Isolation Of An Acid-Fast Organism From The Aqueous Humor In A Case Of Sarcoidosis, C. L. Barth, M. S. Judge, L. H. Mattman, P. C. Hessburg Jun 1979

Isolation Of An Acid-Fast Organism From The Aqueous Humor In A Case Of Sarcoidosis, C. L. Barth, M. S. Judge, L. H. Mattman, P. C. Hessburg

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The anterior chamber fluid from the eye of this patient with sarcoidosis was found to contain microcolonies of a cellwall-deficient organism that was propagated and identified as acid-fast by the Intensified Acid-Fast stain. The colonies were inoculated into mice and retrieved from the dead or sacrificed animals. This report suggests that the acid-fast microbe in the aqueous humor of this case of uveitis-sarcoidosis may be the same organism as that found in the blood in sarcoidosis. Thus, it may be associated not only with the primary disease, but also with the complications of Boeck's sarcoidosis.


Portal Hypertension In Children: Three Case Reports And Review Of Recent Progress In Treatment, Philip J. Howard Jun 1979

Portal Hypertension In Children: Three Case Reports And Review Of Recent Progress In Treatment, Philip J. Howard

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The diagnosis and surgical management of extrahepatic portal hypertension in infants and children have improved dramatically in the last 50 years, as evidenced by the reported mortalities of 46% in 1928-1935 and only 12% in 1974. The diagnosis Is often evident from the first sudden gastrointestinal bleeding Incident and can be verified quickly with fiberoptic esophagoscopy and x-rays. The surgeon has a choice of multiple shunt procedures to control portal pressure.

Tumor Registry 1949-1975, Louisiana Tumor Registry, Pelayo Correa, Marise S. Gottlieb, Edward T. Krementz, Jane D. Roberts, Robert G. Weilbaecher

Policy & Position Papers

This Charity Hospital Tumor Registry monograph covers the period 1948 through 1975, and includes all patients with a diagnosis of cancer who were seen at Charity Hospital of Louisiana at New Orleans. A total of 45,493 cases were abstracted of which 41,049 are described in the monograph. This Registry includes skin cancer and all in situ cancers as well as 189 benign mixed tumors of the salivary gland, 262 meningiomas of the brain, 191 carcinoid tumors of the intestine, and 58 granulosa cell tumors of the ovary. Excluded from analysis were 4,444 cases because of lack of histologic confirmation or …


An Ischemic Infarct In Medulla And Cervical Cord, Ezzatollah Shivapour, Gilbert B. Solitare Dec 1978

An Ischemic Infarct In Medulla And Cervical Cord, Ezzatollah Shivapour, Gilbert B. Solitare

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This report documents an unusual case of an occlusion of the anterior spinal artery of the medulla oblongata. The patient presented with involvement of the left accessory nerve and weakness of ipsilateral extremities. The diagnosis of an ischemic infarct in the distribution of the left proximal portion of the anterior spinal artery was made. Bulbar weakness, quadriplegia, and respiratory arrest developed. Postmortem examination, 23 days after onset, revealed an old infarct in the medulla which appeared as a more recent hemorrhagic infarct throughout the cervical cord.

This report describes intense uptake of 201Tl in a patient with histiocytic lymphoma. The activity seen was greater than with 67Ga. Use of 201Tl as an alternative imaging agent is advocated.


Mixed Connective Tissue Disease And Systemic Lupus Erythematosus In One Family, Michael R. Lubetsky, Howard Duncan Dec 1978

Mixed Connective Tissue Disease And Systemic Lupus Erythematosus In One Family, Michael R. Lubetsky, Howard Duncan

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A mother with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) and a daughter with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were simultaneously diagnosed and treated in August, 1977. Multiple cases of SLE occurring in the same family are not rare, but the frequency with which systemic lupus erythematosus and mixed connective tissue disease occurs in the same family is not known, and the reports are few. This report describes these two cases and suggests that mixed connective tissue disease may be part of the spectrum of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Scanning Electron Microscopy Of The Surface Of Human Duodenum In Patients With And Without Duodenal Ulcer Disease, Bernard M. Schuman, Klaus Ritter, John H. L. Watson, Jessica Goodwin Dec 1978

Scanning Electron Microscopy Of The Surface Of Human Duodenum In Patients With And Without Duodenal Ulcer Disease, Bernard M. Schuman, Klaus Ritter, John H. L. Watson, Jessica Goodwin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Endoscopic biopsy specimens of normal human duodenum from patients with duodenal ulcer disease were studied by light microscopy and by scanning electron microscopy. For scanning, the tissue was dried by the critical point-drying technique. SEM criteria for both normal and abnormal duodenal surfaces were determined. SEM evidence for the presence of "tuft cells" similar to those found on the surface of rat duodenum was found in both the normal and abnormal human material. Although other reports have described the favorable effects of carbenoxolone sodium treatment on duodenal ulcer disease, our SEM studies of four patients found that this treatment had …
