The Spectrum Of B Cell Neoplasia, Michael J. Deegan Mar 1984

The Spectrum Of B Cell Neoplasia, Michael J. Deegan

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Recent progress in our understanding of the immune system and the development of new techniques that permit the precise identification of lymphocytes have permitted a reexamination of lymphoid neoplasms. Most of the non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and lymphocytic leukemias have been characterized as T or B cell neoplasms and have been shown to possess features similar to those expressed by normal lymphoid cells at different stages of maturation. The clinical significance and therapeutic implications of these discoveries are now being explored. This paper presents a concise overview of the differentiation of human B lymphocytes, the surface and cytoplasmic markers that permit their …


Preoperative Chemotherapy And Irradiation In The Treatment Of Soft Tissue Sarcomas Of The Lower Extremities: Preliminary Report Of Experience At Henry Ford Hospital, S. David Nathanson Mar 1984

Preoperative Chemotherapy And Irradiation In The Treatment Of Soft Tissue Sarcomas Of The Lower Extremities: Preliminary Report Of Experience At Henry Ford Hospital, S. David Nathanson

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The development of effective chemotherapy and improved techniques of radiation therapy offer the possibility of managing soft tissue sarcomas so that surgery may need to be less radical than in the past and amputation can be avoided. The low rates of local-regional and systemic recurrence that have resulted from using innovative combinations of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and conservative surgery encouraged us to use preoperative intraarterial adriamycin (doxorubicin) with or without radiation therapy for three cases of soft tissue sarcomas of the lower extremities. The rationale for this therapy is also discussed.

Elevated Serum Transaminase As A Presenting Clue For Precirrhotic Hemochromatosis, Lester P. Kobylak Mar 1984

Elevated Serum Transaminase As A Presenting Clue For Precirrhotic Hemochromatosis, Lester P. Kobylak

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

For patients in whom unexplained elevations in SGOT and SGPT concentrations are found, determination of the serum iron level is recommended to screen for asymptomatic precirrhotic hemochromatosis. Care must be taken to differentiate between hereditary hemochromatosis and secondary iron accumulation due to liver disease.

Polymicrobal Pneumonia In A Corticosteroid-Treated Patient With Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease, John R. Haapaniemi, John Popovich Jr. Mar 1984

Polymicrobal Pneumonia In A Corticosteroid-Treated Patient With Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease, John R. Haapaniemi, John Popovich Jr.

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The immunosuppressive properties of corticosteroids are well established and cause a depression of pulmonary defense mechanisms. We report the case of a patient treated with short-term corticosteroids for an exacerbation of chronic obstructive lung disease who developed a multiple organism pneumonia.


Neurosonology: An Update, Beatrice L. Madrazo, Manuel Dujovny, Juan Fuentes, Michael A. Sandler, Madelyne Galvin Mar 1984

Neurosonology: An Update, Beatrice L. Madrazo, Manuel Dujovny, Juan Fuentes, Michael A. Sandler, Madelyne Galvin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Recent technological advances in diagnostic ultrasound have resulted in the development of high-resolution, portable real-time scanners. In neurological ultrasound, these devices have been particularly useful for detecting intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants. Sonography is now being used during neurosurgical procedures to help in localizing masses for resection and biopsy, as well as in the placement of shunt catheters. The applications of neurosonology and our experience with intraoperative neurosonology are reported in this review.

Allergies Related To Mosquitoes, Repellents, And Insecticides, James T.C. Li, Charles E. Reed Jan 1984

Allergies Related To Mosquitoes, Repellents, And Insecticides, James T.C. Li, Charles E. Reed

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Man's skin response to the mosquito bite exhibits great individual variability. The everyday immediate reaction consists o f a red, or erythematous wheal that lasts only one or two hours. Twenty to 24 hours after the mosquito bite, a delayed reaction of erythema, swelling, and itching may also occur. An individual may exhibit an immediate reaction, delayed reaction, both reactions, or neither reaction. Studies suggest that sensitization to mosquito saliva may be responsible for the inflammatory response. This hypothesis is supported by histologic studies which demonstrate striking infiltration of inflammatory cells at the site of mosquito bites. Severe local reactions …
