Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate relationship between diabetes mellitus (DM) and tumor features in patients with non‐muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods: Data from 251 who underwent transurethral resection (TUR) for NMIBC January 2000 June 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients divided into two groups: Group I, 159 (63%) did not have DM at time surgery; (ii) II, 92 (37%) had surgery. Recurrence‐ progression‐free survival assessed both groups....
Surgical resection or ablation is recommended for the treatment of early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), whereas transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) frequently used in HCC ineligible curative resection. We evaluated clinical effects and safety radiofrequency (RFA) shortly after TACE patients with Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) stage A HCC.Sixty-seven BCLC who failed to achieve complete response as either a first line subsequently received RFA at Konkuk University Medical Center from...
A 36-year-old male patient with no remarkable medical history was admitted to our hospital for a health check up.On chest radiography, bilateral aortic notches at the level of arch were shown suggesting anomaly without any clinical symptoms.Two arches almost same-in-size on suprasternal view transthoracic echocardiography.In addition, multidetector computed tomography showed balanced type double forming complete vascular ring which encircled trachea and esophagus.The slightly compressed by...
Purpose: We evaluated men with documented chronic prostatitis and elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to determine whether treatment antibiotics anti-inflammatory drugs can lower PSA the cancer detection rate in patients post-treatment ＜4 ng/ml.Materials Methods: Eighty-six who presented greater than 4 ng/ml were subsequently diagnosed 10 white blood cells per high power field expressed prostatic excretions included this prospective study.Patients meeting these criteria underwent...
It has been demonstrated that the anomalous origin of coronary arteries (AOCA) are generally asymptomatic and rare diseases. However, some cases can cause severe life threatening events. To detect these anomalies, angiographies autopsies were used to artery but procedures have limitations because their invasiveness. The new device, Multidetector Computed Tomography (MDCT), now replaces method choice for detecting anomalies. prevalence anomalies in Korea not studied yet. This present analysis...
Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) and metaplastic (MG) are precancerous conditions of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-related gastric cancer. This study aimed to identify the characteristics nodular (NG) showing CAG or MG after nodule regression.H. pylori-infected patients with NG were included upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Patients excluded if their latest endoscopy had been performed ≤36 months initial diagnosis NG. Small-granular-type was defined as condition 1-2 mm regular...
The purpose of this study is to determine the predictive factors that are associated with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) in women.Between January 2008 and December 2009, 185 women urodynamically proven SUI were included retrospectively reviewed medical record. Preoperative symptoms classified by Stamey grade. Valsalva leak point pressure (VLPP) determination series was repeated two times each subject after finishing one VLPP measurement. patients...
Background/Aims Nodular gastritis (NG) is a well-known endoscopic finding observed in patients with Helicobacter pylori infection, which may lead to invasive gastric cancer. Lymphofollicular consists of lymphoid follicles or cell aggregates, and common children. The aim this study was identify NG from those whom biopsied specimens showed aggregates. Methods Subjects, whose biopsy were included study. inclusion criterion that they underwent serum pepsinogen assay on the day upper...
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) seroconversion may occur during screening for gastric cancer. Our study aimed to assess the number of seroconverted subjects with H. and their results in follow-up tests. Data were consecutively collected on who pylori-seronegative presented cancer screening. Subjects followed up using same serology test pepsinogen (PG) assays day endoscopy included study. During 57.7±21.4 months, 61 (15.0%) 407 seronegative showed seroconversion. infection was detected six...
서 론 비중격만곡증은 코막힘의 가장 흔한 원인 중 하나이며, 비 중격만곡증의 수술적 치료는 이비인후과 영역에서 흔하게 시 행되는 기본적인 수술이다.비중격은 형태와 기형의 정도가 다 양하여 비중격만곡증을 교정하기 위한 수술방법도 다양하게 소개되고 있다.수술방법은 비중격을 구성하는 연골을 철저 하게 제거하는 submucosal resection(SMR)부터 비중격성형술(basic septoplasty), 체외비중격성형술(extracorporeal septolasty), 레이저 비중격성형술(laser assisted 내시경을 이용한 비중격성형술(endoscopic septoplas-ty) 등 술자에 따라 다양한 방법이 시도되고 있고 수술의 수기 와 결과에 대한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 1) 이들 수술은 비중격만곡증의 교정뿐 아니라 비부비동내시경수술이나 성형의 보조적인 수술로도 널리 사용된다.
: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with surgically altered anatomy (SAA) is challenging to gastrointestinal endoscopists. The aim of this study was evaluate the impact scope exchange from a long single balloon enteroscope (SBE) gastroscope during SBE-assisted ERCP (SBE-ERCP) SAA.Patients who underwent SBE-ERCP between February 2019 and October 2020 were retrospectively identified. Intubation success, cannulation therapeutic success analyzed along...
Background A large number of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter, and ozone influence on the body. These put a burden lung sequelae resulting from oxidative stress are thought to contribute development fibrotic disease, emphysema, chronic bronchitis cancer. Also, monoxide generated incomplete combustion carbon-containing compounds is an important component air pollution caused by traffic exhaust fumes has toxic effect tissue hypoxia produce...
Abstract Rationale: Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) has become the norm for diagnosis of pancreatic solid lesions. EUS-TA is relatively safe, but various complications can occur. Infected necrosis (IPN) a rare serious complication. The latest guidelines suggest that all invasive interventions in patients with IPN should be delayed until walled-off appears. Patient concerns: A 73-year-old man was referred to our hospital double primary cancers including...
Postoperative abdominal fluid collection (PAFC) is a frequent complication of pancreatobiliary cancer surgery. The effects the existence and duration PAFC are not well known. This study aimed to assess on patient prognosis after surgery for adenocarcinoma association longstanding with recurrence pancreatic cancer.We retrospectively analyzed data 194 consecutive patients who underwent curative operations from August 2005 December 2019. presence was assessed using computed tomography within...

연구배경: 일반적으로 고식적 흉수천자가 어렵다고 판단되는 경우 초음파를 이용한 흉수천자를 영상의학과에 의뢰해 왔다. 의뢰할 검사를 위해 환자가 직접 이동해야 된다는 불편함과 영상의학과 스케줄에 따라 검사가 지연되거나 비용이 많이 드는 단점이 있다. 이에 저자들은 병실에서 내과 전공의들이 이용해서 시행하는 단계를 포함해서 흉수가 있는 환자에게 접근해보았다. 방 법: 2003년 3월부터 2005년 6월까지 입원한 환자중 확인된 환자들을 대상으로 하였고, 흉수의 양이 중등도 이상일 경우에는 천자를, 소량 이거나 소방이 형성된 또는 천자를 실패 하였을 때에는 시행하였다. 결 과: 총 89예의 연구대상 가운데 소방의 형성이 없으며 대량과 중등도의 양인 79예에서 시행하여 74예에서 성공하였다. 흉수 천자가 실패한 5예와 소량인 7예 그리고 소방형성이 3예를 합한 15예에서 시행하였고 10예에서 성공하였다(66.7%). 3예는 모두 실패하였다. 이 제외하면 12예 중 성공하여 83%의...
