Primary pyogenic psoas abscess is rare lesion, and often is not suspected. Reasons for delayed diagnosis are unfamility with the lesion and the fact that symptoms often resemble those of primary disease of the hip. We present a case of primary pyogenic psoas abscess in child, which was diagnosed by MRI, and completely recovered after surgical treatment.

Fracture healing in the hand is not an isolated goal. The functional end result is of paramount importance. When the correct techniques are used, miniplate fixation for metacarpal and phalangeal fractures of the hand provides rigid internal fixation, stabilizes the skeleton, preserves the gliding tissue, and therefore allowing immediate active range of motion exercise as well as minimizing joint and tendon complications. The authors have reviewed 39 patients, 52 cases of metacarpal and phalangeal fractures of the hand which were treated with miniplate in the department of orthopaedic surgery, Chang Ang Gil hospital from Sep. 1989 to Feb. 1993. The following results were obtained. 1. Miniplate fixation, in terms of fracture reduction and maintenance, allows on accurate anatomic reduction with rigid fixation which in turn affords on early mobilization without loss of reduction alignment. 2. The roentgenographic union was obtained within 15.1 weeks in average. The mean total acitve motion at the fractured finger was 230°. The complication rate was 11.5%. 3. In the treatment of metacarpal and phalangeal fractures of the hand, especially fractures of metacarpal bones, fixation with miniplate is considered to be an useful method in terms of getting fracture union and good range of motion with relative low complication rates.

Neurilemmoma is the most frequent solitary tumor of the peripheral nerves. It may occur anywhere in the body, but their occurrence in the penis is rare and unusual. Treatment of this lesion is simple surgical excision. We report a case of neurilemmoma of the penis in a 27 year-old male and review the literature.
