Xanthogranulnmatous pyelonephritis is an unusual chronic renal infection associated with renal calculi, urinary tract infection or obstruction in many cases. It is characterized by orange-yellow nodules of inflamed parenchymal tissue macroscopically and foamy lipid-laden histiocyte microscopically. We report a case of Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis in a 74 years old male.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between job strains and absenteeism from work. METHODS: The study design was cross-sectional, and the study subjects consisted of 1,166 workers who were employed in the small-sized industries. A self administered questionnaire was used to measure the general characteristics, job characteristics(job demand, job control), and social support(coworker support, supervisor support) at work. The Job Content Questionnaire(JCQ) was used to assess job demand(2 items) and decision lattitude(10 items). Social support at work (10 items) was measured using JCQ. Sick absence was collected using self-report and were rechecked by the attendance record of their company. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the association between job strain and sick absence were estimated. The modifying effect of social support was evaluated by stratification. Logistic regression was used to estimate the relationship between job strain and sick absence. RESULTS: In the bivariate analysis, the variables related to sick absence were age, marital status, occupation, job demand. Four distinctly different kinds of level of job strain were generated by the combination of job demand and job control: low strain group, high strain group, active group, and passive group. The crude odds ratio of high job strain was 1.78(95% CI: 1.26-2.53), and those of active group and passive group were 1.33(95% CI: 1.07-1.66) and 1.13 (95% CI: 0.88-1.47), respectively. The odds ratio of high job strain after adjusting for age and occupation were still significant. The odds ratio of high job strain in low social support was 5.96(95% CI: 2.45-14.51), but that in high social support was 0.73(95% CI: 0.26-2.01). CONCLUSIONS: Job strain was associated with increased risk of absenteeism from work, and social support at work modified the association between job strain and sick absence.

Severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening disease with a high mortality rate. Although many therapeutic trials have been performed for improving the mortality of severe ARDS, limited strategies have demonstrated better outcomes. Recently, advanced rescue therapies such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) made it possible to consider lung transplantation (LTPL) in patients with ARDS, but data is insufficient. We report a 62-year-old man who underwent LTPL due to ARDS with no underlying lung disease. He was admitted to the hospital due to influenza A pneumonia-induced ARDS. Although he was supported by ECMO, he progressively deteriorated. We judged that his lungs were irreversibly damaged and decided he needed to undergo LTPL. Finally, bilateral sequential double-lung transplantation was successfully performed. He has since been alive for three years. Conclusively, we demonstrate that LTPL can be a therapeutic option in patients with severe ARDS refractory to conventional therapies.

Benign esophageal tumors are infrequently encountered. We report a case of a successfully managed esophageal schwannoma in a 52 year old woman who was presented with progressively worsening dysphagia. The tumor was enucleated via a right thoracotomy.

BACKGROUND: Serious organ shortage necessitates ABO incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation (KT). Recent reports utilizing rituximab instead of splenectomy and tacrolimus (FK)-based triple immunosuppressants showed excellent graft outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS: Thirteen cases of ABOi living donor KT have been performed since Feb. 2007 in our center. Donor and recipient blood group was B to O (n=5), A1 to O (2), AB to B (2), AB to A1 (1), A1 to B (2) and B to A1 (1). Rituximab was given at 4 weeks before transplantation. Plasmapheresis (PP) was initiated at 7~14 days before transplantation with concurrent immunosuppressants. The number of pretransplant PP was 5.7+/-1.4. Posttransplant PP was also performed in 6 patients with higher initial titer of ABO antibody (IgG > or =256; n=2), rapidly rising antibody titer during the critical period of 2 weeks posttransplantation (n=2), or increase in serum creatinine during the critical period while awaiting pathology report of graft biopsy (n=2). Mean number of posttransplant PP in these 6 patients was 2.2+/-1.3. Median IgG anti-ABO antibody titer before precondition, at transplantation, at 2 weeks and at 6 months was 64 (8~512), 2 (1~8), 2 (1~16) and 6 (1~16), respectively. IgM titer at corresponding time point was 16 (2~128). 1 (1~1), 1 (1~2) and 1.5 (1~4), respectively. Median follow up was 8 (5~27) months. No patient or graft was lost. No patient developed acute humoral rejection. Graft function remained stable with latest serum creatinine 1.2+/-0.3 mg/dl. CONCLUSIONS: ABOi living donor KT without splenectomy can be safely performed with the use of current preconditioning and immunosuppressive regimen, and is therefore a valuable option for expanding donor pool and should be actively performed in Korea.
