In 101 jaundiced patients, gray scale ultrasonography of longitudinal scan in RAO position demonstrated themeasurable extrahepatic biliary system in 73 patient; 17 cases (50%) of those with nonobstructive jaundice and 56cases (84%) of those with obstructive jaundice. The size of the internal diameter of extrahepatic biliary systemindicated that obstructive jaundice was best differentiated from non-obstructive jaundice when diameter above 7mm served as abnormal extrahepatic duct in jaundiced patients, giving sensitivity 85.5% specificity 97% anddiagnostic accuracy 89.5% by decision matrix analysis. The overall etiological diagnostic accuracy in obstructivejaundice was 40% which had higher one in choledocholithiasis and pancreas head carcinoma than other diseases. Thesonography should be imaging procedure of choice in differential diagnosis of jaundiced patients, which is simple, safe, noninvasive and has high diagnostic accuracy in differentiation between the two.

6.A Case of Presacral Inflammatory Cyst, Causing Medial Deviation of Pelvic Ureteral Course.
Korean Journal of Urology 1979;20(4):426-429
A case of presacral inflammatory cyst occurring in a 22 year old male soldier is presented. He complained of lower abdominal pain and tenderness, intermittent severe back pain and flank pain, intermittent chill and fever, frequency, dysuria, G-I trouble Excretory urogram showed mild pyelocalyectasis of left kidney and medial displacement of left pelvic ureter. On colon enema sigmoid showed smooth round displacement to midline, and marked anterior displacement of rectum was found. On cystoscopic examination 5F ureteral catheter couldn't be passed over above 2 Cm, from left ureteral orifice with marked resistance. Presacral inflammatory cyst was found in exploration laparotomy by transperitoneal approach, and excision with drainage was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful and pelvic ureter restored its natural coures.

To assess the effectiveness of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with endorectal surface coil in the ataging of carcinoma of the uterine cervix with emphasis on parametrial involvement. Thirty women with clinically and radiographically proven carcinoma of the uterine cervix were initially included for this study, but thirteen patients were excluded since the stages of tumors wore beyond stage IIa. CT and MR findings of the remaining seventeen patients were performed at Cheil General Hospital and compared a1ong with clinical findings with the special emphasis on the parametrial involvement by the tumor. Staging was assessed by CT and MRI, and the results were compared with the pathologic staging. Radiea1 abdominal hysterectomy with the pelvic and paraaortic lymphnode dissection was done to all sewenteen patients. The staging made primarily by CT and MRI was either stsge 1 or Ila, but MR images with endorectal surface coil was superior to CT in the visualization of depth of tumor infiltration, especially parametrial involvement. The determination of the depth of the tumor made by MR images showed statistically significant correlation with histologic evaluation(R =0.768, p<0.01). The accuracy rate for the evaluation of the parametrial invo1vement was 82.3% far CT and 94.1% for MRI with endorectal surface coil. The overall accuracy rate for tumor staging was 70.5% for clinical, 58.8% for CT and 82.3% for MR evaluation. The accurecy rate in evaluation of the pelvic and paraaortic lymphnode was 88.2% for CT, but the evaluation done by MRl was not adequate due to small FOV(field of view). In assessment of The steging of careinoma of the uterine cervlx, MR images with endorectal surface coil was superior to CT, especially in the evaluation of the parametrial involvement.

Aneurysms of peripheral pulmonary arteries are uncommon. It may appear as a coinlesion in a plain chest film. In general, a popular and effective method for pathologic diagnosis of solitary lung lesion is needle aspiration biopsy, a technique which is safe in most instances. Also, ultrasonograhic or fluoroscopic methods are needed for the evaluation of this lesion. If pulmonary artery aneurysm is untreated, the prognosis of this disease is poor. Sixty percents of the patients with pulmonary artery aneurysm died following rupture of the aneurysm. Surgical correction is the preferred treatment. We are reporting a case of pulmonary aneurysm with the review of literature.

Epidermoid cyst of the testis is a rare benign neoplasm. This neoplasm was initially described by Dockerty and Priestley in 1942. We report one case of epidermoid cyst of the testis with review of literatures.
