Left ventricular free wall rupture following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the second most common cause of death and has been reported to be responsible for 4 to 24% of all infarction deaths. The rupture occurs anywhere from a few hours to several days after AMI. The common findings of ventricular rupture are persistent chest pain bradycardia and shock. This may be often mistaken for the ruptured dissection of the ascending aorta. The different points from dissection are 1) persistent chest pain 2)persistent ST segment elevation and 3) only intramural hematoma in ascending aorta. We have sucessfully managed two patients with postinfarction myocardial rupture. Surgical management consisted of infarctectomy repairi of the ventricular rupture and coronay artery bypass grafting. We conclude that successful surgical management of ventricular free wall rupture should require prompt diagnosis and emergency operation.

In this prospective study, 208 cases of ptosis were repaired using dried preserved fascia lata as suspension material for frontalis sling procedure during 1990 to 1996. The average age at operation was 9.2 years with the range of 2 months to 56 years. One hundred forty one patients (91.0%) of the 155 patients with follow-up of more than 3 months and 99 (90.8%) of the 109 patients with follow-up of more than 6 months showed satisfactory results respectively. Among 12 unsatisfactory cases six patients underwent reoperation and achieved satisfactory results. Exposure keratitis was the most common complication (39.4%)but most of them were transient. The authors report frontalis sling operation using preserved fascia lata with 96.3% of success rate with few complications.

We presented several cases of the exophthalmos due to the orbital tumors, with the review of the literatures. We performed modified Kronlein operation and anterior orbitotomy, appropriately for each cases to improve the visual acuity and at least to correct cosmetically the proptosed eye. It will be better to do one's best in order to search a possible way to save the eye ball by which the ophthalmologist can remove the orbital tumor even if the patient lost his vision.

BACKGROUND: The cross-matching test is regarded as an essential pre-transfusion test. It serves an important role in confirming the ABO/Rh compatibility of transfusion and screening for possible unexpected antibodies. We evaluated cross-matching tests in QWALYS-3 (DIAGAST, Loos Cedex, France), comparing the automated process to manual tube methods. METHODS: A total of 545 crossmatching tests from 169 patients, collected from RBC concentrate transfusion orders, were performed using both QWALYS-3 and manual tube methods. All patients were follow-up tested later on with antibody identification tests to confirm the presence of unexpected antibodies in plasma. RESULTS: None of the samples were ABO/Rh incompatible. The presence of unexpected antibodies was later confirmed in 277 tests in 56 patients. Out of those 277 tests, the concordance rate between two methods was 83.8% (232/277). In 268 tests which were later confirmed with no unexpected antibodies, manual tube methods did not show any positive results while five tests were false-positive (5/268, 1.9%) only in QWALYS-3. The overall concordance rate between two methods was 90.82%, and the kappa coefficient was 0.696 (P<0.05) (n=545). CONCLUSION: The QWALYS-3 system has its merits in accuracy, precision, and lack of possible human errors, however, the automated procedure showed some disadvantages, including relatively low cost-and-time-effectiveness, less effective cold antibody detection, and difficulties in handling small quantity samples. Thus, the QWALYS-3 system has meaningful, but only a limited value in the automation of routine cross-matching tests.

PURPOSE: Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma is rarely encountered in the lower eyelids. We report a patient with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma arising from the lower eyelid. METHODS: A 39-year-old man presented with a relatively fast growing mass on the center of his left lower eyelid for one month. The mass did not respond to local injection of triamcinolone at a local clinic. The lesion appeared as a solitary reddish nodule with ulceration, was non-tender, round, crusted, and measured 13 mm x 11 mm x 5 mm. Well- developed superficial vessels were found on the surface of the nodule. An incisional biopsy was performed. RESULTS: Histologic examination revealed that the bulk of the infiltrate was in the papillary and reticular dermis. Tumor cells had abundant, well-defined cytoplasm and pleomorphic nuclei with multiple nucleoli. The majority of the neoplastic cells showed immunoreactivity for CD 30 (Ki-1) along the cell membrane. A histopathological diagnosis of primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma was made. CONCLUSIONS: Most cases of primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma arise from the body and extremities. However, since primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma may occur in the eyelid, it should be differentiated from nodular and relatively fast growing inflammatory tumors despite local steroid treatment.

Verrucous carcinoma is a low-grade squamous cell carcinoma. It usually occurs in the oral cavity, genital or palmoplantar area. A 55-year-old woman presented with an asymptomatic, erythematous, round, hyperkeratotic nodule, of 0.8cm in diameter, on the left cheek. A skin biopsy revealed a typical verrucous carcinoma. We report herein an unusual case of verrucous carcinoma occurring on the face.
