Abstract
Insulinomas are pancreatic neoplasms that can be radiologically characterized typically because of their tendency to present intense and early contrast enhancement with a wash-out phenomenon. In this sense, we report an unusual case of a hypovascular solid pancreatic insulinoma confirmed with surgery and pathologic analysis, in a patient with normal serum insulin levels. In the two-phase helical CT, the mass behaved as a hypodense lesion with respect to the surrounding pancreatic parenchyma during the arterial phase and as a hypointense lesion during the dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging. Pathologic examination demonstrated a hypercellular tumor with poor vascularization of intervening stroma which showed prominent amyloid deposits.

Abstract
Granular cell tumor is a rare neoplasm arising within the neurohypophysis. We describe the MR imaging findings in two symptomatic patients. In one patient with history of panhypopituitarism, MR images showed a large sellar and suprasellar mass. The other patient presented with acute loss of vision in her left eye, and MR images showed a suprasellar mass with compression of the optic chiasm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For many years, hypertension has been related to long-term survival of patients and kidney grafts, although the nature of this relationship has not been completely defined. The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of early glomerular filtration rate on post-transplant hypertension and on graft survival. METHODS A total of 432 kidney transplanted patients on cyclosporin therapy, with a functioning graft for at least 1 year, were studied. They were divided into two groups depending on their early creatinine clearance: group A [<60 ml/min (n=270)] and group B [>60 ml/min (n=162)]. RESULTS There were no differences in sex, aetiology of renal failure, number of retransplants, PRA, HLA mismatches and pre-transplant blood pressure. One year after transplantation, blood pressure was higher in group A (systolic BP 148/diastolic BP 86/mean BP 117) than in group B (systolic BP 140/diastolic BP 82/mean BP 111) (P<0.003). We observed a negative correlation between early creatinine clearance and 1-year blood pressure (P<0.01). Five and 10 year graft survival was 60 and 37% in group A and 87 and 69% in group B, respectively (P<0.000). A multivariate Cox analysis showed that 1-year blood pressure (P<0.0029, RR=1.76) and early creatinine clearance (P<0.000, RR=3.27) had a significant influence on graft survival. CONCLUSIONS The 1-year post-transplant blood pressure is a non-immunological risk factor in long-term graft survival. Patients with a lower initial glomerular filtration rate are more susceptible to the development of secondary hypertension and worse graft survival.

Abstract
Optimal outcomes from depression treatment are long-term recovery and, in the case of recurrent depression, prevention of new episodes. However, few data are available concerning the long-term efficacy of antidepressants in prophylactic treatment to prevent recurrences of depression. The efficacy and safety of fluoxetine 20 mg/day was evaluated in reducing the number of depressive episodes and in extending the time free of symptoms in patients with recurrent unipolar major depression. Patients with recurrent unipolar major depression according to DSM-III-R criteria and who responded to 32 weeks of open-label fluoxetine were randomly assigned to receive fluoxetine 20 mg/day (N = 70) or placebo (N = 70) for 48 weeks of double-blind maintenance treatment. Outcome measures were the percentage of recurrences and time to recurrence. Safety assessments included treatment-emergent adverse events, reasons for discontinuation, vital signs, and laboratory measures. Fluoxetine was associated with a statistically significantly smaller percentage of patients who had a recurrence compared with placebo (20% vs. 40%; chi2 analysis, p = 0.010). The symptom-free period was significantly longer for patients treated with fluoxetine versus placebo (295 vs. 192 days; Kaplan-Meier estimates, log-rank test, p = 0.002). Treatments were well tolerated during maintenance treatment. The only statistically significant difference in adverse events between treatment groups was anxiety, which was more frequent in the placebo group (fluoxetine, 12.9% vs. placebo, 30%; chi2 analysis, p = 0.013). Two placebo-treated patients and no fluoxetine-treated patients were withdrawn because of adverse events. In conclusion, fluoxetine at 20 mg/day was effective and well tolerated for the prophylactic treatment of recurrent unipolar major depression.

Abstract
Since the immune response in older recipients has been described as weaker they may have a lower risk of rejection of a transplanted organ. Therefore a less aggressive immunosuppressive regimen should be the best option. The aim of our study was to evaluate the incidence and severity of acute rejection (AR) episodes on graft survival of older patients (> or = 60 years) and to compare them with the younger ones (< 60 years). A total of 439 kidney transplants were performed between 1/94 and 12/99 at our Transplant Unit. Clinical and immunological data, incidence and severity of AR and cause of graft loss were recorded. Patients were divided into two groups, according to age at transplantation [A (< 60, n = 342/77.9%) and B (> or = 60, n = 97/22.1%)]. The percentage of aging recipients and mean age of both donors and recipients increased through the period of study. Although the incidence of acute tubular necrosis was higher in the older group (31% vs 22.8%, pNS), the incidence of AR was also similar (31.6% vs 29.8%, pNS). The number of AR episodes per patient was 0.44 and 0.41 respectively. The incidence of AR was higher in those patients who had ATN (50% vs 19.6%), p < 0.01). The severity of AR was: Banff grade I: A (40.3%)/B (45.7%) pNS; grade II: A (44.1%)/B (48.5%) pNS; grade III: A (15.6%)/B (5.8%) pNS. One-year patient survival was 96%/91% (p < 0.001) and graft survival was 81%/78% (pNS) respectively. The age of recipient does not seem to have a significant influence on the incidence and severity of AR or on graft survival. So immunosuppression should be individualized for each patient.

Abstract
This open, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group study evaluated the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus-based dual and triple therapy regimens. For this 3-month study (with 12-month follow up), 491 adult renal transplant patients were randomized and received either dual therapy (tacrolimus/corticosteroids; 246 patients) or triple therapy (tacrolimus/corticosteroids/azathioprine; 245 patients). Patient survival rates at months 3 and 12 were 99.2 (dual) vs 99.6% (triple) and 97.8 vs 98.7%, respectively. Graft survival rates at months 3 and 12 were 94.1 (dual) vs 95.4% (triple) and 92.8 vs 93.3%, respectively. After 3 months, the incidences of treated acute rejection were 28.8 (dual) and 29.7% (triple); and 7.6 (dual) and 5.4% (triple) for corticosteroid-resistant acute rejections. Between months 4 and 12, three new first rejections were reported, (dual: 2, triple: 1). For leukopenia (1.3 vs 11.7%; P < 0.001) and anemia (14.8 vs 23.0%, P = 0.026), significantly higher incidences were reported in the triple therapy group. The incidence of de novo insulin-dependent diabetes was 5.6 (dual) and 4.0% (triple) at month 3. In terms of efficacy, no difference between the treatment groups was observed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Carbon monoxide poisoning (CO) is a common intoxication. Diagnosis is sometimes difficult since the symptoms may be very varied. We report a case of repeated intoxication which led to several consultations and admission to hospital, since there were headaches and loss of consciousness suggesting basilar migraine. CASE REPORT A 30 year old woman consulted for repeated headaches over the previous six months, normally occurring in the morning, accompanied by vertigo, nausea and vomiting and loss of consciousness on two occasions. Clinical examination and the complementary tests done (laboratory analysis, cerebral MR, ECG, ECG Holter, EEG) were normal. Finally CO intoxication was diagnosed when levels of carboxyhemaglobin of over 30% were found in both the patient and her sister. The cause was a faulty water heater, confirmed on technical inspection. CONCLUSIONS CO intoxication may present as repeated headaches, with or without alteration in consciousness. Finding similar symptoms in other people living in the same place should increase suspicion. In certain case, anamnesis should include details regarding apparatus used for heating, cooking and bathrooms. More carboxyhaemaglobin estimations should be done in Emergency Departments.

Abstract
Surfactant replacement therapy for Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) in premature neonates has been established as an effective treatment, although significant mortality and morbidity remain. In Curaçao, surfactant became available as a therapeutic option in 1994. A retrospective cohort study was performed to describe the results of surfactant treatment in premature newborns with RDS in Curaçao between 1994 and 1998. Of 429 infants admitted to the study hospital in this period, 7.5% (n = 32) developed RDS and were treated with surfactant. Twenty-five per cent (n = 8) of these infants died, most of them in the first year of surfactant treatment. Twenty-eight per cent (n = 9) developed bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), the most frequently observed complication. The highest incidence of BPD (44%) was found in the very low birth weight infants (750-1500 g); all infants with BPD were 27-30 weeks of gestational age. The duration of ventilator dependence was significantly associated with the development of BPD (p < 0.05). No other risk factors for complications during the treatment course could be identified. The mean time between birth and the first surfactant treatment was more than nine hours. In this study, we found low incidence rates of RDS and BPD, and a considerable mortality in surfactant treated newborns. This pilot study shows that surfactant treatment of premature infants is feasible in Curaçao. Earlier administration of surfactant, preferably within 2-3 hours after birth, is expected to lower the risk of death and oxygen dependence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study describes the characteristics of six patients who consulted because of episodes of perceptive alteration of extrapersonal space consisting in an inversion of the situation of objects although without changes in shape or size (inverted metamorphopsia). PATIENTS Six patients (4 males and 2 females) who presented episodes of inverted metamorphopsia were studied: 4 referred right-left inversion (axial plane), 1 upwards-downwards (saggital plane) and 1 inclination of environment (clockwise movement). None had any alteration in the perception of their own bodies during the episodes which lasted from 3 minutes to 1 hour, reporting from 1 to 40 episodes. The most notable antecedents were: traumatism and forced cervical posture (2), arterial hypertension (3), migraine (2), hyperlipemia (2) and protuberantial ischemia (1). RESULTS Intercritical neurologic exploration was normal. MR study showed leukoaraiosis (4), protuberantial paramedian infarctions (1) and was normal in one case of basilar migraine. Study of vestibular function (performed in 4 cases) did not show alterations. Three patients received antiepileptic drugs (1 carbamazepine and 2 gabapentin) with favorable response. CONCLUSIONS Inverted metamorphopsia is a paroxistic phenomenon which transduces a dysfunction of the posterior parietal cortex or its afferences (propioceptive, vestibular, retinian). The causes may be multiple (traumatism, migraine, ischemia). Antiepileptic drugs may have a therapeutic role in the cases with multiple episodes.
