Rotator cuff tear is a common reason for shoulder pain. Although the surgical technique of rotator cuff repair is developing, high retear rate requires additional supplementary methods. Among these supplementary methods, as a kind of biologic augmentation, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been spotlighted and has recently been studied by many researchers. PRP, a concentrate of platelet extract obtained from whole blood, contains numerous growth factors. As this is known to play an important role in the tissue recovery process, it had been used for research in a variety of fields including orthopedics. Use of PRP has been attempted in surgical treatments of rotator cuff tear for better results; however, only a few large-scale research studies on the effect of PRP have been reported. Clinical results of each study are also variable. Therefore research using large-scale randomized, double-blind trials should be conducted in order to prove the application range, safety, and clinical effects of PRP.

Statisticsl observation was made on 404 patients who had been referred for consultation to the Department of Dermatology during their admission in Seoul National University Children's Hospital from October 1985 to March 1987. The results were as follows : 1. The consulted pstients were 404 among 126,622 inpatients(0.32%). 2. The most frequent age group was below 1 year(25.0%). 3. Pediatrics was the most importnat department in the number, as well as in the rate of consulted patients to inpatients. 4. The most common 10 dermatoses were contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, drug eruption, fungal infection, viral infection, infantile eczema, benign tumor, miliaria, urticaria, and skin manifestation of systemic diseases in order of frequency. 5. The frequent causes of consultation were as follows ; the dermatologic diseases or conditions 67.6%, the diseases related to the trestment 13.4%, the skin lesions of systemic diseases 10.8%, the dermatologic tests 3.6%, and admitted to other departments with dermatologic diseases 1.2% respectively.

Normal small intestinal folds are less than 2mm in thickness and criss-cross in appearance. Many diseases of the small interstine produce an abnormality in mucosal folds, namely thickening and parallel (perpendiulcer to the bowel lumen) arrangement of folds, nodularity, destruction, and ulcer. Diseases causing submucosal edema produce regular smooth thickening whereas diseases producing submucosal hemorrhage produce regular spiky thickening. Inflammatory bowel diseases and lymphoma produce irregular (in width, or distorted or 'bent at peculiar angles to the bowel lumen) thickening nodularity of the mucosa. Severe inflammatory processes as well as malignant tumors produce mucosal destruction and ulcer. Proposed here is an approach to narrow the category of disease processes based on mucosal fold abnormality. This approach with sufficient clinical history is invaluable in the interpretation of small bowel series.
