Therapeutic Administration

SummaryThe clinical course and the haematologic events in a patient suffering from metastatic thyroid cancer after administration of 806 mCi of 131I are described. A serious bone marrow depression developed and was treated successfully. The haematological changes during the early and late phases of the radiation injury were studied in detail and compared with those after external irradiation. The haematological events after internal irradiation with 131I are characterised by initial neutrophilic leukocytosis, protracted lymphopenia, slowly developing anaemia reaching lowest values about 3 months after administration, erythroid hyperplasia in the bone marrow after recovery from bone marrow depression and prominent cytological features of the bone marrow, especially pronounced erythropoietic polyploidy.

Abstract Objective Ventilation of the middle ear and mastoid air cells is believed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic ear disease. Traditionally, ventilation is assessed by computed tomography. However, this exposes patients to cumulative radiation injury. In cases with a perforation in the tympanic membrane, tympanometry potentially presents a non-invasive alternative to measure the ventilated middle-ear and mastoid air cell volume. This study hypothesised that total tympanometry volume correlates with ventilated middle-ear and mastoid air cell volume. Method Total tympanometry volume was compared with ventilated middle-ear and mastoid air cell volume on computed tomography scans in 20 tympanic membrane perforations. Results There was a high correlation between tympanometry and computed tomography volumes (r = 0.78; p < 0.001). A tympanometry volume more than 2 ml predicted good ventilation on computed tomography. Conclusion These results may help reduce the need for pre-operative computed tomography in uncomplicated cases with tympanic membrane perforations.
