[A case report of a double cancer of the ureter and stomach].

A 63-year-old man complained of hunger epigastralgia. X-ray and endoscopic examination demonstrated Borrmann II type gastric carcinoma. Radical gastrectomy was performed on October 20, 1982. The histological findings revealed moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. In May 1983, right hydronephrosis was recognized by ultrasonography. A papillary tumor was visualized in the right ureter in retrograde pyelography, and percutaneous transrenal urinary tract drainage was performed. Cytological findings revealed class V. Total nephro-uretectomy was performed on June 16, 1983. The histological findings revealed transitional cell carcinoma.

Immunocytochemical demonstration of retinol-binding protein in the lysosomes of the proximal tubules of the human kidney.

The localization of plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) in the human kidney was determined by two immunocytochemical techniques, the PAP method and the protein A-gold technique. By using the affinity purified antibody against RBP obtained from the urine of the patients with cadmium poisoning (Itai-Itai disease), the immunoreactive substances were located by light microscopy in the proximal tubules of the human kidney. By immuno-electron microscopy, the stained organelles were identified as lysosomes in both S1 and S2 segments of the tubules. These data suggested that the reabsorption of low molecular weight plasma proteins like RBP can occur in the two segments. We inferred a similarity between the S1 and S2 segments concerning the reabsorption of RBP.

Hepatocellular carcinoma presenting extrahepatic biliary obstruction.

An autopsy case of hepatocellular carcinoma presenting extrahepatic obstructive jaundice was reported. The patient was a 68-year-old man with 5-year history of chronic liver disease and markedly jaundiced, and died of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Autopsy revealed hepatocellular carcinoma associated with liver cirrhosis and metastatic polypoid growth in the common bile duct and cystic duct which completely obstructed the duct lumen. Obstructive jaundice secondary to complete obstruction of the common bile duct was a rare complication of hepatocellular carcinoma. The other 85 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma presenting extrahepatic biliary obstruction are reviewed.
