1.52 cases of hepatic multiabscess received the pus aspiration under the direction of ultrasound and drug therapy
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 2001;267(12):37-42
52 patients suffered from hepatic multi-abscess with different causes, suitable for selected study criteria have been treated in combination of internal therapeutics and ECHO controlled pus-sucking. The result: Male/female: 49/3; The biggest number of abscesses in the patient was 20, the smallest number was 2. At each percutaneous puntion, pus-suckings were done maximally for 3 abscesses, minimally for 1 abscess. In a performance, 2-3 percutaneous functions, were applied and pus-suckings were done maximally at 5 abscesses. Most abscesses (75.6%) needed one pus-sucking; 24.4% of the rest needed 2-3 times. Therapeutics result: all patients recovered (52/52).

Anaplasma marginale and A. platys were detected and characterized (16S rDNA sequence analysis) from dairy and indigenous cattle, and the latter in domestic dogs in Vietnam. A phylogenetic tree was inferred from 26 representative strains/species of Anaplasma spp. including 10 new sequences from Vietnam. Seven of our Vietnamese sequences fell into the clade of A. marginale and 3 into A. platys, with strong nodal support of 99 and 90%, respectively. Low genetic distances (0.2–0.4%) within each species supported the identification. Anaplasma platys is able to infect humans. Our discovery of this species in cattle and domestic dogs raises considerable concern about zoonotic transmission in Vietnam. Further systematic investigations are needed to gain data for Anaplasma spp. and members of Anaplasmataceae in animal hosts, vectors and humans across Vietnam.
