (2008-2022). The cohort was 77.6% males; 75.5% had idiopathic RPF and 24.5% had secondary RPF. Among the idiopathic patients, 54.1% had IgG4-RD. The patients were likely to have abdominal pain, lower back pain/lumbago, and constitutional symptoms including generalized fatigue and fever. The idiopathic patients were likely to have higher serum IgG4 and IgG levels and lower serum C3 levels compared to secondary RPF. The IgG4-RPF patients were likely to have higher serum IgG4 levels and lower serum C-reactive protein, ferritin, and C3 levels compared to the idiopathic RPF patients without IgG4-RD. These findings might reflect underlying systemic inflammatory responses. Comprehensive laboratory testing, including serum inflammatory markers and immunological panels, is recommended for radiologically diagnosed RPF patients.

kn-title=Associations among Preoperative Malnutrition, Muscle Loss, and Postoperative Walking Ability in Intertrochanteric Fractures: A Retrospective Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Sarcopenia and malnutrition are increasing in older adults and are reported risk factors for functional impairment after hip fracture surgery. This study aimed to investigate the associations between skeletal muscle mass loss, malnutrition, and postoperative walking ability in patients with hip fracture. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent intertrochanteric fracture surgery at our institute. The psoas muscle index, controlling nutritional status score, and functional ambulation category (FAC) were used to evaluate skeletal muscle mass, nutritional status, and walking ability, respectively. Six months after surgery, walking ability was assessed as either “gait disturbance” or “independent gait”. Multivariate binomial logistic regression analysis, with skeletal muscle mass, nutritional status, and other factors, was used to predict the risk of being assigned to the gait disturbance group. This study included 95 patients (mean age, 85.2 years; 70 women). Sixty-six patients had low skeletal muscle mass, 35 suffered from malnutrition, and 28 had both. Malnutrition and low skeletal muscle mass were significantly associated with postoperative gait disturbance (FAC < 3). Preoperative low skeletal muscle mass and malnutrition were risk factors for postoperative poor walking ability. Further preventive interventions focusing on skeletal muscle mass and nutritional status are required.

kn-abstract=This study aimed to clarify neurological differences among the epiconus, conus medullaris, and cauda equina syndromes. Eighty-seven patients who underwent surgery for acute thoracolumbar spinal injuries were assessed. We defined the epiconus as the region from the terminal end of the spinal cord to the proximal 1.0 to 2.25 vertebral bodies, the conus medullaris as the region proximal to < 1.0 vertebral bodies, and the cauda equina as the distal part of the nerve roots originating from the spinal cord. On the basis of the distance from the terminal end of the spinal cord to the narrowest level of the spinal canal, the narrowest levels were ordered as follows: the epiconus followed by the conus medullaris and cauda equina. The narrowest levels were the epiconus in 22 patients, conus medullaris in 37 patients, and cauda equina in 25 patients. On admission, significantly more patients had a narrowed epiconus of Frankel grades A-C than a narrowed cauda equina. At the final follow-up, there were no significant differences in neurological recovery among those with epiconus, conus medullaris, or cauda equina syndrome. Anatomically classifying the narrowest lesion is useful for clarifying the differences and similarities among these three syndromes.

kn-title=Participation in the Setouchi Triennale and the Health of Residents in Naoshima: A Cross-Sectional Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Arts festivals have become increasingly popular in various parts of Japan in recent years. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between arts festival activities participation at the Setouchi Triennale and the health of residents in the town of Naoshima. This was a cross-sectional study. Questionnaires were distributed to all residents of Naoshima who were 20 years old or older (n=2,588). We analyzed responses from 708 people. The associations between arts festival activities participation and health (measured by self-rated health) were analyzed using logistic regression analysis as the primary outcome. Kessler’s psychological distress scale scores were also analyzed in the same manner as the primary outcome. The participating group had an adjusted odds ratio of 1.86 (95% confidence interval: 1.03-3.33) for higher self-rated health compared with those who did not participate. Kessler’s psychological distress scale results showed that the participating group had an adjusted odds ratio of 3.23 (95% confidence interval: 1.19-8.81) for lower psychological distress compared with those who did not participate. In conclusion, arts festival activities participation was associated with higher self-rated health and lower psychological distress. However, caution must be taken in regard to generalizability and causality when interpreting these results.

kn-title=An Assessment Rubric for a Resident Training Program in Surgery: A Single-Institution Experience
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Using a Collaborative Action Research model, our research team established a one-month clinical resident training program for first- and second-year clinical residents. We created and implemented an assessment rubric to assess the residents’ progress toward independent practice in surgery, and thereby, to evaluate the program itself. The program included training in three areas: basic techniques and procedures in the operating room, surgical ward management, and academic activities. The rubric measured the residents’ performance according to three achievement levels: Level 1 (demonstration), Level 2 (active help) and Level 3 (passive help). The program and rubric implementation began in June 2019 and continued until March 2020, when the program outcomes and shortcomings were analyzed. Among nineteen clinical residents, a total of nine clinical residents participated in the study. Most participants reached achievement Level 3 for their performance of basic techniques in the operating room. Finally, we discussed ideas for improvement and drafted plans for an improved rubric to complete the action research cycle. Our research team found the rubric to be a useful tool in evaluating the status of the new clinical resident training program.

kn-title=Lip pleomorphic adenomas: case series and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most frequent benign salivary gland tumor, but a lip PA is rare. Although this tumor may be definitively diagnosed by imaging or a tissue biopsy if it is reasonably large, PAs on the lip are relatively small, and they present findings that are similar to those of other lip lesions, which can make a preoperative diagnosis difficult.<br>
Methods: We analyzed all PAs in the oral region and lesions on the lips treated in our department over the past 20 years, and we discuss them together with the relevant literature.<br>
Results: We found that 11.8% (n=6) of the PAs occurred on a lip (upper lip: 9.8%, lower lip: 2.0%), and ~1% of all mass lesions of the lips were PAs. The average size of the lip PAs was 1.5±0.7 cm (range, 0.7?2.2 cm). For preoperative diagnostic assistance, ultrasonography (US) (n=4), magnetic resonance (MR) (n=3), or no imaging (n=2) was used. An excisional biopsy was performed in all cases, and to date, no recurrence or malignant transformation has been observed.<br>
Conclusions: Lip PA is relatively rare. Because almost all of these lesions are small, a preoperative diagnosis is more difficult compared to palatal lesions. This tumor is also prone to long-term neglect and has the potential for recurrence and malignant transformation. It is thus necessary to perform an excision that includes the capsule and surrounding tissues, and careful postoperative follow-up should be continued.

kn-abstract=A 41-year-old woman showed a palpable mass at the superonasal orbital edge on the right side. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a lobulated fluid-containing tubular mass which extended anteriorly to posteriorly along the medial orbital wall, nasal to the eyeball. She was followed once a year for 8 years until the age of 49 years when she decided to undergo surgical resection because of the enlarged mass. The lobulated large mass was resected and the pathology showed sparsely distributed spindle cells, positive for CD34, in alcian blue-positive mucous substances, indicative of myxoma. Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging showed residual lobulated tubular mass along the optic nerve on the medial side and superior to the eyeball. The residual orbital mass showed stable structure with more evident connection with the ethmoid sinus lesion, suggestive of the ethmoid origin, in 12 years until the age of 61 years. In the review of 20 patients with orbital myxomas in the literature, in addition to this case, roughly classified locations in the orbit were retrobulbar in 8 patients, on the lateral side of the orbit in 4, on the superior side in 6, on the medial side in 1 (this patient), and in the orbit with no specific description in 2. In pathological examinations, immunohistochemistry was not done in 8 patients, done but all negative in 2, and positive in 11 patients: nerve sheath myxoma was diagnosed in 3 patients based on positive S100 staining. Orbital myxoma is rare but considered in differential diagnosis of orbital masses.

kn-title=An Unusual Presentation of Chest Pain and Laryngeal Discomfort in a Pregnant Woman: A Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Intramural esophageal dissection (IED), characterized by bleeding into the submucosal space, leads to mucosal separation and dissection. The most prevalent symptoms are sudden chest or retrosternal pain, hematemesis, and dysphagia. Therefore, acute coronary syndrome and aortic dissection are among its most notable differential diagnoses. A 31-year-old pregnant woman presented with acute chest pain, laryngeal discomfort, and hematemesis. Emergency esophagogastroscopy revealed longitudinal mucosal dissection (upper esophagus to esophagogastric junction). The patient was successfully treated by avoiding the ingestion of solid foods. Clinicians should consider a diagnosis of IED for pregnant patients with acute chest pain, especially if hematemesis is present.

kn-title=Usefulness of Force-Controlled Pelvic Stress Radiograph in the Evaluation and Treatment of Fragility Fractures of the Pelvis in Geriatric Patients: A Pilot Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of force-controlled pelvic stress radiographs in the evaluation and treatment of fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) using a functional treatment strategy. We conducted a retrospective study of 55 geriatric patients with FFP who underwent pelvic stress radiographs on admission. The differences in the sacral width, pelvic ring width, and medial femoral head width between the radiographs with and without the Sam Sling II M size were defined as Δ sacral width, Δ pelvic ring width, and Δ medial femoral head width, respectively. We used Pearson’s correlation test to assess the relationship between the degree of radiographic instability and the Johns Hopkins highest level of mobility scale (JH-HLM) at 10-days postadmission. Conventional receiver-operating-characteristic curve analysis was used to identify cases requiring surgery using the best cutoff value for radiographic instability. The JH-HLM was significantly correlated with Δ sacral width (r=?0.401, p=0.017), but not with Δ pelvic ring width (r=?0.298, p=0.080) nor with Δ medial femoral head width (r= ?0.261, p=0.128). The best cutoff value of Δ sacral width in identifying surgical cases was 10.7 mm (sensitivity 75.0%, specificity 98.0%). Force-controlled pelvic stress radiographs could be helpful in assessing the need for surgery on admission.

kn-title=Image-Guided Ablation Therapies for Extrahepatic Metastases from Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Simple Summary Although systemic therapies are a common treatment for patients with extrahepatic metastases from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), local ablative therapies, such as radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoablation, can be used in select patients who have metastases to the lung, bone, and other sites with curative or palliative intent. This review summarizes the currently available evidence on image-guided thermal ablation therapies for extrahepatic metastases from HCC. The most common sites of extrahepatic metastases from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are the lungs, intra-abdominal lymph nodes, bones, and adrenal glands, in that order. Although systemic therapies are a common treatment for patients with extrahepatic metastases, local ablative therapies for the extrahepatic metastatic lesions can be performed in selected patients. In this article, the literature on image-guided thermal ablation for metastasis to each organ was reviewed to summarize the current evidence. Radiofrequency ablation was the most commonly evaluated technique, and microwave ablation, cryoablation, and percutaneous ethanol injection were also utilized. The local control rate of thermal ablation therapy was relatively favorable, at approximately 70-90% in various organs. The survival outcomes varied among the studies, and several studies reported that the absence of viable intrahepatic lesions was associated with improved survival rates. Since only retrospective data from relatively small studies has been available thus far, more robust studies with prospective designs and larger cohorts are desired to prove the usefulness of thermal ablation for extrahepatic metastases from HCC.

kn-title=Bilateral Optic Neuritis and Hypophysitis With Diabetes Insipidus 1 Month After COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine: Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Either optic neuritis (neuropathy) or hypopituitarism has been known to occur separately after COVID-19 vaccination. In this report, we describe the rare combination of hypophysitis and optic neuritis which occurred after COVID-19 vaccination. A 74-year-old woman began to have thirst, polydipsia, and polyuria, and was diagnosed as central diabetes insipidus 1 month after the fourth COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) disclosed the thickened pituitary stalk and enlarged pituitary gland with high contrast enhancement as well as the absence of high-intensity signals in the posterior pituitary lobe on the T1-weighted image, leading to the diagnosis of lymphocytic hypophysitis. She was well with desmopressin nasal spray until further 2 months later, when she developed bilateral optic neuritis, together with gait disturbance, intention tremor of the upper extremities, urinary retention, constipation, abnormal sensation in the distal part of the lower extremities, and moderate hemiplegia on the left side. Autoantibodies, including anti-aquaporin 4 (AQP4) and anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), were all negative. She showed multifocal spinal cord lesions on MRI and oligoclonal bands in the cerebrospinal fluid obtained by spinal tap, and so underwent steroid pulse therapy with methylprednisolone in the tentative diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, resulting in visual acuity recovery and alleviation of neurological symptoms. In the literature review, the combination of optic neuritis and hypophysitis, mostly with diabetes insipidus, was reported in 15 patients as case reports before the years of COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 vaccination would trigger the onset of hypophysitis and optic neuritis in this patient.

kn-title=Bilateral Lacrimal Gland Mantle Cell Lymphoma in 11-Year Follow-Up: Case Report and Review of 48 Cases With Ocular Adnexal Presentation in the Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 63-year-old woman, with 11-year history of breast cancer, showed bilateral lacrimal gland enlargement on magnetic resonance imaging. Gallium-67 scintigraphy, as the standard at that time in 2004, demonstrated abnormally high uptake only in bilateral lacrimal glands. The lacrimal glands were extirpated and the pathological diagnosis was mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). She underwent bilateral orbital radiation, based on no uptake of gallium-67 in other sites of the body. In a month, bone marrow biopsy revealed the infiltration with MCL, positive for cyclin D1. She showed hepatic lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly, and so received 2 cycles of alternating Hyper-CVAD therapy and high-dose methotrexate with cytarabine, combined with rituximab, in 2 months, leading to complete remission. She underwent autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and was well until the age of 68 years when she showed a recurrent intratracheal submucosal lesion of lymphoma and underwent one course of reduced-dose CHOP combined with rituximab. Next year, the left rib resection revealed the metastasis of breast adenocarcinoma, leading to daily oral letrozole. Further 2 years later, computed tomographic scan demonstrated multiple submucosal nodular lesions in the trachea and bronchi, together with cervical and supraclavicular lymphadenopathy, and intratracheal lesion biopsy and bone marrow biopsy proved the involvement with MCL. She underwent 2 courses of bendamustine and rituximab, resulting in complete remission but died of metastatic breast cancer at the age of 74 years. Clinical features in 48 previous cases with ocular adnexal MCL in the literature were summarized in this study.

kn-title=Significance of the comprehensive geriatric assessment in the administration of chemotherapy to older adults with cancer: Recommendations by the Japanese Geriatric Oncology Guideline Committee
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: The number of older patients with cancer is expected to continue to increase owing to the aging population. Recently, the usefulness of geriatric assessment (GA) conducted by multiple staff members from different medical backgrounds has been reported; however, a consensus on the effectiveness of GA has not yet been achieved.<br>
Materials and Methods: We, as the Japanese Geriatric Oncology Guideline Committee for elderly patients with cancer, conducted a literature search of randomized controlled trials published before August 2021 that used GA or comprehensive GA (CGA) as an intervention for patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy. As the key outcomes for answering the clinical question, we focused on survival benefit, adverse events, and quality of life (QOL). After a systematic review of these studies, the expert panel member developed recommendations according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system.<br>
Results: For older patients with cancer, GA or CGA is suggested during or before chemotherapy (weakly recommended). Chemotherapy-induced adverse events were significantly reduced by GA/CGA interventions without any adverse effects on survival. Health-related QOL tended to improve with the GA/CGA interventions.<br>
Discussion: Although, in our opinion, GA/CGA does require time and resources, it poses no harm patients. Therefore, we suggest expanding the human resources and educating skills of medical providers for clinical implementation of GA/CGA.

kn-title=Oncologic and Safety Outcomes for Endoscopic Surgery Versus Radical Nephroureterectomy for Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We systematically reviewed the literature and summarized oncologic and safety outcomes for endoscopic management (EM) compared to radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Studies comparing oncologic and/or safety results for EM versus RNU in patients with UTUC were included in our review. Overall, 13 studies met the criteria, and five studies were included in a meta-analysis using adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and bladder recurrence-free survival (BRFS). EM was associated similar OS (HR 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.75?2.16), CSS (HR 1.37, 95% CI 0.99?1.91), and BRFS (HR 0.98, 95% CI 0.61?1.55) to RNU, while 28?85% of patients treated with EM experienced upper tract recurrence across the studies. EM required more interventions with a higher cumulative risk of complications and lower likelihood of renal preservation. In summary, EM for low-grade UTUC had comparable survival outcomes to RNU at the cost of higher local recurrence rates resulting in a need for long-term rigorous surveillance and repeated interventions.

kn-title=ANCA-associated vasculitis with scleritis, corneal melt, and perforation rescued by rituximab: Case report and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Key Clinical Message: Patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis, specifically with myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA, would have a risk for developing corneal melt and perforation abruptly in a short period. It is desirable to have a team of collaboration of rheumatologists and other specialties.<br>
Abstract: An 80-year old man who had been diagnosed 5.5?years previously as ANCA-associated vasculitis by temporal artery biopsy developed corneal melt and perforation with scleritis in both eyes. He underwent successful cataract surgery and retained ambulatory vision with the aid of intravenous rituximab. Two additional patients with similar manifestations were found in the literature.

kn-title=Utility of Comprehensive Genomic Profiling for Precise Diagnosis of Pediatric-Type Diffuse High-Grade Glioma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In the current World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors, comprehensive genetic and epigenetic analyses are considered essential for precise diagnosis. A 14-year-old male patient who presented with a cerebellar tumor was initially diagnosed with glioblastoma and treated with radiation and concomitant temozolomide chemotherapy after resection. During maintenance temozolomide therapy, a new contrast-enhanced lesion developed in the bottom of the cavity formed by the resection. A second surgery was performed, but the histological findings in specimens from the second surgery were different from those of the first surgery. Although genome-wide DNA methylation profiling was conducted using frozen tissue for a precise diagnosis, the proportion of tumor cells was insufficient and only normal cerebellum was observed. We then performed comprehensive genetic analysis using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections, which revealed MYCN amplification without alteration of IDH1, IDH2, or Histone H3. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with pediatric-type diffuse high-grade glioma, H3-wildtype and IDH-wildtype. In conclusion, comprehensive genetic and epigenetic analysis should be considered in pediatric brain tumor cases.

kn-title=Usefulness of Simple Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging for Head and Neck Tumors: An Early Clinical Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Diffusion kurtosis (DK) imaging (DKI), a type of restricted diffusion-weighted imaging, has been reported to be useful for tumor diagnoses in clinical studies. We developed a software program to simultaneously create DK images with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps and conducted an initial clinical study. Multi-shot echo-planar diffusion-weighted images were obtained at b-values of 0, 400, and 800 sec/mm2 for simple DKI, and DK images were created simultaneously with the ADC map. The usefulness of the DK image and ADC map was evaluated using a pixel analysis of all pixels and a median analysis of the pixels of each case. Tumor and normal tissues differed significantly in both pixel and median analyses. In the pixel analysis, the area under the curve was 0.64 for the mean kurtosis (MK) value and 0.77 for the ADC value. In the median analysis, the MK value was 0.74, and the ADC value was 0.75. The MK and ADC values correlated moderately in the pixel analysis and strongly in the median analysis. Our simple DKI system created DK images simultaneously with ADC maps, and the obtained MK and ADC values were useful for differentiating head and neck tumors from normal tissue.

kn-title=Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis after lung transplantation: Two case reports and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) affecting transplanted lungs is not well recognized. Herein, we report two cases of PAP after lung transplantation (LTx). The first case was a 4-year-old boy with hereditary pulmonary fibrosis who underwent bilateral LTx and presented with respiratory distress on postoperative day (POD) 23. He was initially treated for acute rejection, died due to infection on POD 248, and was diagnosed with PAP at autopsy. The second case involved a 52-year-old man with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis who underwent bilateral LTx. On POD 99, chest computed tomography revealed ground-glass opacities. Bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchial biopsy led to a diagnosis of PAP. Follow-up with immunosuppression tapering resulted in clinical and radiological improvement. PAP after lung transplantation mimics common acute rejection; however, is potentially transient or resolved with tapering immunosuppression, as observed in the second case. Transplant physicians should be aware of this rare complication to avoid misconducting immunosuppressive management.

kn-title=Recent Advances in Apical Periodontitis Treatment: A Narrative Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory response caused by pulp infection. It induces bone resorption in the apical and periapical regions of the tooth. The most conservative approach to treat this condition is nonsurgical endodontic treatment. However, clinical failure has been reported with this approach; thus, alternative procedures are required. This review highlights recent literature regarding advanced approaches for the treatment of apical periodontitis. Various therapies, including biological medications, antioxidants, specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators, and stem cell therapy, have been tested to increase the success rate of treatment for apical periodontitis. Some of these approaches remain in the in vivo phase of research, while others have just entered the translational research phase to validate clinical application. However, a detailed understanding of the molecular mechanisms that occur during development of the immunoinflammatory reaction in apical periodontitis remains unclear. The aim of this review was to summarize advanced approaches for the treatment of apical periodontitis. Further research can confirm the potential of these alternative nonsurgical endodontic treatment approaches.

kn-title=Lenvatinib Administration for Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma with Brain Metastasis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We describe the use of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor lenvatinib in a patient with brain tumor metastases from anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC). A 52-year-old Japanese male presented with consciousness loss. Imaging revealed a thyroid tumor and multiple brain lesions. After the brain tumor’s resection, pathology results provided the diagnosis of ATC. Total thyroidectomy was performed, followed by whole-brain irradiation. Additional brain lesions later developed, and lenvatinib therapy was initiated with no remarkable complications. However, the treatment effects were limited, and the patient died 2 months after starting lenvatinib, 202 days after the initial brain surgery. Relevant literature is discussed.

kn-title=Case Series of Granulicatella Bacteremia: A Single-centered, Five-year Retrospective Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Granulicatella species are rare, nutritionally variant streptococci that cause infective endocarditis. Their clinical and microbiological characteristics remain unknown. We reviewed five years of Granulicatella cases in our hospital database (Jan 2017-Jun 2022), finding 6 Granulicatella adiacens cases and 1 Granulicatella elegans case. Clinical backgrounds and bacteremia sources were diverse; 3 cases developed polymicrobial bacteremia. Antimicrobial testing showed non-susceptibility to penicillin G in 4 of 7 cases (57.1%), and high susceptibility to carbapenems and vancomycin in all cases. Determining optimal antibiotic therapy for Granulicatella infections is vital in this era of antimicrobial resistance.

kn-title=Fracture Line Distributions of Undisplaced Distal Radius Fractures in Relation to Rupture of the Extensor Pollicis Longus Tendon
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Rupture of the extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon is a known complication after undisplaced distal radius fracture (DRF). However, no report has revealed the relationship between EPL tendon rupture and the fracture pattern. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the characteristics of fractures at risk of EPL tendon rupture using fracture line mapping of undisplaced DRFs. This study used computed tomography imaging data of undisplaced DRFs with (n=18) and without EPL tendon rupture (n=52). Fracture lines obtained from 3D reconstruction data were drawn manually after matching with a 2D template wrist model. Fracture maps represented the fracture line distribution by superimposing the fracture lines of all 70 patients. Heat maps showed the relative frequency of the fracture lines as a gradual color change. Fracture lines of cases with EPL tendon rupture were concentrated in the proximal border of Lister’s tubercle. By contrast, fracture lines of cases without EPL tendon rupture were relatively dispersed.

kn-title=Complications of Percutaneous Cryoablation for Renal Tumors and Methods for Avoiding Them
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Percutaneous cryoablation of renal tumors is widely used because of its high efficacy and safety. This high safety can be attributed, at least in part, to the visibility of the ablated area as an “ice ball”. This therapy has fewer complications (incidence, 0-7.2%) and is less invasive than surgery. Minor bleeding is inevitable in most kidney-related procedures, and indeed the most common complication of this therapy is bleeding (hematoma and hematuria). However, patients require treatment such as transfusion or transarterial embolization in only 0-4% of bleeding cases. Various other complications such as ureteral or collecting system injury, bowel injury, nerve injury, skin injury, infection, pneumothorax, and tract seeding also occur, but they are usually minor and asymptomatic. However, operators should know and avoid the various complications associated with this therapy. This study aimed to summarize the complications of percutaneous cryoablation for renal tumors and provide some techniques for achieving safe procedures.

en-title=Literature Reviews on Sexual Harassment at School in Japan
kn-title=就学時期のセクシュアルハラスメントに関する文献研究

en-abstract=Sexual harassment (SH) during the school years is one factor that hinders children's proper development. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT) (2020) has been strengthening education and awarenessraising as "life safety education" to eradicate sexual crimes and sexual violence against children. It has also been promoting correct understanding and knowledge of SH. This paper reviews previous studies in SH during the school period and discusses future research issues. Although the experiences of SH during the school period are known to affect self-esteem and motivation to learn, there are few surveys of sexual harassment. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT) or other government agencies had not surveyed the number of cases of SH. The only speculation is based on the results of independent surveys by local boards of education, the number of consultations and the number of disciplinary actions related to indecent cases. Research issues on SH during the schooling period include understanding the frequency of SH and clarify the relationship between the experience of SH victimization and the psychological or social adjustment of the victim using statistical methods.
kn-abstract=　児童生徒の健全な発達を阻害する一要因として就学時期におけるセクシュアルハラスメント(以下，SH)がある。文部科学省(2020)は，児童生徒への性犯罪・性暴力を根絶するため，「生命(いのち)の安全教育」として教育・啓発を強化し，SH についても正しい理解と知識を促している。本論文では，就学時期におけるSH について，先行研究や取組の動向をまとめ，今後の研究課題について述べた。就学時期におけるSH は，その被害経験が自尊心や学習意欲に影響を及ぼす可能性が示唆されているが，その発生件数について政府による一律的な調査は行われておらず，各自治体教育委員会独自の調査結果および相談件数やわいせつ事例に係る懲戒免職処分の件数から推測するにとどまっていた。就学時期におけるSHの研究課題として，SH の発生頻度を把握することや，SH の被害経験と被害者の心理的または社会的な適応との関連について，統計的手法を用いて客観的に検討することが挙げられる。

kn-title=Autophagy as a potential mechanism underlying the biological effect of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 on periodontitis: a narrative review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The major active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D3), is known for its wide bioactivity in periodontal tissues. Although the exact mechanisms underlying its protective action against periodontitis remain unclear, recent studies have shown that 1,25D3 regulates autophagy. Autophagy is vital for intracellular pathogen invasion control, inflammation regulation, and bone metabolic balance in periodontal tissue homeostasis, and its regulation could be an interesting pathway for future periodontal studies. Since vitamin D deficiency is a worldwide health problem, its role as a potential regulator of autophagy provides new insights into periodontal diseases. Based on this premise, this narrative literature review aimed to investigate the possible connection between 1,25D3 and autophagy in periodontitis. A comprehensive literature search was conducted on PubMed using the following keywords (e.g., vitamin D, autophagy, periodontitis, pathogens, epithelial cells, immunity, inflammation, and bone loss). In this review, the latest studies on the protective action of 1,25D3 against periodontitis and the regulation of autophagy by 1,25D3 are summarized, and the potential role of 1,25D3-activated autophagy in the pathogenesis of periodontitis is analyzed. 1,25D3 can exert a protective effect against periodontitis through different signaling pathways in the pathogenesis of periodontitis, and at least part of this regulatory effect is achieved through the activation of the autophagic response. This review will help clarify the relationship between 1,25D3 and autophagy in the homeostasis of periodontal tissues and provide perspectives for researchers to optimize prevention and treatment strategies in the future.

kn-title=Polyploidy before and after domestication of crop species
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Recent advances in the genomics of polyploid species answer some of the long-standing questions about the role of polyploidy in crop species. Here, we summarize the current literature to reexamine scenarios in which polyploidy played a role both before and after domestication. The prevalence of polyploidy can help to explain environmental robustness in agroecosystems. This review also clarifies the molecular basis of some agriculturally advantageous traits of polyploid crops, including yield increments in polyploid cotton via subfunctionalization, modification of a separated sexuality to selfing in polyploid persimmon via neofunctionalization, and transition to a selfing system via nonfunctionalization combined with epistatic interaction between duplicated S-loci. The rapid progress in genomics and genetics is discussed along with how this will facilitate functional studies of understudied polyploid crop species.

kn-title=Osteonecrosis of the Jaw in Two Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Not Treated with a Bisphosphonate
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a side effect in patients taking bone-modifying agents (BMAs), which are highly beneficial for treating osteoporosis and cancer. Bisphosphonates are prescribed to treat secondary osteoporosis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We recently encountered two unusual cases of intraoral ONJ in RA patients who had not been treated with a BMA and did not have features of methotrexate- associated lymphoproliferative disorder. Their ONJ stage II bone exposures were treated by conservative therapy, providing good prognoses. These cases indicate that ONJ can occur in RA patients not treated with bisphosphonates. Several risk factors are discussed.

kn-title=A Case of Radiation-Induced Osteosarcoma with RB1 Gene Alteration Treated by Skull Base Surgery and Craniofacial Reconstruction
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 35-year-old female presented with headache, photophobia and developed sudden loss of vision after having undergone right-side ophthalmectomy and radiochemotherapy for retinoblastoma in infancy. A neoplastic lesion was found in the left middle cranial fossa and was surgically removed. The diagnosis was radiation-induced osteosarcoma with RB1 gene alteration. Although she received chemotherapy for the residual tumor, it progressed 17 months later. Maximal surgical resection with craniofacial reconstruction was required. We utilized two three-dimensional models for surgical planning. She was discharged without neurological deficits other than loss of light perception subsequent to left ophthalmectomy. In cases where retinoblastoma is treated with radiotherapy, long-term follow-up is necessary to monitor for radiation-induced tumor development.

kn-title=Scattered Tiny Whitish Protrusions in the Stomach Are a Clue to the Diagnosis of Autoimmune Gastritis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Herein, we report two patients with autoimmune gastritis who had undergone multiple esophagogastroduodenoscopy procedures for 17 and 9 years, respectively, before their diagnosis. Instead, they had been diagnosed with and treated for Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis. The correct diagnosis was made when scatterings of tiny whitish protrusions in the gastric mucosa were detected on esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Our findings suggest that scattered tiny whitish bumps may be a clue to the diagnosis of autoimmune gastritis.

kn-title=Endoscopic ablation therapy for the pancreatic neoplasms
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Recently, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided ablation therapy has been reported as a less invasive therapy for patients with pancreatic neoplasms. Some ablation techniques, including injective ablation (using ethanol or other ablative agents), radiofrequency ablation (RFA), photodynamic therapy, and laser ablation, have been described in the literature. Among these, injective ablation and RFA are more frequently used for treating pancreatic neoplasms. Few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of EUS-guided ethanol ablation (EUS-EA) for potentially malignant solid neoplasms (neuroendocrine neoplasms or solid pseudopapillary neoplasms) and have reported a complete response (CR) rate of 60-80%. In addition, the CR rate after EUS-RFA for these lesions has been reported to be 55-100%, with no additional procedure-related adverse events (AEs). Regarding the amelioration of the symptoms of an insulinoma, the success rates of both the therapies were found to be excellent. Regarding complete tumor ablation, EUS-RFA appeared to be superior to EUS-EA. Although EUS-RFA has been reported as a safe treatment for pancreatic cancers, its effectiveness remains inadequate. Some studies have examined the effectiveness of EUS-guided injection ablation therapy for pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) and have reported CR rates that range from 35% to 79%. Alcohol-free chemotherapeutic agent ablation appears to be effective, with a low risk of AEs. However, studies on the effectiveness of EUS-RFA for PCNs are limited. In the future, EUS-guided ablation therapy could become a more widely used approach for potentially malignant and malignant pancreatic lesions.

kn-title=Endoscopic treatment for duodenal perforation due to biliary stent dislocation: A case report and brief review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Rationale:Duodenal wall perforation by a dislocated biliary stent placed for biliary structure is rare but can be life-threatening. There are few reports on the management of stent-related duodenal perforation. Patient concerns:Three cases included in this study had undergone endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with placement of a plastic stent for biliary stricture. Two cases had symptoms (fever or abdominal pain), while other case showed no symptom after biliary stent placement. Diagnoses:Dislocation of plastic stents was revealed on computed tomography or endoscopic images. Two patients were diagnosed with duodenal perforation due to distal migration of long stents with a straight shape on the distal side. One patient was diagnosed with fistula formation between the intrahepatic bile duct and duodenum due to perforation of a pigtail stent. Interventions:All cases could successfully be managed endoscopically with closure by hemoclips or stent replacement. Outcomes:All 3 cases were improved after endoscopic treatment without any subsequent intervention. Lessons:Longer stents with a straight distal side are associated with a higher risk of duodenal perforation. Endoscopic management is appropriate as a first-line approach for a clinically stable patient. At the time of stent placement, we should pay attention to the length and type of stent.

kn-title=Salvage Surgery for Symptomatic Recurrence of Retro-Odontoid Pseudotumor after a C1 Laminectomy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We provide the first report of successful salvage surgery for a post-C1 laminectomy symptomatic recurrence of a retro-odontoid pseudotumor (ROP) that caused myelopathy. The 72-year-old Japanese woman presented with an ROP causing symptomatic cervical myelopathy. With ultrasonography support, we performed the enucleation of the ROP via a transdural approach and fusion surgery for the recurrence of the mass. At the final observation 2-year post-surgery, MRI demonstrated the mass’s regression and spinal cord decompression, and the patient’s symptoms had improved. Our strategy is an effective option for a symptomatic recurrence of ROP.

kn-title=A Case of Paraplegia Treated with Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage and Permissive Hypertension after Graft Replacement of the Ascending Aorta and the Total Aortic Arch for Acute Aortic Dissection Stanford Type A
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Paraplegia after an operation for acute aortic dissection Stanford type A (AADA) is fairly uncommon, and there is no consensus about optimal treatment. We present a case in which cerebrospinal fluid drainage (CSFD) and permissive hypertension were used for treatment of paraplegia. When the patient showed complete bilateral paraplegia after operation for AADA, we immediately began CSFD and maintained mean arterial blood pressure at over 90 mmHg. His neurological deficit gradually recovered, and he was eventually able to walk without support. The combination of CSFD and permissive hypertension could be a first-line emergent treatment for postoperative paraplegia after AADA surgery.

kn-title=A Rare Case of Idiopathic Spinal Cord Herniation Treated by DuraGen? Collagen Matrix Graft
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a rare case of idiopathic spinal cord herniation (ISCH) with a history of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. ISCH is a protrusion of the spinal cord through a dural defect. Thin constructive interference in steady-state (CISS) images clearly demonstrated the herniated cord in the present case. The myelopathy worsened and the patient underwent surgery for reduction of herniated spinal cord; the dural defect was filled by placing collagen matrix graft (DuraGen<sup>?</sup>) between the inner and outer dural layers. The patient’s symptoms have improved without relapse for 8 months since surgery. This method may be a good surgical option for cases of spinal cord herniation.

kn-title=Idiopathic Pneumonia Syndrome Refractory to Ruxolitinib after Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide-based Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Lung Pathological Findings from an Autopsy Case
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 69-year-old Japanese man with acute leukemia received post-transplant cyclophosphamide-based haploidentical stem cell transplantation (PTCY-haplo-SCT) but was readmitted with dyspnea and ground-glass-opacities of the lungs. Bronchoscopy showed inflammatory changes with no signs of infection. He received steroids but required intubation as his condition deteriorated. In addition to antithymocyte globulin and cyclophosphamide, we administered ruxolitinib but failed to save him. Autopsy findings revealed fibrotic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) without evidence of organizing pneumonia or infection. Thus, we diagnosed idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS). As far as our knowledge, this is the first case of IPS with NSIP histology after PTCY-haplo-SCT.

kn-title=Traditional Chinese Medicines and Prescriptions Brought from China to Japan by a Monk (Jianzhen, Japanese: Ganjin): A Historical Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=(1) Background: Japanese Kampo medicine has its origin in ancient Chinese medicine. In 742, a Tang Dynasty monk named Jianzhen (Ganjin) was invited by Japanese clerics to visit Japan and teach commandments in Buddhism. Because of the dangers of the voyage and also other obstacles, he took 11 years to reach Japan on the sixth voyage and he was blind when he arrived in Japan. He was the first person in China to go to Japan to establish the Buddhism commandments, and he was also the first person in Japan to directly teach traditional Chinese medicine. Until now, there have been few reports in English about the details of the Chinese herbal medicines he brought to Japan, including the types of herbal medicines, pharmacological activities, and formulations. In the review, we systematically and comprehensively summarized Jianzhen’s life from the standpoint of his medical and pharmaceutical knowledge and the types and pharmacological activities of Chinese herbal medicines and prescriptions that were brought to Japan by Jianzhen; <br>
(2) Methods: A review was made on the relevant literature written by Chinese, Japanese, and English languages regarding the medical and pharmacological knowledge of Jianzhen, the 36 Chinese herbal medicines brought to Japan by Jianzhen, and the pharmacological and therapeutic effects of these 36 herbal medicines, as well as their formulations; <br>
(3) Results: The review of the literature proved that Jianzhen’s prescriptions served as a basis for current herbal medicines (Kampo) in Japan. In the process of the literature search, we found a book entitled Jianshangren (Holy Priest Jianzhen)’s Secret Prescription, which recorded the complete prescription of the 36 traditional Chinese medicines Jianzhen brought to Japan; <br>
(4) Conclusions: Jianzhen is one of the ancestors of traditional Chinese medicine/Kampo medicine, and he brought traditional Chinese medicine and medical books to Japan for patients. He made important contributions to the development of traditional Chinese medicine in Japan.

kn-title=Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the course of systemic sarcoidosis: A case report and review of 30 Japanese patients with sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a patient with sarcoidosis who developed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. A 71-year-old woman with persistent cough was diagnosed pathologically with sarcoidosis by resection of the right upper lung lobe with a nodule after an unsuccess?ful attempt of transbronchial needle aspiration for mediastinal lymphadenopathy. She was referred for an eye examination and found to have spotty retinal degeneration on the lower fundi of both eyes, together with residual macular edema and vitreous opacity in the left eye. At 76 years, she underwent cataract surgery and vitrectomy to gain a visual acuity of 0.6 in the left eye. At 77 years, she developed a cough and fever, and showed leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Computed tomography showed multiple small nodular lesions in both lungs, and bilateral hilar, mediastinal, and hepatic lymphadenopathy. Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography demonstrated high uptake in the liver, spleen, pancreatic head, and lymph nodes. Bone marrow biopsy was intact, but liver biopsy revealed anomalous large lymphoid cells in the sinusoids which were positive for CD20 and showed a high Ki-67 index, leading to the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Chemotherapy with 8 courses of THP-COP (cyclophosphamide, pirarubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone) with rituximab, followed by intra?thecal injection of methotrexate, cytarabine, and dexamethasone, resulted in complete remission. She maintained complete remission for 10 years until 88 years old at present. The literature review found 30 patients, including this case, who developed lymphoma in the course of sarcoidosis. A novel pathological diagnosis is required in the setting of acute ymptomatic changes and novel lesions on imaging in patients with sarcoidosis.

kn-title=Colonization with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli and traveler's diarrhea attack rates among travelers to India: a systematic review and meta-analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background India is an attractive destination for travelers. Unfortunately, numerous reports exist on traveler's diarrhea (TD) and fecal colonization with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) among international travelers visiting India. Here, we systematically reviewed studies published on the acquisition of ESBL-EC and TD attack rates among international visitors to India. Methods Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis. A systematic search was performed using Google Scholar, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and gray literature from 2000 to December 2021, for studies containing data for ESBL-EC acquisition or TD experience related to a trip to India. Random effects models were used to compute the prevalence of ESBL-EC acquisition and TD attack. Results The literature search yielded a total of 5023 records. Of these, 31 met our inclusion criteria for systematic review and only 17 could be meta-analyzed (9 for TD, and 8 for ESBL-EC). The overall pooled attack rate of TD was 39% (95% confidence interval, CI: 25-53%). In studies where travelers' memory was used to diagnose TD, the pooled attack rate of TD was slightly higher (42%, 95% CI: 21-64%) compared to those where TD was objectively documented (33%, 95% CI: 17-49%). There were significant risks to be colonized with ESBL-EC among the travelers who experienced TD. The pooled rate of ESBL-EC colonization was 72% (CI: 67-78%). Most ESBL-EC produced CTX-M-15 enzyme. Furthermore, most of the travelers who acquired ESBL-EC were from highly industrialized countries recruited from travel clinics: Canada (n = 80), Germany (n = 69), Netherlands (n = 20), Sweden (n = 18), Japan (n = 10), Finland (n = 8), USA (n = 7), Spain (n = 5), and Denmark (n = 3). Conclusions TD pooled attack rate and ESBL-EC acquisition among international travelers visiting India were high in this study. However, we cannot make generalizations based upon this TD pooled attack rate for the current situation, due to a lack of current data. Our study highlights that travelers should be advised on TD to ensure that they do not disregard the risk of contracting TD and be better prepared as a result. It also illustrates the importance of international travel in acquiring antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli.

kn-title=Craniomaxillofacial Fibrous Dysplasia Improved Cosmetic and Occlusal Problem by Comprehensive Treatment: A Case Report and Review of Current Treatments
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a fibrous lesion of immature bone, with an incidence of 10-20% in the head and neck region. Most cases are monostotic, but when a lesion occurs on the maxillofacial region and spreads to the surrounding bone, it is classified as polyostotic, despite its localized occurrence. In some cases, surgical intervention is required to improve the cosmetic or functional disturbance of a FD in the maxillofacial region, but it is necessary to confirm symmetry of the maxillofacial region in real time, and a surgical support system is required to compensate. Furthermore, prosthetic intervention is considered when postoperative acquired defects occur or further cosmetic or occlusal function improvement is needed. A comprehensive approach by an oral surgeon and a maxillofacial prosthodontist is necessary for the successful treatment and rehabilitation of such patients. In this article, we describe the case of a craniomaxillofacial FD patient with facial asymmetry and denture incompatibility with improved quality of life measures by integrating surgical treatment using a navigation system and postoperative prosthetic rehabilitation. We also discuss recent diagnostic methods and treatment strategies for craniomaxillofacial FD in the literature.

kn-title=A Rare Presentation of Invasive Aspergillosis: An Asymptomatic Man with an Abscess Localized to a Parietal Pleura
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aspergillosis is an infection caused by Aspergillus species, and it manifests in various clinical presentations. We describe the case of a 73-year-old man with a small area of thickening on the thoracic wall detected by computed tomography. Surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis of an Aspergillus abscess. We report this case in view of the rarity of Aspergillus abscess localized to a parietal pleura without any signs of lung parenchymal involvement. After a thorough literature review, we consider this could be the first report of this manifestation. Accumulation of similar cases will be necessary to help spread recognition of this condition.

kn-title=Diffuse myometrium thinning and placenta accreta spectrum in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): a case report and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background : Cases of uterine wall thinning and placental abnormalities complicated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) during pregnancy have been reported in Asian countries for ten years. Long-term steroid use can cause muscle degeneration, but the mechanism of myometrium thinning was not known. Through the review of published articles, this report is the first review of cases to discuss the pathogenesis and clinical features of thinned myometrium and placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) in pregnant patients with SLE. <br>
Case presentation : A twenty-nine-year-old primigravida with a history of lupus enteritis and paralytic ileus had a natural conception after less than two years of steroid treatment. An ultrasonographic study showed a thin uterine wall with a widespread thick placenta on the entire surface of the uterine cavity in the third trimester. At the 39th gestational week, she underwent a cesarean section due to the failure of the uterus to contract, even though the injection of oxytocin. There were several engorged vessels on the surface of the anterior uterine wall at the time of laparotomy. We decided to perform a hysterectomy because diffuse PAS replaced her uterus.<br>
Conclusion : A review of reported cases and our case shows an unusual complication of SLE that might be related to the particular condition of the estrogen-mediated immune system. Clinicians should always pay attention to the possibility of uterine wall thinning as uterine atony and the structural abnormality of the placenta for SLE patients with the unscarred uterus.

kn-title=Hip Fractures after Intramedullary Nailing Fixation for Atypical Femoral Fractures: Three Cases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Secondary hip fractures (SHFs) rarely occur after intramedullary nailing (IMN) fixation without femoral neck fixation for atypical femoral fractures (AFFs). We report three cases of older Japanese women who sustained SHFs presumably caused by osteoporosis and peri-implant stress concentration around the femoral neck after undergoing IMN without femoral neck fixation for AFF. All cases were fixed with malalignment. In AFF patients, postoperative changes due to postoperative femoral bone malalignment may affect the peri-implant mechanical environment around the femoral neck, which can result in insufficiency fractures. At the first AFF surgery, we recommend femoral neck fixation after adequate reduction is achieved.

kn-title=Factors Associated with Surgical Field Bacterial Detection during Total Hip Arthroplasty
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Total hip arthroplasty (THA) provides relief from hip pain and improves hip function. However, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) remains an area of concern. We examined the detection rate of bacteria from surgical fields in wound closure, along with the relationship between bacterial detection rate and type of antiseptic, surgery time, and surgeon experience for 500 patients who underwent THA at our department. The mean age at surgery was 64.3 (± 27.3) years. The bacterial detection rate was 4.6%. None of the cases revealed PJI. No significant association between the detection rate and type of antiseptic used or surgery time was observed. However, for patients treated by surgeons with < 10 years of orthopedic experience, a detection rate of 7.3% was found, while a rate of 1.3% was observed for those treated by surgeons with ? 10 years of orthopedic experience. This finding indicated that orthopedic experience of less than 10 years was significantly associated with an increased bacterial detection rate (chi-square test, p=0.002). The detection rate was associated with surgeon experience but not with antiseptic type or surgery time. It is possible that intraoperative handling may increase the number of bacteria in surgical fields in wound closure.

kn-title=Favorable control of hepatocellular carcinoma with peritoneal dissemination by surgical resection using indocyanine green fluorescence imaging: a case report and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background The optimal management for peritoneal dissemination in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma remains unclear. Although several reports have described the usefulness of surgical resection, the indications should be carefully considered. Herein, we report the case of a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma with peritoneal recurrence who underwent surgical resection using an indocyanine green fluorescence navigation system and achieved favorable disease control. Case presentation A 45-year-old Asian woman underwent left hemihepatectomy for a ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma. Seventeen months after the initial surgery, a single nodule near the cut surface of the liver was detected on computed tomography, along with elevation of tumor markers. The patient was diagnosed with peritoneal metastasis and underwent a surgical resection. Twelve months later, a single nodule on the dorsal side of the right hepatic lobe was detected on computed tomography, and we performed surgical resection. Indocyanine green (0.5 mg/kg) was intravenously administered 3 days before surgery, and the indocyanine green fluorescence imaging system revealed clear green fluorescence in the tumor, which helped us perform complete resection. Indocyanine green fluorescence enabled the detection of additional lesions that could not be identified by preoperative imaging, especially in the second metastasectomy. There was no further recurrence at 3 months postoperatively. Conclusion When considering surgical intervention for peritoneal recurrence in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, complete resection is mandatory. Given that disseminated nodules are sometimes too small to be detected by preoperative imaging studies, intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescence may be an essential tool for determining the indications for surgical resection.

kn-title=Adenomatoid mesothelioma arising from the diaphragm: a case report and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Adenomatoid mesothelioma is a rare subtype of malignant mesothelioma that can be confused with adenomatoid tumors, which are classified as benign. The clinical features and optimal management of adenomatoid mesothelioma have not been elucidated in the literature. In this report, we present an extremely rare case of adenomatoid mesothelioma that developed on the peritoneal surface of the diaphragm as well as a literature review of adenomatoid mesothelioma in the abdominal cavity. Case presentation The patient was a 61-year-old Japanese woman who had undergone resection of a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the hand 18 years prior. She was diagnosed with clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma on follow-up chest radiography. Simultaneously, a 20-mm enhancing nodule with slow growth on the right diaphragm was detected on contrast-enhanced computed tomography. She presented no specific clinical symptoms. At this point, the lesion was suspected to be a hypervascular tumor of borderline malignancy, such as a solitary fibrous tumor. After a left upper lobectomy for lung adenocarcinoma, she was referred to our department, and laparoscopic tumor resection was performed. Adenomatoid tumors were also considered based on the histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses, but we made the final diagnosis of adenomatoid mesothelioma using the results of the genetic profile. The patient remains alive, with no recurrence noted 6 months after surgery. Conclusion We encountered a valuable case of adenomatoid mesothelioma of peritoneal origin. There are some previously reported cases of adenomatoid mesothelioma and adenomatoid tumors that may need to be recategorized according to the current classification. It is important to accumulate and share new findings to clarify the clinicopathological characteristics and genetic status of adenomatoid mesothelioma.

kn-title=Cholera Outbreaks in India, 2011-2020: A Systematic Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Fecal contamination of water sources and open defecation have been linked to cholera outbreaks in India. However, a systematic review on the drivers responsible for these outbreaks has yet to be published. Here, we systematically review the published literature on cholera outbreaks in India between 2011 and 2020. We searched studies in English in three databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science) and the Integrated Disease Surveillance Program that tracks cholera outbreaks throughout India. Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the quality of the included studies. Quantitative data on the modes of transmission reviewed in this study were assessed for any change over time between 2011-2015 and 2016-2020. Our search retrieved 10823 records initially, out of which 81 full-text studies were assessed for eligibility. Among these 81 studies, 20 were eligible for inclusion in this review. There were 565 reported outbreaks between 2011 and 2020 that led to 45,759 cases and 263 deaths. Outbreaks occurred throughout the year; however, they exploded with monsoons (June through September). In Tamil Nadu, a typical peak of cholera outbreaks was observed from December to January. Seventy-two percent (33,089/45,759) of outbreak-related cases were reported in five states, namely Maharashtra, West Bengal, Punjab, Karnataka, and Madhya Pradesh. Analysis of these outbreaks highlighted the main drivers of cholera including contaminated drinking water and food, inadequate sanitation and hygiene (including open defecation), and direct contact between households. The comparison between 2011-2015 and 2016-2020 showed a decreasing trend in the outbreaks that arose due to damaged water pipelines. Many Indians still struggle with open defecation, sanitation, and clean water access. These issues should be addressed critically. In addition, it is essential to interrupt cholera short-cycle transmission (mediated by households, stored drinking water and foodstuffs) during an outbreak. As cholera is associated with deprivation, socio-economic development is the only long-term solution.

kn-title=A Pediatric Case of Cauda Equina Dermoid Cyst Resected by Minimally Invasive Unilateral Hemilaminectomy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 3-year-old boy had difficulty sitting up and walking for several months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intradural tumor at the L3-4 level. The tumor was successfully resected by unilateral hemilaminectomy and diagnosed as dermoid cyst. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course without pain, and MRI found no recurrence after surgery. A small bone defect remained that might be favorably reconstructed with autologous and artificial bone. Hemilaminectomy allowed us to resect the cauda equina dermoid cyst with minimal invasiveness. Pediatric patients require follow-up as they are more likely to experience spinal deformity or instability after surgery.

kn-title=Silica-associated systemic lupus erythematosus with lupus nephritis and lupus pneumonitis A case report and a systematic review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction Several epidemiological studies have shown that silica exposure triggers the onset of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); however, the clinical characteristics of silica-associated SLE have not been well studied. Patient concerns A 67-year-old man with silicosis visited a primary hospital because of a fever and cough. His respiratory condition worsened, regardless of antibiotic medication, and he was referred to our hospital. Diagnosis The patient showed leukopenia, lymphopenia, serum creatinine elevation with proteinuria and hematuria, decreased serum C3 level, and was positive for anti-double stranded DNA antibody, anti-nuclear antibody, and direct Coombs test. He was diagnosed with SLE. Renal biopsy was performed, and the patient was diagnosed with lupus nephritis (class IV-G(A/C) + V defined by the International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society classification). Computed tomography revealed acute interstitial pneumonitis, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid showed elevation of the lymphocyte fraction, and he was diagnosed with lupus pneumonitis. Interventions Prednisolone (50 mg/day) with intravenous cyclophosphamide (500 mg/body) were initiated. Outcomes The patient showed a favorable response to these therapies. He was discharged from our hospital and received outpatient care with prednisolone slowly tapered off. He had cytomegalovirus and herpes zoster virus infections during treatment, which healed with antiviral therapy. Review: We searched for the literature on sSLE, and selected 11 case reports and 2 population-based studies. The prevalence of SLE manifestations in sSLE patients were comparative to that of general SLE, particularly that of elderly-onset SLE. Our renal biopsy report and previous reports indicate that lupus nephritis of sSLE patients show as various histological patterns as those of general SLE patients. Among the twenty sSLE patients reported in the case articles, three patients developed lupus pneumonitis and two of them died of it. Moreover, two patients died of bacterial pneumonia, one developed aspergillus abscesses, one got pulmonary tuberculosis, and one developed lung cancer. Conclusion Close attention is needed, particularly for respiratory system events and infectious diseases, when treating patients with silica-associated SLE using immunosuppressive therapies.

kn-title=Clinicopathological Features and Surgical Outcomes of Small Bowel Metastasis from Renal Cell Carcinoma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Small bowel metastasis from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is rare, and its clinicopathological characteristics are unclear; thus, we revisited the concept of this tumor and reviewed its diagnostic and treatment modalities. We filtered MEDLINE searches of articles published in English between 1950 and 2019, and identified 100 patients who had undergone treatment, including 1 patient from our clinic. We extracted patient characteristics, treatment, and prognostic data, resulting in clinicopathological data on 100 patients (83 men, 17 women). Mean age was 63 years (range, 16-86 years). Tumor sites were duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and multiple sites in 30, 37, 25, and 7 patients, respectively. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates after diagnosis were 53.0%, 36.0%, and 36.0%. Curative resection patients showed 62.1% 5-year survival after surgery, vs. 27.5% in noncurative surgical management cases. Good prognoses can be expected if these tumors are identified early for complete removal. Surgery is the only curative option. To determine the best management strategy and improve prognostic accuracy, we continue to collect and analyze epidemiological and pathological data. Although this condition is rare, surgery should be considered if curative resection is expected. Prognosis after curative resection is not poor, but recurrence is not unlikely.

kn-title=The Construction of a Community Long-term Care Model for Home-based Elderly Individuals
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=With rapidly aging populations, family care functions can become weakened, and community health services often lack unified standards. A standardized and professional community home-based long-term care model (CHLCM) for the elderly is urgently needed in many regions of China and in other countries. Here, we explored the indicators of the need for a CHLCM among elderly individuals, and we constructed a CHLCM. We created and distributed a questionnaire regarding the requirement of long-term care services, based on a literature review. The two-rounds Delphi method was used, involving 20 experts who were randomly selected from among the medical universities, community health service centers, and nursing homes in Nanning, Guangxi, China. The experts’ enthusiasm rates in the questionnaire’s two rounds were 95% and 100%, respectively. The authentic coefficient of the experts’ consulting was 0.857, and that of the experts’ academic level was 0.835; the judgement coefficient was 0.880 and the familiar coefficient was 0.855. The CHLCM includes service content and an evaluation. The coordination coefficients for the two primary, eight secondary, and 29 tertiary indicators were 0.200, 0.386, and 0.184, respectively (p<0.05). The experts’ enthusiasm and authority were high. The coordination of the experts’ agreement was sufficient, and the analysis results were reliable. The CHLCM includes 29 items that provide a foundation and references for the formulation of concrete indicators and subsequent research.

kn-title=Transformed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma from marginal zone lymphoma in the anterior mediastinum: A case report and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) arising from the anterior mediastinum is rare. In the majority of reported cases, the tumor was incidentally discovered, reflecting its indolent clinical features. We present a 38-year-old woman who had no medical history, and presented with a bulky anterior mediastinal tumor complicated by life-threatening compression of the vasculature and bronchi. Biopsy specimens of the neoplasm suggested transformed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) from MZL. To our best knowledge, this is the first case report of anterior mediastinum MZL associated with an aggressive clinical course and life-threatening complications likely due to transformation to DLBCL.

kn-title=COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine?Associated Uveitis Leading to Diagnosis of Sarcoidosis: Case Report and Review of Literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=<jats:p> A 34-year-old Japanese person with male gender identity who had been taking intramuscular injection of methyltestosterone depot for 11 years after bilateral mastectomy noticed blurred vision 5 days after the second vaccination for COVID-19 (Tozinameran; Pfizer-BioNTech) in the interval of 3 weeks following the first vaccination. The patient was diagnosed as granulomatous iritis with mutton-fat keratic precipitates and small iris nodules at the pupillary margin in the right eye and began to have 0.1% betamethasone eye drops with good response. The patient, however, continued to have fever and malaise and showed a high level of serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) even 4 weeks after the second vaccination. Computed tomographic scan disclosed mediastinal and bilateral hilar small lymphadenopathy together with limited granular lesion in the right lung. Gallium-67 scintigraphy demonstrated high uptake not only in mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes but also in bilateral parotid glands. Right parotid gland biopsy revealed noncaseating granulomas and proved pathological diagnosis of sarcoidosis. The systemic symptoms were relieved by oral prednisolone 20 mg daily. Even though the causal relationship remains undetermined, this case is unique at the point that vaccine-associated uveitis led to the detection of pulmonary lesions and lymphadenopathy, resulting in clinical and pathological diagnosis of sarcoidosis. In literature review, 3 patients showed sarcoidosis-like diseases after COVID-19 vaccination: 2 patients were diagnosed clinically as Lofgren syndrome with acute onset of erythema nodosum and ankle swelling, with or without mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy, whereas 1 patient with mediastinal lymphadenopathy but no uveitis was diagnosed pathologically by biopsy as sarcoidosis. </jats:p>

kn-title=Transatlantic connections in John McGahern’s The Leavetaking
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=John McGahern is most often regarded as an artist of the local or the “self-enclosed world”, as Declan Kiberd puts it. His works explore the lives and loves of characters in settings that correspond closely with the localities of McGahern’s youth in the north-west of Ireland. Accordingly, the themes of his work are often aligned with those of other “provincial” Irish realists, in Kavanagh’s sense of the word: religion, exile, and local identities or selves. This paper, however, focuses on instances where McGahern contrasts the self with the non-self in distinct national-cultural terms. Specifically, in The Leavetaking, as well as the short stories “Doorways” and “Bank Holiday”, he introduces American characters (women in all three cases) as much, it would seem, to provide the spark of a love-interest for those stories’ drifting male protagonists as to provide a commentary on Ireland by way of comparison with America and American perceptions of Ireland. In doing so, McGahern deploys a transatlantic vocabulary of circulation and movement that reflects the openness of his enclosed locality to the non-local, the self to the non-self.

kn-title=Cystic Intracranial Recurrence of Olfactory Neuroblastoma without Accumulation on Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 66-year-old man underwent multimodal treatment for olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). When he was 72 years old, a cystic intracranial lesion without accumulation on fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography was detected. Surgical resection was performed when the patient was 73 years old. The pathological examination revealed recurrence of ONB, and the patient underwent focal irradiation. At age 81, he presented with a second recurrence in the right occipital lobe with radiological and pathological findings similar to the prior recurrence. This case suggests that pathological confirmation should be considered in cases with atypical radiological findings following the treatment of ONB.

kn-title=Lumbar Artery Injury Related to Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Insertion
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 75-year-old woman underwent L4-L5 lateral interbody fusion for L4-5 foraminal stenosis with the use of percutaneous pedicle screws. On the day after the surgery, she was in shock. Emergency contrast-enhanced CT showed active extravasation from the 4th lumbar artery with a transverse process fracture. A radiologist performed a successful transarterial embolization, and the patient then began walking training on the 4th day post-surgery. Close attention should be paid to the insertion of a percutaneous pedicle screw, as it may cause a lumbar artery injury; in such a case, transarterial embolization is the preferred treatment.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We introduce a new digital workflow to fabricate a fixed partial denture (FPD) utilizing the three-dimensional surface morphology of provisional restoration (PR) and abutment teeth. Scanned images of the full maxilla with abutment teeth, full maxilla with PR, and PR alone were superimposed. The surfaces of the final FPD were designed based on the entire morphology of the PR and abutment teeth surfaces. The inner and outer surfaces converged at the margin lines of the abutment teeth. Fine modifications to the final FPD design were performed manually, and the final FPD was fabricated and successfully installed in the patient.

kn-title=C-arm Free O-arm Navigated Posterior Atlantoaxial Fixation in Down Syndrome: A Technical Note
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The surgical treatment of pediatric atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS) in Down syndrome (DS) remains technically challenging due to radiation exposure and complications such as vertebral artery injury and nonunion. The established treatment is fixation with a C1 lateral mass screw and C2 pedicle screw (modified Goel technique). However, this technique requires fluoroscopy for C1 screw insertion. To avoid exposing the operating team to radiation we present here a new C-arm free O-arm navigated surgical procedure for pediatric AAS in DS. A 5-year-old male DS patient had neck pain and unsteady gait. Radiograms showed AAS with an atlantodental interval of 10 mm, and irreducible subluxation on extension. CT scan showed Os odontoideum and AAS. MRI demonstrated spinal cord compression between the C1 posterior arch and odontoid process. We performed a C-arm free O-arm navigated modified Goel procedure with postoperative halo-vest immobilization. At oneyear follow-up, good neurological recovery and solid bone fusion were observed. The patient had no complications such as epidural hematoma, infection, or nerve or vessel injury. This novel procedure is a useful and safe technique that protects surgeons and staff from radiation risk.

kn-title=Acute acalculous cholecystitis caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection: A case report and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Emerging data indicate that gastrointestinal disorders, in addition to pulmonary dysfunction, are also hallmarks of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Case presentation: A 42-year-old man with maintenance hemodialysis developed high fever and dyspnea. He was positive for SARS-CoV-2 and was diagnosed with pneumonia. After treatment for SARS-CoV-2, his respiratory condition improved. However, he developed right upper quadrant pain with elevated inflammatory markers (white blood cells, 21,160/mu L; c-reactive protein, 163.9 mg/L) on the 13th day. Abdominal computed tomography revealed acute acalculous cholecystitis. Percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) was performed together with antibiotic therapy, which resulted in improvement of symptoms. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed 36 days after PTGBD. <br>
Conclusion: We report a rare case of acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) following pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. We also conducted a literature search to characterize SARS-CoV-2-related cholecystitis. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 is an important trigger for AAC, and appropriate therapeutic alternatives should be cautiously selected according to individual cases.

kn-title=Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma 18 Years After Bilateral Lacrimal Gland IgG4-Related Disease: Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=IgG4-related disease is a recently established clinical entity. The disease might serve as the background for later development of systemic lymphoma. This study aims to confirm the diagnosis of IgG4-related disease by re-staining lacrimal gland lesions diagnosed previously with low-grade lymphoma in a patient who developed systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) 18 years later. A 53-year-old man developed bilateral lacrimal gland swelling and right submandibular gland swelling and was diagnosed by excision as low-grade lymphoma. In follow-up, positron emission tomography showed high uptake in the median hyoid 11 years later but no malignancy was detected by laryngeal submucosal biopsy. He was well with no treatment until 18 years later when he had palatal swelling and was diagnosed with DLBCL by oral floor biopsy. He had systemic lymphadenopathy, infiltration in paranasal sinuses, hypopharynx, small intestine, kidney, and prostate. He underwent 8 courses of R-CHOP and 3 courses of high-dose methotrexate and achieved complete remission with no relapse for 1 year thereafter. Re-immunostaining of paraffin blocks of bilateral lacrimal gland lesions showed IgG and IgG4-positive lymphocytes and plasma cells among lymphoid follicles separated by fibrous bundles, with 10 or more IgG4-positive cells in high-power field. The IgG4/IgG-positive cell ratio was 100% and the number of κ chain-positive cells and λ chain-positive cells was the same. The bilateral lacrimal lesions were thus re-diagnosed as IgG4-related disease. In conclusion, systemic DLBCL occurred approximately 20 years after lacrimal gland IgG4-related disease. Literature review revealed 12 patients with IgG4-related disease, including the present patient, who later developed lymphoma in the other organs.

kn-title=Evaluation of Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction Associated With Acute Inflammation by Electrical Impedance Myography: A Case Report on Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction After Cardiac Surgery and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Electrical impedance myography (EIM) is an evaluation technique for skeletal muscles that uses electrical impedance technology. Recent reviews have shown that EIM is useful as a method to assess changes in skeletal muscle quality and quantity with aging. These may be utilized for functional changes in inflammatory skeletal muscles, such as disease and operation. In this report, the impedance parameters using EIM present perioperative skeletal muscle changes in patients after cardiac surgery. In addition, we will describe the efficacy of EIM in skeletal muscle dysfunction due to inflammation or disease. This study aimed to elucidate the efficacy of EIM in acute inflammation-associated skeletal muscle dysfunction.

kn-title=Primary Gastrointestinal T-Cell Lymphoma and Indolent Lymphoproliferative Disorders: Practical Diagnostic and Treatment Approaches
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Simple Summary: It is challenging for pathologists to diagnose primary gastrointestinal T-cell neoplasms. Besides the rarity of the diseases, the small biopsy material makes it more difficult to differentiate between non-neoplastic inflammation and secondary involvement of extra gastrointestinal lymphoma. Since this group of diseases ranges from aggressive ones with a very poor prognosis to indolent ones that require caution to avoid overtreatment, the impact of the diagnosis on the patient is enormous. Although early treatment of aggressive lymphoma is essential, the treatment strategy is not well established, which is a problem for clinicians. This review provides a cross-sectional comparison of histological findings. Unlike previous reviews, we summarized up-to-date clinically relevant information including the treatment strategies as well as practical differential diagnosis based on thorough literature review. <br>

Abstract: Primary gastrointestinal (GI) T-cell neoplasms are extremely rare heterogeneous disease entities with distinct clinicopathologic features. Given the different prognoses of various disease subtypes, clinicians and pathologists must be aware of the key characteristics of these neoplasms, despite their rarity. The two most common aggressive primary GI T-cell lymphomas are enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma and monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma. In addition, extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma of the nasal type and anaplastic large cell lymphoma may also occur in the GI tract or involve it secondarily. In the revised 4th World Health Organization classification, indolent T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder of the GI tract has been incorporated as a provisional entity. In this review, we summarize up-to-date clinicopathological features of these disease entities, including the molecular characteristics of primary GI T-cell lymphomas and indolent lymphoproliferative disorders. We focus on the latest treatment approaches, which have not been summarized in existing reviews. Further, we provide a comprehensive review of available literature to address the following questions: How can pathologists discriminate subtypes with different clinical prognoses? How can primary GI neoplasms be distinguished from secondary involvement? How can these neoplasms be distinguished from non-specific inflammatory changes at an early stage?

kn-title=Left Hemihepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Following Esophagectomy with Retrosternal Gastric Tube Reconstruction for Esophageal Cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Approximately 4% of patients with esophageal cancer develop a second primary malignancy in the upper gastrointestinal trunk. However, hepatectomy following esophagectomy for esophageal cancer has rarely been reported. We report the case of a 70-year-old man who underwent an esophagectomy for esophageal cancer with retrosternal gastric tube reconstruction. Nine years later, he developed hepatocellular carcinoma with tumor thrombus involving the left portal vein, and was successfully treated with left hemihepatectomy. Special attention should be paid to avoiding incidental injury of the gastric tube as well as the right gastroepiploic artery during the hepatectomy.

kn-title=Non-Invasive Prenatal Genetic Testing (NIPT) Leading to Prenatal Diagnosis of Trisomy 21 Mosaicism and 18q Deletion Syndrome: Two Cases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=NIPT is non-definitive testing to estimate the possibility that fetuses have trisomy 21, trisomy 18, or trisomy 13. However, in NIPT-positive and indeterminate cases, rare chromosomal disease may become apparent, requiring advanced genetic considerations and counseling skills. We experienced two such cases, a trisomy 21 mosaicism case triggered by NIPT-positive status and 18q deletion syndrome triggered by NIPT-indeterminate status. These cases have two clinical implications for NIPT. First, it was revealed that trisomy mosaicism might be found in NIPT-positive cases that have lower Z-Scores than those inferred from the fraction of fetal cfDNA in the case of standard trisomy. Second, it is possible that microdeletion syndrome could be the reason for an indeterminate NIPT result. Today’s genetic counseling requires more expertise in ethics and communication as well as genetic science because NIPT can lead to totally unexpected results.

kn-title=Sublingual Gland Carcinoma Revealed by Choroidal Metastasis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 65-year-old man presented with a 1-week history of left eye distortion. An elevated choroidal lesion covering 6 disc diameters was found in the posterior retina of the left eye. Systemic examination revealed sublingual gland carcinoma and multiple lung metastases, and the diagnosis was choroidal metastasis from sublingual gland carcinoma. Following chemotherapy and radiation therapy, the choroidal lesion shrunk and the patient’s visual acuity improved. The patient died 23 months after his first visit. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of choroidal metastasis from sublingual gland carcinoma.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Surgical intervention for hepatolithiasis following hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) has rarely been reported. Herein, we present a case of post-HJ multiple hepatolithiasis treated with left hemihepatectomy with double HJ reconstruction. A 72-year-old woman who had undergone HJ for iatrogenic bile duct injury developed repeated cholangitis due to complicated hepatolithiasis accompanied by an atrophied left hepatic lobe and HJ stricture. Since endoscopic intervention was unsuccessful, the patient underwent left hemihepatectomy with HJ re-anastomoses of the common hepatic duct and left hepatic duct (double HJ technique). The double HJ technique with hepatectomy can be a useful option for treating complicated hepatolithiasis following HJ.

kn-title=Morphological Changes and Durability of Skin and Mucosal Flaps in Intraoral and Pharyngeal Reconstructions: Long-term Follow-up and Literature Review for Potential Second Carcinomas
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The long-term changes in tissues implanted in the oral cavity and pharynx after head and neck reconstruction have not been fully evaluated. This study aimed to clarify the morphological changes, long-term durability, and potential for secondary carcinogenesis in such tissues. In our single-center study, the rough morphological changes in 54 cases of intraoral and pharyngeal skin and mucosal flaps were evaluated more than 10 years after flap transfer. In addition, the literature on the development of second carcinomas from skin flaps was reviewed. The mean follow-up period for transferred flaps was 148 months. The reconstruction areas and the probability of morphological changes were significantly correlated (p=0.006), especially in cases with tongue, lower gingiva, and buccal mucosal reconstruction. Free jejunal flap surfaces were well maintained, whereas tubed skin flaps showed severe morphological changes in cases with pharyngeal reconstruction. None of the flaps in our series developed second primary carcinomas. Skin flaps generally had good durability for > 10 years in intraoral environments, while mucosal flaps had better durability for pharyngeal reconstruction. Second squamous carcinomas arising from skin flaps are extremely rare; however, surgeons should take this possibility into consideration and conduct meticulous and long-term follow-up.

kn-title=Testosterone Recovery after Neoadjuvant Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Antagonist versus Agonist on Permanent Iodine-125 Seed Brachytherapy in Prostate Cancer Patients: A Propensity Score Analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Optimal neoadjuvant hormone therapy (NHT) for reducing prostate cancer (PC) patients’ prostate volume pre-brachytherapy is controversial. We evaluated the differential impact of neoadjuvant gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist versus agonist on post-brachytherapy testosterone recovery in 112 patients treated pre-brachytherapy with NHT (GnRH antagonist, n=32; GnRH agonists, n=80) (Jan. 2007-June 2019). We assessed the effects of patient characteristics and a GnRH analogue on testosterone recovery with logistic regression and a propensity score analysis (PSA). There was no significant difference in the rate of testosterone recovery to normal levels (> 300 ng/dL) between the GnRH antagonist and agonists (p=0.07). The GnRH agonists induced a significantly more rapid testosterone recovery rate at 3 months post-brachytherapy versus the GnRH antagonist (p<0.0001); there was no difference in testosterone recovery at 12 months between the GnRH antagonist/agonists (p=0.8). In the multivariate analysis, no actor was associated with testosterone recovery. In the PSA, older age and higher body mass index (BMI) were significantly associated with longer testosterone recovery. Post-brachytherapy testosterone recovery was quicker with the neoadjuvant GnRH agonists than the antagonist, and the testosterone recovery rate was significantly associated with older age and higher BMI. Long-term follow-ups are needed to determine any differential effects of GnRH analogues on the quality of life of brachytherapy-treated PC patients.

kn-title=Evaluation of Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Acute Cholecystitis to Predict Technical Difficulties in Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a non-invasive imaging technique that provides high-quality visualization of the biliary tree, including the gallbladder. This study aimed to evaluate the useful-ness of preoperative MRCP for acute cholecystitis in predicting technical difficulties during laparoscopic chole-cystectomy (LC). A total of 168 patients who underwent LC with preoperative MRCP were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to preoperative MRCP findings: the visualized group (n = 126), in which the entire gallbladder could be visualized; and the non-visualized group (n = 42), in which the entire gallbladder could not be visualized. The perioperative characteristics and postoperative complica-tions of the two groups were retrospectively analyzed. Operation time was longer in the non-visualized group (median 101.5 vs. 143.5 min; p < 0.001). The non-visualized group had significantly more intraoperative blood loss than the visualized group (median 5 vs. 10 g; p = 0.05). The rate of conversion to open cholecystectomy was significantly higher in the non-visualized group (1.6 vs. 9.5%; p = 0.03). In conclusion, patients in the non- visualized group showed higher difficulty in performance of LC. Our MRCP-based classification is a simple and effective means of predicting difficulties in performing LC for acute cholecystitis.

kn-title=Nodal Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma with T Follicular Helper Phenotype Presenting as Chorea During Treatment: A Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 72-year-old man presented with chorea while undergoing treatment for recurrence of nodal peripheral T-cell lymphoma with T follicular helper (TFH) phenotype. An examination by brain N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine (I-123-IMP)-single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) revealed no abnormalities other than a decreased cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the left striatum. After four courses of salvage chemotherapy, his clinical symptoms and asymmetric cerebral perfusion improved, suggesting that the decreased CBF had caused chorea. The significance of brain SPECT has not been fully clarified in patients with chorea-associated malignant lymphoma, warranting further investigations. Brain SPECT is an alternative approach to identify abnormalities in such patients.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We present an extremely rare case of deep angiomyxoma (DAM) in the thigh that was misdiagnosed as desmoid-type fibromatosis. A 40-year-old Japanese woman presented with a mass on the left thigh. The histological diagnosis by needle biopsy was desmoid-type fibromatosis; the tumor grew slowly and was resected 4 years later. The histological diagnosis from the resected tumor was DAM. As of 16 months post-surgery, the patient has not noticed any local recurrence. Although DAM in a lower extremity is extremely rare, clinicians must be aware of its possible occurrence in areas relatively close to the pelvis.

kn-abstract=Sacral schwannoma is a rare tumor with relatively few symptoms; it thus tends to be large at diagnosis and is challenging to treat surgically. We present the case of a 12-year-old girl with a large sacral schwannoma that was successfully surgically resected using O-arm navigation in a two-stage operation. First, we performed tumor resection from the posterior aspect with assisted O-arm navigation. One week later, resection from the anterior aspect was conducted with posterior spinopelvic fixation and fibula graft. We performed partial resection of the tumor from the anterior and posterior aspects as much as possible. O-arm navigation contributed to precise
and safe tumor resection and implant insertion.

kn-title=Use of Highly Accurate Devices for a First Lower Premolar Endodontic Treatment with Multiple Root Canals
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This case report highlights the importance of using a dental operating microscope (DOM) and ultrasonic endodontic tips (UETs) to locate all root canals in the lower first premolar. A 53-year-old woman presented to our clinic with pain in the lower right first premolar. After a detailed search using a DOM and UETs, three root canals were found, prepared with rotary HyFlex endodontic files, and obturated using the lateral condensation technique. At the five-year follow-up after treatment, the tooth was completely restored and fulfilling its function, with no signs or symptoms of any post-treatment flare-up.

kn-title=Transtubular Endoscopic Posterolateral Decompression of the L5 Root under Navigation and O-arm: A Technical Note
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Among studies evaluating minimally invasive surgical (MIS) decompression of the L5 root, techniques involving transtubular endoscopic decompression under O-arm navigation are rare. We present the case of a 68-yearold woman with left leg pain, muscle weakness and gait disturbance of one month duration. The patient underwent transtubular endoscopic decompression under O-arm navigation. There is no radiation hazard to the operating room staff with this procedure. After surgery, the patient had significant pain relief and her left lower limb motor function had improved by follow-up at one year. C-arm-free endoscopic L5 root decompression is a safe and effective procedure.

kn-title=Recurrence of Hypoglycemic Coma in a Patient with Anorexia Nervosa
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Anorexia nervosa (AN) is occasionally complicated with hypoglycemic coma, which may cause sudden death by unknown mechanisms. We present the case of a 36-year-old woman with recurrent comas and a nineteen-year history of AN. She was found in a coma with remarkable hypoglycemia (28 mg/dL). Her BMI was 11.1 kg/m2. Endocrine workup revealed extremely low serum levels of glucagon, IGF-I and insulin. Asymptomatic hypoglycemia occurred with liver injury in the refeeding process. An aberrant glucose metabolism due to liver damage might have been involved in her susceptibility to hypoglycemia. This case suggests a possible mechanism of
hypoglycemic coma in AN.

kn-title=Histologic Transformation from Follicular Lymphoma to Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Detected during Colonoscopy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 77-year-old Japanese woman who had been treated for follicular lymphoma for 8 years developed abdominal pain and intra-abdominal lymphadenopathies. Colonoscopy revealed an elevated lesion in the rectum, which presented as two humps with erosions. A diagnosis of histologic transformation of follicular lymphoma to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was made by endoscopic biopsy. This case underscores the importance of endoscopy examinations and biopsy of newly emerged gastrointestinal lesions for the prompt diagnosis of histologic transformation, since salvage chemotherapy must be initiated quickly in such cases.

kn-title=Usefulness of Middle Colic Artery Transposition Technique for Hepatic Arterial Reconstruction in Conversion Surgery for an Initially Unresectable, Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The outcomes of pancreatectomy with resection and reconstruction of the involved arteries for locally advanced pancreatic cancer following chemotherapy have improved in recent years. In pancreatic head cancers in which there is contact with the common and proper hepatic arteries, margin-negative resection requires pancreati-coduodenectomy, with the resection of these arteries and the restoration of hepatic arterial flow. Here, we describe a middle colic artery transposition technique in hepatic arterial reconstruction during pancreatoduo-denectomy for an initially unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer. This technique was effective and may provide a new option for hepatic artery reconstruction in such cases.

kn-title=An Elderly Male with Primary Sj?gren’s Syndrome Presenting Pleuritis as the Initial Manifestation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Primary Sj?gren’s syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disease that usually affects the exocrine glands in mid-dle-aged women. Fifteen percent of SS patients experience severe systemic extraglandular complications, and pleuritis is one of the rare complications of SS. We report the case of an elderly Japanese man who initially pre-sented with a prolonged fever and chest pain and was finally diagnosed with primary SS-associated pleuritis. Of the nine reported cases of primary SS that initially presented with pleuritis, up to six cases were elderly males. This case highlights the complication of pleuritis among elderly males with primary SS.

kn-title=Tumor Lysis Syndrome due to Eribulin Administration for Metastatic Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma of the Buttock
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is a complication of cancer treatment that requires urgent intervention. It is extremely rare in the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) of the limbs or trunk, and there are currently no reports of TLS occurrence from eribulin therapy. We report the case of a 78-year-old woman with an undiffer-entiated pleomorphic sarcoma on the right buttock. We initiated chemotherapy with intravenous eribulin mesylate. Deterioration of renal function, mild hyperkalemia, hyperuricemia, hypocalcemia, and hyperphos-phatemia were confirmed on examination, suggesting the presence of TLS. We present an extremely rare case of TLS from eribulin for STS.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 67-year-old woman underwent polypectomy for a tumor at the descending colon. Pathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as adenocarcinoma with an invasion of 2000 μm. Computed tomography showed a swollen paracolic lymph node and a mass lesion in the presacral space. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a multio-cular cystic lesion. On diagnosis of descending colon cancer and tailgut cyst, she underwent synchronous lapa-roscopic resection. Histopathologically, the colon cancer was diagnosed as pT1bN1M0, pStage IIIa. The pre-sacral cystic lesion was diagnosed as a nonmalignant tailgut cyst with negative surgical margin. The patient is currently doing well without recurrence at 28 months.

kn-title=Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Diagnosed during Hospitalization for Cardiac Arrest
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a genetically mediated cardiomyopathy charac-terized by progressive myocardial loss of the right ventricle and its replacement by fibrofatty tissue, causing dyskinesia, aneurysm, and/or arrhythmia. The prevalence of ARVC is estimated to be 1 in 2,000-5,000, with the condition accounting for up to 20% of sudden cardiac deaths in individuals < 35 years old. This report describes the case of 61-year-old Japanese who was diagnosed with ARVC after cardiac arrest (CA) and successful resusci-tation. After the sudden CA, the restoration of spontaneous circulation was achieved with appropriate resusci-tation, followed by the introduction of target temperature management in the intensive care unit. He was diag-nosed with ARVC based on angiography and histology results. An ICD (implantable cardioverter-defibrillator) was implanted, and he was discharged without neurological sequelae 1 month post-CA. ARVC is an important cause of sudden CA, and successfully resuscitated patients with right ventricular dilation should undergo testing to rule out ARVC.

kn-abstract=The characteristics of gastric polyps in patients with Peutz-Jeghers (PJ) syndrome (PJS) have not been fully investigated. The objective of this study was to reveal the endoscopic and pathologic findings of gastric polyps in patients with PJS. We reviewed 11 patients with PJS treated at 6 institutions, and summarized the endo-scopic and pathologic features of their gastric polyps. The polyps were mainly classified into 2 types: (i) soli-tary or sporadic polyps > 5 mm, reddish in color with a sessile or semi-pedunculated morphology (n = 9); and (ii) multiple sessile polyps ? 5 mm with the same color tone as the peripheral mucosa (n = 9). Patients who underwent endoscopic mucosal resection for polyps > 5 mm were diagnosed with PJ polyps (n = 2), whereas those who underwent biopsy were diagnosed with hyperplastic polyps. Polyps ? 5 mm were pathologically diagnosed as fundic gland polyps or hyperplastic polyps. This study revealed that patients with PJS present with 2 types of polyps in the stomach. Endoscopic mucosal resection of polyps > 5 mm seems necessary for the pathologic diagnosis of PJ polyps.

kn-title=Differences in Attitudes and Practices of Cancer Pain Management between Medical Oncologists and Palliative Care Physicians
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study aimed to evaluate whether there are differences in the attitudes and practices of cancer pain manage-ment between medical oncologists and palliative care physicians. An online nationwide survey was used to collect responses from board-certified medical oncologists and palliative care physicians in Japan. The survey questionnaire comprised 30 questions. The differences in responses between medical oncologists and palliative care physicians were examined. Out of the 1,227 questionnaires sent, 522 (42.5%) were returned. After apply-ing the exclusion criteria, 445 questionnaires (medical oncologists: n = 283; palliative care physicians: n = 162) were retained for analysis. Among the questions about potential barriers to optimal cancer pain man-agement, both medical oncologists and palliative care physicians considered the reluctance of patients to take opioids due to fear of adverse effects as the greatest barrier. Significantly different ratings between medical oncologists and palliative care physicians were observed on 5 of the 8 questions in this area. Significantly differ-ent ratings were observed for all questions concerning pain specialists and their knowledge. For effective cancer pain management, it is important to account for differences in attitudes and practice between medical oncolo-gists and palliative care physicians.

kn-title=Comparative Study on Epstein-Barr Virus-Positive Mucocutaneous Ulcer and Methotrexate-Associated Lymphoproliferative Disorders Developed in the Oral Mucosa: A Case Series of 10 Patients and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (MTX-LPD) is an iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorder that occurs mainly with MTX use. This disorder has been associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. In 2017, the WHO newly defined the disease concept of EBV-positive mucocutaneous ulcer (EBV-MCU) as a good-prognosis EBV-related disease. Here, we report 10 cases of MTX-LPD or EBV-MCU in the oral mucosa. This retrospective, observational study was conducted with MTX-LPD or EBV-MCU in the oral mucosa patients who visited us during the nine year period from 2012 to 2021. We gathered the basic information, underlying disease, histopathological evaluation, treatment and prognosis for the subjects. All were being treated with MTX for rheumatoid arthritis. EBV infection was positive in all cases by immunohistochemistry. A complete or partial response was obtained in all cases with the withdrawal of MTX. Our results suggests that the most common risk factor for developing EBV-MCU is the use of immunosuppressive drugs. The most common site of onset is the oral mucosa, which may be attributed to the mode of EBV infection and the high incidence of chronic irritation of the oral mucosa. A small number of patients had been diagnosed with MTX-LPD, but we consider that these cases were EBV-MCU based on our study.

kn-title=Surgical Treatment of Epiretinal Membrane
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Epiretinal membrane (ERM) is a common retinal disease characterized by cellular proliferation and metaplasia that lead to the formation of a pathological fibrocellular membrane immediately superjacent to the inner retinal surface. The vast majority of ERMs are considered idiopathic. However, ERM formation can result from various primary intraocular diseases, including retinal breaks and detachment, retinal vascular diseases, and vitreoretinal inflammatory conditions. Although ERMs are generally asymptomatic or cause mild metamorphopsia and/or a modest decrease in visual acuity, some can cause severe macular distortion and macular edema, resulting in significantly impaired function. Surgical removal of ERM is the only treatment, and improvements in vitrectomy systems have enabled less invasive treatment. However, there are currently no standardized criteria for ERM surgery, and the indications for surgery are determined from the patient’s subjective symptoms. Another problem with ERM surgery is that not all patients show satisfactory postoperative recovery of visual function. Thus, further research is needed to determine the criteria for ERM surgery and methods to improve the postoperative prognosis.

kn-title=Secretory Carcinoma of Salivary Gland with High-Grade Histology Arising in Hard Palate: A Case Report
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Secretory carcinoma (SC) is a recently described salivary gland tumor reported in the fourth edition of World Health Organization classification of head and neck tumors. SC is characterized by strong S-100 protein, mammaglobin, and vimentin immunoexpression, and harbors a t(12;15)(p13;q25) translocation which leads to ETV6-NTRK3 fusion product. Histologically, SC displays a lobulated growth pattern and is often composed of microcystic, tubular, and solid structures with abundant eosinophilic homogenous or bubbly secretion. SC is generally recognized as low-grade malignancy with low-grade histopathologic features, and metastasis is relatively uncommon. In this case, we described a SC of hard palate that underwent high grade transformation and metastasis to the cervical lymph node in a 54-year-old patient. In addition, this case showed different histological findings between primary lesion and metastasis lesion. Therefore, the diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of ETV6 translocation. Here, we report a case that occurred SC with high-grade transformation in the palate, and a review of the relevant literature is also presented.

kn-title=Prostate Cancer Detected by Choroidal Tumor and Complete Response to Hormonal Therapy: Case Report and Literature Review of 24 Patients With Choroidal Metastasis From Prostate Cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Metastatic choroidal tumors derived from prostate cancer are rare. In this study, we report a patient who manifested a choroidal tumor as the initial presenting sign of prostate cancer and review 23 patients with choroidal metastasis of prostate cancer in the literature to answer a clinical question how the choroidal metastases would respond to hormonal therapy. A 73-year-old man presented with a choroidal tumor in the right eye. He was in good health and had no previous history except for current hemodialysis in 3 years due to chronic renal failure as a sequel to glomerulonephritis. With the diagnosis of a probable metastatic tumor, positron emission tomography was performed to disclose high-uptake sites in multiple bones, lymph nodes, and the prostate, together with multiple nodular lesions in bilateral lungs on computed tomography (CT) scan. Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was elevated to 541 ng/mL, which supported prostate cancer as the primary site. He had degarelix injection, and the choroidal tumor resolved rapidly and became flat degeneration in a month. Prostate biopsy showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, and he underwent surgical castration. He had no medication until 3 years later when he showed gradual increase of serum PSA up to 6.05 ng/mL and multiple bony metastases on CT scan. Bicalutamide, switched to enzalutamide and then to abiraterone, led to the undetectable level of serum PSA until the last visit with no relapse of the choroidal metastasis, 6.8 years after the initial visit. In the literature review of 24 patients with choroidal metastasis of prostate cancer, including this patient, 8 patients presented a choroidal tumor as the initial sign and the choroidal lesions mostly showed complete response to hormonal therapy. Among 13 patients who were frequently in the course of hormonal therapy, choroidal metastases showed complete or partial response to external beam radiation to the eye in 11 patients and episcleral plaque radiotherapy in 2 patients. In conclusion, metastatic choroidal tumors of prostate cancer would show good response to hormonal therapy when the therapy has not been initiated. Hormone-resistant choroidal metastases in the therapeutic course of prostate cancer could be managed successfully by external beam radiation to the eye.

kn-title=Dental Treatment for Special Needs Patients Under General Anaesthesia: A 14-year Experience from South Bosnia and Herzegovina
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We conducted a retrospective analysis of records of special needs patients (SNPs) who received dental treatment under orotracheal-intubation general anaesthesia (OIGA) at Caritas Centre St. Family in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina during the 14-year period from January 2005 to December 2018. Of the 7,085 SNPs who received dental treatment, 1,220 (17.2%) received dental treatment under OIGA: 829 (67.9%)  males and 391 (32.1%) females. The patients’ mean age was 18.3±10.9 years (747 paediatric and 473 adult patients). Mental retardation and psychiatric problems were the most common medical conditions (81.22%). The most common indication for dental treatment under OIGA was behaviour management (87.21%), and 81% of the patients had an urgent need for treatment. Many of the patients had restorative treatment (3,833) and tooth extractions (3,681). From 2011 onwards, the number of tooth extractions decreased significantly. Annual trends revealed a rapid increase of patients every year. The mean dental treatment duration was 95.3±12.1 min; the mean time under OIGA was 98±8.5 min. No serious adverse effects occurred. There was increase of annual trend of SNP in OIGA. The number of extractions decreased while the number of preventive and restorative dental treatments increased.

kn-title=Foreign investment or divestment as a near-term solution to performance shortfalls? The moderating role of vicarious learning
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Most studies on problemistic search do not pay sufficient attention to how below-aspiration organizations decide what types of strategic actions to use to cope with performance shortfalls. In this study, we examine the preferences of multinational corporations (MNCs) for selecting foreign investment or divestment as a near-term solution to performance shortfalls. We first argue that foreign divestment is generally a more preferred performance solution. Drawing on the literature on vicarious learning, we further argue that MNCs are more likely to engage in foreign investment or foreign divestment to combat large performance shortfalls if peers recently and actively undertook the same type of strategic action. Moreover, they are less likely to undertake the other type of strategic action simultaneously because they adopt the satisficing principle and time constraints deter them from implementing multiple types of strategic action substantially. The analysis of the data about Japanese manufacturing MNCs reveals that vicarious learning influences MNCs’ selection preferences in certain conditions, thereby extending the literature on problemistic search.

kn-title=Cripto-1 as a Potential Target of Cancer Stem Cells for Immunotherapy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Simple Summary Cancer immunotherapy is gaining attention as a potential fourth treatment following surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Cancer stem cells have recently been recognized and validated as a key target for cancer treatment. Cripto-1, which is a GPI-anchored membrane-bound protein that functions as a co-receptor of Nodal, is a marker of cancer stem cells. Since Nodal is a member of the TGF-beta family, which performs an important role in stem cells and cancer stem cells, the inhibition of Cripto-1 could be a strategy by which to block Nodal signaling and thereby suppress cancer stem cells. We propose that Cripto-1 may be a novel target for cancer immunotherapy. The immune system has been found to be suppressed in cancer patients. Cancer cells are extremely resistant to chemotherapeutic drugs, conventional immunotherapy, or cancer antigen vaccine therapy. Cancer immunotherapy, which is mainly based on immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as those for PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA4, is an effective treatment method. However, no immunotherapeutic target has been found that retains validity in the face of tumor diversity. The transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta cytokine family possesses broad biological activity and is involved in the induction and/or transdifferentiation of helper T cells, which are important in immunotherapy. Nodal is a member of the TGF-beta family playing important roles in tissue stem cells and cancer stem cells (CSCs), interacting with the co-receptor Cripto-1, as well as with Activin type IB (Alk4) and Activin typeIIreceptors, and maintaining stemness and Notch and Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in CSCs. In recent years, it has been reported that Cripto-1 could be a potential therapeutic target in CSCs. Here, we review the accumulated literature on the molecular mechanisms by which Cripto-1 functions in CSCs and discuss the potential of Cripto-1 as an immunotherapeutic target in CSCs.

kn-title=Endogenous Bacterial Endophthalmitis Caused by Iliopsoas Abscess
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 79-year-old woman presented to our hospital with a 10-day history of gradually worsening binocular vision and severe backache. Further investigations revealed poor bilateral best-corrected visual acuities (BCVA), bilateral vitreous opacities, gray-white lesions scattered throughout the retina, and a left iliopsoas abscess on CT that later grew out methicillin-sensitive S. aureus. The abscess was drained and intravenous antibiotics were initiated, but the left eye additionally required intravitreal vancomycin. BCVA for both eyes normalized within 1 year. Intramuscular abscess should be considered as a possible primary lesion in cases of endogenous bacterial endophthalmitis.

kn-title=Pyogenic Ventriculitis After Anterior Skull Base Surgery Treated With Endoscopic Ventricular Irrigation And Reconstruction Using a Vascularized Flap
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Ventriculitis is a rare, serious complication of neurosurgery. A 59-year-old man who had undergone a craniotomy for a paranasal adenocarcinoma, developed a right frontal cystic lesion. We performed a bifrontal craniotomy to remove the lesion. The dura was repaired with non-vascularized free fascia lata in watertight fashion. Ventriculitis occurred 3 days postoperatively. Ventricular drainage, craniectomy, and endoscopic irrigation were undertaken to remove an abscess. The dura and the resection cavity were reconstructed using a vascularized anterolateral thigh adipofascial flap. His symptoms disappeared, indicating that endoscopic irrigation and reconstruction can effectively address ventriculitis even in patients in critical clinical condition.

kn-abstract=Targeted therapies for malignant melanoma have improved patients’ prognoses. A primary gastrointestinal malignant melanoma is very rare, with no standard treatment strategy. We treated a 78-year-old Japanese female with advanced primary gastrointestinal melanoma of the descending colon and gallbladder. We administered a multidisciplinary treatment: surgical resection of the descending colon and gallbladder tumors, resection of the metastatic lymph nodes behind the pancreas head, and immune checkpoint antibody-blockade therapy (nivolumab) for ~4 years. PET/CT demonstrated no recurrent lesion for > 3 years.  Multidisciplinary therapies (e.g., surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, target therapy, and immune checkpoint antibody-blockade therapy) can successfully treat primary gastrointestinal malignant melanoma.

kn-title=Successful Treatment of Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Complicated with Endometrial Cancer by Arsenic Trioxide

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a hematological emergency that requires urgent intervention because of the high incidence of early hemorrhagic death. When patients with APL experience a synchronous solid organ tumor, the tumor’s treatment must also be done properly. Differentiation-inducing therapy using arsenic trioxide (ATO) has less hematological toxicity compared to cytotoxic chemotherapy and might be preferable for untreated APL patients with a synchronous solid organ tumor. Here we describe the first successful case of untreated APL and synchronous endometrial cancer (in an adult Japanese woman) treated with ATO consolidation therapy and the subsequent surgery and chemotherapy for endometrial cancer.

kn-title=Multiacquisition Variable-Resonance Image Combination Selective Can Improve Image Quality and Reproducibility for Metallic Implants in the Lumbar Spine
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this study is to evaluate how metallic artifacts in the lumbar spine can affect images obtained from magnetic resonance (MR) sequences. We performed a phantom experiment by scanning an agar containing an orthopedic metallic implant using 64-channel multidetector row computed tomography (CT) and a 3-tesla MR unit. We compared the reproducibility in each measurement, enlargement or reduction ratio of the CT and MR measurements, and signal deviation in each voxel from the control. The reproducibility on CT and multiacquisition variable-resonance image combination selective (MAVRIC SL) was good, but that on the other MR sequences showed either fixed bias or proportional bias. The reduction ratios of the distance between the nails were significantly smaller in MAVRIC SL than in the other MR sequences after CT measurements (p<0.001, respectively). MAVRIC SL was able to reduce the metallic artifact, permitting observation of the tissue surrounding the metal with good reproducibility.

kn-title=Osteosynthesis for Geriatric Acetabular Fractures: An Epidemiological and Clinico-Radiological Study Related to Marginal or Roof Impaction
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This retrospective study sought to elucidate the incidence rates of roof impaction (RI) and marginal impaction (MI) and radiological and clinical outcomes of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for RI and MI in geriatric acetabular fractures. The cases of 68 patients aged ? 65 years (mean 71 years) treated with ORIF were analyzed. MI was present in 12 fractures (67%) and an RI of the weight-bearing surface was present in 24 (46%) of the potential fracture types. Regarding the reduction quality, 54% of the reductions were graded as anatomical, 37% as imperfect, and 9% as poor. In the clinical evaluations of the 45 patients who had > 1-year follow-up (follow-up rate: 66.2%), 18% were graded as excellent, 53% as good, 16% as fair, and 13% as poor. An anatomic reduction was strongly associated with good or excellent clinical and radiological outcomes. CT was superior to radiographs for detecting the residual displacement postoperatively. Postoperative deep infection occurred in four patients. Three patients (6.7%) underwent a total hip arthroplasty conversion due to secondary
osteoarthritis of the hip. We recommend ORIF as the preferred surgical treatment option for displaced acetabular fractures in elderly patients.

kn-title=Awareness of Complications of Dental Treatment in Patients Treated with Drugs Affecting the Immune System : A Nationwide Questionnaire Survey of Dental Practitioners in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this study was to investigate the awareness and experience, among dental practitioners, of adverse events resulting from dental treatment of patients undergoing therapy with drugs that affect the immune system [angiogenesis inhibitors, biological agents, immunosuppressants, and disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs)]. For this purpose, a nationwide questionnaire survey was conducted. Questionnaires were sent to 2,050 dentists, of which 206 (10.1%) were completed and returned. The results showed that most dentists were aware of complications associated with dental treatment of patients treated with drugs that affect the immune system, and about half had actually experienced such complications. Delayed wound healing, osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), and postoperative infections were reported. Whereas approximately 50% of dentists did not discontinue the drugs during dental treatment, about 18% did. During temporary drug discontinuation, some patients experienced aggravation of the primary disease, such as worsening of rheumatism, growth of tumors, and rejection reactions of transplanted organs. As for medical cooperation, only less than half of the dentists were asked for oral hygiene management by a physician prior to starting the drug treatment. Prospective studies are needed because evidence for dental treatments in patients treated with these drugs remains limited.

kn-title=Japanese Lung Cancer Society Guidelines for Stage IV NSCLC With EGFR Mutations
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Patients with NSCLC in East Asia, including Japan, frequently contain EGFR mutations. In 2018, we published the latest full clinical practice guidelines on the basis of those provided by the Japanese Lung Cancer Society Guidelines Committee. The purpose of this study was to update those recommendations, especially for the treatment of metastatic or recurrent EGFR-mutated NSCLC. We conducted a literature search of systematic reviews of randomized controlled and nonrandomized trials published between 2018 and 2019 that multiple physicians had reviewed independently. On the basis of those studies and the advice from the Japanese Society of Lung Cancer Expert Panel, we developed updated guidelines according to the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system. We also evaluated the benefits of overall and progression-free survival, end points, toxicities, and patients’ reported outcomes. For patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR-activating mutations, the use of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs), especially osimertinib, had the best recommendation as to first-line treatment. We also recommended the combination of EGFR TKI with other agents (platinum-based chemotherapy or antiangiogenic agents); however, it can lead to toxicity. In the presence of EGFR uncommon mutations, except for an exon 20 insertion, we also recommended the EGFR TKI treatment. However, we could not provide recommendations for the treatment of EGFR mutations with immune checkpoint inhibitors, including monotherapy, and its combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy, because of the?limited evidence present in the literature. The 2020 Japanese Lung Cancer Society Guidelines can help community-based physicians to determine the most appropriate treatments and adequately provide medical care to their patients.

kn-title=Dysostosis in mucopolysaccharidosis type 2: A case of longitudinal follow up and literature review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract= Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 is a congenital lysosomal disease characterized by iduronate-2-sulfatase deficiency, which leads to excessive accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in tissue. Dysostosis, which primarily involves decreased bone mineralization with morphological changes in the bone, is a major skeletal condition in mucopolysaccharidosis, but its pathophysiology is not well known. Here, we report a case of mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 diagnosed at the age of 2 years with longitudinal follow-up data for more than 15 years. Although the patient underwent bone marrow transplantation, the developmental quotient did not improve, and cranial hyperostosis progressed prominently with a faintly dilated perivascular space. Other dysostoses and contraction of the joints were observed but did not improve either.

kn-title=Catalog of prognostic tissue-based biomarkers in patients treated with neoadjuvant systemic therapy for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder: a systematic review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=PURPOSE<br/>
The present systematic review aimed to identify prognostic values of tissue-based biomarkers in patients treated with neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST), including chemotherapy (NAC) and checkpoint inhibitors (NAI) for urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB). <br/>
MATERIAL AND METHODS<br/>
The PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases were searched in August 2020 according to the PRISMA statement. Studies were deemed eligible if they compared oncologic or pathologic outcomes in patients treated with NAST for UCB with and without detected pretreatment tissue-based biomarkers. <br/>
RESULTS<br/>
Overall, 44 studies met our eligibility criteria. Twenty-three studies used immunohistochemistry (IHC), 19 ? gene expression analysis, three - quantitative polymerase chain reaction (QT PCR), and two ? next-generation sequencing (NGS). According to the currently available literature, predictive IHC-assessed biomarkers, such as receptor tyrosine kinases and DNA repair pathway alterations, do not seem to convincingly improve our prediction of pathologic response and oncologic outcomes after NAC. Luminal and basal tumor subtypes based on gene expression analysis showed better NAC response, while claudin-low and luminal-infiltrated tumor subtypes did not. In terms of NAI, PD-L1 seems to maintain value as a predictive biomarker, while the utility of both tumor mutational burden and molecular subtypes remains controversial. Specific genomic alterations in DNA repair genes have been shown to provide significant predictive value in patient treated with NAC. QT PCR quantification of specific genes selected through microarray analysis seems to classify cases regarding their NAC response. <br/>
CONCLUSION<br/>
We believe that the present systematic review may offer a robust framework that will enable the testing and validation of predictive biomarkers in future prospective clinical trials. NGS has expanded the discovery of molecular markers that are reflective of the mechanisms of the NAST response.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=The purpose of this study was to review the interventions and practice of learning support for students with dyscalculia in regular junior high school. We conducted a literature survey focusing on the following four points: (1) learning form, (2) ICT and teaching materials, (3) learning content, and (4) motivation to learn. Based on the assessment of the disability of students, appropriate learning forms and teaching materials should be selected. It is recommended to build a support system at school. In the leaning content, there were many practical examples of individual support in the "number and formula" area. Psychological support for students with dyscalculia is needed to motivate them to learn. It was pointed out that it is necessary to support while respecting the will of the students. Future tasks are to verify new support methods and contents using ICT and their effects, and to develop learning support contents tailored to the individual characteristics of students with dyscalculia. and select flexible support methods according to the student's situation. It is important to select a flexible support method according to the student’s situation.
kn-abstract=本研究の目的は、中学校通常学級での算数障害生徒への学習支援に関する研究・実践について整理し、支援の方法及び内容と今後の課題を明らかにすることである。中学校・高等学校での学習支援に関する実践論文を中心に文献調査を行い、�@学習形態�AICT や教材教具 �B学習内容�C学習意欲の４つに焦点をあてて検討した。生徒の障害特性のアセスメントをもとに適切な学習形態や教材を選択すること、支援体制を構築することの重要性が明らかになった。学習内容では、「数と式」領域に個別の支援の実践例が多いこと、学習意欲では、算数障害生徒は心理的サポートが必要であり、生徒の気持ちを尊重しながら支援する必要があることが指摘されていた。ICT を活用した新しい支援方法や内容とその効果の検証、及び算数障害生徒の個々の特性に合わせた学習支援コンテンツの開発が今後の課題であり、生徒の状況に応じた柔軟な支援法を選択していくことが重要であると言える。

kn-title=Minimally Invasive Spinal Stabilization with Denosumab before Total Spondylectomy for a Collapsing Lower Lumbar Spinal Giant Cell Tumor
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 21-year-old man consulted our hospital for treatment of a spinal giant cell tumor (GCT) of Enneking stage III. Lower lumbar-spine tumors and severe spinal canal stenosis are associated with high risk for surgical mor-bidity. Stability was temporarily secured with a percutaneous pedicle screw fixation in combination with deno-sumab, which shrank the tumor. Total en bloc spondylectomy was then performed 6 months after initiation of denosumab, and the patient was followed for 3 years. There was no local recurrence, and bony fusion was obtained. Minimally invasive surgery and denosumab allowed safer and easier treatment of a collapsing lower lumbar extra-compartmental GCT.

kn-title=The Thickness of the Medial Wall of the Acetabulum Prevents Acetabular Fracture during the Insertion of a Cementless Cup in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Biomechanical Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Intra-operative acetabular fracture is a total hip arthroplasty complication that can occur during cementless cup insertion, especially in osteoporotic patients. We conducted this biomechanical study to investigate the impact resistance of the acetabulum with simulated bones of different density by drop-weight impact testing. Low- and high-density polyurethane foam blocks were used as osteoporotic and healthy bone models, respectively. Polyurethane blocks were used as the acetabular cancellous bone. Composite sheets were used as the acetabu-lum’s medial cortex. The testing revealed that the osteoporotic bone model’s impact resistance was significantly lower than that the healthy bone model’. In the healthy bone model, even thin acetabular cancellous bone with ? 1 mm acetabulum medial cortex was less likely to fracture. In the osteoporotic bone model, fracture was pos-sible without ? 1 mm medial cortex of the acetabulum and thick acetabular cancellous bone. Although impac-tion resistance differs due to bone quality, the impaction resistance in this osteoporotic bone model was equiv-alent to that healthy bone model’s when a thick medial wall was present. To avoid intra-operative acetabulum fracture, surgeons should consider both the bone quality and the thicknesses of the medial cortex and acetabu-lar cancellous bone.

kn-title=Needle Tract Ablation in Liver Tissue Using a Cryoprobe Combined with an Electrosurgical Device: Influence of ex vivo and in vivo Animal Models
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=To assess the feasibility of needle tract ablation in liver tissue in ex vivo and in vivo animal models using a cryo-probe and electrosurgical device. The experimental device is made by inserting a cryoprobe through an intro-ducer sheath for insulation, with 2-cm of probe tip projecting out. A beagle liver was punctured by the device, and electric current was applied at 30-W with the electrosurgical knife touching the non-insulated device base. The discolored area of cut surface along the device was evaluated in 5 application-time groups (5 , 10 , 15 , 20, or 25 seconds). An ex vivo experiment was performed to determine an ablation algorithm with an appropriate application time by comparison with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) results. Thereafter, an in vivo experiment was performed to verify the algorithm’s feasibility. In the ex vivo model, the cut surface demonstrated different amounts of discolored area according to the application time. The total discolored area in the 20-seconds group was similar to that by RFA. In the in vivo model, the liver did not bleed, the total discolored area was similar to that ex vivo, and coagulation necrosis was confirmed by photomicrograph. Needle tract ablation can be per-formed using the experimental device and electrosurgical device.

kn-title=Review of the diagnosis of gastrointestinal lanthanum deposition
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Lanthanum carbonate is used for treatment of hyperphosphatemia mostly in patients with chronic renal failure. Although lanthanum carbonate is safe, recently, lanthanum deposition in the gastrointestinal mucosa of patients has been reported in the literature. This review provides an overview of gastroduodenal lanthanum deposition and focuses on disease’s endoscopic, radiological, and histological features, prevalence, and outcome, by reviewing relevant clinical studies, case reports, and basic research findings, to better understand the endoscopic manifestation of gastrointestinal lanthanum deposition. The possible relationship between gastric lanthanum deposition pattern and gastric mucosal atrophy is also illustrated; in patients without gastric mucosal atrophy, gastric lanthanum deposition appears as diffuse white lesions in the posterior wall and lesser curvature of the gastric body. In the gastric mucosa with atrophy, lanthanum-related lesions likely appear as annular or granular whitish lesions. Moreover, these white lesions are probably more frequently observed in the lower part of the stomach, where intestinal metaplasia begins.

kn-title=Adult T-cell Leukemia-lymphoma with Primary Breast Involvement: A Case Report and Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Breast involvement of Adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATLL) is extremely rare, and the data on the characteristics are limited. We herein describe a 49-year-old woman who presented with skin involvement of ATLL. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed bilateral breast lesions. Although the patient once achieved a complete metabolic response, a relapse of her ATLL occurred. The patient received subsequent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). To our knowledge, only four cases of ATLL with breast involvement have previously been reported, and the prognoses have generally been poor. Breast lesions of ATLL have aggressive features, and intensive systemic chemotherapy and HSCT are required to improve survival.

kn-abstract=Soft tissue myoepitheliomas are often misdiagnosed due to their rarity. Herein, we describe a case of soft tissue myoepithelioma of the shoulder. A 72-year-old woman had a suspected sarcoma on her shoulder and under-went open biopsy. She was referred to our hospital, where the tumor was widely resected and the diagnosis of myoepithelioma was histologically confirmed. No recurrence has been observed in the 3 years since the sur-gery. Careful and prompt planning is necessary for the effective treatment of myoepithelioma.

kn-abstract=Cardiac metastasis originating from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rare condition with a poor prognosis. No therapeutic standards for cardiac metastasis originating from HCC have been established. At 19 months after a curative hepatectomy, a 64-year-old Japanese hepatitis B virus-positive male patient experienced solitary cardiac metastasis originating from HCC. The cardiac tumor was discovered in the right ventricle. The patient received three courses of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and survived > 3 years after the initial diagnosis of cardiac metastasis. His case demonstrates that radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy can be an effective treatment for cardiac metastasis.

kn-title=Bilateral Approach for Thoracoscopic Esophagectomy in a Patient with Esophageal Cancer and Solitary Posterior Thoracic Para-aortic Lymph  Node Metastasis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a successful dissection of metastatic posterior thoracic para-aortic lymph node (No. 112aoP) via bilateral thoracoscopic surgery. With the anesthetized patient (a 73-year-old Japanese woman) in the prone position, two working ports were inserted for the left-side approach, and artificial pneumothorax was created. Thoracoscopic examination revealed a swollen LN posterior to the descending aorta. Fat and metastatic LNs posterior to the aorta were dissected from the aortic arch level to the diaphragm while preserving intercostal arteries. For the right-side approach, two working ports were inserted and a routine thoracoscopic esophagec-tomy was performed. Gastric conduit reconstruction was achieved laparoscopically. Operation time for the left thoracic procedure: 54 min; estimated blood loss: almost none. No recurrence was detected 24 months post-operatively. There are several surgical options for approaching No. 112aoP, including transhiatal, left thora-cotomy, and thoracoscopy. Although a wide dissection of the posterior thoracic para-aortic area has not been reported, it may be feasible and safe if the artery of Adamkiewicz and intercostal arteries are preserved. A min-imally invasive bilateral thoracoscopic approach for a thoracoscopic esophagectomy is safe and useful for esophageal cancer patients with solitary No. 112aoP metastasis.

kn-title=Pediatric growing teratoma syndrome of the ovary A case report and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Rationale: </br>
Growing teratoma syndrome is defined as an increase in tumor size during or after systemic chemotherapy for germ cell tumors. These cases involve normal tumor maker levels and histological features of only mature teratoma. We report a rare case of an ovarian immature teratoma in a Japanese child that was diagnosed as growing teratoma syndrome.</br>
Patient concerns: </br>
A 12-year-old girl presented a painful abdominal mass. She underwent left salpingo-oophorectomy for grade 1 immature teratoma in the left ovary. She did not undergo additional chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Four months later, she presented with grade 3 immature teratoma disseminated into the abdomen and pelvis. Chemotherapy resulted in the tumor maker levels returning to their normal ranges, although the tumors had grown slightly.</br>
Diagnosis: </br>
The specimens resected by laparotomy after the chemotherapy consisted of mature tissue predominantly, although primitive neuroepithelium was observed in a small part of the specimen. The pathological diagnosis was grade 1 immature teratoma, notwithstanding the clinical diagnosis was growing teratoma syndrome based on the clinical features and pathogenesis.</br>
Interventions: </br>
Laparotomy was performed at 7 months after the first operation, with resection of various tumors as well as the rectum, sigmoid colon, residual left fallopian duct, and a small part of the ileum and omentum. Some small tumors at the parietal peritoneum were ablated, although many tiny tumors around the uterus were left untreated.</br>
Outcomes: </br>
The patient has been free from recurrence for 5 years.</br>
Lessons: </br>
Growing teratoma syndrome can develop in children, and their tumor size is comparable to that in adolescents and adults. Furthermore, development of growing teratoma syndrome from a primary germ cell tumor is presumably faster in children than in adolescents and adults. Complete resection of all growing teratoma tissue is recommended, although fertility-sparing surgery should be considered when possible.

kn-title=Triple-negative pleomorphic lobular carcinoma and expression of androgen receptor: Personal case series and review of the literature
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pleomorphic lobular carcinoma (PLC) is a histological variant of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and is associated with worse prognosis than classical ILC. It exhibits a greater degree of cellular atypia and pleomorphism and is occasionally accompanied with apocrine morphology. We investigated the immunohistochemical characteristics of samples from 31 Japanese patients with PLC to elucidate the clinicopathological characteristics of PLC including androgen receptor (AR) immunoreactivity. The surrogate molecular subtypes were luminal A-like, luminal B-like, luminal B-like/HER2, HER2-type, and triple-negative in 5, 4, 3, 5, and 14 cases, respectively. AR was positive in 92.8% (13/14) of the triple-negative PLC cases and 100% (10/10) of the non-triple-negative PLC cases. Disease-specific survival was worse in patients with histological grade 3 PLCs than in those with histological grade 2 PLCs (p = 0.007). However, there was no significant difference in the progression-free survival between the two groups (p = 0.152). No other clinicopathological characteristics were associated with prognosis. These results reveal that PLC exhibits various surrogate molecular subtypes and that the triple-negative subtype frequently expresses AR. The observed molecular apocrine differentiation implicates that triple-negative PLC can be categorized into the luminal AR subtype. Furthermore, AR-targeted therapy might be useful for patients with triple-negative PLC.

kn-title=Pathologically Proven Intraocular Infiltration With Adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma: Two New Cases With Either Vitreous Opacity or Aqueous Hypopyon and Literature Review of 16 Cases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study reported 2 new patients and 16 historical cases with pathologically proven intraocular infiltration with adult T-cell leukemia and lymphoma (ATLL) to know the timing of intraocular infiltration in the disease course. The first case was a 67-year-old woman who developed bilateral vitreous opacity about half a year after the onset of acute type of ATLL that had been unresponsive to chemotherapy. She underwent vitrectomy combined with cataract surgery in both eyes. She had bilateral optic disc atrophy and localized retinal white infiltrates in both eyes. Cytological examination of vitreous aspirates demonstrated medium-sized cells with aberrant flower-like convoluted nuclei, positive for CD3, and thus indicative of T-cells. The second case was a 38-year-old man who was diagnosed acute type of ATLL at the presentation of acute kidney injury. About half a year after initial chemotherapy and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, he developed aqueous hypopyon in the right eye, concurrent with cutaneous and central nervous system relapse. Aqueous tap disclosed class V abnormal cells. The aqueous “pseudohypopyon” resolved in response to another round of chemotherapy with mogamulizumab. In review of 18 patients, intraocular infiltration with ATLL was diagnosed by vitrectomy in 9, aqueous tap in 3, chorioretinal biopsy in 3, and autopsy in 3. The intraocular infiltration developed concurrently with systemic diagnosis of ATLL in 5 patients, but developed later after chemotherapy in 13. In conclusion, intraocular infiltration with ATLL appears rare, and pathological diagnosis by vitrectomy and aqueous tap would help determine therapeutic plan in relapse after chemotherapy.
