OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the CT findings of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater and to differentiate from other periampullary carcinoma including the carcinoma of the distal common bile duct and pancreas head. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the CT findings of 13 cases of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater, 20 cases of the carcinoma of the distal common bile duct and 20 cases of the carcinoma of the pancreas head confirmed by pathology. Five millimeter consecutive settings of CT scan were performed in all cases on ampulla level with supine position. The CT findings were retrospectively evaluated in view of common bile duct dilatation, pattern of termination of bile duct, pancreatic duct dilatation, protruding mass in duodenal lumen, and regional lymph node metastasis. RESULTS: All case of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater(13/13) and distal common bile duct(20/20) showed common bile duct dilatation with abrupt termination. Among the 10 cases of the carcinoma of the pancreas head with common bile duct dilatation, five cases each had is abrupt termination(5/20) and gradual stenosis of bile duct(5/20). Five cases of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater(5/13) and four cases of the carcinoma of distal common bile duct(4/20) showed pancreatic duct dilatation and all cases of the carcinoma of pancreas head show pancreatic duct dialtation(20/20). Twenty cases of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater showed protruding mass in the medial wall of the second portion of the duodenum(12/13) but only one case of the carcinoma of the distal common bile duct(I/20) and five cases of the carcinoma of the pancreas head (5/20) had protruding mass in the duodenal lumen. Only one case of the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater showed(1/13) regional lymph node metastasis but three cases of the carcinoma of the distal common bile duct(3/20) and 18 cases of the carcinoma of the pancreas head(18/20) showed regional lymph node metastasis. CONCLUSION: Common bile duct dilatation with abrupt termination, protruding mass in the duodenal lumen and rare lymph node metastasis in CT may suggest the carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater.

We have experienced a case of occult hepatocellular carcinoma metastasized to the heart in a 41 year old female. The hepatocellular carcinoma invaded the hepatic vein, grew in a snakelike fashion up the inferior vena cava and reached the right atrium. Ultrastural examination in this case confirmed the hepatocellular origin of the tumor.

The anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) is one of the major stabilizers of knee motion. The ACL does not heal once torn, unlike many other biological tissues. Its absence can lead to severe joint instability which can lead to disruptions of secondary restraints around the knee and then progress to degenerative joint disease. Thus many authors advocate surgical intervention for a torn ACL in order to restore stability to the joint. Yet, there is still controversy as to best treatment for the ACL injuries. It is desirable to be considered for the patients age, the severity of the injury, and the future activity level of the patient to decide treatment. We analyzed thirty ACL acute injuries of twenty seven patients who had an ACL injury and treated surgically between Apr. 1986 and Dec. 1991 at St. Pauls Hospital. The results were as follows: 1. There were twenty five males and two females. The mean age was 33.4 years ranged, 15 to 52 years. 2. The anterior cruciate ligaments were torn at proximal portion in twenty two cases, at midportion and distal portion in four, respectively. 3. Two knees had isolated ACL injuries and twenty eight had combined injuries. 4. Twenty one out of twenty six cases treated with primary repair, and three out of four cases treated with reconstruction had good-excellent results.

The authors retrospectively reviewed the high resolution computed tomographic scans of 19 patients who had hematogenous or lymphangitic metastatic lung lesions. In all patients, the histologic diagnosis for primary cancers and the radiographic manifestations of pulmonary metastasis were established. Certain characteristic findings of metastatic lung tumors on HRCT scans were evident: uneven thickening of bronchovascular bundles, multiple small nodules, thickening of interlobular septum, and the presence of polygonal lines. The nodules are more predominent in hematogenous metastasis. The prevalent site of nodules is cortical portion of lung.

The pleomorphic adenoma is the most common neoplasm involving both the major and minor salivary glands. It is a benign, slowgrowing tumor, but local recurrences can occur. The pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 (PLAG1), which is a novel zinc finger gene, is frequently activated by reciprocal chromosomal translocations involving 8q12 in a subset of salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas. This experimental study was preformed to observe the translocation patterns between PLAG1 gene and the three translocation partner genes. We also have analyzed the presence of PLAG1 transcripts by RT-PCR. CTNNB1/PLAG1 gene fusion was observed in three of nine pleomorphic adnomas. However, LIFR/PLAG1 and SII/PLAG1 gene fusions were not detectable. All of three gene fusions was not detectable in one Warthin's tumor and three inflammatory salivary gland tissues. PLAG1 transcripts were expressed in all inflammatory salivary gland tissues and tumors except for three pleomorphic adenomas. Of particular one pleomorphic adenoma showing CTNNB1/P AG1 gene fusion did not express PLAG1 transcipt. Our data indicate that gene fusion involving PLAG1 is a frequent event in pleomorphic adenoma, but correlation between gene fusion involving PLAG1 and PLAG1 transcription is not definite.
