Early diagnosis and treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip is the only means of obtaining good results with consistent regularity. But a large number of congenital dislocation of the hip remain undiagnosed before the child begins to walk. One hundred and nine cases of congenital dislocation of the hip had been clinically diagnosed and 48 cases of them were treated conservatively or operatively at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of Medicine, Seoul National University from January, 1965 through September, 1975 with following results. 1. Among 109 cases of congenital dislocation of the hip, 48 cases were admitted and treated. In recent 10 years the number of the out-patient was increasing. 2. The preponderance of female to male (4:1) was found. 3. The age ranged between 3 months and 24 years, and 46 cases (42%) between 12 and 24 months. 4. In most cases the chief complaint was limping. 5. The associated congenital anomalies were observed in 3 cases of the series, comprising two cases of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and one case of hydrocephalus. 6. The scetabular index was increased in affected hip. 7. The ratio of unilateral cases to bilateral ones was 100: 9, and right to left was 47: 53. 8. Closed reduction was satisfactory in 25 cases under 2 years of age. 9. Open reduction was necessary in 18 cases of failed closed reduction and 5 cases of redislocation. 10. Eleven cases of Salter's operation, 4 cases of Pembertons operation, 2 cases of Colonnas operation, and 8 cases of derotational osteotomy were performed to increase the stability of the hip joint.

This retrospective study was performed to assess CT scan findings of pancratic cancer and its ability todetermine resectability. CT scans of 41 patients, who were diagnosed to have pancreatic cancer on histological orclinical base, were reviewed. Most common findings were; focal pancreatic enlargement, diffuse pancreaticenlargement, loss of distinct contour, peripancretic fat obliteration, bile duct or pancreatic duct dilatation,vascular invasion, lymph node involvement, direct invasion of adjacent organs and distant metastasis.Resectability was assessed according to generally accepted CT findings such as small pancreatic mass lesion havingnormal lobulated contour of pancreas, no evidence of vascular invasion, no evidence lymph node involvement andfree of distant metastasis. With the criteria, 5 cases among 41 cases deemed to be resectable. However onoperation all cases were found unresectable indicating prediction of tumor resectability is difficult even withhelp of CT. Nonetheless CT would be very helpful in management of patients having pancreatic cancer since CT wouldshorten the diagnostic procedures of pancreatic cancer.

Solid hemangioblastomas of the medulla oblongata are benign vascular neoplasms located in a critical area. We experienced a case of solid hemangioblastoma originated in the medulla oblongata with the syrinx in the cervical spinal cord. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging provided precise anatomical location and radiologic features of the tumor, which facilitated its total removal. Cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders often complicate this type of surgery, and postoperative dysphagia is a frequent sequelae.
