The management of subtrochanteric fracture of the femur is one of the most difficult problems. Subtrochanteric area is predominantly composed of cortical bone and highly concentrating portion of stress. So, there is high incidence of Complication after treatment of subtrochanteric fractures. The results were as follows :l. Of 56 cases, 45 occurred in male, 11 in female. 2. The fractures occured mainly between 20 to 40 years of age(55.4%) and mean age was 41.4 years. 3. The most common cause of fracture was traffic accident.(67.9%) 4. According to the Seinsheimer classification, 16 cases were type IIb(most common), 13 type IIIa and 9 type IIIb. 5. 49 cases with treated wutg open reduction and internal fixation and 7 cases conservatively. 6. The average weight bearing time was 14.0 weeks; 13 weeks in operatively treated group and 18.3 week in conservative group. 7. Radiological union was obtained in average 25.1 weeks ; shortest group was type IIc(16 weeks) and longest group was type IV(30 weeks). 8. Complication were as follows; 8 cases of delayed union, 3 nonunion, 4 metallic failures, 7 varus deformities and 1 nail migration. 9. In the cases treated by Judet plate or compression hip screw, there was no complications and relatively short duration of bony union than other implants. So, they are one of the good implant for the treatment of subtrochanteric fracture of the femur.

We have analysed 72 cases of geriatric patients over 70 year of age who underwent anesthesia in our Aospital from Jan. 1970 to May 1979 and the results were as follows; 1) Male patients were more than female(1.05: 1). (Male, 37 cases(51.4%) and female, 35cases (48. 6%). 2) By ASA classification, physical status was class II in 32 cases, E II in 24 cases, III in 12 cases, E III in 2 cases and IV in 2 eases. 3) The number of the patients of general surgery department(46.63%) was highest. 4) Preoperative problems were cardiovascular diseases including hypertension (11cases) and LVH(25 cases), arrhythmia(6cases), tachycardia(4cases), RBBB(2cases) and bradycardia (2 cases) in EKG. 5) Preoperative pulmonary disease including pulmonary tbc(14 cases), chronic bronchitis (6 cases), and emphysema(4 cases) was revealed in the chest PA. 6) There was no mortality during the operative or postoperative period.

Transient hyperkalemia has been reported to occur in eletric burn patients following intravenous administration of succinylcholine. We have studied the origin of the elevated serum K+ concentration after injection of succinylcholine from both the non-burned area and from the burned area in electirc burn patients. Blood samples for serum K+ measurement were drawn 1,2,3,4,5 and 10 minutes after administration of succinylcholine from both the burned are and the non-burned area in 6 electric burn patients. The following results were obtained: 1) Serum K+ levels increased in the burned group in 3 minutes after injection of succinylcholine. 2) The serum K+ concentration of venous samples from the electric burn area were more increased than from the non-burned area injection of succinylcholine.

Maternal and fetal effects of anesthesis for 781 cases ceasarean sections, performed during the past 10 years (1965~1974) in Hanil Hospital have been evaluated clinically. It is emphasized that the selection of anesthetic agents and methods, should depend upon the physical status of the patients and the ability of both obstetricians and anesthesiologists. Optimal results require effective teamwork amongst obstetricians, anesthesiologists and nursing personnel. The anesthesiologist should be fully infermed of obstetric aspects. A variety of anesthetic techniques can be used for elective and emergency Caesarean sections. Each technique has its own advantages, disadvantages and limitations which must be thoroughly understood for proper application. The choice of anesthesia should be determined primarily by the experience of the operator, the degree of ugency, condition of the monther and the fetus, the physiopathology, the skill of the obstetrician and the desires and the emotional state of the monther.

Transient hyperkalemia is well known to occur in man following intravenous administration of succinylcholine chloride. We studied the change of the serum potassium concentration after injection of succinylcholine in nonburn patients and electricburn patients, physical status 1 or 2 adopted by the American Society of Anesthesiologists. We compared two groups: Non-burn patient group(Group 1) as control, Electric burn patient group (Group 2) as experimental. The following results were obtained: 1) In non-burn patient group(Group 1) serum potassium concentration was slightly decreased in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 10th minute after succinylcholine injection compared with control, but nostatistical significance was noticed in this group. 2) In electric burn patient group (Group 2) serum potassium concentration was maximally increased compared with the controls. Statistical significance was noticed at the 2nd and 3rd minute after succinylcholine injection in this group.

Little has been reported concerning post-operative hypoglycemia in previously asymptomatic individuals. Post-operative hypoglycemic coma is one of the most perplexing problems and must be differentiated from other conditions accompaning coma. We experienced a case of hypoglycemia following emergency cesarean section in primigravida with cephalopelvic disproportion on the fourth post operative day. The comatous state appeared abruptly and developed repeatedly. The causes of post-hypoglycemic coma are discussed and the prolonged starvation before and after operation was suspected to be the cause of coma.
