1.Total Hip Replacement in Painful Stiff and Deformed Hips
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1984;19(3):591-598
Total hip replacement is an available rnethod of treatment for various causes of disabled hips in adults, especially in painful stiff hips. In many cases, malposition has led to degenrative changes in the opposite hip, the lumbar spine or knee, often with severe loss of function due to pain. Between March, 1979 and February, 1983, twenty hips in sixteen patients with painful and deformed hips were operated at Kosin Medical College, and we obtained relif of pain and increase of range of motion of the hip joints. Furthermore we found relife of adjacent joint pain in several cases, and in addition correction of inequality of leg lenght.

To evaluate the features of pyuria related to the bacteriuria, 140subjects were studied from Jan. 1987 to Dec. 1987. They pyuria was frequently developed from the age 30 to 60 years old, and male to female ratio was 1:1.41. The most common disease was urethrocystitis that was shown 42.8%. Common precipitating factors were urethral catheterization (25%) and urinary tract obstruction (11.4%). Through the observation, symptomatic pyuric patients were 66 subjects (47.1%), and the subjects with significant urine culture were 121 subjects (86.4%). In the urine culture, the most common bacteria was E. coli (41.4%), and the next was Pseudomonas (19.3%). A large percentage of E. coli and Pseudomonas was susceptible of amikin. The pyuria due to S. epidermidis and Accinatobacter was well treated. High therapeutic rate was observed in the acute pyelonephritis (71%) and urethrocystitis (67%). In the persistent urinary tract infection, there were relapsing (22 cases) and recurrent urinary tract infection (16 cases).

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to assess the usefulness of dynamic MR imaging after contrast enhancement with Gd-DTPA in the differential diagnosis of hepatic focal lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The population consists of 22 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma, 44 cases of hemangioma, and five cases of metastasis. Diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma was made by surgery, fine needle biopsy, ultrasonography, CT and conventional angiography. Hemangioma was diagnosed on the basis of ultrasonography, CT, conventional spin-echo MRI and clinical data. Diagnosis of metastasis was done by fine needle aspiration biopsy. Dynamic and delayed images were obtained using 1.5T superconductive magnetom after Gd-DTPA(0.1mmol/kg) intravenous injection. Quantitative and qualitative evaluation was done for each lesion. RESULTS: Early contrast enhancement with rapid or gradual washout was noted in 15 lesions of hepatocellular carcinoma(68.2%) ;on the delayed images, no contrast enhancement was noted in 18 lesions(81. 8%). Peripheral contrast enhancement pattern was predominantly(86.4%) observed in hemangiomas during dynamic phase. On the delayed images, homogeneous and persistent contrast enhancement of masses were noted in all hemangiomas. Characteristic centripetal fill-in pattern was observed in 32 lesions of hemangioma (72.7%). Contrast inversion of masses during contrast enhancement study was noted in all hemangiomas, while continuous negative contrast was noted in hepatocellular carcinomas and metastases. CONCLUSION: Dynamic MR imaging after contrast enhancement with Gd-DTPA is an useful method in the differential diagnosis of hepatic focal lesions.

PURPOSE: We performed this study to evaluate the usefulness and the limitation of magnetic resonance angiography in imaging portal vein and hepatic vein. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Magnetic resonance portography was performed in five normal subjects and seven patients with hepatomas, two patients with Budd-Chiari syndromes, one patient with liver cirrhosis and one patient with hepatic metastasis from stomach cancer. Magnetic resonance angiography was done with a 1.5-T Scanner. Breath-hold two-dimensional time-of flight images with spoiled gradient echo technique were acquired. Scan parameters were 34/8/40degrees(TR ms/TE ms/flip angle). The portal vein and the hepatic vein were selectively imaged by applying two presaturation bands. These images were then postprocessed by a maximum intensity projection algorithm. MRA findings were compared with ultrasonography in all cases of the hepatic disease, and conventional angiography (SMA portography) in four cases. RESULTS: In normal subjects, the splenic vein, intrahepatic and extrahepatic portions of the portal vein, and the hepatic veins were well visualized. In the patients with hepatic diseases, the varices (4 cases), the splenorenal shunts (2 cases), and the recanalized umbilical vein (1 case) were demonstrated. There were portal vein thrombosis in the cases of hepatomas and hepatic metastasis. In the cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome, the hepatic veins were not visualized and there were inferior vena cava obstructions with multiple collateral vessels. CONCLUSION: Compared with ultrasonography, MRP may be useful in evaluation of varices, splenorenal shunts, and other collaterals, though less accurate than conventional angiography. MRP can be useful as a noninvasive screening alternative in the evaluation of portal vein and hepatic veins.

6.A Clinical Observation on Disease of Pediatric Urology.
Korean Journal of Urology 1980;21(6):596-602
A clinical observation was made on the pediatric patients (under 15 years old) who had been admitted to the Department of Urology, Chungnam National University Hospita1, during the 6 year period from March. 1974 to February, 1980. The results were as follows: 1. During the period, pediatric in-patients were 101 of 825 total urologic in-patients giving a ratio of 12.2%. 2. The proportion of male to female pediatric in-patient was 6:8:1. 3. The school children(6 to 12 years of age) were most frequently seen and giving a rate of 49.5% of pediatric in-patients. 4. The most common disease was genitourinary anomaly giving a ratio of 45.5%. The hydrocele was 22.8%, genitourinary injury 11.9%, tumor 7.9%, renal tuberculosis 2% and others 9.9% 5. The most frequently involved organ was testis and scrotum giving a ratio of 52.4%, followed by urethra 21.8%, kidney 16.8% and bladder 5.0%. 6. Among 86 of 101 cases, 103 operations were performed. The most common operation was hydrocelectomy in 23 cases. The other operations were orchiopexy in 22 cases. chordectomy in 11 cases, urethroplasty in 11 cases, nephrectomy in 7 cases, hernioplasty in 6 cases and others. 7. The most common duration of hospital stay was from 1 to 2 weeks(55.4%).

Viru-Merz® ointment,1% tromantadine hydrochloride, is a topical antiviral agent used for recurrent herpes simplex. There are many reported cases of contact dermatitis by tromantadine.But erythema multiforme-like eruptions in association with Viru-Merz® Ointment has not been reported. A 31-year-old woman, who applied Viru-Merz® ointment for a recurrent herpes simplex labialis, developed an allergic contact dermatitis. Erythema multiforme like eruptions with typical target feature followed around the eczematous lesions on the face, and spread progressively on the neck and trunk. A patch test revealed positive reaction to Viru-Merz® ointment.

Primary malignant lymphoma of the appendix is an unconnnon neoplasm although the gastrointestinal tract is the most common extranodal site of malignant lymphoma. We report a case of primary malignant lymphoma of the appendix in a 54-year-old male, who presented with pain in the right lower abdomen. An appendectomy was performed. The appendix measured 9.5 cm in length and 5.5 cm in diameter. Cut sections showed a solitary circumferential mass in the appendiceal lumen. Light microscopic features were compatible with malignant lymphoma of diffuse large cell type(Working Formulation) and the immunophenotype was B cell type.

We report a case of primary osteosarcoma of the breast which is rare and exhibits poor prognosis. A 52 years-old-woman was admitted with rapidly growing right mammary mass. A huge lobulated dense mass with speckled calcifications, suggesting malignancy, was observed on mammography. She underwent a radical mastectomy. Grossly, the mass measured 16 14 6 cm and showed grayish white hard lobulated tissue with focal hemorrhage and necrosis. Light microscopically, the tumor was confirmed as an osteosarcoma devoid of any epithelial components. In postoperative whole body bone scan, there was no evidence of the other malignancy. To the best of our knowledge, the present case is the first report of primary osteosarcoma of the breast in Korea.
