A recurrent shoulder joint dislocation was performed on fourteen cases who were treated by modified Bristow operation from June, 1978 to April, 1981. and following results were obtained. 1. The age of initial dislocation varied from 13 years to 23 years of age with the average of 18. 6 years. 2. The age at operation varied from 20 years to 28 years of age with the average of 23 years. 3. The duration of recurrent dislocaticn varied from 2 years to 8 years with the average of 4.4 years. 4. The times of dislocation varied from 6 to 50 times with the average of 17.1 times. 5. The roentgenograms showed the Hill-Sachs' Iesion in 10cases (71.4%), subluxation in 4 cases (28.6%), and glenoid rim abnormality in 2 cases. 6. The operative findings were Bankart's lesion in II cases(78.6%), glenoid rim erosion in 2 case, and subscapularis laxity in 2 case. 7. The complication and recurrence were not observed in this period. 8. The average limitation of abduction and external rotation were 5. 7 and 12. 2 degree respectively.

Although the incidence of avascular necrosis of the pmximal end of the femur has declined by early diagnosis and gentle dynamic reduction, it is still one of the major complication in treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip. From 65 cases, followed up at least one year after reduction at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Busan National University Hospital from January, 1980 to June, 1984, the authom studied the factom causing avascular necrosis of the femoral head and its radiographic classification. The following results were obtained. 1. Based on Salter's criteria, avascular necrosis of the femoral head was considered in 16 of the 65 hips, a rate of 24.6%. 2. Based on the classification of Bucholz and Ogden, radiographic patterns of avascular necrosis were: type 1, 6(37.5%); type 2,3(18.8%); type 3, 5(31.3%); type 4, 2(12.5%). 3. Generally, the older the child when treatment was initiated, the more likely was avascular necrosis to develop, and the more severe was its damage. 4. The incidences of avascular necrosis in various treatments were: Pavlik harness, 10%; manipulative reduction, 17%; medial approach open reduction 40%; Salters innominate osteotomy only, 36%; femoral osteotomy with pelvic osteotomy, 20%. The high incidence in medial approach open reduction and Salters innominate osteotomy may be due to failure of previous manipulative reduction. 5. The preliminary traction of 14 days or more substantially reduced the incidence of avascular necrosis. 6. There was particularly high incidence of avascular necrosis in cast immobilization of Lorenz position. 7. The correlation between adductor tenotomy and avascular necrosis was not noticed. There was no avascular necrosis in the normal contralateral hip after cast immobilization.

The purpose of this study was to compare the occupational health concerns and opinions among 4 groups: workers, employers and managers, government officials, and health & safety managers. It could help establishing occupational health plans efficiently and providing the way to solve health problems in workplaces in the Inchon area. The delphi technique which is used for deciding group opinion was adopted for this study. Questionnaires regarding health problems and their priorities in the workplaces were sent to four groups three times. All items were measured by five degree ordinal scales. The four groups agreed with questionnaire items, improvement of working environment, occupational health concerns of the employers, the health concerns of workers, and measurement and analysis of working environment, as the upper five priorities for solving the occupational health problems. Besides with the first five priorities, health examinations, health education, and occupational diseases were suggested as important health problems in workplace.

Augmentation cystoplasty is effective in the rehabilitation of the contracted bladder of small capacity caused by tuberculosis or interstitial cystitis refractory to more conservative methods of management. Genitourinary tuberculosis is the most common cause of contracted bladder in Korea and it may lead to considerable vesicoureteral reflux and progressive deterioration of renal function. The use of hemi-Kock ileal pouch with an afferent intussuscepted nipple is a suitable solution in patient in whom the bladder outflow tract provides adequate resistance and supratrigonal cystectomy is to be performed with construction of an antireflux mechanism. Herein, we report 4 cases of hemi-Kock ileocystoplasty.

Lymphoproliferative disorders are among the most serious and potentially fatal complications of chronic immunosuppression in organ transplant recipients. Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is the second common malignancy occurring in patients with kidney transplantation and has a high mortality rate. The pathogenesis of PTLD in most cases appears to be related to B cell proliferation induced by infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in the setting of chronic immunosuppression. The PTLD may present a solitary tumor around the hilum of transplant kidney, but it may not by easily considered as the cause of hydronephrosis in transplant kidney because the prevalence of PTLD is low and surgical complications such as lymphocele, stricture and hematoma that obstruct the transplant ureter are much more common. Early detection is important because reduction of immunosuppressive agents may reverse progression of the disease. Furthermore, several effective treatment options were recently introduced. Here we report a case of PTLD presenting with hydronephrosis, which was completely resolved by a multimodality therapeutic approach.

Electromyogpraphic endotracheal tube (EMG tube) is a new device used to monitor recurrent laryngeal nerve integrity during thyroid surgery. The EMG tube has 2 pairs of electrodes on the surface of silicon-based tube reached to inner space of tube cuff. We experienced an unusual endotracheal tube-related problem from the distinct structural feature of the EMG tube. In this case, we intubated a patient who had difficult airway with the EMG tube using a lightwand. After successful endotracheal intubation, we could not expand the pilot balloon and ventilate the patient effectively. We removed the EMG tube and found that one of electrodes of the EMG tube is bended and made a right angle with the long axis of the tube, and perforated the tube cuff. So we report this case to make anesthesia providers aware that much more attention is needed to use EMG tube during endotracheal intubation.

A survey of intestinal parasites infection among Korean people has been carried out during July 1969 to December 1970. A total of 2,250 stool specimens (male 1,101, female 1,146) was collected from all the provinces and Seoul city in Korea. The specimens were examined routinely by direct fecal smear, zinc sulfate flotation and formalin-ether sedimentation techniques. The results are summarized as follows: Of 2,250 specimens examined, l,803(80.l per cent) were positive for intestinal parasites. The positive rates of intestinal helminths were 1,644(73.1 per cent) among 2,250; Ascaris lumbricoides 46.0 per cent, Trichocephalus trichiurus 46.8 percent, hookworm 6.8 per cent, Trichostrongylus orientalis 7.0 percent, Clonorchis sinensis 12.1 percent, Enterobius vermicularis 1.6 per cent, Hymenolepis nana 0.7 percent, Taenia species 0.3 per cent, Metagonimus yokogawai 0.04 percent, Fasciolidae 0.04 per cent and one case of lung fluke Paragonimu westermani. The positive rstes of intestinal protozoa were 786(34.9 per cent); Entamoeba histolytica 6.4 per cent, Entamoeba coli 20.5 percent, Endolimax nana 10.0 per cent, Giardia lamblia 5.1 per cent, Trichomonas hominis 1.1 percent, Chilomastix mesnili 0.5 percent, Iodamoeba butschlii 0.6 percent, Enteromonas hominis 0.7 percent, Dientamoeba fragilis 0.1 per cent and one case of Isospora hominis. Sexual distribution of helminths and protozoan infections showed higher rate in female than that of male, except C. sinensis, H. nana, Taenia species or G. lamblia Infections of T. trichiurus, hookworm, T. orientalis, C. sinensis, Taenia species, E. histolytica, E. coli and E. nana increased with age. Conversely, H. nana and G. lamblia infections were more predominent in younger ages.

Ninety two strains of Streptococcus pyogenes were isolated from patients with pharyngitis, scarlet fever, skin infection, and invasive streptococcal infections in Seoul, Korea from January to December, 1998. All isolates were epidemiologically characterized by T protein serotype, and serum opacity factor (OF) detection to phenotypes. To analyze the genetic relationship, fifty two isolates including 32 erythromycin-clindamycin (Em-Cm) resistant strains, 20 antimicrobial susceptible strains were attempted to the pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). T protein serotype showed 16 kinds in distribution including T12 and T4. Among the total isolates, 40 strains (43.5%) belonged to the T12 serotype and twenty strains (21.7%) to T4 serotype. On the other hand, when infection aspect of S. pyogenes isolates were analysed by T serotype distribution, T12 type was predominant for pharyngitidis which contributed to 21 strains (53%) and for skin infection isolates which contributed to 11 strains (28%), respectively. In case of T4 type, it was the most predominant pharyngitidis isolates which contributed to 8 strains (40%). In T serotype distribution of Em-Cm resistant strains, 27 strains (84%) of the thirty two showed T12 serotype. In minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of Em-Cm resistance isolates, thirty two isolates showed resistant to erythromycin 27 strains (84%), had high MIC of >128 mug/ml. And also to clindamycin, twenty two strains (69%) had high MIC of >128 mug/ml. When OF detection of Em-Cm resistance of S. pyogenes isolates were analyzed by T serotype distribution, T12 serotype isolates revealed that all of the isolates except one strain were OF negative. In PFGE profile analysis to Em-Cm resistance isolates, of the twenty seven, Em-Cm resistance of T12 serotype isolates, 26 strains showed identical PFGE profile and all of these isolates revealed that OF negative. Eighty four percent of Em-Cm resistance S. pyogenes isolates had identical phenotype and PFGE profile. These results strongly suggested that the Em-Cm resistant S. pyogenes isolates from Seoul area showed close genetic correlation and PFGE could be available tool for molecular epidemiology.
