It was not until 1919 that the treatment of retinal detachment began to plan on rationale line by Jule Gonin, Who was the first to appriciate the pathological significance of retinal break and therapeutic effect of closing these. Since after the first Gonin's suggestion, various surgical techniques for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment was reoprted in the literatures. Recently the authors had been experienced good surgical results of 45 eyes, beililg operated. The authors employed encircling procedurs and segmental buckling procedure with implants. The segmental buckling procedure was modified from the pocket technique, being employed in the case of simple posterior vitreous detachment. The encircling procedure followed the Crock and Galbraith technique modified from Schepens, being employed in the case of to tal posterior vitreous detachment with collapse. 36 eyes out of 45 eyes was much successful, and no postoperative complication was occurred.

Pityriasis lichenoides chronica is characterized by unknown etiology, chronicity and by being essentially asymptomatic and refractory to therapy. Nine patients with pityriasis lichenoides chronica were treated with orally administrated 8-Methoxypsoralen and UVA irradiation(PUVA Therapy). After S-45 PUVA treatments, lesions were completely cleared.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study were to clarify the significance of PCNA and DNA ploidy as a possible parameter of the prognosis in squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix. STUDY DESIGN: Women with the diagnosis of cervical cancer operated between January 1987, and July 1991, composed the study group(n=35) in this case-control group. Among these 35 patients.In theese patients we chose the patients with complete follow up treatment. Also we employed 7 control paraffin-embedded cervical specimens without any specific pathologic lesions for the comparison. Immunohistochemical staining to identify PCNA was applied to case of paraffin section and PCNA indices was obtained. DNA analysis was done by using flow cytometry and S-phase fraction and DNA ploidy were obtained. RESULT: The results were summarized as follows. 1. S-phase fraction were 20+/-7% in cervical cancer and 16+/-11% in control group. There were no statistical difference. Aneuploid ratio were 26%(9/35) in cervical cancer and 0%(0/7) in control group. There were statistical difference. PCNA indices were 45+/-6% in cervical cancer and 5+/-4% in control group. There were statistical difference. 2. There were no statistical difference in PCNA indices between large cell keratinizing type, and large cell nonkratinizing type of cervical cancer. 3. According to lymph node metastasis, there were no statistical difference in PCNA indices between positive group and negative group.4. According with various pathologic parameters, recurrence rate was hihger in cases of parametrial involvement. 5. The correlation of coefficient was 0.747 between PCNA indices and S-phasd fraction that is a significant relationship.6. According to recurrence, there were no statistical difference in S-phase fraction, aneuploidy and PCNA indices between group of recurrence and no recurrence.7. There were no statistical difference between <20% group nad>20%, group of S-phase, aneuploid and <60%, group and >60%, group of PCNA index in view of recurrence rate. conclusion: That is a significant relationship between S-phase fraction and PCNA indices, But, there are no statictical significance of PCNA indices, DNA ploid and a prognostic factor. So, that is a limitation in PCNA index DNA ploid when it was used as as prognostic parameter of nterine cervical cancer.

Progressive idiopathic atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini is an asymptomatic atrophic disorder of the skin characterized by sharply demarcated, slightly depressed and slate-gray to brownish patches. The affected skin may be thin but of normal consistency. We herein described a 32-year-old female who showed on the trunk and extremities well-defined, brownish and atrophic areas without induration, but the central portion of the abdominal lesion was slightly thickened. Histopathologic findings showed slight thinning of the epidermis and dermis with mild perivascular infiltrate, however, the central portion of the abdominal lesion showed a focal, slightly sclerotic change of the collagen fibers.

The author had been experienced one case of ophthalmic migraine recently and was reviewed the liturature. Variability of symptoms and periodicity are characteristic feature of the migraine Syndroms. In this case, periodic scintillating scotoma, which developed abruptly, was revealed congruous in the right homonymous fields, lasting about 30 minutes. Scintillating scotoma refers to the migraneous scotoma with the shimmering border. This illuminated dancing border takes the form of "fortification figures". The Author was concerned particularly about the variable symptoms and pathogenesis of aphthalmic migraine.
