OBJECTIVE: We report here on two cases of pseudoaneurysms that were diagnosed using computed tomographic angiography (CTA), with one arising in the superficial temporal artery and the other arising in the occipital artery. METHODS: Case 1: A 29-year-old man presented with a slow growing, pulsatile mass on the left side of his forehead following a blow from a fist 10 days earlier. CTA revealed an 11 x 8 x 11-mm oval pseudoaneurysm arising from the frontal branch of the left superficial temporal artery. Case 2 : A 36-year-old man presented with a pulsatile mass in the right suboccipital region that had been present for the past year. He had no history of direct trauma. CTA revealed a 15 x 8 x 13-mm oval dye-filled sac arising from the right occipital artery. RESULTS: Based on the CTA images, the parent arteries were exposed and ligated proximally and distally to the pseudoaneurysms and then they were completely excised. CONCLUSION: CTA is a minimally invasive technique for making the diagnosis of scalp pseudoaneurysms and CTA is also useful for the preoperative planning.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the silicone ring pessary in the management of pelvic organ prolapse. METHODS: This study was evaluated for the clinical analysis of 58 pelvic organ prolapse patients who visited our hospital and weared silicone ring pessary from January 1997, to December 1998. RESULTS: Among 58 patients, failure rate was 13.7%(8/58) and complication rate was 50%(29/58). Main causes of failure were vaginal ulcer(4 cases) and recurrent falling out of pessary(3 cases). Most common problems were recurrent falling out of pessary(10 cases) and vaginal erosion with or without ulcer(9 cases), vaginitis(6 cases). There was no significant difference of failure rates and complication rates between hysterectomized patients and the non-hysterectomized patients. CONCLUSION: In management of pelvic organ prolapse which unsuitable for operation, pessary is noninvasive, simple and effective alternative method.

The isomorphic response of Koebner is a well-known phenomenon commonly associated with psoriafsis, but it has been also descrilbed in conjunction with a host of other disordered. We described five cases of erythema multiforme showing lesions of easily recognizsble Koebnei phenomena. Traumas to the skin do not cause erythema multiforme, however when a patient is in an active stage of the disease, physieal factor such as traumas occuring in normsl daly-life may contribute to the distribution of skin lesions as have been seen in our patients ; clinicians should aware of this point for better understanding of clinical features in erythema multiforme.

There have been several reports that total knee arthroplasty(TKA) was most likely to survive successfully if the coronal tibiofemoral angle was close to 7 degree of valgus, the accepted normal. In order to know whether the postoperative coronal tibiofemoral angle influences the result of total knee arthroplasty, we examined the 152 TKA cases in 106 patients which had been performed at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital from Jan. 1987 to Dec. 1991. In our series the average follow-up period was 31 months(range, 13 months to 75 months). Coronal tibiofemoral angles of all cases were checked on weight bearing anteroposterior plain X-rays and were divided into three groups(less than valgus 2° ; valgus 3° to 7° ; greater than valgus 8°). All cases were analyzed on the knee score of Hospital for Special Surgery and the American Knee Society total knee arthroplasty roentgenographic evaluation and scoring system and the cases with radiolucent lines wider than 2mm were checked. Three groups were analyzed comparatively with statistical means(Wilcoxon signed rank test, X² test). There were no significant differences in the clinical results of total knee arthroplasty according to the postoperative coronal tibiofemoral angle. Lateral subluxation of the patella occurred more frequently when the postoperative coronal tibiofemoral angle was above valgus 8°. In the tibial components of group lesser than valgus 2°, the frequency of radiolucent lines wider than 2mm was higher than those of other groups, but its significance should be examined through long term follow-up.
