To stydy the parameters of preload, afterload, and contractility of the heart, we evaluated 10 mitral stenosis, 5 mitral stenoinsufficiency, and 5 mitral stenosis with aortic insufficiency by measuring the external energy potential, external mechaical work, and external energy potential to PVa(Pressure-volume Area) ratio with non-invasive method, echocardiography and carotid pulse tracting. The results are summarized as follows; 1) External energy potential of mitral stenosis was significantly higher than that of MSI or MS with AI. 2) External mechanical work of MSI or MS with AI was significantly higher than that of Ms. 3) External energy potential to PVA ratio was signifiantly higher in the MS, but there was no significantly difference between the MSI and MS with AI. According to the above results, external energy potential to PVA ratio with echocardiogram and carotid pulse tracting was good parameters of preload, afterload, and contractility. And this method may used bed-side monitoring in the clinical area.

The Ilizarov technique has been used successfully in the treatment of nonunion of long bone accompanied by infection, severe bone and soft tissue defects, and deformity. We report the results of treatment of 21 cases of nonunion using the Ilizarov technique. There were 20 males and 1 female with an average age of 34.2 years (range, 8-72 years). The average follow up period was 45 months (range, 12-74months). Infected nonunion(15/21 cases) was the most common cause of nonunion. The treatment methods include simple compression method(4 cases) and internal and external bone transport method(17 cases). Bony union was achieved in 20 cases out of 21 cases. One case is still having difficulty in achieving union. The mean time to union was 7.3 months in femurs and 6.3 months in tibias. The amount of bone defect that developed after the removal of infected bone fragments and soft tissue averaged 3.8cm (range, 2.3-9cm). The healing index, in cases of bone transport, was an average of 45 days per cm (range, 30-62 days per cm). Complications developed in 17 cases out of 21 cases. Pin site infection occurred in 5 cases, premature consolidation in ~1 case, angulation deformity in 2 cases, LOM of the knee in 2 cases, equinus deformity in 2 cases, ankle stiffness in 3 cases, and nonunion in 1 case. The Ilizarov technique is thought to be effective in the treatment of complicated nonunion combined with shortening, deformity, bone defect and infection. However, in order to reduce complications caused by the Ilizarov method, accurate surgical techniques and postoperative care are necessary.

The kinetic of the distal radioulnar joint(DRUJ) is complex. Motion of DRUJ consists of rotation of the around the relatively stationary ulna, poisoning of the ulna along its longitudinal axis, and translational motion, which occurs in the antero-posterior plane. In addition to the motions described, there also exists and abduction-adduction movements, diastatic motion. The CT scan is an ideal tool for evaluation the DRUJ. Since it provides a coronal cross-sectional image of the radius and ulna. The amount of translational motion occurring at the DRUJ has hot been determined. To evaluate the normal boundaries of the motion of the DRUJ, forty DRUJ in twenty normal volunteers(10 meles, 10 females) were evaluated by use of a computed tomography technique. The results were as follows. 1. Average translational motion according to forearm rotation was 3.1mm±1.3. 2. There was no statistic difference between both sex(p>0.05). 3. There was no statistic difference between dominant and nondominant hand(p>0.05). The contralateral criterion is useful in determing wrist problem.

Hip arthrograghy is a valuable procedure for visualization of the intrinsic obstructive factors impeding closed reduction and for critical assessment of quality of reduction in developmental dislocation of the hip. The authors have analyzed 25 cases of developmentally dislocated hips in 24 patients who have been followed up for more than 1 year postoperatively by roentgenographies and arthrographies. Among them 16 cases in 16 patients who had been treated by closed reduction according to acceptable quality of initial reduction were studied to estimate a value of arthrography and to evaluate an outcome of closed rediction performed on the base of an arthrographic finding. The following results were obtained. 1. The frequency of the common arthrographic observations were assessed. Medial dye columns identifying the depth of reduction were observed 25 cases(100%), configuration of osteocartilaginous structures in 24 cases(96.0%), limbus in 24 cases(96.0%), and ligamentum teres in 18cases(75.0%). 2. Good closed reduction classified according to Race and Herring on initial arthrography was associated with rapid improvement of acetabular angle and the CE angle and low incidence of avascular necrosis, compared with adequate or poor reduction. 3. In cases of initial good and adequate reductions, initial AP arthrograms showed some dye filling shadows owing to folding or redundancy of lax joint capsule of the dislocated hip after reduction just lateral to the limbus, of which finding decreased markedly on the second arthrograms. 4. The widths of medial dye column decreased with time during the first postoperative 7 weeks by an average of 0.5mm in cases with initial good quality of reduction, 3.5mm in adequate reductions and 0.5mm in poor reductions. 5. In cases with adequate closed reduction on initial arthrogram, but without substantial decrease in width of medial dye column on the second arthogram the outcome was poor. In those cases with decrease in width of medial dye column on the second arthrogram compared with initial arthogram, the shorter the period of immobilization in a plaster cast was, the worse eventual result was. 6. We think that hip arthography is a helpful procedure for visualization of obstacle obstructing closed reduction and for determination of treatment modality in developmental dislocation of the hip.

Osteosarcoma is a malignant tumor arising from the undifferentiated fibrous tissue of bone and one of the mostcommon pirmary malignant tumors of bone. The diagnosis of osteosarcoma is based one can be diagnosed with areasonable degree of confidence from the conbination of the lesion site, age and radiological findings. This is aclinical and radiological observation of 40 cases of osteosarcoma which were experienced at Chonnam NationalUniversity Hospital, Chosum University Hospital and Kwangju Christian Hospital from 1978 to 1981. The results wereas follows; 1. The peak incidence was in the age group from 10 to 19 years in 21 cases (52.5%). 2. In sexdistribution, male group showed slightly higer incidence than in female group with the ratio of 1.35;1. 3. Themost commonly affected site was proximal tibia(35%). The lesion was found around the knee in 65% of the studiedcases. 4. Increment of the level of serum alkaline phosphase was observed in 25 cases (62.5%), and the averagevalue of serum alkaline phosphature in these cases was 5.6 Bessay Lowry units. 5. Radiographically, osteoblastictype was 14 cases (35%), and soft tissue mass shadow with calcification was observed in 34 cases (85%). 6.Cortical destruction was observed in 30 cases (75%), and soft tissue mass shadow with calcification was observedin 34 cases (85%). 7. Solid periosteal reaction, sunburst periosteal reaction and Codman's triangle were observedin 35%, 57.5% and 22.5% respectively. 8. At the first visit, lung meatastasis was found in 5 cases (12.5%) andinguinal lymphnode metastasis in 2 cases (5%)

Open reduction and internal fixation of the displaced fractures of the acetabulum represents one of the greatest challenge in fracture surgery. The purpose of our study is to report the results of operative treatment and establish the guideline for the operative treatment of the displaced acetabular fractures with the analysis of the clinical and radiological results. This retrospective study reports the results of 21 fractures in 21 patients(19 male and 3 female) treated by open reduction and internal fixation from January 1990 to July 1994. The patients were followed up more than 1 year and mean length of follow-up was 2.3 years. According to Letournel's classification, we had 9 elementary fractures(42.8%) and 12 associated fractures(57.2%). Among the elementary fractures, the posterior wall fracture was the most common type(7 cases, 33.3%) and the transverse-posterior wall fracture was the most common type among associated fractures(4 cases, 19.0%). Surgical approaches were 14 Kocher-Langenbeck, 6 Ilioinguinal and 1 extended iliofemoral. Indirect reduction and specially designed reduction method using C-arm and radiolucent operating table were also helpful to achieve satisfactory reduction. Overall quality of clinical results was graded according to the D'Aubigne and Postel rating score. Satisfactory reduction was gained in 16 cases(76.1%). Unsatisfactory reduction was gained in 5 cases(23.8%). Among the cases within category of satisfactory reduction, there were 7 excellent and 8 good clinical results. But among unsatisfactorily reduced 5 cases, there were 2 good clinical results. It seems that the satisfactory operative reduction of the fracture is the factor that correlates with a satisfactory clinical result. There were complications such as 3 secondary osteoarthritis(14.2%), 3 wound infection(14.2%, 2 superficial and 1 deep), 2 iatrogenic nerve palsy(9.5%, 1 sciatic and 1 obturator nerve) and 1 intrapelvic protrusion acetabuli(4.7%) and no postoperative ectopic ossification.
