Orthopaedic wire has been used widely as a good internal fixator in cases of fracture, the ligament reconstruction, and for the stabilization of cervical spine. But if it is used inappropriately, a wire can be easy to fail by elongation, untwisting, or breakage. Among them, the most common failure of wire is breakage. To clarify the mechanism and the causes of wire failure, the authors analysed serial roentgenograms and scanning electronmicroscopic findings of broken wire in total 13 cases, which were experienced at the department of orthopaedic surgery, St. Mary's Hospital, Catholic University Medical College From January 1981 to December 1987. The results obtained were as follows :1. The mechanism of wire failure were classified into the 4 types ; minor continual flexing motion in 6 cases, repeated minor back and forth torsion in 1 case, tension failure in 2 cases and combined type in 4 cass. 2. The causes of wire failure were in appropriate use and inadequte application, a lack of s ufficient mechanical strength, micromotion due to inadequate postoperative imm obilization, early mobilization before tissue healing as well as certain injuries to the wire during handling in operation.

Thirty-five cerebello-pontine angle lesions were diagnosed with simple skull X-ray, CT, and angiography atSeoul National University Hospital from Sept. 1978 through Aug. 1982. The radiographic findings were analysed withemphasis on the differential points of CT among the major three cerebello-pontine angle tumors; acousticneurinoma, meningioma and epidermoid. The results are as follows; 1. Among the 35 cases of cerebello-pontine anglelesions, 19 cases were acoustic neurinoma. 4 cases miningioma, 4 cases epidermoid, 2 cases metastasis, 1 caseschoroid plexus papilloma, 1 case arteriovenous malformation, and 3 cases intra-axial posterior fossa tumors. 2.The characteristic radiographic findings of acoustic neurinoma were windening of internal auditory canal, petrousbone erosion, posterior extension of tumor at the level of internal autidory canal, hypo or isodense mass onpre-contrast CT with high enhancement after intravenous contrast infusion, and cystic change within the mass. 3.Meningioma shows anterior extenstion of the lesion at the level of internal auditory canal, broad base and obtuseangle sign of the lesion with petrous bone, hyperdense mass on precontrast CT. with highly homogeneous enhancementafter intravenous contrast infusion. 4. Epidermoid characteristically shows hypodense mass on precontrast CT withno change after intravenous contrast infusion. 5. The differential points of the major 3 cerebello-pontine tumorswere bone change, mass location, attenuation , degree of attachment to petrous bone, and cystic change.

Wide resection is an acceptable alternative to amputation for the management of primary sarcomas of the long bones or pelvis. The resected bone can be debrided of gross tumor tissue, autoclaved, and than replaced to reconstruct the limb anatomically. The procedure can be combined with prosthetic reconstruction of adjacent joints with sufficient strength to allow early unprotected weight-bearing. We had an experience of a large segmental defect in the shaft of the humerus after wide resection due to.a low grade malignant chondrosarcoma without extension to the surrounding soft tissues and this case had been managed by reimplantation after autoclaving the locally resected segment and autogenous iliac bone graft with a sound union and the favorable functional outcomes. So we are reporting this case with bibliographic reviews as a possible method of reconstruction for the management of the segmental defect which was produced by a local resection for a low grade malignancy.
