We found a mistake in our recently published article.

The pulsed dye laser(Technomed pulsolith) with a wave-length of 504nm was irradiated directly in vitro on four human ureters which were obtained by ureteronephrectomy. The irradiation was at 5Hz with a pulse energy of 40 to 100mJ and total pulse count of 200 to 1000. Immediately after irradiation, the ureteral tissues were fixed with formalin solution and H&E stain. The extent of tissue damage was examined with light microscope. In this experimental study, we observed that mucosal damage occurred from pulse energy of 60mJ, total pulse rate of 600 and submucosal damage occurred from pulse energy of 80mJ, total pulse rate of 800. But We believed that the pulsed dye laser was safe because most stones were fragmented at less than a pulse energy of 80mJ, a total pulse rate of 800, and the ureter was irradiated indirectly during laser lithotripsy.

Total 9 cases of extraintestinal amoebiasis, amebic liver abscess and amebic lung abscess, were treated with metronidazole. The diagnosis and progress check were done by (1) stool examination, (2) size and pain of liver, (3) hematological examination, (4) urinanalysis, (5) X-ray or liver scanning (6) examination of aspirated pus from liver and (7) immobilization test of E. histolytica. Results are summarized as follows: Amebic hepatitis: Metronidazole was given to 3 cases with daily dose of 0.9-1.2 gm for 3-7 days. Clinical symptoms were completely restored by the treatment. Amebic lung abscess: One case was treated with metronidazole for 3 days with the daily dose 1.2 gm. X-ray findings showed remarkable improvement by the treatment. An additional administration of the drug for 6 days resulted complete resolution of the pneumonic changes. Amebic liver abscess: Four cases were treated with metronidazole. The daily doses were 0.4-2.4 gm and continued for 2-10 days. Aspiration of the abscess for 1-10 times or continuous drainage of pus were performed during the course supplementarily. All cases were recovered to normal by the combining treatment. No remarkable side effect was noticed by the drug administration, and no relapse was experienced up to date.
