Primary malignant melanoma of the penis is very rare. No one case has been reported in Korea. A case of malignant melanoma of the glans penis in a 80 year old male is presented with a brief review of the literature.

Six cases of lunate dislocation were treated in the departments of orthopaedic surgery, Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital and Kangnam Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym College during the period from March 1, 1978 to August 31, 1982. The results were as follows; l. Among the total 6 cases, two cases had lunate dislocation only and the other four had associated injuries of the same wrist joints. 2. Marupulative reduction was successful in only one case. Five cases were treated by open reduction, and for four of them internal fixation was tried. 3. Postoperative roentgenograms showed acceptable reductions in all cases except one which redislocation occurred. This case showed lunate dorsiflexion instability and was treated with extensor carpi radialis longus tenodesis. 4. The cases with pure lunate dislocation yielded better functional recovery than those with associated carpal injuries.

We assessed 14 eyes of 14 patients with persisting hypotony due to cyclodialysis by blunt trauma of after secondary intraocular lens implantation. All the 14 eyes showed persistent hypotony and no increment of intraocular pressure(IOP) nor the visual acuity during the follow up period of average 4.6 months before treatment, We treated these eyes with argon laser photocoagulation and/or direct cyclopexy. After treatment, the IOP changed from 3.7+/-1.5mmHg to 13.7+/-5.1mmHg, and posttreatment IOP was greater than 8mmHg in 12 eyes. All 14 eyes showed visual acuity under 0.3 before the treatment and after treatment, the visual acuity improved by 4.2+/-3.3 lines at the last follow up visit. The follow up period was 12.5 months on average. Before treatment, all the 12 eyes that had no medial opacity showed hypotony maculopathy, but after treatment only 4 eyes showed persisting hypotony maculopathy. A-scan axial length measurement was performed on 8 eyes before and after treatment, and the axial lengths were increased by 0.90+/-0.88mm after treatment in 7 eyes in which IOP were increased. The change in refractive errors before and after treatment was possible to be assessed in 9 eyes and among them, 7 eyes showed increment of IOP. Among those 7 eyes, 2 eyes had shallow chambers with anteriorly displaced lens before treatment and showed repositioning of lenses and hyperopic shift by +2.86 Dsph on average after treatment, but the remaining 4 eyes excluding one eye that received lensectomy at the time of surgery for taumatic cataract, showed myopic shift by -2.31 Dsph on average after treatment.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the ultrasonomammographic findings of breast fibroadenoma. METHODS AND MATERIALS:We evaluated the ultrasonographic findings of histopathologically proved 135 fibroadenomas in 103 patients from January 1986 to September 1990, retrospectively. The ultrasonographic examinations were performed with a hand held linear array 5MHz transducer(Acuson 128(USA). Aloka 650, 280(Japan)). A sonopad was also used during the examinations. RESULTS: The common ultrasonographic findings of fibroadenomas usually showed smooth contour in 120 lesions(88.9% ), oval or round shape in 114 lesions(84.4%), uniform homogeneous echogenecity in 106 lesions(78.5% ), intermediate hypoechoic internal echo pattern in 105 lesions(77.8%), thin boundary echo in 117 lesions(86.7%), lateral shadowings in 97 lesions(72%), and posterior acoustic enhancement in 56 lesions(41%). The longitudinal/transverse ratio of fibroadenoma was revealed between 0.2 and 1.14 (mean 0.58) and usually under 1.0 (68.9%). CONCLUSION: Finally, most of fibroadenomas are easily diagnosed by ultrasonography but if differential diagnosis from malignant breast mass is difficult due to atypical appearance, other combined modalities such as filmmammography, fine needle aspiration biopsy and MRI are necessary.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the characteristic CT findings of neuroblastoma, we studied neurobalstomas. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We analysed CT findings of available 25 cases among pathologically proved 51 neurobalstomas from Jan. 1983 to Sept. 1990. RESULTS: The most frequent site of origin is adrenl gland (40%) and the second is retroperitoneum (32%) and the third ismediastinum (16%). Characteristic CT findings are as follows:Calcifications within the tumor is detected in 86% of abdominal neuroblastomas and 50% of mediastinal origin. Hemorrhagic and necrotic changes within the tumor is noted at 86% in the tumor of abdominal origin and 25% in mediastinal neuroblastomas. Contrast enhanced study showed frequently septated enhanced appearance with/without solid contrast enhancement. Encasements of major great vessels such as aorta and IVC with/without displacement by metastatic lymphnodes or tumor are frequently seen in 90% of abdominal neuroblastomas. Multiple lymphadenopathy are detected in 95% of abdominal neurobalstomas and 25% of mediastinal neuroblastomas. The most common organ of contiguous direct invasion is kidney in 6 cases and the next one is liver but intraspinal canal invasion is also noted in 2 cases. CONCLUSION: We concluded that diagnosis of neuroblastoma would be easily obtained in masses of pediatric group from recognition of above characteristic findings.
