Urinary carcinoembryonic like antigen levels in patients with urinary tract reconstruction using bowels.

Urine CEA levels of sixty six cystectomy patients with urinary tract reconstruction using the small or large bowel was evaluated. Most of them had abnormally high CEA levels regardless of bladder tumor recurrence. Ileal conduit cases showed higher CEA levels than those of colocystoplasty cases. We think this is probably due to difference of mucosal surface areas rather than of original location of the resected specimens, for the small bowel contains much wider mucosal surface in a length unit.

Spontaneous disappearance of gastric polyps: report of four cases.

During follow-up radiologic observations of 88 subjects with benign gastric polyps, four rare cases were encountered. In two of these, the polyps had become detached; in the other two, they decreased in size. One of the latter eventually disappeared. Possible causes, though not yet established, are considered. These four cases are discussed in light of earlier reports in the literature.

Coexistence of peculiar pemphigus, myasthenia gravis and malignant thymoma.

An unusual vesculobullous disease and myasthenia gravis occurred concurrently with a malignant thymoma in a Japanese male. The bullous dermatosis had combined clinical and histological features of both dermatitis herpetiformis and pemphigus. Serum showed striated muscle antibodies and intercellular epithelial autoantibodies; the latter had been demonstrated even prior to the development of the skin lesions. Thus, immunologically, this dermatosis was confirmed to be a variety of pemphigus.
