BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and safety of the anterosuperior deltoid splitting approach for fixation of displaced proximal humeral fractures by analyzing the surgical outcomes. METHODS: Twenty-three patients who could be followed-up for at least 8 months after the treatment of displaced proximal humeral fractures through the anterosuperior deltoid splitting approach were enrolled. We evaluated the reduction of the fractures and surgery-related complications at the last follow-up using X-ray results and clinical outcomes comprising the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) scoring system and the Korean Shoulder Society (KSS) score. RESULTS: At the last follow-up of patients treated using the anterosuperior deltoid splitting approach for internal fixation of proximal humeral fractures, we found 22 cases (95.6%) of bone union, a mean UCLA score of 28.3 (range, 15 to 34) and a mean KSS score of 82.1 (range, 67 to 95). Various surgery-related complications were noted; a case of varus malunion after fracture displacement, a case of nonunion, a case of delayed union, two cases of impingement, and a case of partial axillary nerve injury, which recovered completely through the follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Plate fixation using the anterosuperior deltoid splitting approach could be another reliable option for treating displaced proximal humeral fractures.

Bezoyl peroxide, a powerful oxidizing agent, has been uaed topically in the treatment of acne vulgaris as a cream or lotion and has been shown to he effective for this codition. In 1972 Fulton emphaaized the importance of the vehicles used to obtain. maximum potential of benzoyl peroxide and for this, the gel formulation has been examined in many clinical trials. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the therapeutic effect of Fanoxyl 2.5, a 2.5% . benzayl peraxide gel, in patients with acne vulgaris. A total of 31 patients entered this study at the Departrnent of Dermatology, Jeoul National University Hospital rluring 3 rnanths period, from Decemher, 1978 through February, 1979, All patienta were instructed to apply Fanoxyl 2.5' on their affected areas once or twice a day and the nurnber of lesions on two or three t fixed areas were counted before and onee weekly after initation of the treatment. The reaults observed in the 3I patients were as follaws; 1. The percentage decrease in total nurnber of lesions in 4 weeks after treatment was 56.9%. 2. The authors could follow up for 6 weeks in 6 cases. In 6 case, the mean percentage in total number of lesions in 6 weeks after treatment was 81.7%. 3. Clesed and open eomedones were gradually eliminated; and their numbers were decreased in 4 weeks after treatment by 46.5% and 56.8% respeetiveIy. The papules were rapidly eliminated and their numbers were decreased in 4 weeka, after treatment by 79.8%. 4. Although most patients felt a mild burning sensation and tightness at the begining of the treatment, only a minority of the patients complained of discomfort due to pain(l case), erytherna(l case), tightness(2 cases),burning sensation (1 case), scaling(1 case). But all were tolerable without taking any specific measures or discontinuance of application. In one case, contact dermatitis developed after 4 weeks treatment. The authors concluded through this experiment that Panoxyl 2.5' (2.5% benzoyl peroxide gel) is a very effective local therapeutic agent in the treatment of acne vulgaris patients.

PURPOSE: We studied results of the communited distal radius fracture treated with allogenic cancellous bone graft and volar locking plate in the elderly. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 29 cases of communited distal radius fracture treated with allogenic cancellous bone graft and volar locking plate from April 2009 to April 2013. Fracture was classified according to AO/OTA classification. Postoperative clinical evaluation was performed with measurement of wrist range of motion (ROM) at last follow-up, modified Mayo wrist scoring system (MMWS), and visual analogue pain scale (VAS). Radiologic evaluation was performed with measurement of radial length on immediate postoperation and last follow-up, radial inclination, volar tilt and ulnar variance checked at the last follow-up using Sarmiento criteria. RESULTS: Using the MMWS, 13 cases were classified as 'good', 10 'fair', and 5 'normal'. The average wrist ROM was 88.5% for flexion, 92.2% for extension, 90.5% for adduction, and 94.0% for abduction. The average VAS was 1.7. On the last follow-up, average radius length, radial inclination and volar tilt did not show statistically significant improvement (p>0.05) compared to immediate post operation measurements, and according to Sarmiento criteria, 5 cases were classified as 'good', 14 'fair', and 7 'normal'. CONCLUSION: Treatment of severe communited distal radius fracture accompanied by bone defect with volar locking plate and allogenic cancellous bone graft is a satisfying and effective treatment method in the elderly.

The medical educators in Korean are acutely aware of the need for the revision of the medical education programs in Korea which have many drawbacks. In planning for a new medical curriculum, we examined the problems of the traditional curricula of medical schools in Korea, followed by a review of the "integrated" curricula of other countries. Finally, we have chosen a program that we consider best adaptable to the medical schools in Korea. We believe that the objectives of the new medical curriculum should be to prepare the student to acquire sufficient knowledge, skills, and attitudes which on graduation will allow him to further pursue various specialities of medicine, including areas of basic medicine and a career as a medical scientist. Our approach to medical education in that of (a) integrated teaching, (b) medically and patient oriented, (c) problem-oriented, (d) student-centered, (e) identifying both the core and marginal material in course content and (f) encouraging and motivating for self-learning. The major portion of the program for the new curriculum includes eight weeks of introductory course followed by 52 for the body system courses, which run on an interdisciplinary basis between basic sciences and clinical disciplines during the first two years. The student will then enter the final two years of clerkship with various clinical rotations. We also propose the establishment of a learning center where most of the audio-visual materials used in the curriculum will be shelved. Finally, We propose the administrative structure of the medical programme which will allow the interdisciplinary approach to medical education.

We report a case of congenital giant pigmented nevus with malignant melanoma of brain in a 14-year-old male patient. He had giant pigmented nevus on the back and neck, and multiple satellite lesions over the whole body since birth. One year prior to visit to our hospital, the patient suffered from various neurologie symptoms including headache, nausea, vomiting, seizure and right side motor weakness. Flistologic findings of skin lesions were benign nevocytic nevi. Computed tomogram of brain demonstrated increased densities in the both fronto-parietal leptameninges and brain parenchyme. Histologic findings of brain parenchyme by stereotaxic long needle biopsy showed the infiltration of melanin containing atypical melanocytes. There was no evidence of malignant melanoma at other organs. All of these findings suggested that origin of malignant melanoma of brain parenchyme was leptomeninges rather than skin.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Studies in patients with mitral valve prolapse syndrome (MVPS) have shown the coexistence of various forms of autonomic dysfunction, and so this is an area that requires further investigation. METHODS AND MATERIALS: The study group consisted of 65 patients (36 men and 29 women), aged 16 to 43 years (mean+/-SD, 28+/-8) with symptomatic, echocardiographically proven mitral valve prolapse (MVPS) who were free of other organic heart diseases and arrhythmias. In a prospective study, heart rate variability (HRV) indexes were calculated from 24-hour Holter recordings obtained during normal daily activity and plasma norepinephine was measured, and then these data were compared among the study group according to clinic heart rate (HR). RESULTS: The study group was divided into below 60 bpm (group 1: n=13), 60 - 80 bpm (group 2: n=36) and over 80 bpm (group 3: n=16) on the basis of clinic HR. These patient groups were matched with respect to age and gender. There were significant difference in SDNNIDX, rMSSD and pNN50 between these groups (p=0.005, 0.009 and 0.002 respectively), and these HRV measures correlated inversely with clinic HR (p<0.01). As clinic HR increased, there was a tendency for plasma norepinephrine concentration to also rise (p<0.05), but there was no statistical significant difference between these groups. CONCLUSION: Our data suggests that MVPS may have subgroups of HRV, reflecting cardiac autonomic modulation, according to clinic HR.
