Bredinin treatment in clinical kidney allografting.

Bredinin, a new nucleoside antibiotic isolated from Eupenicillium brefeldianum, and steroids were used as immunosuppressive agents in 31 renal transplant patients; 17 of them received grafts from living-related donors and 14 from cadavers. The one-year graft survival rates were 100% in renal recipients from living donors and 69.2% in cadaver kidney recipients. There was no serious complication from the use of these immunosuppressive agents.

[Renal autotransplantation for ureteral lesions--the indication and the results of operation].

Renal autotransplantation has been a treatment of choice for renovascular hypertension, renal artery aneurysm, complicated staghorn calculi, ureteral disorders and others. The paper reports 5 cases of extensively damaged ureter and discusses the indication and the results of operation. There were three cases of postoperative extensive ureteral stricture. One patient had postoperative ureteral injury with retroperitoneal abscess. The last one showed renal foreign body calculi with recurrent pyelonephritis after ureterocutaneostomy. The postoperative course of four patients had been uneventful revealing well functioning autotransplanted kidneys without hydronephrosis and infection during the follow-up period of 22 to 42 months. However, the patient with the ureteral injury and retroperitoneal abscess died of bleeding from renal vein anastomosis on the 15th postoperative day, since the renal pedicle showed marked inflammatory change including renal vein wall. Subsequently, autotransplantation is contraindicated in the cases with marked inflammation in the renal pedicle. In cases of various other ureteral lesions including long distance ureteral stricture, this procedure is recommended when neither the end to side ureteral anastomosis, Boari's bladder flap operation nor bladder hitch operation is feasible.

[Effect of Moristerol (anti-cholesterolemic agent) on benign prostatic hypertrophy].

Moristerol was orally administered in 20 cases of benign prostatic hypertrophy. One capsule of Moristerol contained 200 mg of soysterol . In all the cases, 9 capsules of Moristerol were given per day in three divided doses for 6 weeks. Clinical improvement was observed in 11 of the 20 cases (55%). It consisted mainly of subjective complaints such as improvement of dysuria, narrow and weak urinary stream and feeling of incomplete voiding. As objective findings, a statistically significant decrease of residual urine volume was noted after treatment, although shrinkage of the enlarged prostate was not clear upon palpation or roentgenography. In addition to the improvement of symptoms, serum lipid peroxide which might be considered to be a provocative cause of benign prostatic hypertrophy, was also significantly decreased by Moristerol administration. No marked side effects were seen in this study.

[Cefotaxime concentrations in the blood and kidney].

Serum and renal levels of cefotaxime (CTX) were studied. Biological half-life time values in serum of rat following 100 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection were 27.58 minutes by bioassay and 25.02 minutes by high performance liquid chromatography, and that in kidney was 27.79 minutes by bioassay. CTX attained high levels in kidney of both human and rat. The concentration was higher in the cortex than that in the medulla. The activity could not be detected in the fraction of brush border, mitochondria and lysosome. This finding was thought to be a favorable characteristic in conjunction with the gradual decrease in the kidney tissue parallel to serum level.

Multimodal treatment of advanced adult Wilms tumor.

We report 2 cases of advanced adult Wilms tumor that were treated with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. The first patient had relapse of a Wilms tumor in the liver 2 years after nephrectomy. Combination chemotherapy, consisting of actinomycin D and vincristine, radiation therapy and final resection of the liver metastasis were successful and the patient has been free of disease for 4 years. The second patient had undergone transcatheter embolization of the renal artery elsewhere with the tentative diagnosis of an inoperable renal cell carcinoma metastatic to both lungs. A left renal tumor, weighing 4,500 gm., and a tumor thrombus in the vena cava extending to the right atrium were removed, and histologically diagnosed as a Wilms tumor. Subsequent chemotherapy and radiotherapy resulted in complete disappearance of the lung metastases. We conclude that multimodal treatment, namely a well timed combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, could potentially eradicate the disease even at an advanced stage.

[Experience with cefmetazole in the urological fields].

Recently, a new antibiotic of cephamycins, cefmetazole (CMZ) has been developed. In our clinic, CMZ was used to examine its clinical effect and adverse reactions, and the results were herein reported. The CMZ was administered to 8 patients for the prevention of postoperative infections, 7 with genitourinary infections and 1 with maxillitis complicated with uremia. For these patients, a daily dose of 1 to 6 g of CMZ was intravenously given for a period of 4 to 12 days. Among the 8 patients who received CMZ for the prevention of postoperative infections, there were 1 case with urinary tract infection, 1 with wound infection and 2 with fever of over 38 degrees C, but they had no serious infections. In the clinical observations on 3 cases with pyelonephritis, the CMZ showed marked effectiveness in 2 cases and effectiveness in 1 case. It must be noted that CMZ was proved to be markedly effective for pyelonephritis caused by Serratia marcescens. In the cases with acute epididymitis and prostatitis, a good effect of CMZ was obtained. Similarly in the case with maxillitis complicated with uremia, the maxillitis was improved by the effect of CMZ and hemodialysis. No cases with hepatic or renal dysfunction were observed after using CMZ. It is concluded that satisfactory effect of CMZ was obtained clinically.
