Abstract
We report our experience with endovascular embolization using liquid coils. Twenty-two transarterial embolization procedures were performed with these coils in 20 patients with cerebrospinal vascular or neoplastic lesions. The coils were delivered into the target vessels under fluoroscopic monitoring through a microcatheter by manual injection and flushing with saline. Subsequent surgical resections of embolized lesions were performed in 14 cases, and radiosurgery for two. Complete obliteration of the target vessels were accomplished in all cases without complications. Passage through the microcatheter and delivery of the coil was smooth. Proximal protrusion of the coil occurred during the procedure, and a combination of other embolic materials was necessary to completely occlude large vessels in 9 cases. The embolized lesions were easily resected in the following neurosurgery. Liquid coils were safe and effective as an embolic material in use prior to surgery or radiosurgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we demonstrated our new device for open donor liver surgery with left-sided heptectomy by use of the real-time moving windows (RTMW) method with 8-cm transverse skin incision for living donors from the viewpoints of cosmetic, economic, and safety procedures. METHODS After the upper abdominal 8-cm transverse skin incision was made, the subcutaneous area was exfoliated and the reverse T-shaped-abdominal incision was made, as in open surgery. After that, the 2 Kent hooks for the upper region and the 2 surgical arms for the lower region were placed. The operative fields of hepatic vein, hepatic hilus, and common hepatic artery were explored, respectively, by use of the RTMW method with the use of the 4 surgical hooks. Hepatic parenchymal dissection was carried out with the use of CUSA and laparosonic coagulating shears. Manipulations of 3 hepatic vessels and the hepatic duct were done by the usual procedure of open surgery. RESULTS This operative procedure could be performed without laparoscopic techniques. The operative time was 7 hours, without blood transfusion. The operative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 11. CONCLUSIONS Our RTMW method for donor left-sided hepatectomy is considered to be a useful operative procedure from the viewpoints of donor safety, cosmetic advantage, and cost performance.

Abstract
OBJECT Pancreas transplantation has the highest surgical complication rate of all routinely performed organ transplantation procedures. The complications are not only caused by the pancreas itself but also occur due to issues with the transplant recipient. We report the case of a patient who experienced massive gastrointestinal bleeding after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK), which was stopped successfully using somatostatin analog. PATIENTS AND METHODS The patient was a 45-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus type 1 who underwent SPK with enteric drainage. She had melena 5 days after SPK. RESULTS At first, we suspected that the melena was caused by the transplanted duodenum because of rejection and ischemic changes. The patient experienced severe bleeding 9 days after SPK. We quickly performed open surgery and inserted an endoscope from the recipient's ileum to investigate the transplanted duodenum. However, no bleeding source was found, including in the transplanted duodenum and the recipient's ileum end. We determined that the bleeding source was the recipient's ascending colon. We attempted to perform endovascular treatment but could not detect the source of the bleeding; therefore, we used somatostatin analog to let the blood vessels shrink and reduce pancreatic output. Thereafter, the function of the transplanted pancreas and kidney gradually recovered, and the recipient was discharged 154 days after SPK. CONCLUSION Gastrointestinal bleeding is a lethal complication and has several different causes, such as mucosal rejection, ischemic changes, and exocrine output of the pancreas graft. Somatostatin analog is one of the most acceptable treatments for patients who have gastrointestinal bleeding after SPK.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to establish a magnetic resonance imaging-based classification system for canine hyperadrenocorticism according to pituitary gland extension, determine indications for trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomy, and clarify the prognosis for each disease grade. METHODS A 5-point classification system (Grades 1 to 5) was developed based on tumour extension in dorsal and cranio-caudal directions. Cases were then classified as Type A: no arterial circle of Willis or cavernous sinus involvement and Type B: cases in which these blood vessels were involved. RESULTS Medical records and magnetic resonance imaging data of 37 cases with hyperadrenocorticism were reviewed. Thirty-three cases underwent surgery; 4 Grade 5 cases did not have appropriate indications for surgery, and other therapies were used. Complete resection was achieved for 3, 3, 22 and 1 Grade 1A, 2A, 3A and 3B cases, respectively. Resection was incomplete in 1, 1 and 2 Grade 3A, 3B and 4B cases, respectively. Remission was achieved in 29 cases. Recurrence occurred in 4 cases, all of which were classified as Grade 3. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Dogs with Type A, Grade 1 to 3 hyperadrenocorticism had a good prognosis following trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomy. Grade 3B, 4 and 5 cases may not be suitable for this surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The barrier function of long junctional epithelium is thought to be important after periodontal initial therapy and periodontal surgery. Although the difference between long junctional epithelium and normal junctional epithelium regarding their resistance to destruction of periodontal tissue has been investigated, the mechanism still remains unclear. Using our rat experimental periodontitis model in which loss of attachment and resorption of alveolar bone is induced by the formation of immune complexes, we investigated the resistance of periodontal tissue containing long junctional epithelium and normal junctional epithelium to destruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS Rats were divided into four groups. In the immunized long junctional epithelium (I-LJE) group, rats were immunized with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and curettage and root planing procedures were performed on the palatal gingiva of the maxillary first molars to obtain reattachment by long junctional epithelium. In the immunized normal junctional epithelium (I-JE) group, rats were immunized without curettage and root planing procedures. In the nonimmunized long junctional epithelium (nI-LJE) group, rats were not immunized but curettage and root-planing procedures were performed. In the control group, neither immunization nor curettage and root-planing was performed. In all rats, periodontal inflammation was induced by topical application of LPS into the palatal gingival sulcus of maxillary first molars. The rats were killed at baseline and after the third and fifth applications of LPS. Attachment loss and the number of inflammatory cells and osteoclasts in the four groups were compared histopathologically and histometrically. RESULTS After the third application of LPS in the I-LJE group, attachment loss showed a greater increase than in control and nI-LJE groups, and inflammatory cell infiltration and osteoclasts were increased more than in the other groups. After the fifth application of LPS, attachment loss was greater and there was a higher degree of inflammatory cell infiltration in nI-LJE and I-LJE groups than in control and I-JE groups. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the destruction of periodontal tissue is increased in tissue containing long junctional epithelium compared with normal junctional epithelium and that the immunized condition accelerates the destruction by forming immune complexes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE A diagnosis of periodontitis progression is presently limited to clinical parameters such as attachment loss and radiographic imaging. The aim of this multicenter study was to monitor disease progression in patients with chronic periodontitis during a 24-mo follow-up program and to evaluate the amount of bacteria in saliva and corresponding IgG titers in serum for determining the diagnostic usefulness of each in indicating disease progression and stability. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 163 patients with chronic periodontitis who received trimonthly follow-up care were observed for 24 mo. The clinical parameters and salivary content of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans were assessed using the modified Invader PLUS assay, and the corresponding serum IgG titers were measured using ELISA. The changes through 24 mo were analyzed using cut-off values calculated for each factor. One-way ANOVA or Fisher's exact test was used to perform between-group comparison for the data collected. Diagnostic values were calculated using Fisher's exact test. RESULTS Of the 124 individuals who completed the 24-mo monitoring phase, 62 exhibited periodontitis progression, whereas 62 demonstrated stable disease. Seven patients withdrew because of acute periodontal abscess. The ratio of P. gingivalis to total bacteria and the combination of P. gingivalis counts and IgG titers against P. gingivalis were significantly related to the progression of periodontitis. The combination of P. gingivalis ratio and P. gingivalis IgG titers was significantly associated with the progression of periodontitis (p = 0.001, sensitivity = 0.339, specificity = 0.790). CONCLUSIONS It is suggested that the combination of P. gingivalis ratio in saliva and serum IgG titers against P. gingivalis may be associated with the progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Antibiotic resistance has become a global public health issue. Most antibiotics are prescribed in the community, although there is less stewardship of such agents in the community compared to secondary and tertiary care. Few studies have attempted to examine the prescribing practices in General Practice and its impact on antibiotic resistance and, therefore, a study was performed in order to compare antibiotic susceptibilities of commensal viridans group streptococci (VGS) obtained from patient cohorts in General Practices (GP), who were high and low prescribers of oral antibiotics. METHOD Sixty-five patients (<1 month-81 years; 77% female: 23% male) were enrolled onto the study, and viridans group streptococci (n = 5/patient) were collected from each patient's nasal passages and oropharynx region and tested for antibiotic susceptibility against (i) tetracyclines (doxycycline); (ii) macrolides (erythromycin); (iii) β-lactams (penicillin G); and (iv) fluoroquinolones (ofloxacin & levofloxacin). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION There were no significant differences in MICs between high and low GP prescribers with doxycycline (P = 0·094), erythromycin (P = 0·122), ofloxacin (P = 0·193) and levofloxacin (P = 0·058). However, there was a significant difference between high and low GP practices with regard to penicillin G (P = 0·031). This finding is important as the β-lactams are the most commonly prescribed oral antibiotic in the community. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that high prescribing practices may lead to an altered (higher) level of resistance to these agents in the commensal VGS population, which may be important as reservoirs of antibiotic resistance determinants in subsequent horizontal gene transfer events, particularly with newly colonizing pathogens, including pneumococci. Primary care physicians should be aware that increased prescribing of antibiotics may led to increased level of penicillin resistance.

Abstract
469 Background: Laparoscopic liver resection has recently become more common. However, it is difficult to resect laparoscopically the liver tumor located in the posterosuperior segments (IVa, VII and VIII), especillay for patients with liver cirrhosis. Compared to laparoscopy, gaining access to tumors in the dome of the liver may be more easily obtained via thoracoscopy.Therefore, we describe the technique and outcome of a video-assisted thoracoscopic transdiaphragmatic liver resection in patients with a malignant tumor of the liver. Methods: Five female patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic transdiaphragmatic partial hepatectomy. The tumors were located at segment VIII in 4 patients and segment VII in 1. Three patients were preoparatively diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma, and two were metastatic tumor of the colorectal cancer. Underlying cirrhosis was staged as Child-Pugh B in 2 cases and Child-Pugh A in 1. Thoracoscopic transdiaphragmatic partial hepatic resection was chosen due to the tumor’s location and impaired liver function. The patient was placed in an oblique position with her left side on the table. The ports were placed around the tumor at three levels, the ninth (3cm mini-thoracotomy), the seventh (two ports, 5mm and 12mm), and the fifth (12mm) intercostals spaces. Using thoracoscopic ultrasonography, the portion of the diaphragm located just above the tumor was cut and opened using electric cautery. The partial liver resection was performed using coagulating shears and electric cautery. Results: No conversion to laparotomy occurred. The median blood loss was 200 g (20-500g), and median operating time was 220 min (135-347 min). There were no perioperative deaths, and no patients underwent reoperation. Conclusions: Thoracoscopic hepatic resection can be safely performed in patients with subdiaphragmatic tumors, especially with cirrhosis or previous upper abdominal surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Extensive skin wrinkling during facial expressions is one of the considerable problems in aesthetic dermatology. Although a few in silico studies have been performed with the aim of revealing the mechanism of a wrinkled appearance, there have been few studies that take into account the influence of skin roughness (i.e. microrelief), which exists on human skin in vivo. In this study, finite element simulations were performed using multilayer skin models with microrelief to investigate how extensive wrinkling appears on human skin, especially focusing on the role of surface roughness in the wrinkling mechanism. METHODS Linear and post-buckling analyses were performed on soft elastic laminate models using the finite element method. A simplified multilayer model of human skin was employed to examine the contribution of skin's multilayer structure to the large-wrinkle mechanism. Microrelief was included in the model to assess its effect on the mechanism. RESULTS A large wrinkle was observed as dermal buckling following a number of buckling events on the stratum corneum. The existence of microrelief had an effect on the suppression of dermal buckling. CONCLUSION Skin's multilayer structure should play a major role in the appearance of large wrinkles on human skin via its post-buckling behavior. This study suggested that fine microrelief on the skin surface hampers large wrinkles. These findings should be valuable for the development of cosmetic or medical treatments to prevent unfavorable skin deformations.
