A Case of Persistent Mullerian Duct Syndrome Diagnosed by Laparoscopic Examination for Impalpable Testis
Persistent mullerian duct syndrome describes a group of patients with a 46 XY karyotype and normal male external genitalia, but internal mullerian structures. A 7-month-old boy presented with a left inguinal hernia, a left undescended testis and a right impalpable testis. Inguinal herniorrhaphy was performed and laparoscopy was done for search of a right impalpable testis and internal genitalia simultaneously. Laparoscopic examination revealed the structure like a mullerian duct remnant along the left spermatic duct in rectovesical fossa and right intra-abdominal testis. The structure like a mullerian duct remnant was not removed to preserve the left spermatic duct. Left orchiopexy and right laparoscopic staged Fowler- Stephens orchiopexy were performed. Chromosomal analysis was 46 XY karyotype and we diagnosed this case as persistent mullerian duct syndrome
医療データ解析へのサポートベクトルマシン(SVM)の応用
In our previous papers we proposed a novel screening methodbthat assists the diagnosis of Grave\u27s hyperthyrodism via two types of neural networks by making use of routine test data.This method can be applied by non-specialists during physical check-ups at a low cost and is expected to lead to rapid referrals for examination and treatment by thyroid specialists, that is,toimprove patient\u27QOL. In this report,we apply the support vector machine,which is a novel learning method building on kernels, to the classification problems of madical data such as Wisconsin breast cancer data or our screening of hyperthyroid.It turned out that the support vector machine ,after best turning of parameters based on the grid-search method,works quite well to correctly the lacated in the bordering area between two classes.Our results suggest that the SVM would work as a useful methods in our screening in addition to previous two types of neural networks
