Objective: We encountered a patient with lateral medullary infarction during transarterial embolization of the posterior meningeal artery (PMA). We reviewed the anatomic characteristics/imaging findings of this disorder.Case Presentation: A 69-year-old male. Cerebral infarction involving the lateral medulla occurred during transarterial embolization of a dural arteriovenous fistula. It was considered to be a complication related to occlusion of a lateral medulla-penetrating vessel on microcatheter/guidewire operations in the PMA. When examining images in detail, the blood vessel could be confirmed using DSA and 3D angiography.Conclusion: When performing embolization, the presence of a brainstem-penetrating vessel originating from the PMA must be considered.

We herein report a case of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis caused by Lysinibacillus sphaericus in a 40s-year-old patient. Treatment was initiated with intermittent intraperitoneal cefazolin and ceftazidime. Later, both peritoneal dialysate and blood cultures detected L. sphaericus, so the antibiotic was changed to ampicillin (ABPC). The patient was treated with a combination of intraperitoneal intermittent and intravenous ABPC for 7 days, followed by 14 days of amoxicillin. The patient experienced no adverse events and no recurrence for 30 days. The patient had four dogs, and the infection was deemed likely to have been caused by environmental contamination and inadequate catheter replacement.

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic disease characterized by motile cilia dysfunction, mostly inherited in an autosomal recessive or X-linked manner. We herein report a 29-year-old woman with PCD caused by a heterozygous frameshift mutation due to a single nucleotide deletion in exon 3 of FOXJ1. Heterozygous de novo mutations in FOXJ1 have been reported as an autosomal-dominant cause of PCD. The patient had situs inversus, congenital heart disease, infertility, and hydrocephalus. However, the nasal nitric oxide level was normal. Long-term macrolide therapy was remarkably effective. This is the first case report of PCD caused by a FOXJ1 variant in Japan.
