Patients with rickets frequently are seen by orthopaedic surgeon with complaints of growth disturbance, limb deformity, weakness, and multiple fracture. Among them, bow leg deformity is the most common and difficult orthopaedic problem. In growing child, however, if effective tretment is given sufficiently in early age and early disease process, the deformities usually correct spontaneously and there is little need for orthopaedic treatment other than careful observation. The orthopaedic treatment may be required to correct deformities that cannot be expected to improve with growth. A clinical study was done for 11 cses of rachitic bow leg deformity who were treated at the department of orthopaedic surgery, Catholic medical College and Center from Jan. 1978 to Dec. 1981. Results obtained were as follows: 1. The most common patients age group was in 1 to 2 years of age and there was no sexual difference. 2. Associated deformities with rachitic bow leg were rachitic rosary (5 cases), double wrist (3 cases), coxa vara (1 case), and Harrison's groove (1 case). 3. Low Ca * P solubility product, below the level of 30 (mg/dl)2 suggested active form of rickets in all cases. 4. Laboratory values such as Ca * P solubility product and alkaline phosphatase improved at 3 weeks after administration of vitamin D in 7 cases, 3 at 6 weeks, and no improvement in one case even at 6 months after treatment. 5. Six months after treatment, the average amount correction of tibiofemoral angle was 9° (43.7% of initial angle) in group 1, 13.3° (47.0%) in group II, 4.9° (29.6%) in group III, and 3.3°(25.6%) in group IV. 6. Through this study it is suggested that the more growth correction of the rachitic bow leg deformity in a younger child below the age of 2 is obtained with growth by treatment, whereas a little or no growth correction can be expected after the age of 3 or 4 years.

Cutis marmirata telangiectatica congenita, first described by van Lohuizen in 1922, is a rare congenital vascular anomaly. This name is still generally used in Europe, but in American literature the most comrnon designation for this disease is generalized congenital phlebectasia. We represent the first reported case of cutis marmorata telangiectatica, congenita in Korea. The patient, 8 months old boy, has generalized cutis marmorata-like reticulated mottlings on his entire skin except the rnucous membranes since birth. He also has complete cleft palate but no other detectable congenital vascular malformation. The skin lesion shows spontaneous gradual improvement from three months of age.

This study was aimed to clarify the effects of systemic kainic acid (KA) administration (10 mg/kg i.p.) on somatostatin containing neurons, and to examine the distribution of somatostain immunoreactive neurons in the cerebral cortex of the rats. Animals were sacrificed at three time points at the two, six, and ten days after the injection of KA. Thirty-six rats were observed by using the free-floating immunohistochemical method (modified ABC method). The results were as follows: 1) In the anterior and posterior cingulate cortex, somatostatin immunoreactive neurons were not observed in 2,6,10days after treatment of KA including control group except Cg 1 showing some somatostatin immunoreactive neurons in 10days and control groups. 2) In the insular cortex, somatostatin immunoreactive neurons also were not observed in any groups except AIV showing few somatostatin immunoreactive neurons in control group. 3) In the perirhinal cortex, few somatostatin immunoreactive neurons were observed in 2 days and 6 days groups. In control group, a number of somatostatin immunoreactive neurons observed. 4) A strong decrease of somatostatin immunoreactive neurons were observed in the frontal, arietal, temporal and occipital cortex 2 days after treatment of KA. Initially decreased somatostatin immunoreactive neurons had recovered to control 10 days after treatment. 5) Distribution of the somatostatin immunoreactive neurons was observed marked difference according to the cortical areas. Somatostatin immunoreactive neurons in isocortex were more increased in number than the allcotex by control study. The changes in somatostatin immunoreactive neurons after systemic treament of KA were marked in 2 days and 6 days, but these had recovered to control 10 days the treatment of KA. It suggested the normalization of the cerebral function 10 days after seizure. According to the cerebral cortex, the different distribution of somatostatin immunoreactive neurons in number was observed.

A case of multiple myeloma combined with stomach cancer and related literatures were reviewed. A 67 year-old male patient entered the hospital with dysphagia and weight loss for 3 months. Peripheral blood examination revealed anemia with rouleaux formation. Total protein of the serum was 9.9 g/dl with hyperglobulinemia (albumin 2.7 g/dl, globulin 7.2 g/dl, A/G ratio 0.375). On the electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis of the serum, the abnormal protein with the pattern of monoclonal gammopathy (IgG-K type) was shown. There were multiple variable sized osteolytic lesions on skull X-ray and abnormal hot uptakes of rips on bone scan and result of rib biopsy was plasmacytoma. Gastrofiberscopy was performed to search for the cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, revealed stomach cancer, and the result of the gastric mucosal biopsy proved to be well-differentiated adenocarcinoma.

The Waltons method-a method of dynamic reconstruction of old ligament injuries of the knee and a combination procedure of O'Donoghue, Bosworth, and Slocum-was introduced with one case experience. This method seemed to be better than other reconstructive procedures, especially in the aspect of rotatory and valgus instability of the knee.
