Two cases of old unreduced dislocation of shoulder are reported. One was the posterior dislocation for six months with malunited fracture of humeral shaft in thirty degree lateral angulation. Her shoulder and arm aches with limitation of motion remaining only ten degrees in every direction but abduction in thirty degrees, The malunion of humeral shaft and shoulder were reduced surgically in result of eighty degrees abduction, seventy degrees flexion, sixty degrees extension and twenty degrees of external rotation with free of pain. Another case was an anterior dislocation for one year. Her range of shoulder motions are almost normal degree but brachial plaxus compression symptoms. Open reduction in practically Putti-Platt procedure was performed. She became completely free of brachial plexus symptom and ranges of shoulder motion are normal except about fifteen degrees less external rotation than preoperative condition. The surgical indication and the result of treatment were discussed for the the neglected cases of old unreduced dislocation of the shoulder.

Although many kinds of operation for rectal prolapse exist, generally they could be divided into the transabdominal and transperineal approach. The former has low recurrence rate as compared with the latter, but needs laparotomy. Unfortunately, many patients with rectal prolapse are old and debilitated. So they are not suitable candidates for a major abdominal operation. For those patient, a transperineal method may be proper, but the recurrence rate may be high and continence is not always achieved. We reviewed 12 patients who were older than 70 years of age and treated by the Thiersch operation among the 52 cases of rectal prolapse from Feb. 1992 to Mar. 1997 at Kwangju Christian Hospital. The results were summarized as follows; 1) The male to female ratio was 1 : 1.4. 2) Durations of rectal prolapse were distributed from 6 months to 30 years. Seven cases had duration of longer than 10 years. 3) The preoperative incidence of incontience was 8 (67%) of 12 cases. Among the 8 patients with incontinence, the male was 3 (37.5%) and female was 5 (62.5%). 4) Postoperative review of incontinence revealed complete disappearance in 4 cases (50%), improvement in 3 cases (37.5%), and no improvement in 1 case (12.5%). 5) After the Thiersch operation, rectal prolapse recurred in only 1 of the 12 cases (8.3%), a wound infection developed in 1 case (8.3%), defecation difficulty due to the small Thiersch ring was present in 3 cases (25%). The results of this study show that the Thiersch operation may be an effective method in treating rectal prolapse, especially in patient who are old or have poor general condition and manifested incontinence.

Hydroxyurea is an effective treatment for a variety of myeloproliferative disodrers. A distinct cutaneous reaction to long-term administration of hydroxyurea has been characterized and designated hydroxyurea dermopathy. Epidermal dysmaturation refers to histologic changes that may be observed in the epidermis after any significant cytoreductive therapy. We report a patient with hydroxyurea-induced dermatomyositis-like eruption showing epidermal dysmaturation who developed an erythematous scaly patches on the dorsal aspects of the hands while on long-term administration of hydroxyurea for chronic myelogenous leukemia.

The increasingly successful results of hair restoration surgery in the last years have developed the interest and the confidence of patients and it is the most frequently performed esthetic surgery among male patients. Currently, various kinds of techniques for hair restoration surgery including hair transplantation, scalp reduction, and scalp flaps are performed in our clinic. Among these, hair transplantation is the basic and the most popular procedure, which can be performed not only by itself but also in conjunction with other procedures. 123 consecutive cases of hair transplantations were peformed from Jan. 1995 to Feb. 1996 for male pattern baldness, traumatic alopecia, and female pattern baldness under out patient base. The authors introduced a new classification for male pattern baldness, which are the type M, O, C, U, M-O, and C-O after alphabet to make simple and easy for clinical application. The ancillary procedures were scalp reduction, preauricular flap, and scalp expansion. An ellipsis of hair bearing scalp taken from the occipital area was sliced into slit-, mega-, mini-, and micro-grafts. The survival rate of the grafts was over 90% with minimal complications. This hair transplantation technique enabled us to achieve a good density and more natural looking hair with avoidance of cobble stoning and apparent scar.

BACKGROUND: The optimal management of malignant obstruction of the left colon and rectum is controversial. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed of 33 patients who underwent one-stage operation(n=11), staged operation(n=20), and palliative colostomy(n=2) at Kwangju Christian Hospital between January 1992 and December 1996. RESULTS: Eleven patients underwent one-stage operations(7 cases with anterior resection, 3 cases with left hemicolectomy, 1 case with Miles' operation). In this group, postoperative morbidity was 36.3% including 1 wound infection(9.0%), 1 anastomotic leakage (9.0%), 1 postoperative intestinal obstruction and 1 pulmonary complication, but there was no postoperative death. The average of hospital stay in this group was 18.1 days and the first day of normal diet was 6.0 days. Twenty patients underwent staged operations including 12 cases of Hartmann's procedure. In this group, postoperative morbidity was 35.0% including 3 wound infections(15.0%), 2 pulmonary complications(10.0%), 1 parastomal hernia and 1 fistula. There were two postoperative deaths as a result of sepsis. The average of hospital stay in this group was 34.9 days and the first day of normal diet was 6.8 days. CONCLUSION: We believe that one-stage operation was of value in management of malignant obstruction of the left colon and rectum in selected patients.

It is well established that mast cell proliferation and maturation are regulated by two principle cytokines, IL-3 and the c-kit ligand stem cell factor (SCF). Previous reports have demonstrated that bone marrow-derived IL-3-dependent mast cells exhibit the characteristic apoptosis on removal of IL-3. To know how the number of mast cells is controlled, we observed the effects of nitric oxide (NO) on the murine bone marrow-derived cultured mast cells (BMCMC). Apoptosis was measured by the analysis of flow cytometric data and electrophoretic evidence of DNA fragmentation. Our data showed that sodiurn nitroprusside (SNP)-a NO releasing substance- induced apoptosis in BMCMC. Cell cycle analysis showed that the number of the G,/G, and S phase decreased markedly, while the percentage of cell in G,/M phase was increased. Also, SNP alone induced cell death, whereas SNP in combination with SCF markedly decreased cell death of BMCMC. SNP-induced apoptosis was partially inhibited by the treatment of BMCMC with SCF. Our results suggest that NO might have sorne role in the regulation of the number of mast cells.
