Fifty eight cases of SBP for the latest 20 years in Japan were reviewed. General symptoms due to SBP were ascites (100%), abdominal pain (93%), jaundice (86%), fever (57%) and rebound tenderness (55%), including male/female ratio of 2.6:1. Eighty eight per cent of SBP patients had cirrhosis. Although there was no difference between bacterial spieces causing SBP in the first ten years and latter ten years, survival of short period within 2 weeks was improved from 26.7% to 71.4%. However, long survival of 6 months was very poor yet. In patients with decompensated liver function, prophylactic and early treatment of SBP were recommended for improvement of long survival in SBP patients.

Erucism is a skin reaction to envenomation from certain poisonous caterpillar bristles. In Brazil, most reports of erucism provoked by Lonomia caterpillars are from the southern region. Most manifestations of erucism are local and include burning pain, itching, local hyperthermia and, rarely, blisters (benign symptoms with spontaneous regression in a few hours). General symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, headache, fever, myalgia, abdominal pain and conjunctivitis may also occur. Uncommon symptoms include arthritis, coagulation disorders (manifested as bruising and bleeding), intracerebral hemorrhage and acute renal failure, which comprise serious complications. The present study reports the case of 60-year-old patient from Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil, who came into contact with a caterpillar and developed, a few days later, chronic renal disease.
