Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is usually indolent. Although it was reported recently that about 20-30% cases of MALT lymphoma presented with a disseminated disease at diagnosis, it was described as a disease localized at diagnosis and remaining stable for a prolonged period. However, only a few cases of MALT lymphoma involved the lung and gastrointestinal tract all at once. We report a case of a 73-year-old man with disseminated MALT lymphoma. He presented with non-productive cough, initial chest radiograph showed a nodule in the right lower lobe. The diagnosis of stage IV MALT lymphoma was made by CT scan, video-assisted thoracoscopic excisional biopy, gastrofiberscopic biopsy and bone marrow biopsy. The lymphoma involved the lung, stomach and bone marrow at the time of diagnosis. Because he refused chemotherapy, he discharged after Helicobacter pylori eradication without chemotherapy. Regular follow-up examination did not show any evidence of disease progression over 22 months.

PURPOSE: We studied this study to see the effect of hearing music on response to pain during needling. We hypothesized that music would reduce pain in newborns. METHODS: Twenty term and near-term newborns were enrolled for the study. They were admitted to neonatal intensive care unit of Hanyang University Guri Hospital from May 1, 2011 to September 30, 2011. We evaluated pain response to needling, such as arterial puncture or heel prick, by using Neonatal Infant Pain Scale (NIPS; facial expression, crying, breathing patterns, arms, legs, state of arousal) and duration of crying through video recording. We started video recording when the newborns were stable with 0 score of NIPS, and continued for 3 minutes after needling. Each newborn took video-recordings in 2 separate periods. One was done with hearing music (Music group) and the other without music (Control group). Two observers reviewed the videotapes and gave final scores in agreement. T-test was done for comparisons of pain scale and duration of crying between music and control groups. RESULTS: Mean age and hospital days at test of the subjects were 6+/-5 days of life (1-16 days of life) and 3+/-2 days, respectively. Twenty-one of 40 needlings (52.5%) for blood sample were from radial arterial puncture and 19 (47.5%) from heel prick. The music group had lower NIPS score than the controls (5.6+/-1.1 vs 6.5+/-0.7, P=0.006). Among the NIPS parameters, the music group had lower scores in crying and arm (crying, 1.6+/-0.5 vs 1.9+/-0.3, P=0.028; arm, 0.3+/-0.5 vs 0.7+/-0.5, P=0.01) parameters. The remaining parameters such as facial expression, leg, breathing patterns and state of arousal, and duration of crying were not significantly different in 2 groups. CONCLUSION: c reduced pain response to needling in newborns. Music could be one of modalities to relieve pain during routine medical procedures in newborns.

A large proportion of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are women of reproductive age. Their fetal outcome is undoubtedly less favourable than in healthy women. Although there is no evidence of an increase in congenital anomalies, increased frequencies of miscarriage, stillbirth, growth retardation, and preterm delivery are recognized. It mainly depends on the compromise of uteroplacental circulation such as renal disease, hypertension and thrombopoietic action of antiphos-pholipid antibody. Besides a small proportion of the newborn infants get a neonatal lupus sydrome, the most serious component being congenital heart block. This complication occurs almost exclusively in the offspring of women with anti-Ro/SSA antibodies. In order to find out the effect on fetus and newborn infants born to SLE mother, we reviewed clinical records of 11 infants born to 9 mothers with confirmed or suspected SLE at Seoul National University Hospital between June 1981 and May 1991. The results obtained were as follows: 1) Seven mothers among 9 were confirmed as SLE and 2 were suspected. 2) There were 6 spontaneous abortions (20.0%) and 5 stillbirths (16.7%) in 5 mothers among thirty pregnancies of 9 mothers. 3) Among 11 newborns, 4 (36.4%) were premature and 2 (18.2%) were small for gestational age. 4) Six mothers had proteinuria, over 4+, in Albustix. Four of these, including 3 preeclampsia mothers, delivered preterm babies. Two of premature babies were born through Cesarean section due to fetal distress and expired of hyaline membrane disease and its complications. The other 2 had thrombocytopenia and leukocytopenia at birth. One of these had intracranial hemorrhage at birth and seizure. 5) There were 2 mothers who had positive anticardiolipin antibody with SLE or without SLE. One with SLE was continuing positivity of the antibody during pregnancy and delivered premature baby who expired of HMD and PDA. The other who had seroconversion to negativity during the first trimester developed intermittently sinus bradycardia without apnea for 3 days. 6) Two of 11 newborns had only talipes equinovarus. 7) One mother who had anti-Ro/SSA antibody delivered monozygotic twin. The first baby was neonatal lupus erythematosus with complete heart block and skin pigmentation. All of them were suspected to right aortic arch and Kommerell's diverticulum on echocardiogram. As the above results, SLE mothers can cause serious effect on fetus and newborn when accompanied with active renal impairment, hypertension and positive antiphospholipid antibody. So we should treat mother with SLE even during pregnancy and it may give better outcome to mother and fetus. It will be useful for diagnosis and treatment of neonatal lupus erythematosus that the prenatal test for anti-Ro/SSA antibody, fetal monitoring, fetal echocardiogram and postnatal close observation for skin are taken.

BACKGROUND: Venoveno bypass (VVB) has been used to achieve hemodynamic stability and decrease the incidence of renal dysfunction. However, VVB has many complications. The purpose of this study is to verify the safety of total clamping of the suprahepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) without VVB during orthotropic liver transplantation (OLT) in terms of anesthetic management. METHODS: Twenty-five patients without preoperative renal dysfunction who underwent primary OLT were enrolled in this study. Hemodynamic data and blood gas measurements were collected 1 hour after incision, 30 minutes after IVC total clamping and 30 minutes after reperfusion. Postoperative laboratory data, including blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), were assessed at postoperative day (POD) 0-7, 30, 90, 180 and 1 year. RESULTS: Mean blood pressure was well maintained during IVC total clamping with infusion of inotropics. There was no case of severe acidosis (pH < 7.2) during the anhepatic period. The immediate postoperative Cr and GFR were not significantly different from those of the preoperative values. BUN increased from POD 1 and decreased after POD 6, while Cr increased at POD 90 only. CONCLUSIONS: In patients without preoperative renal dysfunction, when IVC was totally clamped, VVB does not need to be routinely performed to maintain hemodynamics during the anhepatic phase and renal function after OLT.
