Hallux valgus is a complex deformity consisting of more than a 20° valgus angle of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. And more than 9° between the first and second metatarsals as well as bursal hypertrophy over the medial eminance of the first metatarsal head(bunion). Many surgical procedures have been available for treating the hallux valgus complex. Johnson and Coreless have acquired sufficiently good results in modifying the Mitchell osteotomy into the chevron osteotomy. They recommend the chevron osteotomy for the hallux valgus complex with the following patient profile : younger than 50 years old, hallux valgus angle less than 40°, the first-second intermetatarsal angle less than 20°. This procedure consists of 1) medial eminance removal, 2) V-shaped intracapsular osteotomy through the first metatarsal head, 3) lateral displacement of the capsular fragment, 4) removal of the resulting projection of the first metatarsal, and 5) medial capsulorrhaphy. Our results of eleven cases of the hallux valgus deformity which were treated by the chevron osteotomy during the period form July 1985 to Februsary 1988, in the Orthopedic Department of Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center were as follows. 1. The average age at surgery was 43 years. 2. The average valgus angle was 38° and the first-second intermetatarsal angle was 15° preoperatively. They were correted to 19° and 10° respectively. 3. All cases had complained of severe metatarsalgia preoperatively. 4. The metatarsalgia subsided in all cases, and no avascular necrosis or nonunion was found.

The clinical role of tumor markers to detect the extent of tumor invasion and recurrence in cervical cancer has been debated. To evaluate the chncal significance of SCC, CEA and TPA as tumor markers in cervical, we studied 744 patients weith cervieal cancer from June 1990 to Mey 1994. The cut-off val ues of SCC, CEA and TPA were 1.5 ng/ml, 4.5 ng/mi and 110 U/I respectively. Followings were the results. 1. The serum concentration and positive rates of SCC before therapy(567 cases) were 3,0+/-7.0ng/ml(40.4%) for stage I,8.7+/-13.9 ng/ml(71.6%) for stage II, 10.8+/-14.7 ng/ml(85.7%) for stage III, 23.9+/-24.3 ng/ml(94.7%) for stage IV, and 13.4+/-19.1 ng/ml(75.0%) for recurrent cancer. It was increased with advancing clinical stage(p<0.01). 2. The seum levels and positive rate of CEA before therapy(627cases) were 3.4+/-4.3 ng/ml (18%) for stage I, 7.1+/-12.3 ng/ml(37.2%) for stage II, 8.4+/-9.6 ng/ml(57.9%) for stage III, 15.4+/-22.2 ng/ml(52.6%) for stage IV, and 10.3+/-16.2 ng/ml(46.4%) for recurrent cancer. It was increased with advancing clinical stage from stage Ito stage III(p<0.01). 3. The serum concentration and positiceive rate of TFA before therapy(301cases) were 51.7+/-53.8 U/l(9.5%) for stage I, 105.3+/-108.8 U/l(32.3%) for stage II, 186.3%+/-159.8 U/l(50%) for stage III, 191.3+/-l06.2 U/I(63.6%) for stage IV, and 135.4+/-117.0 U/l(46.4%) for recurrent cancer. It was increased with advencing clinical stage(p<0.01). 4. In 64 patients{24.2%) with lymph node invasion of 265 patients treated by operation, the mean serum levels of SCC, CEA and TPA were higher than lymph node negative group(p<0.05). 5. The serum levels of SCCand CKA after therepy were 82.8% in sensitivity. 94.3% in specificity, 67.9% in positive predictive value, 97.4% in negative predictive value.

It is indispensable to cover the skin defect when bone or tendon is exposed. In case of inevitable amputation of an extremity, it is possible to harvest a free flap from the amputed limb for providing coverage of the other wound. This technique allows immediate wound coverage without the morbidity of an additional donor site. We experienced an electrical burn case with inevitahle wrist disarticulation and successfully treated soft tissue defect of ankle using free vascularized flap.

The pedicled fillet flap concept has been successfully applied in both the upper and lower extremities for the treatment of difficult wound. In cases of inevitable extremity amputation, the transfer of pedicled flap from the amputed part is possible. In such substance, it is possible to obtain the pedicled fillet flap from the amputed limb to provide stump coverage. We experienced two cases of below-knee amputation due to severe flame burn which the stump was covered with island pedicled sole-fillet flap.

Subtrochanteric fracture of the femur is more difficult to treat than other bone fracture. Subtrochanteric fracture occurs in bone that is predominently cortical and biomechanical analyeis of stress in the femur ahowed that there is a high concentration of stress in the subtrochanteric region. These two factors, involvement of cortical bone tissue and concentration of stress, frequently have been mentioned as reasons for the high incidence of complications in the treatment of these fractures. The authors treated 23 cases of subtrochanteric fracture of the femur in 1974 through 1981, at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, School of Medicine, Soon Chun Hyang College. The results were as follows: 1. Of 23 cases of subtrochanteric fracture, 15 cases occurred in man, 8 cases in woman. 2. The most common cause of fracture was due to traffic accident. 3. Of 23 cases of subtrochanteric fracture, 9 cases were type lI, and 7 cases were type I & II by Fielding's classification. 4. 19 cases out of 23 were treated by means of the open reduction and internal fixation. As the internal fixation material, we used Kuntscher nail, Smith-Peterson and Thornton plate, Compression hip screw and plate until December 1978, and Zickel nail from January 1979. 5. The mean duration of bony union in subtrochanteric fracture treated by Zickel nail was shorter than the other implants. The incidence of complications such as coxa vara, delayed union, metal breakage occurred higher in the cases treated by Kuntscher nail, Smith-Peterson nail and Thornton plate, Campression hip screw and plate. 6. Zickel nail is one of the good implant for the treatment of subtrochanteric fracture of the femur.

Acetabular fractures assume great clinical importance because acetabular is weight bearing joint in the lower extremity. The undisplaced fractures of the acetabulum gave satisfactory results with closed method, but the treatment of displaced fractures have been controversial. A clinical analysis was performed on the 72 patients with displaced acetabular fractures, who had been treated at Soonchunhyang University Hospital from January 1980 to December 1989. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The prevalent age ranged from 21 to 50 years, which comprised 86.1% of all, and the ratio between male and female was 3:l. 2. The most common cause of injury was traffic accident, which comprised 76.4%. 3. According to Letournel's classification, simple fracture was 38 cases (52.8%), associated fracture was 34 cases (47.2%) and hip dislocation was associated in 28 cases (38.9%) and most common was posterior (20.8%). 4. Closed treatment was done in 47 cases and open treatment in 25 cases. 5. Results of open treatment group were better than closed treatment group in both clinical and roentgenographic study. 6. The complication were occured in 14 (29.8%) out of 47 cases of closed treatment group, and 10 (40.0%) out of 25 cases of open treatment group. 7. Not only choice of treatment but also determination of surgical approach require accurate assessment of the fracture pattern in this region of complex bony architecture by careful radilogic analysis.

Fractures in the subtrochanteric region of the femur present more formidable problems in treatment than do other trochanteric fractures, because such severe stresses exit at the fracture site. Therefore, as a rule we prefer to treat subtrochanteric fractures by operative means if possible. Many internal fixation devices have been recommanded for use in subtrochanteric fractures and each of these devices have advantages in certain types of subtrochanteric fractures, and their selection should be based on the individual fracture anatomy. A total of 20 patients with fracture of the subtrochanteric region of the femur, who were treated by internal fixation with Judet plate between January 1982 and December 1988 have been reviewed. Our conclusions were as follows; 1. Average age was 38 years old and most common cause of injury was traffic accident. 2. Cast immobilization was done after Judet plate fixation. Partial weight bearing ambulation was enabled from POD 10 weeks and full weight bearing ambulation was enabled from POD 16 weeks. 3. 18 in 20 cases, primary bony union was happened and the mean duration of radiological bony union was 24 weeks. 4. 3 cases of complications, metal failure with refracture (2 cases) and screw loosening (1 case), were occured due to early weight bearing in the post operative course. 5. Judet plate fixation was gave satisfactory result in uncomminuted subtrochanteric fracture, especially Seinsheimer's type I, II-A,B,C or Fieldings type I, II. 6. From a consideration of these series, Judet plate showed easy to use, perfect adaptation and rigid fixation. We thought Judet plate is one of a good implants for rigid fixation of subtrochanteric fracture without severe medial cortical disruption.
