Rhabdomyosarcoma is a very rare case in urological field. We have experienced a case of rbabdomyosarcoma originating from the prostate. So we present this case report with the article review.

Bromidrosis is a disorder characterized by rancid body odor which influences a patient's social life and mental health. The therapeutic modalities and the mechanism of bromidrosis have been carefully studied, however, there have been few reports about the genetic inheritance of bromidrosis. We investigated the family history of 42 patients who were operated on for bromidrosis and followed up to the third generation in 10 cases. The results were as follows: Results of investigation which were followed up the second generation. The fathers of five patients and the mothers of 11 patients had bromidrosis in 18 male patients. The fathers of six patients and the mothers of 12 patients had bromidrosis in 24 female patients. Thirty-four patient (81.0%) among a total of 42 have a single parent with bromidrosis. Result of investigation which were followed up to the third generation Bromidrosis was occurred in 17 of 42 patients (40.5%) in the second generation, and 18 of 27 patients (66.7%) in the third generation. In one case, a father transmitted bromidrosis to his three sons, and as a result, X-linked inheritance could be ruled out Bromidrosis was not skipped in every generation of all families. We on conclude that bromidrosis is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder.

Vesicovaginal fistula is a uncommon status in the developed countries. In the past it was mostly by obstetric causes. But now a days, posthysterectomy fistulas are seen. Fistula is a discomfort to the patient because of urine leakage, odor, and its inconvenience. We have experienced one case of fistula after abdominal hysterectomy and have repaired it by Latzko partial colpocleisis. So we report a case with some references.

This paper describes the incidence and some epidemiological features of drowning accident out of a series of our study on the epidemiology of various accidents in Korea. By the daily press it is apparent from the frequent reporting of swimming accidents that the incidence would be high. In the rural areas, there are, at present about 1,250 artificial lakes and farm ponds to be utilized for rice production. The reservoirs, irrigation ditches and riversides are also used for recreation. In most places facilities for aquatic activities is meager, and safety measures for the prevention of drowning is not sufficiently enforced. In the survey crude data on drowning were collected from the concerned governmental statistic books for the period 1955 to 1967 which were compiled not in a uniform way. Drowning were classified into two categories, one is accidental drowning, E929 and the other is due to cataclysm, E934, according to the WHO international classification of diseases. Epidemiological variables in relation to drowning accident were obtained through qualitative analysis of informations from the popular newspapers. The following summary may be drawn; 1. The average number of deaths due to accidental drowning totaled 1,088 annually and the mortality rate per 100,000 population was 3.4. The 42.0% of all drowning were rescued and the remaining were not saved. 2. The sex ration(M/F) of the victims for all ages was 5 to 1, which had a wide range of difference among the age groups. The young ages less than 20 years occupied 68.0% of all deaths. 3. The percentage distribution of the causes of accidents revealed 31.9% for careless swimming, 45.5% for unskilled, 16.6% for swimmer's cramp and 6.0% for drunken. The distribution of places where accidents occurred showed 88.0% for rivers, water reservoirs, irrigation ditches and 12.0% for regular swimming pools. The seasonal distribution of cases indicated 85.0% of the total were seen during the summer months, June-August, and 50.0% of them occurred on Sundays. 4. The average annual deaths due to cataclysm were 402 and mortality rate per 100,000 population was 1.6, but the number of victims due to cataclysm varied greatly each year. 5. The accident cases due to cataclysm were classified into 60.0% for injuries, 40.0% for deaths. The 26.8% of all deaths were missing cases. 6. The deaths due to either accidental drowning or cataclysm totaled 1,490, and the death rate per 100,000 for the whole country was 5.0.

MR arthrography is a useful modality for evaluating the labrocapsular ligamentous complex (LCLC) of the shoulder. This study was performed to describe normal anatomic variations and pitfalls in image interpretation related to evaluation of the LCLC. MR arthrogram of 56 shoulders in 41 asymptomatic young, active, male volunteers were prospectively reviewed to evaluate the labral shapes, capsular insertions and images which may mimic the lesions of glenohumeral instability. The anterior and posterior parts of the labra, respectively, varied in shape: triangular (72%,36%), round (13%,35%), cleaved (8%,1%), notched (2%,0%), flat (5%,24%), and absent (0%,4%). The anterior and posterior capsular insertions, respectively, varied in site: Mosely and Oevergaard type I (82%,62%), type II (13%,36%), and type III (5%2%). A number of pitfalls in image interpretation were discovered. Articular cartilage undercutting the labrum (29%) and middle glenohumoral ligament in proximity to anterior labrum (5%) simulated a labral tear. Joint fluid interposed in the central, superior portion of the sublabral sulci (25%) simulated a SLAP lesion. Synovial fold (38%) in the axillary pouch resembled a loose body. Knowledge of normal variations and pitfalls in MR arthrogram image interpretation of labral-capsular-ligamentous complex will help the orthopedist to accurately detect debilitating derangements associated with the glenohumeral instability.
