Rupture of anterior communicating artery aneurysm is one of the most important casuses of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Subarachnoid hemorrhage due to ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm shows characteristic CT findings, such as forntal hematoma or septum pellucidum hematoma. In some patients with the ruptured aneurysm, direct carotid angiography may be needed. particularly when transfemoral approach is not possible. However, not much have been known about the puncture site selection between the two carotid arteries in relation to the location of hematoma in CT scans. To determine the ideal puncture site of the direct carotid angiography, seventy-five cases of anterior communicating artery aneurysm confirmed by operation from May 1988 to April 1992, were analyzed in terms of relationship between location of hematoma on CT, direction of aneurysm and A1 artery on angiograms. Frontal lobar hematoma was more prevalent than septal hematoma, and was more common on the right side. In cases of lobar hematoma, aneurysm was directed to the ipsilateral side of the hematoma (67%) and was most commonly fed by contralateral A1 artery(75%). Septal bematoma consisted 36% of the cases and among there, midline directed aneurysm was most common, frequently fed by left A1 artery. In conclusion, when performing direct carotid angiography in patients with anterior communicating artery aneurysm, if forntal hematoma is observed on CT, it may be beneficial to puncture contralateral carotid artery. Meanwhile, if hemorrhage of septum pellucidum is observed, it may be better to puncture left carotid artery.

Based on the theory that benign prostatic hypertrophy may be induced by androgenic effect of testosterone derivatives, especially 5-alpha - dihydrotestosterone, on prostatic tissue, Chlormadinone acetate(CMA), potent oral synthetic antiandrogen was investigated in the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy. Twenty-two patients of prostatic hypertrophy were studied over six months period with a special reference to uroflowmetry and following results were obtained : 1) Chlormadinone acetate induced improvement of obstructive urinary symptoms in terms of uroflowmetric measurement. 2) It is very worthwhile to initiate medical treatment before undergoing any surgical intervention or when surgery is contraindicated.

We present a case of familial benign chronic pemphigus in 50-year-old male patient who had had recurrent oozing, macerated and eroded skin lesions on the groin and scrotum for 20 years. At first, we diagnosed his case as scrotal eczema and/or intertrigo, but after repeated recurrance, it was confirmed as above disease by characteristic histopathologic findings.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma occurs most commonly in the salivary glands, and also has been recognized in numerous other locations. However, it is rarely found in the prostate. We report a case of adenoid cystic c arcinoma of the prostate in a 77-year-old man whose chief complaint was urinary retention. Digital rectal examination transrectal ultrasonography revealed a markedly enlarged prostated and PSA was 4.6ng/ml. The transurethral prostatectomy was performed and the histopathological diagnosis was the adenoid cystic carcinoma. We review the clinical and pathologic feature of this disease.

Puraotix-C(0.1% Clocortolone Picalats Cream) is a new di-halogenated topical corticosteroid, and used in trial for treating several kinds of dermatoses. We treated 30 patients with Purantix-C who had one of the following dermatoses; atopic dermatitis, neurodermatitis, pustulosis palmaris et plantsris, seborrheic dermatitis, pityriasis rosea, nummular eczema, psoriasis vulgaris, pruritus ani and pompolyx. Among these 30 patients, Purantix-C showed excellent or good result (66.7%) either unoccluded or occluded application, 2~3 times daily for 7~10 days. Comparing with Lidex(0.05% fluorocinonide cream) and purantix-C, both of them had similar effect on eczema and psoriatic groups but Lidex was more effective than Purantix-C for treating the patients with the pustulosis palmaris et plantaris. Purantix-C without containing perfume and coloring substapce was less irritative.
