First Case

Adenocarcinoma with osteoblastic metastases is classically seen in prostate, breast, and lung primaries. Less common primary sites include thyroid, kidney, and stomach. We present two cases of primary gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma with metastatic osteoblastic activity from two previously unreported sites. The first case represents an esophageal adenocarcinoma arising in a background of intestinal metaplasia that metastasized with osteoblastic activity to the deltoid muscle. The second case demonstrates a Stage IV sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma with osteoblastic metastases to the liver and lymph nodes. The findings indicate that metastases from various gastrointestinal primary adenocarcinomas can have prominent bone formation.

Introduction S-1, a compounding agent of tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil potassium, is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents for colorectal cancer. In this case, following S-1 administration, we observed predominant elevation of serum triglyceride. Case report A 49-year-old man with stage IV transverse colon adenocarcinoma received S-1 + irinotecan + bevacizumab. At the end of the S-1 administration period in every course, his serum triglyceride level was found to be elevated. Finally, it reached grade 4, without any symptoms of acute pancreatitis in the fifth course, and fenofibrate 80 mg once a day was administered. Management & outcome: Interestingly, the elevation spontaneously normalized without any pharmacotherapy 14 days after S-1 withdrawal, and this elevation did not occur when S-1 was not administered. Further, fenofibrate administration attenuated the hypertriglyceridemia to grades 1-3, with no complications. Discussion S-1 administration induced hypertriglyceridemia owing to the elevated serum triglyceride; however, a contrasting result was observed in the S-1 withdrawal period and during the S-1-cessation cycle. Since dietary intake was poorer during the S-1 administration period, it is considered that S-1 might have disturbed lipid metabolism. Further, we know that capecitabine, which is a prodrug of fluorouracil, also induces hypertriglyceridemia. As the end product of these medicines is fluorouracil, the presence of fluorouracil or its metabolizing enzymes, the genetic background of the patient might have affected the results. We have to be aware of the risk of asymptomatic and temporal occurrence of hypertriglyceridemia by S-1 administration for the early detection with appropriate pre-emptive treatment.

Crossed Fused Renal Ectopia

Crossed-fused renal ectopia (CFRE) is a very rare congenital renal malformation. This condition comprises several anatomic anomalies, including unilateral ureteral intersection of the midline, anteriorly-placed renal pelvises, and aberrant renal blood vessels, all of which increase the difficulty of colectomy. This report describes a case of laparoscopic sigmoidectomy with sufficient lymphadenectomy for a patient with sigmoid colon cancer and left-sided L-shaped CFRE. Preoperative computed tomography demonstrated that the origin of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) was free from anomalies and that the tumor did not invade surrounding organs. Therefore, we planned conventional laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy with D3 lymphadenectomy. Division of IMA at its origin and anterior colon resection was successfully performed by careful mobilization of the mesocolon to avoid exposing the retroperitoneal organs. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of laparoscopic colectomy for a patient with CFRE. Sufficient preoperative assessment of anatomic anomalies enabled successful surgery.

First Case

Shigellosis has been considered an infection usually limited to the mucosa and lumen of the large bowel with occasional involvement of regional lymph nodes. This is undoubtedly true in most cases, but well documented instances of bacteremia associated with severe systemic illnessl-5 suggest that significant blood stream invasion can occur. In the majority of cases the bacteremia was due to Shigella fiexneri or Shigella dysenteriae. Three cases of Shigella sonnei septicemia in children6-8 and one case in an adult9 have been reported. Recently, the first case report of meningitis and septicemia due to this organism in a newborn infant was published.10

Free Peritoneal Fluid

A thirteen-year-old, neutered, female Domestic Shorthair (DSH) was referred to the hospital with a suspicion of traumatic uroabdomen. Abdominal ultrasound revealed free peritoneal fluid and cellular infiltration of the urethra, kidneys, abdominal lymph nodes and cecal wall. Analysis of the free fluid confirmed the presence of uroabdomen. Cytology of the infiltrative lesions in the kidneys, urethra and lymph nodes confirmed the presence of multicentric malignant lymphoma. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first case report of lymphomatous infiltration of the urethra in a cat.
