Novel Monoclonal Antibody 138H11 Against Human γ-Glutamyl-Transferase: Classification, Histogenesis and Immunoscintigraphy of Renal Tumors
1992
Monoclonal antibody (mAb) 138H11 was produced against human gamma-glutamyl transferase as a molecular probe for renal cancer. Immunohistochemical analyses of mAb 138H11 revealed its reaction with the brush border of normal kidney cortex as well as with clear cell and chromophilic renal carcinomas. In contrast, renal oncocytomas, chromophobic carcinomas, and Duct-Bellini carcinomas were negative for this antibody. These results support a new approach for the histogenesis and classification of renal tumors. Immunoscintigraphy of tumor bearing human kidneys, perfused with 99Tcm-labeled mAb 138H11 after nephrectomy, showed enrichment of 138H11 in three of three clear cell carcinomas that was up…
Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma to Submandibular Gland: A Rare Occurrence
2015
Approximately 20-30% of patients affected by renal cell carcinoma (RCC) present with metastatic disease, and 20% to 40% undergoing nephrectomy for clinically localized disease will develop metastases. A 53 years old female patient developed a left submandibular swelling. Four years before she experienced a left radical nephrectomy for a clear cell tumor and two years later right kidney was removed for a cancer having the same histologic subtype. In that circumstance duodenal pancreasectomy was required for infiltration of pancreatic gland. A sialoadenectomy has been performed and pathology demonstrated an intraglandular neoplasm with characteristics of a clear renal cell carcinoma. Although…
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease: case report of a newborn with rare PKHD1 mutation, rapid renal enlargement and early fatal outcome
2020
Abstract Introduction Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD; MIM#263200) is one of the most frequent pediatric renal cystic diseases, with an incidence of 1:20,000. It is caused by mutations of the PKHD1 gene, on chromosome 6p12. The clinical spectrum is highly variable, ranging from late-onset milder forms to severe perinatal manifestations. The management of newborns with severe pulmonary insufficiency is challenging, and causes of early death are sepsis or respiratory failure. In cases of massive renal enlargement, early bilateral nephrectomy and peritoneal dialysis may reduce infant mortality. However, there is no conclusive data on the role of surgery, and decision-makin…
Retinopathy of prematurity-current diagnosis and management
1993
Despite advances in ophthalmological care of premature infants, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) remains a still unsolved problem for paediatricians as well as ophthalmologists. A survey of the current literature concerning drug therapy and surgical management as related to the different stages of ROP is given. The classification system for ROP according to the International Committee is presented as well as our screening policy in relation to the literature. The effectiveness in preventing severe cases of ROP and the toxicity of vitamin E supplementation in high-risk premature infants is still disputed and no recommendations can be given. Cryotherapy is recommended in symmetric cases of st…

Visibilidad LGTB en tiempos de “gilets jaunes”
2020
La presente investigación se plantea como un acercamiento a distintos espacios urbanos alternativos franceses desde una perspectiva LGTB. La recogida de datos se hizo a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas a distintos responsables de espacios culturales y a jóvenes directores de cine. También se hace servir el análisis de los datos conocidos en base a una observación participante, ya que este trabajo parte de una experiencia personal llevada a cabo en París durante entre 2018 y 2019. En el plazo de dos años hemos detectado un importante cambio de la situación en lo referido a la visibilidad y percepción de la diversidad sexual en el ámbito francés. Y todo ello sin perder de vista el impa…
Änderungen des Elektrolytgehaltes von Erythrozyten und Plasma bei nephrektomierten Ratten
1957
After two-stage nephrectomy in rats the potassium concentration in the red blood corpuscles (RBC) decreases from 10.6 ± 0.3 to 5.5 ± 0.3 mEq per 100 ml of RBC within 48 h. The decrease is accompanied by a much smaller increase in the plasma potassium concentration; the hyperkaliemia in nephrectomized rats is less pronounced than in nephrectomized dogs or anuric humans. Na+ in RBC increases by about 44% after nephrectomy; while there is only a very slight decrease of Na+ in plasma. Plasma chlorides drop from 10.92 ± 0.08 mEq/100 ml of plasma to 6.00 ± 0.81 mEq % within 48 h after nephrectomy. RBC chlorides tend to increase again after an initial drop from 5.22 ± 0.07 to 3.82 ± 0.90 mEq% with…
Transparent Boundary Condition for Oseen-Frank Model. Application for NLC Cells With Patterned Electrodes
2015
In the present work a novel application of Transparent Boundary Conditions (TBC) to nematic liquid crystal cells (NLCC) with planar alignment and a patterned electrode is studied. This device is attracting great interest since it allows soliton steering by optically and externally induced waveguides. We employ the continuum Oseen-Frank theory to find the tilt and twist angle distributions in the cell under the one-constant approximation. The electric field distribution takes into account the whole 2D permittivity tensor for the transverse coordinates. Standard finite difference time domain methods together with an iterative method is applied to find an approximate solution to our coupled pr…
