A 16-month-old boy swallowed accidentally a button type lithium battery with diameter 23 mm. The battery impacted at the upper esophagus was removed by endoscpy in 9 hours. At the time of removal, dark-crust and erythematous mucosal lesion was noted where the battery impacted. At the first hospital day, fever over 38.5 degrees C developed, and NPO, antibiotics and H-2 blocker started. At the third hospital day, he had melena, and endoscopy revealed huge active esophageal ulceration ranging from upper esophagus and lower body of the esophagus. Steroid started. At the 10th hospital day, endoscopy revealed much smaller-sized ulceration, but mucosa where the battery impacted initially showed deep depression which might imply developing diverticulum. At the 17th hospital day, endoscopy revealed complete diverticulum. At the 27th hospital day, endoscopy revealed complete resolution of diverticulum.

Sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is uncommon benign neoplasm of uncertain histogenesis, although their radiological appearance is relatively distinct and well-defined. Recently, we experienced 2 cases of sclerosing hemangiomas of the lungs in 61 and 39 years old women. The light microscopic findings of the tissues are similar to the features reported by Liebow and Hubbell(1956). The basic cellular response is thought to be type II pneumonocytes because of findings of multilamellar-like bodies within stromal cells with electron microscopy in case I in addition to other characteristics generally found in epithelial cells.

BACKGROUND: Defects in apoptotic signaling pathways play important role in tumor initiation, progression, metastasis and resistance to treatment. Several proteins which may promote tumorigenesis by inhibiting apoptosis were identified. The survivin protein is the member of inhibitor of apoptosis protein(IAPs) family which inhibits apoptosis. Unlike other IAPs, it is expressed in during the fetal period but not in adult differentiated tissues. Many reports have stated that survivin is selectively expressed in many cancer cell lines and cancer tissues. We performed immunohistochemical analysis for survivin expression in non-small cell lung cancer to get evaluate its clinical implication. METHODS: Twenty nine surgically resected lung cancers were examined. Immunohistochemical staining were performed by immuno-peroxidase technique using avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex in the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue 4 µm section. Anti-survivin polyclonal antibody was used for primary antibody and anti-p53 monoclonal antibody was also used to analyze the correlation between survivin and p53 expression. The survivin expression scores were determined by as the sum of the stained area and intensity. RESULTS: Immunohistochemical analysis showed cancer specific expression of survivin in 20 of 29 cases (69.0%). Western blot analysis also showed the selective survivin expression in turmor tissue. There was no correlation between survivin expression and clinicopathological parameters and prognosis. We analyzed the correlated between survivin expression and p53 expression, but found none. CONCLUSION: We confirmed the tumor specific expression of survivin in non-small cell lung cancer But this pression was not correlated with clinical parameters as well as histlogy, tumor stage recurrence, and sur rate. Also it ws not statistically correlated with the expression of p53.

Coronary arteriovenous fistula (CAF) is most common form of hemodynamically significant coronary anomaly. CAF combined with atrial septal defect (ASD), however, constitutes an uncommon subgroup of CAF. We present a case of congenital CAF combined with secondum ASD, which are manifested by congestive heart failure. These anomalies were identified by transthoracic echocardiography and coronary angiography respectively. These ASD and CAF were closed by operation successfully without any complication.
