Permanant ileostomy is necessary in the case of a total proctocolectomy for a cancerous change in the distal rectum due to ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis coli, but the fecal content after a conventional ileostomy is usually liquid or semiliquid. Sometimes, this resultes in dehydration and some nutrient loss. Nahm-gun Oh has designed an antiperistaltic ileostomy for formed stool evacuation. About a 25 cm length of the most distal ileum is cut, this segment is reversed, and then the antiperistaltic ileostomy is performed. The authors have performed antiperistaltic ileostomies in 6 cases of familial adenomatous polyposis or ulcerative colitis with a cancerous change in the low rectum. During the past 5 years and 7 months at the Department of Surgery, Pusan National University Hospital, we found that the profuse ileostomy discharge of the conventional ileostomy was decreased in the antiperistaltic ileostomy group, and that the antiperistaltic ileostomy discharge had a liquid component which was markedly decreased compared to that of the conventional ileostomy discharge. In addition, the antiperistaltic ileostomy discharge appeared to be much more solid and less voluminous. In conclusion, the antiperistaltic ileostomy should be considered for creating the effect of a reservoir by producing intestinal stasis proximal to the segment. The antiperistaltic ileostomy is effective in reducing the daily amount of ileostomy discharge and is convenient for stoma care due to the diminished water content in the discharge.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic disease with medication as the treatment of choice. However, surgical treatment is recommended when no improvement is noted despite aggressive conservative treatment. Synovectomy provides desirable outcomes for RA patients in the early stage with a glenohumeral joint of Larsen grade II or less; conversely, arthroplasty is recommended for patients with a glenohumeral joint of grade III or higher. RA patients often have attenuation and dysfunction of the rotator cuff, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty has been proven to provide favorable outcomes in some patients. RA is often complicated with osteoporosis and bony deformity; therefore, close attention is necessary to prevent fractures during shoulder arthroplasty.

Double elevator palsy(DEP) is rare paralytic anomaly of ocular motility due to monocular paresis of both elevator muscles. Clinically, DEP is classified into the pure paralytic, restricted and mixed types. The authors describe the clinical experiences of 2 cases of purely paralytic type of DEP and 2 cases of restricted type of DEP treated at Department of Ophthalmology, Pusan Pail, Hospital, Inje Medical College from January 1988 to January 1991. The results were as follows: 1) In the pure paralytic type of DEP, the hypotropia was below 30 prism diopters in the primary position and in the restricted type, greater than 60 prism diopters preoperatively. 2) Preoperatively, the pseudoptosis was shown in 2 cases of purely paralytic type of DEP and it was disappeared postoperatively. The Bell's phenomenon was shown the negative result in 2 cases of restricted type of DEP. 3) For the pure paralytic type, the both vertical and horizontal deviation were corrected completely in primary position by the transposition and recession of the horizontal rectus muscles at one surgery and the limitation of ocular motility remained more and less in the elevation postoperatively but no limitation in the adduction and abduction. For the restricted type, the tenectomy of the inferior rectus muscle corrected about 40 prism diopters of hypotropia without the limitation of the infraduction.

The congenital cataract is the relatively common cause of the blindness in childhood, and its etiology is multiple but most of etiology is unknown. The inheritance is the largest single category of cause of congenital cataract. The modes of the inheritance are autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive and X-linked. The autosomal dominant inheritance is the most common type. We experienced hereditary congenital cataract, which transmitted with autosomal dominant inheritance. So we reported this patients with review of literatures.
