The skin defects or sensory impairment of the fingers, especially at the critical area for prehension(tips of thumb, index and middle fingers) should be reconstructed for the better function of hand. In our department, we performed neurovascular island pedicle flap transfer for the purpose of reconstruction of sensibility and skin defect simultaneousely to the critical area. 1. Since 1978, we had performed neurovascular island pedicle flap transfer in 14cases, among which 9 cases were followed for more than one year. 2. The operation was performed for the reconstruction of thumb in 8 cases, and index in 4 cases. The most common cause of injury was crushing by machine(8 cases). 3. The island flap was transferred from middle finger(9 cases) and from ring finger(4 cases). 4. Recovery of the protective sensation at the recipient sites was good or fair after one year, but reorientation and two point discrimination were poor. 5. Cold intolerance was developed in 3 cases and callosity was formed in 2 cases. 6. In all cases, the transferred flaps were good in circulation status and durability. 7. It is considered that the neurovascular island pedicle flap is an accepted method of restoring skin coverage as well as sensation to a localized tactile area in the hand.

We report one case of bilateral naviculo-medial cuneiform coalition in ten year old girl. She complained of pain in the medial aspect of the mid-foot related to long periods of standing and activity. Routine roentgenographs, specifically lateral views showed a bony bridge between the navicular bone and medial cuneiform. A biopsy revealed as fibrocartilaginous tissue. The bony bridge consists about one third in lateral view and 30 degree cephalad tilting in the antero-posterior view. Bilateral resection arthroplasty, with interposing flesh muscle fibers of the abductor hallucis, was performed for restoration of motion in the naviculo-medial cuneiform joint and relief of localized pain. Four months after surgery, pain around the mid-foot had almost complete subsided. One year postoperative, neither recurrence nor disability was observed. We will discuss the diagnosis and treatment of this rare case of bilateral naviculo-medial cuneiform coalition.

BACKGROUND: Myelopathies are classified as intramedullary and extramedullary one on the basis of location of lesion. Though there are some characteristic clinical findings which can differentiate extramedullary from intramedullary lesions, it is not easy to tell extramedullary from intramedullary lesions in complicated cases. We performed this study to figure out the relationships between anatomic location (intramedullary or extramedullary), clinical parameters (motor and sensory symptoms and signs), and electrophysiologic findings in myelopathy. We also investigated the diagnostic value of motor evoked potential (MEP) compared with that of somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) in myelopathy. The amplitude changes of compound muscle action potential (CMAP) after motor cortex stimulation have a lot of intra-individual and inter-individual variability, so were not used to determine pyramidal tract dysfunction in clinical ground. We analyzed CMAP amplitude changes in myelopathy. METHODS: Fifty-six patients with myelopathy demonstrated in MRI were studied. We defined abnormal CMAP amplitude changes as intra-individual inter-side amplitude ratio more than 50%. RESULTS: Lower MEP showed abnormal findings in 93% of tests and lower SSEP, 37% (p<0.05). The correla-tions between clinical parameters and electrophysiologic findings were higher in lower MEP (71%) than lower SSEP (42%) (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that MEP is more useful than SSEP for detecting spinal cord dysfunction but as false positivity of lower MEP was considerable, MEP and SSEP are reciprocal diagnostic method for myelopathy. SSEP and MEP do not have significant diagnostic values in differentiating extramedullary from intramedullary myelopathy. The inter-side CMAP amplitude difference may indicate subclinical spinal cord dysfunction.

7.Clinical Observation on 100 Cases of Donor Nephrectomy.
Korean Journal of Urology 1989;30(2):209-213
Clinical observation was done on 100 cases of donor nephrectomy performed in the Department of Urology, Kyung Hee University Hospital from Aug., 1978 to June, 1988. The results were obtained as follows. 1. Among 100 patients, there was 44 men and 56 women, with age range from 4 to 75 years. 2. 88 donors had familiar relationship with recipients. Among them, 47 patients were parents of recipient, 34 were siblings and 7 were off springs. 11 patients were living unrelated onors and there was one cadaver donor. 3. Left kidneys were procured in 88 patients, and nephrectomy was performed through thoracoabdominal incision in 94 cases. 4. At postoperative 24 hours, BUN and serum creatinine levels were elevated in 4 cases and 9 cases, respectively. 5. There were no operative death but postoperative complications occurred in 23 patients. The most common complication was respiratory problem and occurred in 12 cases. Wound infection were 7, UTI were 2 and postoperative abnormal liver function were 2. 6. Among 23 patients who were follow up for more than one year, hypertension developed in 2 cases and 4 cases showed elevated serum creatinine level.

A case of unilateral multicystic renal dysplasia was reported in view of rarity, and a review of literature 23-year-old female was admitted to Kyung Hee University Hospital with a complaint of urinary incontinence. An excretory urogram revealed non-visualization of the right kidney. The right ureter had opening at the 2 cm above the vaginal introitus. The resected right kidney revelaed multilobulated outer surface with multiloculated cystic struture on cut surface. The associated anomaly was uterine didelphy. The condition was treated by nephroureterectomy.
