A case of pathological hip dislocation in a child, aged 2 years 6 months, who had surgical treatment, is reported. The boy has history of osteomyelitis of right ilium at age of 10 month, which ended up with the right hip dislocation. Postoperatively cephalocotyloid relation of the right hip was very well reestablished during five years of postoperative observation. Through this case, it is reconfirmed that a child hip has a natural remodelling power even in case of hip joint destruction.

Twenty five cases of fractures of the femur & tibia on the same leg (floating knee) in 24 patients were treated in St. Mary's Hospital, Catholic Medical College and Center during the period 1977-1985. We studied all of these patients, divided by four groups according to the methods of treatment, retrospectively with analysis of treatment and end result. Our policy of treatment for these multiple fractures in single extremity was directed toward early weight bearing, active and passive knee exercise by early open reduction and rigid internal fixation for both fractures. The results obtained were as follows: l. Of 25 cases, 20 patients were male and 5 were female. 2. The right lower extremity has constituted 56% of the cases. 3. Average age of patients were 37 years. 4. Most common level of fractures was on middle one third of femur (71.4% ) and proximal one third of tibia (46.2%). Of these 25 cases, three cases of femur and one case of tibia were segmental fractures, and one case of femur and five cases of tibia were open fractures initially. 5. Of 28 cases of femur fracture, 23 were given operative treatment and five conservative method. But out of 26 cases of tibia fracture, each half cases of fracture were treated operatively and conservatively. 6. We analysed the final results of treatment by the time of fracture union roentgenologically and five lower limb functions clinically at the termination of treatment. The average time for fracture union was 20.5 weeks for femur and 21.9 weeks for tibia roentgenologically. The acceptable clinical results could be achieved in 18 cases (72%) of early open reduction and rigid internal fixation for both tibia and femur as early as possible after accident for early knee exercises. 7. The status of fractured tibia was the most important factor to treat these multiple fractures in single extremity because of troublesome to start knee exercise and weight bearing.

7.Arm Wrestler's Injury (Report of fourteen Cases)

According to literatures, the different types of fractures can occur as a result of arm wrestling ; Spiral fracture of the humeral shaft associating often with a bntterfly fragment, fracture of medial epicondyle of the humerus, and the marginal radial head fracture with anterior dislocation. The last type is very rarely reported. In addition to the fracture occurrence, other injuries such as muscular strain of the arm, and sprain or luxation of the shoulder, elbow and wrist joints can be taken place. However, it is thought that the most of those injuries by arm wrestling have been treated simply by general practioners unreported. The arouse the attention of the jury of the game, wrestlers and the surgenons, the cases of bony injuries sustained during the arm-wrestling are reported. Thirteen patients were treated by us since 1977. Among them, five cases had fractures of the humeral shaft, and eight cases had fractures of medial epicondyle of the humerus. Among the five shaft fractures, three were treated by conservatively, and two by operatively. Among 8 avulsion fractures of the medial epicondyle only two were treated conservatively, and 6 operatively. One patient sustained the medial epicondylar avulsion fracture twice for which K-wire fixation treatment was done. The results of treatment were all satisfactory. However, because of the possibility of wrestlers sustaining such injuries. Arm wrestling should not be considered a totally benign sport.

8.Voluntary Habitual Hip Dislocation in a child

Voluntary habitual dislocation of the hip is very rarely reported in children, and only 13 cases have been reported in the literature. We add a new case in a 5 year old boy. The boy did not have previous history of trauma, skeletal and/or soft tissue anomalies, nor known connective disease. He was treated by intertrochanteric varusinward rotation osteotomy of the affected hip on February 25, 1985 and was followed until January 11, 1993. Postoperative convalescence was uneventfully successful, and the hip developed well without any obvious dysplasia at the latest follow-up.

9.Treatment of Fracture of Shaft of Humerus by Ender Nailing

The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1994;29(6):1597-1601
Authors presented the experience of Ender nail treatment for the humeral shaft fractures in 24 patients. The results of treatment in all were satisfactory, though there were four cases of delayed union. Bridging callus was formed at 8.2 weeks on an average. The average clinical union time was 14 weeks. No complications developed during nailing procedure. A case of radial nerve palsy after fracture recovered spontaneously. Longer nails which hit the end of medullary canal of distal fragment distracted the fracture gap, and resulted in delayed union in 4 cases. Therefore, it is recommended to use the proper size of nail to avoid the distraction effect of the inserted nail, and to use two nails at minimum for better fixation. However, when intramedullary Ender nailing is properly done, single nailing also can give consistently good anatomic and functional results.

The purpose of this study was to assess the results of passive release of the pulley with needle under local anesthesia performed at the out patient department. There were 68 fingers of 54 patients. Fifteen patients(27.8 %) were male and 39 patients(72.2 %) were female. Involved fingers were 28 thumbs(41.2 %), 7(10.3 %) index fingers, 14(20.6 %) middle fingers, and 19(27.9 %) ring fingers. Ages were varied-between 41 years and 61 years old. Rheumatoid fingers were 12(17.6 %). The others had no underlying disease. An 18 gauge needle was introduced distal to the palpable nodule. The pulley was released passively when the PIP joint was extended. The follow-up period was 4.5 years on average(range; 1-8 years). At final follow-up local recurrence was noted in 1-2 weeks in 7 cases(10.3 %), which was due to technical fault in early trial cases. The patients complained of pain for a few days and mild tenderness for less than 2 weeks. In three cases adhesion occurred, which was resolved in a week by maniqulation. There was no difference between rheumatoid arthritis and the other underlying diseases as far as rate of recurrence was concerned. From these results it would be suggested that the passive release of pulley with needle is an effective method for the treatment of adult trigger finger.
