Chilaiditis syndrome is very rare clinical condition that interposed of the hepatic flexure of large bowels between the liver and diaphragm. Clinically it is characterized by abdominal pain that becomes increasingly worse during the day and is often accentuated by deep breathing. On radiologic studies, it shows gas within the hepatic flexure interposed between the liver and diaphragm, which is simulating a pneumoperitoneum. A case was admitted at emergency care center of Yeungnam university hospital and we report it.

Ulcerative colitis is diffuse inflammatory condition at mucosal lining of the colon & rectum and rare in Korea but there are no pathognomonic features or specific diagnostic tests. However, recently the diagnostic methods for ulcerative colitis are much developed and the incidence of ulcerative colitis is increased in Korea. Therefor, an analysis of 31 cases of ulcerative colitis which was diagnosed and treated in the department of the YeungNam University Hospital from May l983 to April 1991 was reviewed. The results were as following: 1) The sex distribution assumed a ratio of 1 to 2.1 and the age distribution was vqriable but the most prevalent age group was 5th decade(29.0%). 2) The most common clinical manifestations were abdominal pain & bloody diarrhea. 3) As to the extent of disease determined by the barium enema & endoscopy, rectum or rectosigmoid colon was involved in majority of the cases 22.6%, 41.9 (respectively). 4) Significant laboratory findings were elevated ESR, anemia, leukocytosis, hypoalbuminemia. 5) The endoscopic examination was performed in all 31 cases and showed sinificant findings such as hyperemia, mucosai edema, superficial ulceration & mucosal friability. 6) 23 of 26 cases treated by sulfasalazine medication showed improved, and 3 cases were improved by steriod medication and the surgical operation was indicated in 1 case.
