A study was made of 234 patients with carcinoma of the cervix seen during the period from Aug.-1959 to Dec.-1963, who had come to the Departments of Obstetric and Gynecology of Yonsei Medical Hospital. Intravenous pyelogram, cystoscopy, and urine examination were done and N. P, N. was checked in addition to clinical examination before treatment. Intravenous pyelogram were classified into 1. Non-functioning 2. Hydronephrosis 3. Hydroureter as abnormalities Also cystoscopic finding were classified into 1. Elevation of bladder wall 2. Bullous edema 3. Neoplasm invasion. There were 51 patients who showed abnormality of intravenous pyelogram among the 234 patients with carcinoma of cervix, that was a unilateral abnormality in 38 cases and bilateral in 13 cases. Again, among 24(10.26%) non-functioning kidney in this series the left kidney was affected in 11 cases and right kidney in 6 cases. The 125 of 234 patients showed elevation of bladder wall in cystoscopic finding, and the posterior wall of bladder was elevated similarly in all stages. The urological study of patients with carcinoma of cervix are most essential works in addition to clinical examination, and it should be considered as a systemic disease for all physician especially gynecologist, radiologist, and urologist.

A case of primary lymphosarcoma of the prostate gland proved by Silvermann needle biopsy was presented. Lymphosarcoma of the prostate is a rare condition, and only 23 cases have been reported in medical literature. In Culver's series, 74 per cent were sarcoma of fibrous origin (round cell, spindle cell sarcoma, myxosarcoma), 5 per cent rhabdomyosarcoma, 6 per cent lymphosarcoma, and 10 percent pleuriplastic or un-or de-differentiated sarcoma. A large tumor of the prostate, which is not hard and nodule occurs in a middle aged patient, should be considered of lymphosarcoma of the prostate. A case of lymphosarcoma of the prostate is added to the literature.

A cyst of seminal vesicle is rare condition, and only 12 cases have been reported in the literature. Complaint of no ejaculation with or without urinary symptoms in married man should arouse suspension of seminal vesicle cyst which results from atresia of ejaculatory duct due to long standing infection of urethra. The diagnosis was made by rectal examination, cystoscopic study, seminal vesiculogram and microscopic examination of the cystic fluid with contained many spermatozoa. We reported a case of cyst of seminal vesicle in a 33 year-old male and reviewed the literature.

We have observed a case of the paragenimiasis involving epididymis which was complicated a part of systemic infection. The patient has complained painless nodular moderately hard mass in the right testicle and had a history of the raw crayfish ingestion during the course of measles. This was proved by the microscopic evidence which showed the granulomatoue lesion with round cell infiltration and necrotic debris and scattered eggs of the Paragonimus Westermani, also the adult worm was seen in the cystic space.

We have proved the alternating type of true hermapbroditism by the microscopic evidence of both ovarian and testicular tissues. The sex was reassigned the male with concerning of sex of assignment and rearing. gender roles and orientation, the morphology of external genitalia and injurious psychological sequelae. We had then considerable effect in the use of Testosterone.

Epidemiological and statistical observations were made of fire hazards that occurred during the past 18 years, 1948 to 1965. Injury and mortality rates for all ages were computed chronologically. For the years of 1955, 1961 and 1965, all fire accidents were epidemiologically analysed to draw characteristic pattern in relation to the seasonal and 24 hour distribution, causes and sites of accidents etc.. Fire hazards observed herein are the categorys E 916 of the International Classification of Causes of Death, 1955, and includes all accidents caused by fire and explosion of combustible materials. The following conclusion was made: 1. The average umber of annual deaths due to fire was 183 and the number of the injured due to the same cause was 335. The mortality rate per 100,000 population was 0.8 and the ratio of injures per death was 1.8. 2. The casualty rate including both the dead and injured was 5.0 per 100,000 in Seoul, the highest among the provinces and followed by 3.4 in Cheju-Do, 2.1 in Kangwon-Do, 1.7 in Kyunggi-Do accordingly. The other provinces had a range of 0.6 to 1.2. 3. The monthly distribution of fire accidents showed that the winter months, December through February, had more frequent accidents, while the summer season, June through August had less. The 24 hour distribution of accidents showed more cases from 12:00 to 18:00 and less from 4:00 to 10:00 hours. 4. The per cent distribution of causes of accidents showed; 90.0% for careless, 10.0% for arson. The cause of carelessness was further breakdown into; 15.0% for kitchen fire places, 13.8% for fire playing, 9.4% for electrical heating and wires, 8.3% for fuels, 6.3% for matches, 5.2% for ash dumps and the remaining for others. 5. The accidents as classified by place revealed that 56.8% of the total occurred at the common dwelling houses, 11.3 at various industrial workshops, 9.3% at the street shops and the remaining at the miscellaneous places.

Recently, primary ureteral tumors are more frequently reported in urological field even though considered as rare. We have observed a case of primary ureteral tumor confirmed with the cystoscopy and retrograde pyeloureterogram. Choice of operation is nephro-ureterectomy with removal of a cuff of bladder wall around the ureteral orifice. It is necessary for a physician to make the early diagnosis and removal of the tumor as soon as possible.

Eight cases of ureteral stricture were investigated clinically from Nov. 1961 to Sept. 1966. 1) The rate of ureteral stricture to total admission patients was 2.2% during the same period. 2) These cases were classified on the basis of the biopsy, operation finding and past history. Congenital origin: 5 cases Acquired origin: 2 cases Idiopathic: 1 case 3) The sites of strictures Ureteropelvic junction: 6 cases Body of ureter: 1 case Ureterovesical junction: 1 case 4) The most frequent symptoms and signs were flank pain and tenderness (6 cases), hematuria <4 cases) and vague gastrointestinal symptoms (4 cases) 5) In spite of many kind of urological studies, we encountereddiagnostic error, such as tuberculosis, radioluscent stone and renal tumor except2 cases because of it's protein charactor.
