Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) associated with a contralateral neurological deficit is sometimes encountered by surgeons. Compression against the opposite pedicle in case of a large discal herniation and prominent stenotic changes of contralateral side are held responsible for contralateral symptoms and findings. In this study, we report a case of LDH associated with a painless contralateral neurological deficit. Prominent venous engorgement and congestion at the contralateral side of discal herniation were detected during the operation. It's treatment with bipolar coagulation and significant improvement was seen after the operation.

4.The Diagnosis of Conjunctivitis.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1979;20(3):261-266
The diagnosis of existence of conjunctivitis with its cardinal symptoms of hyperemia and disch arge is easy, but the differential diagnosis of the types of inflanimation frequently presents problems of considerable difficulty. Their solution depends on a careful and systemic clinical survey, reinforced by bacteriological and cytological investigation. So, the diagnosis of conjunctivitis is based on the followings: 1. History and clinical examination. 2. Gram and Wright gtains of conjunctival discharge and scrapings. 3. Culture of conjunctival discharge and scrapings. 4. Biopsy of the conjunctiva.

5.Industrial Photophthalmia.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1973;14(2):124-127
Radiational injury to ultra-violet rays has brought to acute flash-eye of occupational type in four patients who didnt used the protective eye-wear; Case 1, a medical physician. 29 yr old male, was occurred the symptoms after exposure of about 3 hrs to ultra-violet lamp in the laboratory. Case 2, a trainee of welding, 19 yr old male, was occurred from electric welding. Cases 3 and 4, all electricians of 38 and 26 yrs old males, were occurred typical photophthalmia from the spark of electric arc. They all revealed prominent hyperemia especially in exposed area of the bulbar conjunctiva.

6.Bacterial Identification in the Medicinal Leech.
Journal of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons 2000;27(6):605-608
The use of medicinal leech(Hirudo medicinalis) has been increased during the past years and is a very common procedure for treatment of venous congestion in flaps and replanted part in plastic surgery. One of the main complication in using leeches is infection. We used the medicinal leeches in venous congestion after total ear reconstruction(8 cases) and replanted finger(1 case). A bacteriologic study of the leeches is undertaken before applying it to the patient and an antibiotic susceptibility test was also performed. In 6 patients. 6 pathogenic organisms were identified, and in 2 cases 2 different organisms were identified simultaneously.

Cerebral developmental venous anomaly (DVA) is generally benign. However, we have experienced two cases of DVA causing symptoms. In the first case, the patient demonstrated DVA with venous infarction. DVA was visualized in the arterial phase using digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and was diagnosed as arterialized DVA. The second case presented as transient right homonymous hemianopia. DSA revealed venous congestion; the transient aggravation of venous congestion may have caused the symptom. DSA is useful for diagnosing the pathomechanism of symptomatic DVAs.

8.Microdissected Prefabricated Flap: An Evolution in Flap Prefabrication.
Archives of Plastic Surgery 2016;43(6):599-603
When traditional flap techniques are not feasible, we apply flap prefabrication, which is more complicated and sophisticated but supplies large and thin flaps. There are some disadvantages to the technique that require improvement, such as venous congestion after flap transfer, which requires months for neoangiogenesis and necessitates a vascular carrier. Here, the author presents a new technique, called as ‘microdissected prefabricated flap,’ to successfully produce a safe, large, and thin flap. This technique is based on the microdissection of the perforators to the greatest extent possible, spreading them out into the subdermal level and using them as a carrier. The details and the application of this technique are presented and reported.

9.Primary Exercise Headache attributed to Jump Rope in Children: Case Report.
Journal of the Korean Child Neurology Society 2014;22(1):17-19
Primary exercise headache (PEH) is usually precipitated by prolonged physically strenuous exercise. The headache is usually bilateral, severe, and pulsating in character in the patients with exercise headache. The pathophysiological mechanisms of PEH are still unknown. Most investigators believe it is vascular in origin, hypothesizing that venous or arterial distension secondary to physical exercise is the pain-inducing mechanism. The jump-rope could also evoke PEH due to intracranial venous congestion from retrograde jugular venous flow. Indomethacin is known to be effective for the majority of the cases. This is the first case with primary exercise headache from the jump-rope in Korean children.

10.Investigation for the Uses of Topical Ophthalmic Drugs Without Doctor's Prescription.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1990;31(4):419-424
A questionnaire to investigate the uses of topical ophthalmic drugs without doctor's presciption was made up to the general public. The subjects of study were 446 outpatients' guardians, and 46.1% of them had an experience of purchasing the topical ophthalmic drugs without doctor's prescription. The main cause of purchasing the drugs is conjunctival hyperemia. The kinds of drugs used were 8 of anti-infectives, 5 of corticosteroids, 5 of decongestants, and 2 of others, of which the decongestants were the most purchased drugs without doctor's prescription. About one third of them used the drugs irregulary, or more than 1 month. The rate of no improvement after the use of drugs was 58.8%.
