Two cases of traumatic bilateral anterior and posterior dislocation of hip are reported. Dislocations were developed by a traffic accident as a passenger injury in truck. In both cases, the fractued femoral heads appeared posteriorly dislocated on x-ray examination and one of them was removed through posterior approach. Primary arthroplasty for operated hip was not attempted because the patient was young and the defect seemed to be unrelated to weight bearing surface. Extreme rarity of its incidence and curious uncertain mechanism of injury urge to report these cases.

The effectiveneas of compression plate fixation in promoting fracture healing could be due to a specific stimulus of compression on bone formation or to enhanced immobilization. ASI type heavy plate fixation for fracture of the femoral shaft was examined on occasions in three patient in the period 1971–1973. We believe that the major effect of the compression as applied through a compression plate is that of enhanced stabilization.

We experienced a case of transient complete A-V block, which developed probably due to acute myocarditis of viral etiology. The patient was 13 year old boy, and was admitted to our ward with chief complaints of intermittent abdominal pain and chest discomfort. The auscultation of the heart revealed, the 1st heart sounds varied in intensity, and the E.K.G. findings, checked then, showed complete A-V block with atrial rate of 110/min and ventricular rate of 73/min. We recommended absolute bed rest and oral prednisolove(50mg/day). He discharged on 10th hospital day in good condition with normalized E.K.G. finding.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a disorder of breathing during sleep characterized by prolonged partial upper airway obstruction or intermittent complete obstruction that disrupts normal ventilation during sleep and normal sleep patterns. Untreated OSAS can cause various problems such as cognitive deficit, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, failure to thrive and mood disorder. Therefore, early diagnosis and proper management is very important. The gold standard of diagnosis of OSAS is overnight polysomnography. Treatment includes the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and weight loss in obese children. Here, we present an obese 15-year-old boy presented with obstructive sleep apnea and attention deficit. He was diagnosed with OSAS by polysomnography and was successfully treated with CPAP.

Hereditary ovarian cancer accounts for about 5% to 10% of the total ovarian cancer bnurden, The discase has been observed in context with three types of hereditary ovarian cancer prone syndrome : (1) site-specific ovarian cancer, (2) hereditary breast/ivarian cancer syndrome, (3) hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer(Lynch syndrome II). Each of these syndmmcs is chracterized by autosomal dominant transmission of cancer, sigrdficant early age of onset, and exeess of multiple Iprimary cancers. Auuthor expxeriencecl six families with hereditaty ovarian cancer, two families with a site-spxific. ovarian cancer and four with a breast/ovarian cancer syndrome, and report these families.
