2.A case of simple cyst of the testis in an infant: ultrasonography and testicular preservation.
Korean Journal of Urology 1992;33(6):1124-1127
We report a very rare case of simple intra-testicular cyst, a 1.7 x l.2 cm sized round lesion fulfilling the criteria of a simple cyst on ultrasound in a 4-month-old male infant in whom the lesion was confirmed as a simple intra-testicular cyst on frozen section and subsequently underwent excision with successful preservation or the testis.

3.Clinical significance of serum prostate specific antigen in diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Korean Journal of Urology 1993;34(6):962-968
Serum prostate specific antigen(PSA) as well as serum prostate acid phosphatase(PAP), the reference serum marker and digital rectal examination were measured to evaluate the clinical significance according to the diagnosis and stage of prostate cancer in 17 patients with prostate cancer & 40 patients with BPH proven pathologically, 21 normal control group free of prostate disorders from June. 1991 to June, 1992. As the mean PSA value (+/-S.D.) was 92.75 +/-16.30ng/ml for prostate cancer. 16.52 +/-2.85ng/ml for BPH and 1.51 +/-0.17 for normal control group and the mean PAP value( +/-S.D.) was 12.33 +/-3.73ng/ml, 1.48 +/-0.21ng/ml and 0.70 +/-0.1ng/ml each other, there- fore the mean PSA value in prostate cancer group revealed statistical significance(p <0.01). PSA was more sensitive and nearly same specific as PAP in diagnosis of prostate cancer(n=20ng/ml). The diagnostic accuracy of PSA was higher than PAP, positive predictive value was highest in PSA(n=20ng/ml) with abnormal digital rectal examination. The higher of the PSA, PAP value, the higher stage of prostate cancer and there was slight increase in PSA value as mush as increased grade of prostatic cancer. And serum PSA level was determined during the follow up after endocrine or combined chemotherapy and as the results 4 of 8 patients revealed normal PSA value and improvement of clinical symptoms within 2.8 months. We concluded that PSA was a simple and useful method for detection of prostate cancer and follow up after treatment, but by strict statistical criteria alone, PSA by itself didn`t qualify as an effective screening tool. Therefore if in PSA combined with digital rectal examination and transrectal ultrasonography and especially combined with PSAD and PSAV in case of 4-20ng/ml in serum PSA value it might be very useful in early diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of prostate cancer.

In virtue of endourologic development recently, ureteroscopic removal of stone is widely used as treatment of the stone. But there were some complicated problems, such as radiation hazard to patient and urologist, anesthesia, expensive dilator etc. The ureteroscopic removal of stone was done in 42 cases of lower ureter stone with non-anesthetic, non-fluoroscopic ureteroscopic removal of stone. The success rate was 76.5%. and there were no severe vesicoureteral reflux and ureteral stricture as delayed complication on intravenous pyelography and voiding cystourethrography. which were checked on 3 months after. But one man, failed to removal of stone. had sepsis and managed by ureterolithotomy. Other minor complications were managed successfully by conservative method. The non-anesthetic, non-fluoroscopic ureteroscopic removal of stone was the efficient initial method to manage of the lower ureter stone, which was smaller than 1cm in size.

PURPOSE: To compare the efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in patients treated with either latanoprost or dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination (DTFC) for primary open-angle glaucoma. METHODS: This retrospective study included 92 consecutive patients who underwent a 180-degree SLT for the first time. The subjects divided into two groups:patients who received latanoprost (n = 63) or DTFC (n = 29) before and after SLT. The main outcome measure was intraocular pressure (IOP) decrease over five years after SLT. The mean IOP change, mean percentage of IOP reduction, and success rates were compared between the patients treated with latanoprost and the patients treated with DTFC. Success was defined as an IOP decrease ≥ 3 mm Hg or IOP reduction ≥ 20% without additional medications, laser surgery, or glaucoma surgery. RESULTS: At the postoperative one-year follow-up, the mean IOP was 15.7 ± 2.2 mm Hg in the latanoprost group and, 16.2 ± 2.4 mm Hg in the DTFC group. At the postoperative five-year follow-up, the mean IOP was 15.1 ± 2.5 mm Hg in the latanoprost group and, 14.6 ± 1.7 mm Hg in the DTFC group. There were no statistically significant differences in IOP change, percentage IOP reduction, or success rate between the groups at each time point after the SLT (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Selective laser trabeculoplasty showed a reasonable efficacy in lowering the IOP over a five-year follow-up period. There were no significant differences in IOP lowering effect or success rate between the patients treated with latanoprost or DTFC.
