4.Immunohistochemical Expression of Neuron Specific Enolase-Positive Cells in Gastric Adenocarcinomas.
Korean Journal of Pathology 1991;25(4):291-304
In order to correlate the frequency of neuroendocrine cells with pathologic parameters in gastric adenocarcinomas, immunoperoxidase staining for neuron specific enolase was performed on 250 consecutive cases of surgically resected gastric adenocarcinomas(201 advanced gastric carcinomas[AGCs], 49 early gastric carcinomas[EGCs] and 2 cases of gastric carcinoid tumors. Of the 252 cases of gastric carcinomas, pure exocrine carcinomas were 174 cases(69%), pure neuroendocrine(NE) carcinomas 2 cases(0.8%), mixed exocrine and NE carcinomas 32 cases(12.7%), and exocrine carcinomas with occasional NE cells 44 cases(17.5%). The frequency of gastric carcinomas with NSE-positive cells increased with age proportionally. NSE positivity was higher in polypoid or fungating tumors(AGC Borrmann type I, II, EGC I and IIa) than ulcerative or scirrhous tumors. There was no significant difference in frequency of NSE-positive cells by histologic type and differentiation of gastric adenocarcinomas. The above findings reflect that most gastric carcinomas are heterogeneous in their constituents and suggest that both exocrine and neuroendocrine carcinomas are the expression of the extreme ends of the exocrine-endocrine differentiation spectrum based on the assumption that they develop from the pluripotent stem cells differentiating into both exocrine endocrine carcinomas.
5.Flow Cytometric DNA Analysis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Korean Journal of Pathology 1993;27(6):581-589
A flow cytometric analysis of the nuclear DNA content of solid tumors using paraffin-embedded tissues has become available since 1983, and its ploidy pattern has been designated as an important prognostic parameter in many human tumors. Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors among Koreans, but little information is consolidated about the significance of ploidy pattern. We measured the nuclear DNA content of 62 surgically resected HCCs and 45 non-neoplastic tissues from the surrounding parenchyma by flow cytometry. Aneuploid was detected in 18 cases(29.0%) in HCCs and 2 cases(4.4%) in nonneoplastic hepatic parenchyma(p<0.005). Correlations between the DNA ploidy pattern and various clinicopathologic findings of HCCs were analized. The mean tumor size was significantly different(p<0.05) between the aneuploid group(8.8 cm) and the diploid group(6.1 cm). Mean age of the aneuploid group was younger(47 year) than the diploid group(51 years), but the difference was not statistically significant(p=0.052). The DNA pattern did not show any meaningful correlation with the gross and microscopic features of HCC except for the presence of capsule. These results suggest that DNA ploidy correlates with growth rate of the tumor and it may be a possibly useful prognostic factor in HCCs.

9.Comparative Study of the Roentgenographic Methods for the Measurement of the Femoral Anteversion
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1986;21(3):387-396
The angle of the femoral anteverison has been recognized as an important consideration in the orthopedic Geld. The angle of the femoral anteversion can be measured roentgenographically by 3 methods, such as fluoroscopic, biplanar and axial methods. It is the purpose of this study to investigate the comparative accuracy of the roentgenographic methods determining the angle of the femoral anteversion. The measurements by the fluoroscopic(Rogers), biplanar (Magilligan) and axial (Dunn) methods were compared with the direct measurement of 42 adult dried femora and the measured values were statistically analyzed. The results were as follows: l. Among fluoroscopic, biplanar and axial methods, the biplanar method using Magilligan technique was the statistically reliable method to determine the angle of the femoral anteversion. 2. The axial method showed tendency to underestimate the angle of the femoral anteversion. 3. Though the fluoroscopic method was not so accurate as the biplanar method statistically, the 2 methods showed no difference in the ratio of measurement error within ±5°and ±10° range.

Korean Journal of Pathology 1998;32(2):150-152
Lymphoepithelial carcinoma is a rare subtype of undifferentiated carcinoma in the salivary gland. The incidence of lymphoepithelial carcinoma is about 0.4% among the patients with major salivary gland tumors. It has a racial preference; about 75% of the patients are of Mongolian ancestry. We report a case of lymphoepithelial carcinoma arising in the left parotid gland of a 52-year-old man. Grossly, the tumor was relatively well demarcated, gray-white, and solid. Microscopically, the irregular shaped syncytial tumor cell islands were evident within lymphoplasma cell-rich and desmoplastic stroma. The carcinoma cells had large vesicular nuclei and prominent nucleoli. The tumor invaded the surrounding salivary gland tissue. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was demonstrated by in situ hybridization for EBV-encoded RNA-1 (EBER-1) and polymerase chain reaction for EBV nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA-1).
