Introduction: Gastric cancer is one of the highly malignant gastrointestinal cancers and the third leading cause of cancer death. In the last decade, early gastric cancer (EGC) has been reported by using narrow-band imaging (NBI) magnifying endoscopy. Advances in endoscopic techniques, such as endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), have enabled the en bloc resection of these EGC. Although ESD is performed for early gastric cancer, there are still many difficult problems in technique of this procedure. The difficulty of gastric ESD depends on the size and location of a tumor, presence of severe submucosal fibrosis, presence of ulceration... We report a case of our successful ESD by using Clutch cutter and IT knife 2 in treatment of EGC with severe submucosal fibrosis. Case presentation: A 62-year-old man felt an epigastric discomfort two months ago. The narrow-band imaging (NBI) magnifying endoscopy revealed a suspected early gastric cancer type 0 - IIa + IIc (Japanese classification of early gastrointestinal cancers) at the incisura angularis, the size of this lesion was 15 mm in diameter, and pathological result of endoscopic biopsy was a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. ESD was performed and we found there was severe submucosal fibrosis which was dissected safer and faster by using Clutch cutter and IT knife 2. There were no complications such as severe bleeding and perforation. The size of resected specimen was 60 x 35 mm and the time of procedure was 150 minutes. After ESD, the pathological result was a well differentiated adenocarcinoma, pT1a, UL(-), LY(-), V(-), no cancer cell in vertical and horizontal margins. The healing time of ESD-induced ulcer was 5 weeks without local recurrence. Conclusion: Through this case, we aim to emphasize the importance of using Clutch cutter and IT knife 2 as a modified technique which makes ESD a safe procedure in treatment of EGC with severe submucosal fibrosis.

Furosemide (40 μg/min) was perfused directly into the renal artery of dogs in whom the femoral blood pressure was reduced (80 mm Hg) by aortic clamping above the renal arteries. This maneuver, which does not influence the intrarenal blood flow distribution, produced significant decreases of the urine volume, natriuresis, Ccreat, and CPAH, and prevented the marked diuresis normally produced by furosemide. Therefore the chances that systemic physiological changes occurred, secondary to large fluid movements, were minimized. In those conditions, however, furosemide produced a significant increase of the urine output and sodium excretion in the experimental kidney whereas Ccreat and CPAH were not affected. The outer cortical blood flow rate (ml/100 g-min) was modified neither by aortic constriction (562 ± 68 versus 569 ± 83) nor by the subsequent administration of furosemide (424 ± 70). The blood flow rate of the outer medulla in these three conditions remained unchanged (147 ± 52 versus 171 ± 44 versus 159 ± 54). The initial distribution of the radioactivity in each compartment remained comparable in the three conditions. In parallel with the results from the krypton-85 disappearance curves, the autoradiograms, silicone rubber casts, and EPAH did not suggest any change in the renal blood flow distribution secondary to furosemide administration.

Data collected during the evaluation of a series of hemodialysers were analysed to see the effect of hematocrit on the clearance of urea and creatinine. All evaluations were performed on patients with a range of hematocrits with a mean close to 20%. The urea clearance of those in the upper half of the distribution curve (mean hematocrit 29.4%) was not significantly different from that of patients in the lower half of the distribution curve (mean hematocrit 16.9%) whether the clearance was studied at high or low blood flow rates and with hollow fibre or flat plate disposable hemodialysers. Likewise, there was no correlation between hematocrit and urea clearance by regression analysis. In contrast, the clearance of creatinine was affected by hematocrit being greater at lower hematocrit values. This difference was independent of blood flow rate and dialyser type and was confirmed by regression analysis.
