Two Cases of Pasteurella Multocida Infection of the Lung that Required Differentiation from Mycobacterial Infections
Case 1 : A 62-year-old woman underwent pre- and post-operative chemotherapy and mastectomy for right breast cancer. After treatment, she experienced a chronic cough. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed exacerbation of bronchiectasis and centrilobular nodules in the right middle lobe and a new appearance of centrilobular nodules in the right lower lobe. As pulmonary tuberculosis was suspected, bronchoscopy was performed and Pasteurella multocida was isolated. Long-term erythromycin therapy proved effective and was maintained,whereas adding a 14-day amoxicillin course to ongoing erythromycin yielded minimal clinical impact.Case 2 : A 66-year-old man underwent Chest CT for follow-up of rheumatoid arthritis and chronic bronchitis,which showed an enlarged cavity in the right upper lobe. Pulmonary mycobacteriosis was suspected. Bronchoscopy was performed and P. multocida was isolated. Finally, amoxicillin treatment was effective.P. multocida infection is a well-known skin and soft tissue infection triggered by trauma caused by pet animals,such as dogs and cats ; however, it is also known to cause respiratory infections. P. multocida pulmonary infections present with centrilobular nodules accompanied by bronchiectasis on imaging in some cases, and may require differentiation from pulmonary mycobacteriosis, such as M. tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections, although this is not well known. In recent years, the incidence of P. multocida has increased,and differentiating between pulmonary mycobacteriosis and P. multocida pulmonary infections is important.Herein, we report two cases of pulmonary infection with P. multocida that required differentiation from pulmonary mycobacteriosis.

Early Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury after Pediatric Cardiac Surgery
Background : Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) following pediatric cardiac surgery is associated with increased postoperative mortality and prolonged pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) stay. Early diagnosis and intervention are therefore essential. We retrospectively evaluated whether CS-AKI could be predicted using perioperative blood parameters, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) data, and postoperative furosemide responsiveness. Methods : This retrospective study included 238 patients admitted to the PICU of Nagano Children’s Hospital between April 2020 and March 2024. Age, body surface area (BSA), preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine (sCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), sodium, potassium, chloride, albumin, postoperative bicarbonate, lactate, serum osmolality, CPB time, and postoperative furosemide responsiveness were compared between AKI and non-AKI groups. Variables showing significant differences were analyzed to identify predictors of AKI onset. Results : Significant differences between the AKI and non-AKI groups were observed in age, BSA, ΔCr (postoperative sCr-preoperative sCr), ΔK, CPB time, time to furosemide administration, and urine volume in response to furosemide. Logistic regression analysis identified CPB time, ΔCr, and furosemide-induced urine output as the most relevant predictors. In contrast, furosemide administration timing, BSA, ΔK, and age were less predictive. Highly relevant data were assigned a score of 2, and others a score of 1. A total score ≥ 6 predicted AKI onset with 90.8 % sensitivity and 90.5 % specificity. Conclusion : Perioperative clinical and laboratory parameters can predict CS-AKI within 24 hours after pediatric cardiac surgery. Integrating these findings with established AKI biomarkers may further enhance prediction accuracy. Shinshu Med J 73 : 399― 406, 2025journal articl
