Surgery is the only hope to cure gastric cancer. The aim of surgery is the complete removal of the tumor (UICC RO-resection), which is known to be the only treatment modality proven effective and the most important treatment-related prognostic factor. The type of surgical treatment for gastric cancer is determined by the patient's medicosurgical status and the stage of disease. Improved survival and quality of life(QOL) are the major criteria for the therapeutic strategy. For patients with early gastric cancer, minimal invasive surgery is attempted for the improvement of QOL. Minimal invasive surgery can be performed only when there is no evidence for residual disease, especially in lymphnodes. Therefore, precise prediction and selection of node-negative patients is important for the application of minimal invasive surgery. However, long-term survival data are needed for these new techniques to become more generally accepted. For patients with advanced gastric cancer, aggressive and extended surgical approaches are recommended for the improvement of survival. Distal subtotal gastrectomy is the procedure of choice whenever tumor-free margin can be obtained, with the exception of proximal tumors that can be treated by total gastrectomy. Extended lymphadenectomy should be the choice of lymphadenectomy for experienced surgeons with a low morbidity and mortality. If a surgeon can perform combined resection of adjacent organs safely, it is recommended when a direct invasion is suspicious. Distal pancreatectomy should be avoided unless direct invasion is definite. Splenectomy for the purpose of lymph node dissection is be mandatory, and surgeons should consider preservation of the spleen when there is no definite splenic hilar lymph node enlargement or any direct invasion to the spleen. Cytoreductive surgery with intraperitoneal chemotherapy is a useful and promising procedure for the treatment of peritoneal metastasis. The therapeutic approach should be stratified according to the patient's status, tumor status,and QOL after resection. Above all, the treatment strategy should be specific and tailored to each patient for the improved survival and QOL.

Attentional processes facilitate cognitive and behavioral performance in several ways. Attention serves to reduce the amount of information to receive. Attention enables humans to direct themselves to appropriate aspects of external environmental events and internal operations. Attention facilitates the selection of salient information and the allocation of cognitive processing appropriate to that information. Attention is not a unitary process that can be localized to a single neuroanatomical region. Before the cortical registration of sensory information, activation of important subcortical structures occurs, which is called as an orienting response. Once sensory information reaches the sensory cortex, a large number of perceptual processes occur, which provide various levels of perceptual resolution of the critical(heteromodal) systems inferior parietal and temporal lobes. At this stage, the processing characteristics can be modified, and the biases of the system have a direct impact on attentional selection. Information flow has been traced through sensory analysis to a processing stage that enables the new. Information to be focused and modified in relation to preexisting biases. The limbic and paralimbic system play significant roles on modulating attentional response. It is labeled with affective salience and is integrated according to ongoing pressures from the motivational drive system of the hypothalamus. The salience of information greatly influences the allocation of attention. The frontal lobe operate resporse selection system with a reciprocal interaction with both the attention system of the parietal lobe and the limbic system. In this attentional process, the search with the spatial field is organized and a sequence of attentional responses is generated. Affective, motivational and appectitive impulses from limbic system and hypothalamus trigger response intention, preparation, planning, initiation and control of frontal lobe on this process. The reticular system, which produces ascending activation, catalyzes the overall system and increases attentional capacity. Also additional energetic pressures are created by the hypothalamus. As psychophysiological measurement, skin conductance, pupil diameter, muscle tension, heart rate, alpha wave of EEG can be used. Event related potentials also provide physiological evidence of attention during information process. N1 component appears to be an electrophysiological index of selective attention. P3 response is developed during the attention related to stimulus discrimination, evaluation and response.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a heterogenous group of inherited disorder, which has abnormalities in the synthesis of collagen. Among variable clinical manifestations, orthopaedic clinical features are laxity of ligament and deformities arising from frequent fractures or angulation due to skeletal fragility. We had managed 4 cases of osteogensis imperfecta, which were belonged to type IV-B in two cases, type I-A in one, and type I-B in remained one by Sillence classification and they had suffered from recent fractures or deformities due to previous fractures in the long bones of the lower extremities. These patients had been treated with various types of intramedullary nails, such as Bailey-Dubow extensile rod. Rush rod and Kuntcher nail, and the result of intramedullary nailing lead to improvement of walking ability.
