The congenital ball-and-socket ankle joint is a rare condition and is associated with congenital shortening of the lower extrimity and various skeletal abnormalities of the foot. This disease entity was reported in the German literature by Politzer in 1931 and in the English literature by Lamb in 1958. Several series have been reported since, suggesting that the condition may not be as rare as generally thought. This case is, to our knowledge, the first reported in this country.

Total cystectomy was performed to the 40 patients with urinary bladder tumor who were found perivesical fat infiltration by computerized tomography. 25 patients were previously untreated, and 15 patients had undergone transurethral resection or biopsy of the tumor before computerized tomography. The histopathological stage was compared to the preoperative computerized tomography stage. In pathologic specimen, perivesical fat infiltration was found in 62.5% of the cases, whereas perivesical fat infiltration was not found in 37.5% of the cases. In untouched tumors or after transurethral resection computerized tomography accuracy demonstrated no significant difference.

A clinical observation was made on the 236 patients who had undergone transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TUR) between Jan. 1990. and Feb. 1996. in the Department of Urology, Korea Cancer Center focusing on complications. The mean operating time was 59.0 minutes(n=400). The most common immediate complication was bleeding(1.8%), and the remainder was nonurologic fever(0.8%). The delayed complication was urethral stricture(1.0%) requiting visual urethrotomy. The immediate postoperative morbidity was 2.5% and risk factors for immediate morbidity after TUR were operating time longer than 60 minutes and tumor, invading the muscle or more deeply(p<0.05, by Chi-square test). The delayed morbidity was 1. 0% and the only risk factor for delayed morbidity after TUR was the number of ~IJR more than 2(p<0.05, by Chi-square test). Careful attention to surgical details and indications is needed to reduce the amount and significance of the postoperative morbidity.

Our experience of surgical management of 20 adrenal tumors was present during the period from June, 1988 to May, 1993. The results of clinical study were as follows ; 1. Average age of patients was 40.9 years with the highest incidence in sixth decade occupying 40% and male to female ratio was 1:1 and right to left ratio was equal also. 2. The adrenal tumors consist of 8 adrenocortical adenoma( including 3 primary aldosteronisms and 1 Cushing syndrome), 4 adrenocortical carcinoma(including 1 Cushing syndrome), 7 pheochromocytomas and l neuroblastoma. 3. The 11 functioning adrenal tumors( including 4 adrenocortical adenomas, 1 adrenocortica1 carcinoma and 6 pheochromocytomas) showed specific symptoms and signs and the majority symptom and sign of the 9 non-functioning adrenal tumors( including 4 adrenocortical adenomas, 3 adrenocortical carcinomas, 1 neuroblastoma and 1 pheochromocytoma) showed abdominal discomfort and pain. 4. For initial diagnosis of the adrenal tumors, USG, CT, MRI and angiography are reliable but IVP was reliable in large adrenal tumor 5. The surgical approaches were transperitoneal in 18 patients and retroperitoneal in 2 patients and postoperative surgical complication occurred in 3 patients of transperitoneal approaches that were prolonged ileus, spleen injury and pancreatic injury with pleural effusion.6. The tumor masses were 12gm to 4,000gm in weight (mean: 616gm). The adrenal benign and malignant tumor were significantly different in weight ( 120gm : 1817gm).
