Objective To observe the effect of Yiqi Huoxue decoction combined with chemical arterial perfusion in treating advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods Review the clinical effect and benefit response of Yiqi Huoxue decoction combined with chemicals (Gemcitabine+PDD) arterial perfusion in treating 43 cases of advanced pancreatic cancer. Results The objective response rate (CR+PR) in treated group was 25.6%. The clinical benefit response rate (CR+PR+NC) in treated group was 67.4%,and the clinical benefits were mainly in the aspects of pain extent and quality of life. The rate of relief from pain was 74.3%. Conclusion The effect of Yiqi Huoxue decoction combined with chemicals (Gemcitabine+PDD) arterial perfusion in treating advanced pancreatic cancer was reliable,and the clinical benefit response was good.

Objective To observe the effectiveness of liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening traditional Chinese medicine combined with intra-arterial infusion of chemical medicine for advanced primary hepatocellular cancer patients.Methods One hundred and twenty primary hepatocellular cancer patients were randomly assigned to treatment group(60 patients) and control group(60 patients).The treatment group was treated by traditional Chinese medicine combined with intra-arterial infusion of chemical medicine,while only intra-arterial chemical medicine was applied to the control group.The intra-arterial chemical medicine was applied every four weeks.Each group received at least two courses of treatment.Aspects such as treatment effectiveness,quality of life,immune function and the condition of blood coagulation were observed.Results Clinical stable rate of the treatment group was 80.8%,higher than the control group obviously(P

The 68 cervical cerclage operations of incompetent internal os of the cervix(IIOC) were performed at the Taegu Catholic Medical Center from Jan. 1, 1990 to Dec. 31, 1995. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The incidence of operation for IIOC was 0.23% of total delivery. 2. Highest number of IIOC was observed in the age group of 25 to 29, and the average number of pregnancy before operation was 4.1. 3. The significant contributory factor was previous history of the induced or spontaneous abortion. 4. In all cases, cerclage method was McDonald operation. 5. The average fetal salvage rate after operation was 82.5% and from the 14th week to 16th week of gestation(43 cases), the success rate of operation was 85%. 6. The causes of operation failure were premature labor in 6 cases(55%), premature rupture of membrane in 3 cases(27%) and abortion in 2 cases(18%) in order.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ambroxol on preventing the infantile respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS) in preterm birth at the Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Taegu Catholic Medical Center during the period from Jan. 1996 to Dec. 1996. Total of 68 cases were evaluated including 16 ambroxol group and 52 control group. The result were as follows : 1. In the comparison of preventing IRDS, there was 0 case of IRDS in ambroxol group and 7 cases of IRDS in control group (13.46 %). There was a significant difference between two groups (p<0.05). 2. The side effects of ambroxol after administration were nausea in 5 cases, headache in 3 cases, and chest discomfort in 4 cases, but these were not serious and self controlled. 3. There was no significant difference in neonatal morbidity between two groups (p > 0.05).

Leiomyoma is one of the rarest solid tumor of the ovary. Approximately 50 cases have been published to date. However, most reported leiomyoma of the ovaries were small and rarely induced serious symptoms. We report a case of ovarian leiomyoma in 57-year-old woman which has been experienced in our haspital with brief review of literature.

Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a rare, chronic non-inflammatory bullous disease, which easily forms bullae by minor mechanical trauma or spontaneously, is inherited either in an autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive fashion. We report herein two cases which presented with bullae, erosions and ulcers on extremities, buttock, chest, abdomen and face and loss of all nail since birth in two sisters. Bulla occured bencath the basal lamina histopathologically, anchoring fibrils were almost absent on electron miaoscopy in both cases. The two sisters represented dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa considering the absence of family history inheritcd in an autosomal dominant fashion and the clinical, histological and electronmicroscopic findings.

OBJECTIVE: The authors perform a retrospective analysis in order to evaluate long-term outcome results after surgical treatment of giant pituitary adenoma (PA) and to suggest the optimal treatment strategies. METHODS: From 1990 to 2001, we experienced 61 cases of giant PA, the mean size was 4.8cm. The mean follow-up period was 47 months. There were 30 cases of functioning PA and 43 of invasive adenomas. Transsphenoidal approach (TSA) was performed in 47 patients, craniotomy in 6, and a staged operation (TSA followed by craniotomy) in 8. Gross total/near total removal (over 95% removal) was performed in 9 patients (TSA in 8 and craniotomy in one) and subtotal removal (over 50% and less than 95%) in the others. Post-operative radiotherapy (RTx) was performed in thirty-six patients. Treatment results were classified as controlled and non-controlled group. Controlled group was defined as patients with no evidence of mass growth, improvement of mass effect, and endocrinological normalization. RESULTS: Tumor control was possible in 58% and mass control only was observed in 91%. Additive radiotherapy showed a significant benefit on tumor control (p=0.013) in the subtotal removal group. In patients with functioning PA, endocrinological improvement (normalization 32%) was shown in 92% (Radiotherapy, 20 cases). CONCLUSION: Total removal of giant PAs through TSA or craniotomy is not always feasible and often risky. Subtotal resection of giant PAs by TSA with or without subsequent RTx may provide a good local tumor control.
