In this study, we reviewed the clinical features of 11 patients with malignant schwannoma who were treated in our institute. Five patients had coexistent von Recklinghausen's disease and one of them showed multifocal occurrence. Patients with the centrally located tumors had a poorer prognosis than those with the others. The overall 3-year survival rate was 36%; 40% in patients with von Recklinghausen's disease and 33% in the others. At the time of the last follow-up, 9 patients had died of the tumor, one continued to be tumor free, and one was alive with tumor. Postoperative local recurrence developed in 5 patients (45%); 4 out of 6 patients (67%) who underwent a marginal excision and one out of 3 (33%) who underwent primary amputation. There was no local recurrence in patients after a wide excision with at least 3cm of normal tissue removed surrounding the tumor in all directions. Nine patients (82%) developed pulmonary metastasis. The effect of adjuvant chemotherapy was not clear in this study. The high risk of pulmonary metastasis in this disease indicates the necessity of more effective adjuvant chemotherapy.

Carpal tunnel pressure measurement can also aid in the precise identification of excessive pressure sites that indicate locations for release. In this study, pressure measurements made during endoscopic carpal tunnel release at 5 points were significantly higher anywhere in the carpal tunnel than outside the tunnel and decreased markedly after release. We concluded that our measurement technique can improve the reliability of endoscopic carpal tunnel release by decreasing the likelihood of missing any nerve entrapment sites.

Subcellular localization of these enzymes in rat liver cells was examined by biochemical fractionation. Endo G was located in both nuclei and mitochondria as has been previously reported, while the 55-kDa enzyme was only detected in the mitochondrial fraction. The levels of the endonucleases in the mitochondria varied greatly among the rat organs, and the activity in the heart was about 30 times higher than that in the liver. The 55-kDa enzyme and Endo G were extracted from bovine heart mitochondria with 0.4 M NaCl. During purification the 55-kDa enzyme and Endo G were copurified because of their similar chromatographic behavior, so they were separated by gel filtration or electrophoresis in the presence of SDS and the proteins were then renatured. The nucleolytic properties of the 55-kDa enzyme resembled those of Endo G and other known mitochondrial nucleases. The enzyme degraded single-stranded DNA more rapidly than duplex DNA at a weak alkaline pH, requiring Mg2+ or Mn2+ but not Ca2+ or Zn2+. Nicks generated by the enzyme had 5′-P and 3′-OH ends. The 55-kDa enzyme, like Endo G, displayed an unusually strong preference to nick within a (dG)n · (dC)n tract.

However, it is not known whether the increased serum SLEX levels are associated with the increased levels of its carrier molecules and/or the increased density of SLEX per carrier molecule. By using of rabbit antibody against an SLEX-positive fraction from HepG2 culture supernatant, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to determine the serum levels of the carrier molecules of SLEX (CMSLEX). The CMSLEX-levels in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were significantly higher than those of normal controls (P < 0.001) and benign chronic liver diseases, i.e., chronic active hepatitis, mild and severe form, and liver cirrhosis (P < 0.05). Patients with chronic persistent hepatitis and chronic active hepatitis, mild form, had higher CMSLEX-levels than normal controls (P < 0.05). The serum CMSLEX-levels did not differ significantly among benign liver diseases. We concluded that serum CMSLEX-levels increase nonspecifically in liver diseases. This is a possible molecular mechanism for the increased serum SLEX levels in liver diseases.

However, none of these can ultimately prevent devastating complications which result from ischemic spinal cord injury. A direct measurement of the oxygen content of the spinal cord may accurately indicate the perfusion state, but in practice it is impractical. We surmised that intrathecal and/ or epidural oxygen concentration(I-pO2 and E-pO2, respectively) accurately reflect oxygen content in the spinal cord. So, we examined whether or not I-pO2 and/or E-pO2 correlated with the spinal cord pO2 (S-pO2) in dogs. In nine mongrel dogs, a model of graded spinal cord ischemia was developed by stepwise alternation of the level of aortic occlusion with an intraaortic balloon catheter. I-pO2, E-pO2 and S-pO2 were measured with a mass spectrometer. Our results show that, both I-pO2 and E-pO2 significantly correlated with S-pO2. I-pO2 correlated with S-pO2 better than E-pO2 did. Therefore, I-pO2 can be used as a new indicator for spinal cord ischemia, and I-pO2 monitoring would be useful to prevent paraplegia associated with thoracic aortic surgery.

The BFV of the MCA was also investigated in 58 handicapped children, classified according to the severity of their motor and intellectual disability. The ratio of the MCA to the BA was lower by 2 SD from the mean of our previously reported standard value in 8 out of the 12 cases with severe motor and intellectual disability syndrome, suggesting a more profound decrease in the level of brain activity in the MCA area than that of the BA area. The BFV of the MCA mainly decreased in cases belonging to the category of the most severe motor disability (bed-ridden). Hence, it is suggested that motor disability is the main factor related to the decrease in the BFV of the MCA.

Amyloid deposits, positively identified as β2-microglobulin, appeared in all patients in the long-term hemodialysis group, but in no patients in the idiopathic group. Although the pathogenesis differed between the two groups, both resulted in nerve compression in the carpal tunnel. Therefore, surgical release is considered beneficial for both groups.

To judge the success of surgical methods and postoperative treatment, postoperative scars should be evaluated using a quantitative system. Height and width are easily measured, but scar redness is not. We have developed a simple and effective method for evaluating scar redness. According to the color definitions employed in computer graphics, each color can be expressed as RGB (red, green or blue) coordinates (r, g, b): 0 ≦ r, g, b ≦ 10. The degree of scar redness is defined by the following formula: redness score (RS) = (r1 - r0)2 + (g1 - g0)2 + (b1 - b0)2. Here, (R1, g1, b1) = coordinates of the scar color and (r0, g0, b0) = coordinates of the surrounding skin color. RS was evaluated in 59 children (35 males, 24 females; ages 1 month to 12 years old) who had scar redness after congenital cardiac surgery. For each patient, scar color and surrounding skin color was identified on the color sample table. Scar redness was also evaluated by the conventional grading method: 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe. The RS of the colored scars ranged from 4 to 100 (38 ± 27). By the conventional grading method, 44 scars were grade 1, 15 grade 2 and none grade 3. RS was significantly higher among grade 2 than grade 1 patients, 52 ± 25 and 33 ± 27, respectively (P < 0.05). Given its subjectivity, the conventional grading method yields variable data; surrounding skin color, moreover, is not considered. Our new evaluation method using RS effectively and accurately defines scar and skin colors, and allows quantitative studies of these factors.

The preoperative treatment was conducted with thermo-radio-chemotherapy in 11 cases of stage III, and with thermo-radiotherapy as well as thermo-chemotherapy in three cases of stages I and II. Hyperthermia was carried out twice a week with totals ranging from 4 to 14 times (average: 8.4 times); each session lasted 60min. Radiotherapy was administered four or five times per week, and the dose was 1.8 2Gy/fraction, with a total of 30-40Gy in a four week period. Chemotherapy was mainly in the form of MAID regimen (2-mercaptoethanesulphonic acid (mesna), adriamycin, ifosfamide and dacarbazine). The tumors were surgically resected in all patients after completing the preoperative treatment. The efficacy rate, as expressed by the percentage of either tumors in which reduction rate was 50% or more, or tumors for which post-treatment contrast enhanced CT image revealed low density volumes occupying 50% or more of the total mass, was 71 % (ten of the 14 tumors). The mean tumor necrosis rate in the resected specimens was 78%. The tumor necrosis rate was significantly high (P < 0.05) in patients whose Time ≥ 42°C was of long duration. Postoperative complications were observed in six patients; among these, two patients developed wound infection that required surgical treatment as a complication of surgery performed in the early stage following the preoperative treatment. After a mean postoperative follow-up of 27 months, distant metastasis occurred in four patients resulting in three fatalities. The three-year cumulative survival rate was 64.3%. No local recurrence was observed in any patient during the follow-up, thus confirming our hypothesis that preoperative multidisciplinary treatment has an excellent local efficacy. We think that it would be valuable to conduct, at many facilities, phase III studies on the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma by a combination of surgery and preoperative multidisciplinary treatment using hyperthermia, paying close attention to the interval between these two modalities.
