Although massive pulmonary embolism is a relatively rare postoperative complication in Japan, it can cause a postoperative death and reportedly in the USA, accounts for 15% of all postoperative deaths with the mortality rate of 33%.We experienced a case of pulmonary embolism in a 45 year-old-man, who developed cardiac arrest three days after operation for internal inguinal hernia with McVay procedure.The patient could be successfully treated with heparin and urokinase after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In this paper, the diagnosis, treatments, and prophylactic strategies of pulmonary embolism are described together with a review of the literature.

A CASE OF BILIARY CYSTADENOCARCINOMA

The journal of the Japanese Practical Surgeon Society (1996)

Nobuchika Ozaki Toru Ono Yoshinobu Yamashita Shoji KUSANO Shunji Arikawa

Biliary cystadenocarcinoma is a relatively rare disease, and only 90 cases have been reported in Japan. We report a case of biliary cystadenocarcinoma with a review of the literature. A 52-year-old female was admitted to the hospital because of general fatigue. Abdominal ultrasonography, CT, MRI, arteriography revealed a cystic tumor in the right hepatic lobe suspicious of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and an extended right hepatic resection (right trisegmentectomy) was performed. Intraoperative ultrasonography was very useful to decide the resection line. The cystic tumor (5×7×8cm) consisted of mucinous substance and papillary tumor arising from the cystic wall. Histologically the tumor was diagnosed as biliary cystadenocarcinoma. It is speculated that the tumor might come from malignant change of cystadenoma because of the coexistence of benign cells, strongly atypical cells and the transitional zone of those inthe cystic wall. The patient is doing well and there has been no sign of recurrence as of 4 yers after the surgery.

Effect of Scirpus juncoides Roxb. var. ohwianus on Occurrence of Sorghum Plant Bug, Stenotus rubrovittatus (Matsumura) (Hemiptera: Miridae) and Pecky Rice

Japanese Journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology (2009)

Joji Kashin Noriko Hatanaka Toru Ono Jun Oyama Takashi Kidokoro

Scirpus juncoides Roxb. var. ohwianus is a cyperaceous weed species found in rice fields and has been reported as an alternative substrate plant for the egg deposition of the sorghum plant bug, Stenotus rubrovittatus. The seasonal occurrence of S. rubrovittatus and its damage to rice grains were investigated in S. juncoides-infested and non-S. juncoides-infested rice fields in 2005 and 2006. In S. juncoides-infested rice fields, the immigration of S. rubrovittatus adults started prior to the heading period of rice plants, and nymphs and adults of the next generation were also observed in the field. In non-S. juncoides-infested rice fields, S. rubrovittatus adults immigrated into the fields after the rice plant heading period and very few nymphs were observed throughout the survey period. The percentages of rice grains damaged by S. rubrovittatus in S. juncoides-infested rice fields were higher than those damaged by S. rubrovittatus in non-S. juncoides-infested fields. These results suggest that weed management in rice fields is essential for reducing the extent of plant bug damage to rice grains as well as for managing weeds in the original habitat of plant bugs.

LEIOMYOSARCOMA OF THE TRANSVERSE MESOCOLON -A CASE REPORT-

The journal of the Japanese Practical Surgeon Society (1991)

Masahiro Sakata Toru Ono Yoshinobu Yamashita Toshihiko Sakamoto Toshiharu Arikawa

We experienced a very rare case of leiomyosarcoma of the transverse mesocolon. The case involved a 79-year-old woman complaining of left lower abdominal tumor. The patient underwent operation for a suspected mesenteric tumor after evaluation with barium enema and CT. During operation an elastic hard, spherical tumor was found in the transverse mesocolon. To remove the tumor, left hemicolectomy with resection of a part of jejunum was performed. Reconstruction was done by jejunojejunostomy and colonocolostomy. The resected tumor was 10cm in diameter, 800g by weight, solid and encapsulated with fibrous tissue. Histological diagnosis was leiomyosarcoma of the transverse mesocolon. She has been doing well for 5 months after operation without any symptoms or recurrence. We reported this case with some additional discussion on the related literature.

AN OPERATED CASE OF SOLID AND CYSTIC TUMOR OF THE PANCREAS IN A 17-YEAR-OLD WOMAN

The journal of the Japanese Practical Surgeon Society (1992)

Toru Ono Masayuki Honda Toshihiko Sakamoto Masahiro Sakata Toshiharu Arikawa

A case of solid and cystic tumor of the pancreas in a 17-year-old woman complaining of epigastralgia was experienced.Ultrasonography, CT and MRI revealed a relatively homogeneous and hypovascular mass in the body of the pancreas. Distal pancreatectomy combined with splenectomy was performed. Histological findings were negative for Grimelius staining, positive for α1-antitrypsin and neuron-specific enolase, and no malignant findings like microscopic invasion of the tumor were found. Estrogen and progesteron receptors of the tumor were negative. A review of the literature is also presented here.

Challenges for GHG Reduction in Steel Industry

JAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL (2007)

Toru Ono

我が国鉄鋼業では，1970年代の第一次石油危機を契機に，徹底した省エネルギーに取り組み，世界トップレベルのエネルギー効率を実現してきた。これまで我が国鉄鋼業が取組んできた省エネルギーの手法としては，(1)プロセス革新，(2)プロセス効率改善，(3)副生ガスの最大活用，(4)排熱（エネルギー）回収，(5)廃棄物有効利用に大別される。特に2000年頃より廃棄物の高炉やコークス炉での利用に積極的に取り組んでおり，セクターを越えた取組として注目される。更に将来のプロセス革新のための技術開発にも積極的に取組んでいる。次世代コークス炉（SCOPE―21）は長期の開発期間を経て，現在商業1号機が建設されている。更には，コークス炉ガスからの水素供給や高炉ガス中のCO2を分離回収する技術開発が国家プロジェクトとして取組まれている。日本の優れた省エネ・環境技術は，近年成長著しい中国を始めとした発展途上国に技術供与され，将来のエネルギー・資源への対応のみならず，地球温暖化問題に対しても大きな効果が期待されている。
