PURPOSE: Headache is a frequent symptom in pediatric practice, but the prevalence of chronic recurrent headache was estimated in several studies with wide variations, because of inadequate expression and differences in case definition in children. Headache classification of International Headache Society is usually used in adults, but the application of it to children is uncommon, so we tried to diagnosis children with headache by using International Headache Society Classification. METHODS: We analyzed the clinical pictures, physical examinations including neurologic examination, PNS series, EEG and CT or MRI in 53 children with nonprogressing recurrent headache over than one month, who visited to pediatric department of Dong-A University hospital from January, 1995 to Feburary, 1996 and diagnosed them by using International Headache Society Classification. RESULTS: 1) The sex ratio between male and female was 1:1.2. 2) Diagnosed groups consisted of children with migraines in 22 cases(41.5%), tension-type headache in 19 cases(35.9%), coexisting migraine and tension-type headaches in 5 cases(9.4%), miscellaneous headaches not associated with structual lesion in 1 case(1.9%), headache associated with vascular disorders in 2 cases(3.8%), headache associated with nonvascular intracranial disorder in 1 case(1.9%), headache due to facial pain in 3 cases(5.6%). 3) Of 22 migraine cases, 13 cases(59.1%) had migraine with aura, 8 cases(40.9%) have migraine without aura and of 19 tension-type headache cases, 8 cases(42.1%) have episodic type, 11(57.9%) cases have chronic type. 4) Of 53 cases with recurrent headache, 3 cases(6%) had abnormal findings in CT or MRI. 5) Of 53 cases with recurrent headache, 9 cases(17%) had abnormal findings in EEG. CONCLUSIONS: International Headache Society Classifications are useful, but the diagnostic criteria are too strict for children, especially in migraine and tension type headache.

BACKGROUND: Increased frequency of comminuted clavicle mid-shaft fractures and importance of functional satisfaction through early joint exercise has resulted in higher emphasis on surgical treatments. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical radiological results of treatment of clavicle mid-shaft fractures by open reduction and internal fixation using a plate with a small incision. METHODS: The subjects of this study were 80 clavicle mid-shaft fracture cases treated with internal fixation using a plate from October 2010 to July 2014. Clavicle mid-shaft fractures were internally fixated using anatomical plates or locking compression plates. Achievement of bone union, union period, and clavicle length shortening were evaluated radiologically, and clinical assessment was done by using Constant and University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) scores. RESULTS: All 80 cases were confirmed to have achieved bone union through radiographs with an average union period of 10.9 weeks (range: 7–18 weeks). The average clavicle length of shortening in the affected side was 1.8 mm (range: 0–17 mm). The average UCLA score and Constant score were 33.6 (range: 25–35) and 92.5 (range: 65–100), respectively. Regarding complications, four cases reported skin irritation by metal plates, and one case reported a screw insertion site fracture due to minor trauma history. CONCLUSIONS: We were able to induce successful bone union and obtain clinically satisfactory results in displaced mid-shaft fractures of the clavicle without major complications such as nonunion through treatment of internal fixation using a plate.

OBJECTIVES: This study was performed to evaluate the occupational relationship on 190 cases of cancer selected out of 622 cases of cancer registered in two university hospitals from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 1997. METHODS: The selection criteria was for the patient to be more than 40 years old with lung, liver, urinary bladder, nasal cavity and skin cancer or leukemia. We reviewed the medical records to update the missing data and occupational histories. Telephone interviews were used to obtain complete occupational histories on the subjects. RESULTS: The sites of cancer in the order of relative frequency was lung (51.0%), followed by liver (32.9%), urinary bladder (14.1%) and skin (2.0%) in male, liver (41.5%), followed by lung (31.7%), skin (19.5%) and urinary bladder (7.3%) in female. The occupational histories of 190 cases with suspected cancer-causing occupations were recorded 5.8% on the doctor's medical records and 33.2% on the nursing records. The response rates of the telephone interviews were 87.4%. The distribution of occupation according to the telephone interviews was farmer (47.7%), office worker (16.1%), salesman (12.8%), production worker (6.7%), simple laborer (3.4%) and unknown (13.4%) in male, housewife (63.4%), farmer (17.1%), saleswoman (9.8%) and unknown (9.8%) in female. And there were two cases of suspected occupational relationships in the lung cancer cases. CONCLUSIONS: We could not discover definite cases of occupational cancer but found out two cases of suspected occupational relationships. Occupational cancer is likely to increase in the near future, so the efforts to detect occupational relationships with cancer should be continued.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) is a new diagnostic method for pancreatic and biliarydiseases which has been made possible by the development of fiberoptic duodenoscopy. It has been thought that ERCPwell serve an important role in the early detection of pancreatic cancer, but in order to detect minor lesions ofthe pancreas and improve the diagnostic accuracy of resectable pancreatic cancer, Endoscopic RetrogradeParechymography of the pancreas (ERPP) was developed recently. The authors analyzed 117 cases of ERCP performed atthe Kwangju Christian Hospital between Jan. and Dec. 1980, and compared them with the final diagnosis. The resultswere as follows; 1. Out of 117 cases, successful visualization of the duct of concern was achieved in 105 cases.Of these, 25 cases were ERPP. 2. The ratio of males to female was 1.44:1. Most patients were in the 4th to 6thdecade. 3. The commmonest clinical manifestations were upper abdominal pain (77cases), jaundice(23 cases),indigestion, vomiting and abdominal mass, in order of frequency. 4. Out of 46 cases of suspected pancreaticdiseases, the pancreatic duct was visualized in 36 cases, and 24 cases revealed pathognomonic findings. These werediagnosed as 16 cases of pancreatic cancer, 4 cases of chronic pancreatitis, 2 cases of pancreatic pseudocyst and2 cases of periampullary cancer with pancreas invasion. In pancreatic cancer findings were; encasement, localdilatation, delayed excretion, poor filling, obstruction of pancreatic duct, accompanying C.B.D. obstruction orstenosis and so called double duct sign. The chronic pancreatitis findings included; ductal dilatation (with orwtihout) obstruction, tortuosity with dilated saccular lateral branching, stone formation and the parenchymalfilling defect. 5. Out of 71 cases of suspected biliary tract diseases, the biliary tract was visualized in 57cases, and in 31 cases abnormalities were suggested; such as 20 cases of biliary stone, 1 cases of ascariasis, 1case of clonorchiasis with cholangitis, 1 case of clonorchiasis with stone, 2 cases of C.B.D. ca. 2 cases of G.B.ca, 3 cases of intrahepatic disease, 1 case of stones in the biliary tree with ampullary ca. 6. Complications ofERCP and ERPP were extremely raare. Transient abdominal distention, abdominal discomfort and elevated serumamylase were noted, but were not clinically significant.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) is one of the important diagnostic methods for pancreaticcancer. It has an essential role in the early detection of pancreatic cancer. The ERCP findings of 35 cases ofpathologically proven pancreatic cancer during the period of five and a half years from April 1977 through Nov.1982 at Kwangju Christian Hospital were studied. The resuls were as follows; 1. The ratio of male of female was3.4:1, and most of the patients were over 40 years of age (88.5%). 2. The locations of the lesions were the headin 28 cases (80%), the body in 7 cases(20%), and the ail in 3 cases (8.6%). 3. The ERCP findings of pancreaticcancers were as follows; 1) Encasement or obstruction of common bile duct, 18 cases (51.4%). 2) Obstruction ofpancreatic duct, 16 cases (45.7%). 3) Irregular stenosis of pancreatic duct, 8 cases (22.3%). 4) Double duct sign,7 cases (20%). 5) Diffuse narrowing of pancreatic duct, 2 cases (5.7%).

Cluster headache is a unique primary headache disorder characterized by unilateral severe orbital pain with ipsilateral autonomic symptoms. Symptomatic cluster headache can be caused by variable diseases, such as cerebral aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, cerebral venous thrombosis, carotid dissection, pituitary tumor, and meningioma. We report a 33-year-old woman with parasellar meningioma mimicking cluster headache. After Novalis stereotactic radiosurgery, pain attacks disappeared.
