1.Conservative Treatment of Femoral Shaft Fractures in Children
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1995;30(4):997-1003
Forty-nine children between the ages of 2 and 10 years, treated conservatively for fomoral shaft fracture, were studied clinically and radiographically to access the complications and related factors. They had an average follow-up of 48.8months(range, 12 to 77months). 35 percent of the patients had significant associated injuries. Leg length discrepancies of 10mm to 20mm are observed in 5 cases(10%) of the patients. The average overlap of bone ends at union was 6.5mm. The average growth acceleration was 8.8mm regardless of sex, age, upper limb dominance, fracture site or shape, but was promoted by overriding of the fracture ends at union, There were 16 cases(32%) of excessive angular deformity of 10° to 25° after union. However all deformities were remodelled enough to give normal alignment of the joint surface. The growth plate played on important role in the remodelling process.

Apert described acrocephalosyndactyly as a clinical entity in 1906. At first he included a patient with craniofacial deformities combined with syndactyly of both the upper and lower extremities. This is a rare congenital disturbance in the growth of bone and soft tissue affecting principally the head, the hands and the feet. More than 200 cases have been reported in the world literature, and three cases in Korea. Authors experienced one case of the classic pattern of Apert's syndrome and treated surgically for syndsctyly.

The ankle stability has a vital role in normal gait and walking. An accurate and anatomic reduction with rigid fixation has been emphasized as important regimens as well as early motion and weight bearing exercises. The authors analysed 90 cases(88 patients) of ankle fractures which were admitted and treated in orthopedic department, Chung-Ang Gil General Hospital from March 1987 to May 1992. Males were affected 1.7times than female and the age group of third and fourth decades constituted 60.2%. The most common cause was vehicle accident(35 cases; 38.9%). According to Lauge-Hansen classification, supination-external rotation type was most common(32 cases; 35.6%). Accoompanyng injuries were noted on 45 cases(50%) and fractures in lower extremities were most common(17 cases; 18.9%). According to meyer's assessment of result, the clinical and radiologic results were better in operative method than conservative ones. From the evaluation of clinical results, anatomic reduction and rigid internal fixation of lateral malleoli and distal tibiofibular joint are more important factors. Complications are resulted in 19cases(21.1%) and traumatic arthritis is the most common (10 cases; 11.1%). The extent and degree of injury was an important factor in an overall results of treatment as well as the anatomic reduction of fracture alignment.

Acute suppurative arthritis in neonates is very difficult to diagnose early since it does not show typical clinical picture and as a results, delayed diagnosis and improper treatment often leads to permanent disability in patient. To prevent the sequelae follwing acute suppurative arthritis, early surgical treatment and administration of antibiotics are essential. We analysed 15 affected joints in 11 neonates less than 1 month old who were treated by surgical treatment and administration antibiotics. The results were as follows. 1) As for the specific joint involved, those affecting hip joint were most frequent(8 joint: 53%), followed by knee joint(5 joints: 33%) and shoulder(2 joints: 14%). Acute osteomyelitis was simultaneously occurred in 10 joints(67%). 2) As for clinical symptoms and signs, 10 cases (91%) showed limited range of motion with the clinical symptoms and signs similar to neonatal sepsis. 3) As for the causative organism, Gram-negative bacilli was the most frequent one(40%), followed by Staphylococcus aureus(27%) and candida albicans. No organisms were identifiable in four joints(27%). 4) As for the sensitivity test to antibiotics, group of staphylococcus aureus was found sensitive to newer cephalosporins while those of gram-negative bacilli to amikacin in 83%. 5) Average time between the first clinical symptom and operation was 5.14days. 6) The hip joint had yielded most complications(5 cases) followed by knee and shoulder joint, one for each. The accompanying osteomyelitis and delayed treatment were contributing factors to complications.

PURPOSE: This study was to examine the relationships between knowledge with same sub-areas of education needs and adherence to self-management guidelines, and to investigate the factors that influence adherence. METHOD: One hundred eleven patients with terminal stage of kidney failure were conveniently selected from a university hospital in Incheon. RESULTS: The level of knowledge was high, with a mean score of 15.25. The level of adherence to self-management guidelines was low, with a mean score of 64.53. The patients' education needs were high. The significant influencing factors on adherence were gender, educational level, and two sub-areas of knowledge, 'exercise and daily life' and 'follow-up care and treatment'. CONCLUSION: Relationships between knowledge, education needs, and adherence should be further examined before developing and implementing intervention programs for adherence to treatment guideline in hemodialysis patients.

PURPOSES: This study examined the relationship between risk behaviors and sexual knowledge, sexual attitudes, and sexual experiences of male high school students. METHOD: A cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted. Data were collected from 2 male high schools in metropolitan Gwangju. Five hundred forty-eight boys were enrolled in this study. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, t-test or ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation were used for data analysis. RESULTS: The mean sexual knowledge and sexual experience scores were relatively low, 0.60 out of 1 point, and 0.75 out of 4 points, respectively. Three attitude types of the students were identified: permissible, conservative and pleasure seeking attitude. The score of the permissible type was affected by the subjects' exposure to pornographic material. The score of the conservative type was affected by alcohol consumption and acquaintances with a heterosexual friend. The score of the pleasure seeking type was affected by their exposure to pornographic material, alcohol consumption, smoking, going to a video-room, and acquaintances with a heterosexual friend. There was a negative correlation between the permissible type and sexual knowledge, and a positive correlation between the conservative and pleasure seeking types and sexual experience. CONCLUSION: Male high school students who have been exposed to risk behaviors have a higher likelihood of indulging in sexual activity, and the pleasure seeking type appears to be related to sexual experience. An educational program may be needed to prevent risky behaviors and sexual experiences in male high school students considering their sexual attitude type.
