Congenital agenesis of the right lobe of liver is a rare anomaly and only 33 cases have been reported. CT showed absence of the right lobe of liver and compensatory hypertrophy of the other lobe. We report the CT findings of a new case of this anomaly with a review of the literatures.

A study on branching patterns of middle hepatic artery was performed in 109 patients with A-P and oblique view hepatic angiogram, which refered to size and location of quadrate lobe in CT and SMA portography We could analyze the branching patterns of middle hepatic artery (MHA) in 100 among the 109 patients. MHA arising as a first branch of left hepatic artery was the most common pattern (50%), and MHA arising from proper hepatic artery separately one from left hepatic artery was the next common pattern (35%). MHA originating from left gastric artery, or from anterior or posterior of the right hepatic artery was seen. MHA WAS not found as an accessory or replaced artery except as replaced common hepatic artery.

Subcutaneous angiolymphoid hyperplasia is an uncommon disease characterized by eosinophilia, proliferation of the capillary vessels and lymphoid tissue and infiltration of the inflammatory cell, especially eosinophils. The etiology of the disease are obscure, but probably trauma, lower grade infection, nervous factor & hormonal status etc. The predilection sites are face, ears, scalf & neck, but rarely reported in the extremities. We experienced a case of subcutaneous angiolymphoid hyperplasia of the inguinal region and anteromedial side of the proximal thigh in a 10 year-old man who complained pain and tenderness on the above region. The patient was treated by excision with satisfactory result.

7.Diagnosis in Head Injury.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1993;22(7):787-798
Before the 1970s there was no way to quantify the severity of head injury in groups of patients, but over the last two decades, medical care of the head-injured patient has evolved to a level at which clinical management decisions are based on actual measurement of relevant physiological variables and application of sound scientific principles. One of the most important reasons of such a progress is developments in medical technology. The technology has developed in a manner that now allows improved imaging of the brain as well as accurate measurement of variables such as intracranial pressure, cerebral blood flow, and brain electrical activity, all of which combine to greatly enhance the clinician's ability to monitor the injured brain. The author can not provide all the informations of advances that have taken place, or a comprehensive description of state-of-the-art technology hear, because of limited spaces. It is only hoped that this paper would afford a useful reference for those seeking newer concepts in diagnosis of head injury.

8.Clinical Value of Glasgow Coma Scale: The First Ten Years.

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1988;17(5):919-928
Since Teasdale and Jennet published a method that had been evolved in Glasgow for assessing the so-called "conscious level" in 1974, the method has undergone extensive evaluation, has been adapted widely and has come to be known as the "Glasgow Coma Scale". However some investigators raised a question about interpretation of the scale in argument, particularly in terms of analysis of prognosis. It may be indispensable for clinicians and investigators to come to an agreement in interpretation of each other's investigational result with the same idea about "Glasgow Coma Scale". So the authors now review some of the factors that contributed to the design of the scale, how it has withstood the test of both scientific study and practical usage, and also to set into context its offspring, the "Glasgow Coma Scale".

Chlamydia trachomatis is known as a major causative microorganism in non-gonococcal urethritis(NGU) in men. We examined two kinds of specimens simultaneously, endourethral swab and urine, in each patient to determine the reliability of these two different specimens for the detection of the Chlamydia trachomatis antigen in male NGU patients using ELISA method. Tota1 273 patients entered this study were divided into two groups according to sampling order of urine and endourethral swab. In group A(141 patients), we took endourethral swab first, then first portion of voided urine was caught. In group B(132 patients), endourethral swab was performed after urine sampling. Twenty five out of 273 patients(9.2%) showed Chlamydia trachomatis antigen positive in endourethral swab sample and 1 out of 273 patients(0.4%) was positive in urine sample. There was no significant difference of antigen positive rate of endourethral swab examination between group A and group B. Our data suggest that examination of endourethral swab is more reliable method for the detection of the Chlamydia trachomatis antigen than urine examination in male NGU patient.

10.Total Disc Replacement in Lumbar Degenerative Disc Diseases.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 2015;58(5):401-411
More than 10 years have passed since lumbar total disc replacement (LTDR) was introduced for the first time to the world market for the surgical management of lumbar degenerative disc disease (DDD). It seems like the right time to sum up the relevant results in order to understand where LTDR stands on now, and is heading forward to. The pathogenesis of DDD has been currently settled, but diagnosis and managements are still controversial. Fusion is recognized as golden standard of surgical managements but has various kinds of shortcomings. Lately, LTDR has been expected to replace fusion surgery. A great deal of LTDR reports has come out. Among them, more than 5-year follow-up prospective randomized controlled studies including USA IDE trials were expected to elucidate whether for LTDR to have therapeutic benefit compared to fusion. The results of these studies revealed that LTDR was not inferior to fusion. Most of clinical studies dealing with LTDR revealed that there was no strong evidence for preventive effect of LTDR against symptomatic degenerative changes of adjacent segment disease. LTDR does not have shortcomings associated with fusion. However, it has a potentiality of the new complications to occur, which surgeons have never experienced in fusion surgeries. Consequently, longer follow-up should be necessary as yet to confirm the maintenance of improved surgical outcome and to observe any very late complications. LTDR still may get a chance to establish itself as a substitute of fusion both nominally and virtually if it eases the concerns listed above.
