Thirty hospitalized patients (22 men and eight women), aged between 15 and 41 years (mean = 25.4 years), with severe proven typhoid sepsis were treated with pefloxacin at daily dose of 1200 mg, divided in three doses, intravenously for the first five days and orally for the following ten days of treatment. All patients completely recovered from infection and pathogens were eradicated after 30 days of follow-up. In none of the patients was a relapse registered during the follow-up or enteric carrier state after disease. Pefloxacin therapy was well tolerated by all patients: in five patients a mild and transient epigastric pain and in one patient a mild and transient nausea were registered. Pefloxacin is a safe and effective agent for therapy of typhoid fever.

A case reported herein is a patient with ruptured minute pancreaticodudenal arterial aneurysms that proved difficult to distinguish from malignant tumors of the pancreas or duodenum. A 61-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of abdominal fullness, epigastralgia, nausea, and vomiting. Pre-operative examinations demonstrated duodenal stenosis, mass formation in the head of the pancreas, and three tiny aneurysms in the branches of the gastroduodenal artery. At surgery, an orange-sized mass was revealed in the head of the pancreas, which had adhered fibrously to the duodenum, inferior vena cava, and transverse mesocolon. Thus, pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed with a tentative diagnosis of a malignant tumor of the pancreas or duodenum. Subsequent histopathologic examinations, however, demonstrated the presence of a hematoma between the pancreas and duodenum, extensive fibrosis around the hematoma and dissecting aneurysms in the branches of the pancreaticoduodenal artery. In this case, it was considered that fibrosis around the ruptured aneurysms extending to the surrounding organs made it difficult to distinguish the aneurysms from a malignant tumor.

We describe a case of a 50 year old woman with a secondary involvement of the stomach from breast carcinoma. She complained of nausea, vomiting and epigastric pain resistant to gastroprotective drugs. Initially symptoms were attributed to the side effects of chemotherapeutic agents. Correct diagnosis led to effective treatment of gastrointestinal symptoms with consequent improvement in her quality of life.

Lomefloxacin (NY-198), a new antimicrobial quinolone, was examined for its antimicrobial activities against clinical isolates and clinical efficacies to biliary tract infections. The following results were obtained. 1. The MICs of NY-198 against Escherichia coli (20 strains) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (20 strains) were good and similar to those of ofloxacin (OFLX) or norfloxacin (NFLX). The MICs of NY-198 against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20 strains) were inferior by 1 dilution factor to OFLX or NFLX, and against Enterococcus faecalis (10 strains), they were similar to NFLX and slightly inferior to OFLX. 2. NY-198 was administered to 8 patients with biliary tract infections (acute cholecystitis 7 cases, chronic cholangitis 1 case). The results were good in 7 and unevaluable in 1 case because the duration of the therapy was too short. 3. As for side effects, mild urticaria was observed in 1 case and epigastralgia with nausea in another. As for abnormal laboratory test values slight elevations of GOT and GPT were recognized in 1 case. 4. In conclusion, we consider NY-198 is a useful oral drug for the treatment of biliary tract infections.

Crohn's disease can involve any portion of the digestive tract, but isolated gastric Crohn's disease is a rare entity. In the few previously reported cases, the inflammatory disorder has involved only a portion of the stomach. Herein we describe a patient with diffuse involvement of the entire stomach and an associated gastrosplenic fistula but no evidence of involvement elsewhere in the gastrointestinal tract. Usually, a patient with isolated Crohn's disease of the stomach will have the clinical symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and epigastric pain and radiographic evidence of a small contracted stomach (or, occasionally, a huge dilated stomach). Because the condition may suggest the presence of a malignant lesion and biopsy specimens often reveal nonspecific inflammation, surgical resection is usually necessary for diagnosis of isolated Crohn's disease of the stomach.

Four patients have been identified as experiencing a form of sialorrhea not previously described in the dental literature. The pattern of salivation is atypical in that it is excessive and is episodic in nature, with paroxysms of secretion occurring 1 to 2 times per week and lasting for 2 to 5 minutes. The episodes are preceded by a prodrome consisting of nausea or epigastric pain, but without progression to vomiting. Because of the unknown cause and spontaneous occurrence, the syndrome is being called idiopathic paroxysmal sialorrhea (IPS).

A 67-year-old man was admitted in October 1987 with complaints of nausea, headache, dizziness and speech disturbance. Hematological examination showed pancytopenia. Bone marrow aspiration failed with a dry tap. A month later, the second aspiration showed hypocellular marrow containing 18.2% of lymphoma cells. Physical examination showed splenomegaly and lymph node swelling. Polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia was not observed. A lymph node biopsy exhibited typical histology of immunoblastic lymphadenopathy (IBL)-like T cell lymphoma. Surface marker CD3 and CD4 positive cells were dominant. The patient complained of epigastric pain and occult blood was positive in stool. Gastrofiberscopic examination disclosed well differentiated adenocarcinoma in situ located on a polyp, and polypectomy was performed. Lymphoma was treated with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vinblastine and prednisolone. Splenomegaly and lymph node swelling were reduced in size but the effect was temporary. Thereafter the patient has been treated with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vindesine, prednisolone and etoposide every 3 weeks. This is our first case report of IBL-like T cell lymphoma associated with early gastric cancer.

A twenty-seven-year-old 25 weeks gestation female was admitted with recurrent symptoms of nausea, vomiting and epigastric pain. She was diagnosed as left diaphragmatic hernia by chest X-ray film, CT and esophago-gastrography. During operation, a left central tendon defect was observed, and was 3.5 cm in diameter. The margin of the defect was smooth and round. It was associated with diaphragmatic eventration. The small intestine and transverse colon were herniated into the left thoracic cavity. The central tendon defect was closed with direct mattress sutures and was reinforced by overlap-technique of the diaphragm. To our knowledge, this type of defect has not been described previously in Japan. Diaphragmatic hernia in pregnancy is very rare, and presents abdominal pain, vomiting and dyspnea. Usually the diagnosis is achieved by chest X-ray film. However, esophago-gastrography should be added, if the diagnosis could not be confirmed by chest X-ray film. Conservative management is reported to bring high mortality, therefore, prompt surgical repair is advisable.

A case of extrahepatically growing hepatocellular carcinoma is reported, and the Japanese literature is reviewed. A 42-year-old man was admitted to our hospital on December 27, 1985 complaining of epigastralgia and nausea. Ultrasonography and computerized tomography showed a large tumor in the right hepatic lobe. This Was removed surgically and examined histologically.

Analysis of clinical data obtained in a double-blind randomized study, which compared liquid antacid (neutralizing capacity 120 mmol per day) with 1 g cimetidine in the treatment of 125 patients with gastric ulcer, revealed that, before starting treatment, 71% of the patients complained of epigastric pain, approximately 50% of bloating, and approximately 30% of nausea, heartburn, constipation or vomiting. Epigastric pain before treatment was significantly more frequent in patients with large ulcers (P less than 0.05) and in patients with ulcers unhealed after 4 weeks of therapy (P less than 0.05). This finding was the result of a highly significant correlation between diurnal epigastric pain and ulcer size and delayed healing (P less than 0.005). Nocturnal pain did not correlate with prognosis. In contrast to this correlation between pain before therapy and healing, the disappearance of epigastric pain with therapy did not signify ulcer healing. Only 14 (38%) of the 37 patients with healed ulcer were free from pain after the 4 weeks of therapy, whereas 25 (49%) of the 52 patients with persistent ulcers had no pain at this time. Placebo pain tablets relieved ulcer pain effectively in more than 85% of the patients, irrespective of whether the ulcer was healing or not. The other symptoms (bloating, nausea, heartburn, constipation or vomiting) were also alleviated by 4 weeks of therapy but no correlation was found with ulcer size or prognosis. The loss of the prognostic significance of ulcer pain is probably due to a complex interaction of the trial schedule on the patient's level of consciousness.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
