Tomography has played an important role in diagnosis of facial bone fracture. Nowadays, it still acts as ainevitable process in decision of adequate treatment in patient with facial bone fracture. At the Department ofRadiology, Hanyang University Hospital, 74 patients who have facial bone fracture, were observed and analyzed withsimple skull films, mainly skull A-P, lateral and Water's view, after comparison with tomographic findings. Theresults were as follows; 1. Male was in 90.5% incidence. Most frequent age distribution was 21 to 40 years andmarked 62.2%. 2. Most frequent cause of trauma was traffic accident as 41 cases and the next one was fall down as13 cases. Other cause were blunt trauma such as first, stone, heavy metal etc. and explosion. 3. Clinical symptomsand physical signs were painful swelling, abrasion, ecchymosis and subconjuctival hemorrhage in almost allpatient. 4. Fracture distribution was 22 cases in simple fracure and 52 cases in complex fractures which were 26cases in Tripod fractures, 14 cases in Le Fort fractures and 12 cases in combined complex fractures. 5. Theradiologic findings on tomography were opacity of orbit of P.N.S. 87.8%, regional soft tissue swelling 85.1%,displacement of bony fragment 56.8%, abnormal linear density in orbit or P.N.S. 48.6%, bony fragment in orbit orP.N.S. 47.3% change of size of orbit of P.N.S. 40.5%, foreign body in orbit or P.N.S. 16.2%, and others 27.0%.These radiologic findings of simple fracture were less than those of complex fracture. 6. Radiologic findings offacial bone fracture on simple films were analyzed after comparison with tomograhs. Detectable possibility ofobvious fracture lines such as cortical disruption or separation was 67.6% on simple filsm. Detectable possibilityof other radiologic findings on simple films were displacement of bony fragment 86.7%, abnormal linear density inorbit or P.N.S. 88.6%, bony fragment in orbit or P.N.S. 71.4%, opacity of orbit or P.N.S. 90.8%, change of size ororbit or P.N.S. 96.4%, regional soft tissue swelling 96.2%, foreign boy in orbit or P.N.S.41.7%. Others such asabsence or deformity of infraorbital foramen, subcutaneous emphysema or intraorbital air 40.0%. Thereforetomography is inevitably taken to correct diagnosis of facial bone fracture.

Eighty-three of 114 original articles and abstracts of research published by neuropsychiatrists of Chosun Chongdokbu Hospital (the Japanese colonial government hospital in Korea) and Keijo (Seoul) Imperial University Hospital during the Japanese colonial period (1910-1945) in journals including Shinkeigaku-zassi (Neurologia), Seishin-shinkei-gaku zassi (Psychiatria Et Neurologia Japonica), and The Journal of Chosun (Korea) Medical Association were reviewed. Most articles were on clinical research based on descriptive and biological psychiatry while only 4 articles were on dynamic psychiatry, probably because Japanese pioneers in psychiatry had introduced German psychiatry into Japan during the 1880s. The first paper was written by Dr. Shim Ho-sub. Professor Kubo of Keijo (Seoul) Imperial University published most articles, followed by Dr. Hikari, Dr. Hattori, and Dr. Sugihara. There were more articles on symptomatic psychosis and morphine addiction, followed by general paralysis, schizophrenia, neurological diseases, narcolepsy, epilepsy, and neurasthenia. The meaningful articles even for today were comparative studies between Japanese and Koreans and articles on opioid use disorder in Korea. Authors reported a markedly lower rate of psychotic inpatients in the population of Koreans compared with Japanese. Japanese researchers argued that, because of simpleness in social life in Korea and less violence or excitement in symptoms, Korean mental patients could be cared for by family or members of the community, or be treated by shamanism rather than bringing them to a public mental hospital, and poverty also prohibited hospital care. Finding of higher ratio of schizophrenia to manic-depressive psychosis among Koreans than Japanese was discussed in relation to delayed cultural development of Korea compared to Japan. In addition, traditional customs prohibiting marriage between relatives in Korea was related to low prevalence of manic-depressive psychosis, local endemic malaria was related to low prevalence of general paresis, and poor general hygiene was related to high prevalence of epilepsy. Unclear (undifferentiated) form of psychotic symptoms including hallucination and delusion was reported in more Koreans than Japanese. Also Korean patients showed a more atypical form in diagnosis. Authors added that they had found no culture-specific mental illness in Korea. However, no Korean psychiatrists were included as author in such comparative studies. Comparative studies on constitution between Koreans and Japanese mental patients and prisoners were also unique. However, no Korean psychiatrists participated in such comparative studies. In studies on morphine addiction in Koreans, Japanese researchers argued that such studies were necessary to prevent introduction of morphine-related criminal phenomena to Japan. Meanwhile, Dr. Kubo had left a notion on adaptation problems of Japanese living in the foreign country, Korea. Nevertheless he reported nothing about psychosocial aspects of mental illness in relation to political, cultural, and economic difficulties Koreans were experiencing under the colonial rule of Japan. These general trends of studies based on German biological and descriptive psychiatry and policies of colonial government to isolate "dangerous" mental patients in hospital appeared to reflect colonial or ethnopsychiatry of those days. These policy and research trends seem to have worsened stigma attached to mental disorders. Japanese tradition of psychiatric research was discontinued by return home of Japanese scholars with the end of WWII and colonial rule.

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a rare embryonic malignant tumor of the liver. Most morphological studies on HB have limited to the histological characteristics and only 3 cases of HB have been described in the cytology literature. We present 2 cases of HB occurring in children aged 1 year and 3 years, respectively. The distinctive cytologic features of fine needle aspiration of HB were clusters of tumor cells showing acinar and trabecular pattern, smaller tumor cells with a high nuclear-cytopalsmic ratio and hyperchromatic nuclei having prominent nucleoli, and the presence of extramedullary hematopoiesis and osteoid material. These features were also found in the cell block and the biopsy specimen, and appeared very useful in the differentiation of HB from hepatocellular carcinoma.

Intracranial tuberculomas have been reported occasionally, especially in Asia, though much decreased in recentyears. Those lesions can be diagnosed more easily and acurately using CT than conventional method, including angiography. Authors analysed CT findings of 21 cases, confirmed as tuberculoma, at Hanyang University Hospital from May 1979 to June 1983. The resuslts were as follows; 1. Of all 21 cases, multiple lesions were seen in 14 cases (67%) and single in 7(33%). 2. Of all 21 cases, lesions located only at supratentorial were in 19 cases(90%) and remained 2(10%) had lesions at both supra and infratentorial area. And temporal and parietal lobes were common location (65%) of all lesions. 3. In precontrast scan, density of tuberculoma showed largely isodense (68%)and others were slight high (29%) and low(3%). 4. All lesions were enhanced showed as homogeneous nodular (68%),ring-shaped(29%) and target shaped(3%). 5. All rings were continuous and thickness was largely uniform(67%), anddensity of center of the ring was mainly low(67%). 6. Edema was seen in 58% of all lesions: comparing with thesize of tuberculoma, edema size was smaller in 50%, lager in 33% and almost the same in 17%.
