To treat intermittent exotropia, bilateral recession or monocular recession-resection can be chosen. Thirty one cases of intermittent exotropia with preoperative exoangle 25 delta were treated with 8mm bilateral recession (15 cases) and 5.5mm recession of lateral rectus muscle combined with 5mm resection of medial rectus muscle (16 cases). The final surgical results were compared between the 2 groups. The surgical results were as follows: in bilateral recession group, 33.3% was satisfactory, 60.0% undercorrected, and 6.7% overcorrected with 13.7 months of follow-up in average, in monocular recession-resection group, 50.0% was satisfactory, 18.8% undercorrected, and 31.3% overcorrected with 13.0 months of follow-up in average. Monocular recession-resection procedure had better satisfactory result than that of bilateral recession procedure. The author agrees the opmion that recession-resection produces a more permanent result than recession alone because the resection of the medial rectus muscle locks the eye in better alignment, preserving the benefit of the recessed lateral rectus muscle.

Two cases of carcinoid tumor of the uterine cervix were reported with emphasis on the histologic, cytologic, histochemical and electron microscopic appearance of tumor cells. Based on the light microscopic findings, one case was a well differentiated carcinoid with acinus formation, and the other was a poorly differentiated anaplastic type, being composed of small cells similar to those of oat cell carcinoma of the lung. Both tumors demonstrated scattered argyrophilic cells on Grimelius stain, and contained neurosecretory granules on electron microscopy. They were in stages II b and IV, respectively, at the time of presentation. The latter patient was treated with vinblastin, platinol and bleomycin, but died in 9 months after the initial diagnosis. The former was lost to follow-up study. Importance of distinction between this highly malignant tumor and other varieties of cervical cancer was emphasized.

Recent advances in understanding the anatomy of complete atrioventricular septal defect have led to alternative methods of repairing these defects. Here we report two cases of complete atrioventricular septal defect repair by direct closure of the ventricular element of the defect. Follow-up for average of 3 months suggests that, when direct closure can be performed, the results can be comparable with those of the standard technique. Our initial success with this approach is encouraging; however, longer follow-up and more experiences are required to establish whether it will be broadly applicable.
