2.Myotonic Dystrophy (A case report)
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1979;14(1):119-123
Myotonia is characterized by failure of the voluntary muscles to relax immediately and persistence of contraction following voluntery movement or mechanical and electrical stimulation, Myotonic dystrophy (myotonia dystrophica, myotonia atrophica, Steinert's disease) is a hereditary progressive muscular abnormality with dominent transmittance and is characterized by myotonia, muscular wasting and weakness, and frequent association of frontal baldness, testicular atrophy, cataracts, and other nonmuscular abnormalities, We report a case of myotonic dystrophy in a 38 year-old man who had myotonia, muscular wasting and weakness, testicular atrophy, and frontal baldness, Electrodiagnostic studies indicated typical myotonic dystrophy. A review of literature is included.

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a rare disease which represents a chronic suppurative and scarring process, affecting the apocrine glands due to persistent bacterial infection and apocrine dysfunction. We have experienced a case of hidradenitis suppurativa, 22-year-old female which involved both axillary region. Diagnosis was established by clinical characteristicsymptoms, histopathological findings and bacteriological examinations.

6.Antibiotics-associated Pseudomembranous Colitis: A Clinico-Pathologic Analysis with Special Reference to Non-pseudomembranous Mucosal Change.
Korean Journal of Pathology 1997;31(4):308-313
The presence of volcano-shaped pseudomembrane(PM) formations above the inflamed mucosa has been referred to as the unique biopsy criterion of the pseudomembranous colitis, but PM might be lost during the bowel preparation, and such loss leads pathologists to erroneous interpretations of the endoscopic biopsy specimens. The purpose of this paper is to identify the additional diagnostic clue other than PM among various histologic features in pseudomembranous colitis. We reviewed sigmoidoscopic biopsy specimens from 13 cases of antibiotics-associated pseudomembranous colitis which was confirmed to reveal characteristic PM by endoscopy aside from the clinical history of antibiotics administration. The cases were divided into two groups: the presence of PM (n=7) and its absence (n=6). Both groups showed basically identical histology, which included features of glandular distension, epithelial necrosis, crypt abscess, regenerative glands and mucous plug within the necrotic/dilated glands. Mucous plugs within the necrotic/ dilated glands were found in all cases and seemed to be the most characteristic microscopic feature. Ten cases of resected chronic ulcerative colitis in the active stage were compared for a differential diagnosis of crypt abscess-associated mucosal change. None of them revealed necrotic gland with mucous plugs, although crypt abscess formation was common in both conditions. We conclude that presence of mucous plugs in the dilated/necrotic glands is a useful diagnostic clue even though the biopsy specimens fail to demonstrate PM.

The therapeutie efficacy of ranitidine was evaluated itn 48 in- and out- patients with endoscopically diagnosed 18 cases of gaetric ulcer and 30 casea of ducnienal ulcer. In the open study, every pabenta was treated with ranitidine 150 mg b.i.d. for 4 weeks, and waa followed up by gastroscopy after 4 weeks of the treatment. The reeults obtained were summarized as follows; 1) 15 out of 18 cases (83. 3%) of gastric ulcers and 26 out of 30 cases (86. 7%) of duodenal ulcers had been completely healed up in 4 weeks. 2) There was a significant relationship between healing of ulcer and the relief of symptoms (x =6.12, P<0.005).3) There were no significant untoward reactions, efther subjective or objective, to the administration of the drug, except one case of severe epigastic discomfort. In conclusion ranitidine appears to be fairy effective and safe for the treatment of patient with peptic ulcr diseases.

10.Recurrent dislocation of the Patella: Experience with Ten Knees

The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1979;14(1):35-44
Our experience with recurrent dislocation of the patella on ten knees in eight patients seen at Seoul National University Hospital during the last 2 years and eight months is reported. Five were female and three male. The age ranged from seven to 27 years. In four of the patients the onset was attributable to a definite history of trauma, while in one patient the dislocation was considered due to developmental anomalies and in another it was clearly congenital Still another patient had a progressively short limb due to premature closure of the distal femoral epiphysis with accompanying flexion-valgus deformity of the knee, presumably caused by an unrecognized infection during early childhood One adolescent girl had bilateral knock knees. The knock knees were treated successfully by supracondylar osteotomy and one post-traumatic knee by classical Roux-Goldthwait procedure with equally excellent result, The rest were treated by Greens vastus medialis transfer with division of the iliotibial band or reefing of the medial joint capsule when necessary. In one knee dislocation recurred, probably due to avulsion of the transferred vastus, and two knees had residual subluxation and limitation of flexion. The results on the remaining seven knees were excellent.
