Successful pregnancy in a patient undergoing chronic hemodialysis.

A 29-year-old woman who had been undergoing regular hemodialysis for 4 years became pregnant, and a male infant weighing 1320 g was delivered by cesarean section. The infant has grown uneventfully and shows no abnormalities at present. This is the first case in Japan and the eighth reported case to date (1979) in which a patient undergoing chronic hemodialysis became pregnant and was delivered of a live infant.

Handy type haemofiltration-plasma exchange apparatus.

A simple, compact and light weight design for a machine to perform plasma exchange or haemofiltration at a desired place is required. Based on these considerations, we have designed and fabricated a portable machine having a unique volume balancing mechanism and evaluated the in vitro and in vivo fluid balancing performances. We have obtained fully acceptable results during the evaluations and have performed clinical tests with favourable results.

Chorio-meningo-encephalitis due to Listeria monocytogenes after renal transplantation.

A 35-year-old man, who underwent renal transplantation, died of meningo-encephalitis with symptoms of meningitis for only 8 days. The autopsy revealed marked chorio-meningo-encephalitis caused by Listeria monocytogenes. This report on listeriosis in renal transplant patients is the second in our country, where adult cases of listeriosis are rare. Recent knowledge about listeriosis in renal transplants is reviewed and discussed.
