Abstract A 78-year-old Japanese woman was referred to our hospital because of fecal occult blood. Barium enema and CT colonography revealed the herniation of the transverse colon and the greater omentum into the right hemithorax through a retrosternal defect. We diagnosed a Morgagni hernia, and we performed a laparoscopic hernia repair with a three-port approach. The invaginated transverse colon and omentum were easily reduced into the abdominal cavity. The size of the hernial orifice was estimated to be approx. 2.5×4 cm. We placed Ventralight ST® mesh over the hernial orifice without hernial sac resection, and we used the double-crown technique to fix the mesh with a hernia stapler. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on the 5th postoperative day with no complications. There has been no recurrence at 2 years after the surgery. Laparoscopic repair is a safe, less-invasive and useful method for repairing a Morgagni hernia.

Abstract A minimally invasive surgical (MIS) procedure is an ideal surgical procedure. Many MIS techniques have been reported in spinal surgery. In clinical practice, we often encounter two-level canal stenosis cases, in which one level shows instability and the other does not. In such a case, fusion surgery for one level and decompression surgery for the other level is ideal. LLIF/OLIF approached from the lateral side has been reported effective. MIS decompression techniques in the lateral decubitus position have never been reported. We devised a surgical method that can accomplish both fixation and decompression in a consistent lateral decubitus position.

Abstract Eight years prior to her present admission, a 61-year-old Japanese woman was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis, slowly progressive insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and chronic thyroiditis; she had been treated with oral prednisolone (PSL). After she suddenly discontinued PSL, she newly developed systemic lupus erythematosus. A combination therapy of oral PSL and intravenous cyclophosphamide resulted in remission. She was finally diagnosed with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome (APS) type 3 (3A ,3B, 3D), complicated with four different autoimmune diseases. Since patients with type 3 APS may present many manifestations over a long period of time, they should be carefully monitored.

Abstract A 35-year-old man was referred to our hospital for chronic abdominal pain and diarrhea. Computed tomography showed wall thickening, poor contrast enhancement and calcification of the ascending colon, which were consistent with phlebosclerotic colitis. Malignant character was not detected from a biopsy specimen. Operatively, we observed a scirrhous mass of the ascending colon invading surrounding tissue, which was diagnosed as signet ring cell carcinoma based on analysis of an intraoperative frozen section. Right hemicolectomy with regional lymph node dissection was performed. This case was extremely similar to phlebosclerotic colitis in clinical findings; surgical resection was required for correct diagnosis.

Abstract Urothelial carcinoma usually presents with hematuria, but cases of multiple lymphadenopathy with elevated S-pancreas-1 antigen (SPan-1) levels have not been reported. A 62-year-old Japanese man with lymphadenopathies was diagnosed with an adenocarcinoma of unknown origin and transferred to our hospital for further diagnosis. Serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and SPan-1 levels were extremely elevated. Uroplakin III immunostaining was positive in the inguinal lymph node, and cystoscopy revealed the presence of invasive urothelial carcinoma. Treatment with cisplatin and gemcitabine promoted a complete metabolic response for > 4 years. The detection of uroplakin III and serum SPan-1 might help diagnose urothelial carcinoma.

Abstract Nager syndrome is a rare disease involving severe micrognathia and upper limb shortening. In this report, we describe a case in which micrognathia of the fetus was suspected based on the observation of upper limb shortening during detailed B mode and 3D/4D ultrasonographic observation, and combined fetal MRI and 3D-CT led to a prenatal diagnosis of Nager syndrome. Upon birth, because severe micrognathia caused airway obstruction and made it difficult to spread the larynx for intubation, effective ventilation could not be carried out and a tracheostomy was necessary. Since a differential diagnosis of Nager syndrome can be made based on the fact that micrognathia typically co-occurs with upper limb shortening, it is possible to diagnose the disease before birth and prepare for life-saving measures accordingly.

Abstract Nephron-sparing treatment should be offered whenever possible to avoid dialysis in allograph cases. Cryoablation is a new treatment option for treating small-sized renal cell cancer (RCCs). We report a case of RCC arising in a kidney allograft treated by cryoablation. To our knowledge, this is the first case in Asia of RCC in a renal allograft treated using cryoablation. Contrast-enhanced CT-guided percutaneous renal needle biopsy and cryoablation were used to identify the RCC, which could not be identified by other techniques. The postoperative course was uneventful. Contrast-enhanced CT also showed no recurrence or metastases at the 6-month follow-up.

Abstract A previously healthy 40-year-old Japanese male was urgently admitted with a 2-month history of dysphagia, 30-kg weight loss, and fever. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibodies and cytomegalovirus antigenemia were positive. Pneumocystis pneumonia and cytomegalovirus pneumonia were suspected. The patient was diagnosed with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Cytomegalovirus antigenemia became negative 20 days after the positive result. On hospital day 41, he experienced cardiopulmonary arrest. The clinical diagnosis was fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus. He later developed hypoglycemia and was diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency accompanied by septic shock. He died of multiple organ failure 29 h post-admission to our ICU.

Abstract Orthodontists need to understand the orthodontic risks associated with systemic disorders. Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder with genetic and morphological variability. The risks of orthodontic treatment in ARS patients have been unclear. Here we describe the correction of an anterior open bite in a 15-year-old Japanese female ARS patient by molar intrusion using sectional archwires with miniscrew implants. An undesirable development of external apical root resorption (EARR) was observed in all intrusive force-applied posterior teeth during the patient’s orthodontic treatment, suggesting that ARS patients have a higher risk of EARR than the general population.

Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) after ACL rupture improves the instability of the knee joint and decreases mechanical stress to the meniscus and articular cartilage. However, there are reports that post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is observed over time following ACLR. In this study, we assessed changes in cartilage lesions by arthroscopic findings following anatomical double-bundle ACLR and at post-operative second-look arthroscopy about 14 months later. We retrospectively evaluated 37 knees in cases with patients <40 years of age who had undergone an anatomical double-bundle ACL reconstruction <1 year after ACL rupture injury from March 2012 to December 2016. Clinical results and arthroscopic cartilage/meniscal lesion were evaluated and compared between a cartilage lesion-detected group and intact-cartilage group. Surgery improved anteroposterior laxity and other clinical measures; however, cartilage lesions were detected at 11 sites during ACLR and at 54 sites at second-look arthroscopy. The periods from injury to second-look arthroscopy and from ACLR to second-look arthroscopy were significantly longer in the cartilage-lesion group (n=23) than in the intact-cartilage group (n=14). Conversely, 96% of meniscal damage observed during ACLR was cured at the time of second-look arthroscopy. Knee articular cartilage lesions after ACL rupture cannot be completely suppressed, even using the anatomical ACL reconstruction technique. This study suggested that articular cartilage lesions can progress to a level that can be confirmed arthroscopically at approximately 17 months after ACL injury. Therefore, in ACLR patients, the possibility of developing knee articular cartilage lesions and PTOA should be considered.

Abstract Most cases of transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM) in neonates with Down syndrome (DS) resolve spontaneously; however, DS-TAM neonates with hydrops fetalis (HF) show poor clinical outcomes. We report three infants with DS-TAM and HF who were treated with exchange transfusion (ET) followed by low-dose cytarabine (LD-CA). All of them survived without developing liver failure, acute leukemia, or other serious adverse events. Our results suggest that this combination treatment with ET and LD-CA would be safe, tolerable and effective as an novel approach for DS-TAM patients with HF.

Abstract We report a rare case of fistulation to the jejunum after percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). An 85-year-old man with previous cerebral infarction and swallowing disturbance underwent PEG. Nine months later, he developed a high fever and discharge around the gastrostomy button. He was diagnosed with aspiration pneumonia, and administered antibiotic therapy. Examination showed digestive fluid around the gastrostomy button. Gastrointestinal contrast-enhanced CT revealed a gastrojejunocutaneous fistula. The button was removed, and the fistula closed naturally. PEG was performed again. The patient’s postoperative course was uneventful. Gastrojejunocutaneous fistula should be considered in cases involving increased discharge from a gastrostomy fistula.

Abstract Radical trachelectomy (RT) is a fertility-sparing surgery for cervical cancer. Postoperative pregnancies have a high risk of abortion and prematurity. To prevent this, a procedure involving transabdominal cerclage (TAC) was devised for shortened cervical canals post-RT. Here we describe the successful management of a pregnancy after abdominal RT (ART). The 34-year-old patient was gravida 1, para 0. When she was 27, she underwent ART for stage Ib1 cervical cancer, and she became pregnant 7 years later. Because her cervical canal was 16.7 mm during early pregnancy, we performed TAC at 12 weeks of pregnancy. Post-surgery, we administered an infusion of ritodrine hydrochloride for tocolysis. A selective caesarean section was performed at 36 weeks, with the delivery of a healthy infant.

Abstract Anterior cervical plate fixation is a common surgical treatment for cervical spine trauma, disc herniation, or cervical spondylosis. Esophageal perforation following anterior cervical plate fixation is a rare but serious complication. Management of esophageal perforation is controversial; however, we suggest treating most cases surgically because this condition is slow to heal and often fatal. We managed 2 cases of esophageal perforation following anterior cervical plate fixation by flap reconstruction with the pectoralis major muscle in one case and a jejunal free flap in the other. Here, we report our experience and review the surgical indications.

Abstract Preoperative oral care is helpful to prevent postoperative complications in patients who are undergoing esophagectomy. Here, we report the case of an 81-year-old Japanese man with an upper limb disability caused by post-polio syndrome who was receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy for esophageal cancer. He had poor oral health status and developed oral complications as a side effect of chemotherapy. He could not brush his teeth by himself. However, infection control by oral care provided by an interprofessional collaboration successfully improved his oral hygiene, and his follow-up involved no severe complications. Interprofessional collaboration is useful especially for patients with upper limb disability.

Abstract We report a case of congenital multiple ocular motor nerve palsy combined with splitting of the lateral rectus muscle (LR). A 59-year-old Japanese female was investigated for worsening esotropia after corrective surgery. She presented with left hypertropia (35Δ) and esotropia (45-50Δ). Orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed reduced belly sizes in the superior rectus, inferior rectus, and superior oblique muscles and splitting of the LR, extending from the origin to the belly, in the left eye. Splitting of the LR belly was detected on MRI in a case of congenital multiple ocular motor nerve palsy.

Abstract Patients with multi-system (MS)-type langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) show poor outcomes, especially congenital MS LCH cases were shown in high mortality rate. We experienced a congenital case of MS LCH with high risk organs, who needed intensive respiratory support after birth. Even though intensive chemotherapy was discontinued, this patient’s lung LCH lesions gradually became reduced and his respiratory condition recovered; therefore, we restarted and completed maintenance chemotherapy. The patient maintained complete remission for more than 4 years after the end of chemotherapy. Our case suggests that congenital MS LCH even with severe organ involvement can be treated successfully with chemotherapy.

Abstract Post-orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) hepatitis B recurrence is well-controlled with a nucleos(t)ide analogue and hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) combination, but the high cost and the potential risk of unknown infection associated with HBIG remain unresolved issues. Low-cost recombinant hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine administration is a potential solution to these problems. We retrospectively analyzed the rate and predictive factors of HBV vaccine success in 49 post-OLT patients: liver cirrhosis-type B (LC-B), n=28 patients; acute liver failure-type B (ALF-B), n=8; and non-HBV-related end-stage liver disease (non-B ESLD) who received a liver from anti-hepatitis B core antibody-positive donors, n=13. A positive anti-hepatitis B surface antibody response was achieved in 29% (8/28) of the LC-B group, 88% (7/8) of the ALF-B group, and 44% (4/9) of the adult non-B ESLD group. All four non-B ESLD infants showed vaccine success. The predictive factors for a good response in LC-B were young age, marital donor, and high donor age. ALF-B and non-B ESLD infants are thus good vaccination candidates. LC-B patients with marital donors are also good candidates, perhaps because the donated liver maintains an efficient immune memory to HBV, as the donors had already been infected in adulthood and showed adequate anti-HBV immune responses.

Abstract Esophageal achalasia is a disorder of the lower esophageal sphincter muscle. Our patient, a Japanese male in his 80's, had been experiencing dysphagia for almost 60 years. He was treated with balloon dilations and Heller-Dor 5 years prior to his present admission. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, esophageal radiography, and high-myotomy manometry indicated that the symptoms were likely due to abnormal peristalsis. With the patient’s informed consent, we performed a peroral endoscopic myotomy(POEM). The patient was discharged 4 days post-surgery. At the 6-month postoperative examination, no worsening of symptoms or relapse was observed. POEM is an excellent treatment method for esophageal achalasia from the perspective of therapeutic effect. We recommend that POEM be considered as the first-choice treatment for abnormal peristalsis after a Heller-Dor myotomy.
