Sympus monopus accompanied by nephroblastoma--A case report.

An autopsy case of sirenomelia accompanied by nephroblastoma has been reported. In this case, there were many complicating anomalies such as left renal agenesis, absence of external genital organs, imperforate anus, mass of redundant skin over sacral region, two umbilical vessels, absence of great omentum and patent ductus arteriosus. We considered this malformation as sympus monopus.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE): isolation of a defective variant of measles virus from brain obtained at autopsy.

A cytopathic agent causing formation of syncytial giant cells was isolated by co-cultivation of human embryonic lung cells with brain cells obtained at autopsy from a patient with subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Measles specific intracellular immunofluorescence was detected in syncytial giant cells developed by the agent. Paramyxovirus-like nucleocapsids were observed by electron microscopy in nuclei of the syncytial giant cells. Measles specific immunofluorescence was also detected on the surface of unfixed syncytial giant cells. However, the synycytial giant cells did not produce either virions or hemogglutinin, and did not show hemadsorption of African green monkey red cells. Hence, the newly isolated agent seems to be a defective variant of measles virus, and was designated as the SSPE-"BIKEN" strain.
