From January, 1972 to August 1983, 12 cases of ovarian pregnancy out of 1202 total ectopic pregnancy were studied and the incidence constituted 0.9%. The gross and microscopic findings were reviewed according to gross description and gross photographs, and microscopic description and reviewing all microscopic slides. All cases were shown to meet Spiegelberg's criteria for primary ovarian pregnancy.

Arteiovenous malformation of the uterus is an extremely rare and becomes one of the causes of severe uterine bleeding. Because uterine bleeding can be aggravated with diagnostic dilatation and curettage, an accurate diagnosis should be achieved before the intervention. This malformation may be congenital or acquired. In the past, the diagnosis is usually made retrospectively after hysterectomy, however, recently it may be made before management by ultrasound, doppler ultrasound, pelvic angiography, magnetic resonance imaging, etc.. We have experienced one case of arteriovenous malformation of the uterus, which is presented with a brief review of the literatures.

Effect of diltiazem hydrochloride on cardiac performance with particular reference to the antianginal action was studied in 17 patients with ischemic heart disease, including 12 cases of effort angina, by means of clinical and mechanocardiographic evaluations. All patients were kept on the same medications from at least 2 weeks prior to diltiazem administration until the end of the study, and were prescribed no other antianginal drugs except for liberal use of sublingual nitroglycerin. Diltiazem was given 90mg a day in three divided doses for two weeks. Clinical and mechanocardiographic evaluations, including calculations of pressure rate product(PRP), triple product(TP) and tension time index(TTI), were made before and at a weekly interval after diltiazem administration. After the medication, heart rate, blood pressure and the pre-ejection period(PEP) with its ratio to the ejection time tended to decrease, and the decreases in heart rate and the PEP at the end of two weeks were significant. The PRP, TP and TTI were also significantly decreased at the end of the second week, and the decrease in the TTI was significant even a week after the medication. An antianginal effect, which appeared within few days, was excellent to good in over 90 percent of the cases. These facts suggest that diltiazem hydrochloride has no negative inotropic action and its antianginal effecti in its early stage of the drug administration is primarily due to coronary vasodilation and, as the drug is continued, is contributed to possibly by the decrease in the myocardial oxygen consumption as well.

We examined visual acuity and refractive state of 1,522 children (904 boys and 618 girls) in the 6th grade of the primary school in the center of Kwangju city, and of 1,318 children(711 boys and 607 girls) in the outskirts. To evaluate environmental factors, the statistical comparative study in two groups about visual acuity and refractive state including the data from the questionnaires answered by parentr was done. The results were as follows: 1. The incidence of subnormal visual acuity was 20.5%. It was higher in girls (25.9%) than in boys (16.3%), and higher in the school in the center (22.7%) of the city than in the outskirts (17.9%). Especially, in girls, it was significantly low in the outskirts (21.4%) comparing to the center (30.3%). 2. In the relationship between the incidence of subnormal visual acuity and posture, the incidence was higher in the children who have a poor carriage during studying(24.6%) than in the children who have a fine carriage (19.9%) and it was markedly higher in girls (30.7%) than in boys (19.7%). 3. The incidence of subnormal visual acuity was higher in the children who maintained inadequate distance from the TV set (24.1% ) than in the children who maintained adequate distance (19.6%), and it was higher in girls (31.3%) than in boys (17.8%). 4. The incidence of subnormal visual acuity was similar in the children who had balanced diet (21.6%)and the children who had one-sided diet (22.8%). 5. Refractive state of the eyes with subnormal visual acuity was myopic in 17.0%, hyperopic in 3.0% and mixed astigmatic in 0.3%. The incidence of myopic eyes was higher in girls (21.3%) than in boys (13.8%). 6. Occurrence of the eyes which returned from abnormal refractive state to emme tropia by instillation of 5% homatropine solution was similar in boys (5.2%) and girls (6.9%) and the eyes were considered to be pseudomyopic.

The leiomyoma of the vagina is relatively rare benign solid tumor, and majority of them were not recognized until after operation. Variable opinion exists as to the exact origin of this lesion. The most frequent location is the anterior vaginal wall. Recently we experienced a case of vaginal leiomyoma arising in the anterior vaginal wall and now we present it with a brief review of the literatures.

A 65-year-old female patient experienced melena for 10 days. Gastroduodenoscopy revealed a tumor in the duodenum, a portion of which was taken for biopsy, which showed a malignant tumor. She underwent pancreatoduodenectomy, and the final tumor pathology revealed invasive ductal carcinoma from the breast, which was confirmed using immunostaining of milk fat globule antigens. Nineteen years before, she had received a radical mastectomy due to invasive ductal carcinoma of the right breast. Hematogenous metastasis occurs in 33% of patients with breast cancer, mainly to the liver and lung, in invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), and to the gastrointestinal tract, peritoneum, and retroperitoneum in invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). Solitary metastatic duodenal tumors from breast cancer, especially IDC, is rare, particularly after a long time. This rare case is presented with a literature review.

Electrocardiographic findings in 18 cases of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy(HOCM) were compared with those in 20 hypertensives with disproportinate septal hypertrophy(DSH) and in 20 normal controls. In conventional 12 leads electrocardiograms, abmormal Q waves were seen only in 6 cases of HOCM and none in the remadinder. The R waves were tallest in leads V4 in 6 cases(33%) of HOCM, 3(15%) hypertensives with DSH, and 4(20%) of the controls. The correlations of the QRS voltages with echocardiographically measured left ventricular dimension, interventricular septal thickness and left ventricular mass were significant in the hypertensives with DST and normal controls, but insignificant in patients with HOCM. We conclude that these electrocardiographic differences in patients with HOCM from the others would be caused by uneven distribution of hypertrophied muscle mass in the left ventricule and/or by the altered depolarization in hypertrophied cardiac muscles.

To make an accurate diagnosis of esophageal rupture during balloon dilatation without the help of esophagograph, an infusion pump, a pressure transducer and a radiopaque esophageal balloon were connected through a three-way connector. The pressure transducer was connected consecutively to an amplifier, a differentiator and a speaker to detect a pressure drop in the esophageal balloon. Under fluoroscopic monitoring, a radiopaque balloon catheter was inserted in the mid-thoracic esophagus of 30 rabbits and inflated with air until the esophagus was ruptured. A pressure drop in the balloon at the time of esophageal rupture was not only recorded graphically, but also was identified through a speaker. To examine esophageal rupture grossly, the rabbits were sacrificed after esophagography. We could detect the time of esophageal rupture during balloon dilatation in all rabbits accurately by observing the pressure drop on the pressure recorder and by hearing the sound made on a speaker. In 8 patients with esophageal stricture, a deflated radiopaque balloon catheter was inserted to the position inside the narrowing point and inflated by injecting air until the 'hourglass' deformity created by the stricture disappeared from the balloon contour which the pressure change in the balloon was monitored with a pressure recorder. The balloon pressures at the time of disappearance of the "hourglass" deformity from the balloon contour ranged from 200 mmHg to 2000 mmHg in 8 patients with esophageal strictures. Esophageal ruptured did not occur in these patients. In conclusion, our results indicate that this new method is not only safe but promising for patients in the future with esophageal strictures. First, it would reduce the chance of mediastinitis in patients of esophageal rupture. Second, esophageal balloon dilatation can be performed more effectively and safely. Third, it is cost-effective. Forth, radiation esposure to the patient can be reduced.
