Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma is histologically characterized by marked cellular pleomorphism of lipid-laden neoplastic astrocytes and bizarre giant cells showing mitotic figures and high cellularity. Inspite of its ominous-looking microscopic features, howerver, the prognosis is usually favorable. This tumor develops mainly in the supratentorial area of young people and frequently involves the leptomeninges. We experienced a case of pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma in 18 year-old-male. In addition to the cellular pleomophism, the prominent reticulin fibers surround the individual tumor cells or the tumor cells nests. Immunohistochemical staining and electron microscopy revealed glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) expression and pericytoplasmic basal lamina in the tumor cells.

Arytenoid subluxation or recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis may result from injury to the larynx following endotracheal intubation or blunt laryngeal trauma. Early diagnosis is important for appropriate treatment and better prognosis. A 62-years-old man was admitted for cholecystectomy. He was intubated without any difficulty and nasogastric tube was inserted with the help of laryngoscope and Magill forcep before surgery. He had a weak voice and hoarseness after atraumatic extubation and those symptoms did not improve even 2 days after. Indirect laryngoscopy, videolaryngotelescopy, electromyography(EMG) and computed tomographic findings revealed anterior, inferior subluxation of left cricoarytenoid cartilage associated with left thyroarytenoid muscle denervation and resultant unilateral vocal cord palsy. Conservative treatment for 40 days after the operation and follow-up examination was done. The voice quality was improved and indirect laryngoscopy examination showed that right vocal cord crossed midline in a attempt to meet its paralyzed counterpart on phonation.

Human Papillomaviruses(HPVs) are regarded as sexually transmitable and closely associated with precancerous lesions or invasive cancers of the vulva, vagina, and cer V1X. In situ hybridization, besides showing higher sensitivity, allowed the identification of specific viral types. We studied 12 cases of condylomata accuminata for HPV typing by in situ hybridization techenique. Ten cases(83.3 % ) showed positive for HPV type 6/11, and 2 cases(16.7% ) were positive for HPV type 16/18.

After discontinuation of bisphosphonate therapy, an antiresorptive effect and antifracture protection persist for an undefined period. Patients are encouraged to continue calcium and vitamin D supplementation, during a bisphosphonate drug holiday. However, assessment of adequate calcium intake during the bisphosphonate drug holiday is difficult. Therefore, we measured the serum intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) level as a surrogate marker. A premenopausal woman discontinued bisphosphonate therapy, after 7.5 years of treatment. Two months later, blood calcium and phosphorus levels were normal, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level was 31.3 ng/mL, but serum PTH level had increased to 94.9 pg/mL. The elemental calcium supplement dose was increased to 600 mg/day, with no change in the cholecalciferol dose (400 IU). Her serum PTH levels decreased to 49.1 after 4 months and 32.9 pg/mL after 5 months. The serum PTH level may be helpful in assessing adequate calcium intake during a bisphosphonate drug holiday.

Retinoids play an important role in growth, reproduction and differentiation. Recently, retinoids have been used to both protect and treat from various animal models of carcinogenesis. In this study the effect of N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) retinamide (fenretinide) on viability of human neuroblastoma cell lines were evaluated. For the evaluation of apoptosis of human neuroblastoma cell lines by fenretinide. MTT assay, cytoplasmic DNA fragmentation, TUNEL stain, and Western blot analysis were performed. In MTT assay, fenretinide inhibited the proliferation of CHP134, IMR32 and SH-SY5Y but not in PC12 cells. Cytoplasmic DNA fragmentation was induced by treament of fenretinide (10 micrometer) for 48 h in IMR32 cells. PARP cleavage was detected by Western blot analysis after 16 h of treatment of fenretinide in CHP134, IMR32 and SH-SY5Y. These fenretinide effects on growth inhibition and increased apoptosis followed to the time dependent manner. The fenretinide treatment did not affect the phosphorylation of MAP kinases (ERK, JNK, p38). There was no change of Bcl-x and Bad expression after treatment of fenretinide (1 micrometer) in neroblastoma cell lines. Pretreatement of PD98059, SB203580, LY294002, or genistein also did not affect fenretinide-induced PARP cleavage in neuroblastoma cell lines. From these results, the fenretinide-induced apoptosis is due to the PARP cleavage which occured MAP kinase signal cascades independently.
