We observed a 51-year-old male, who developed depigmented patches on the lower abdomen after photochemotherapy(PUVA) of psoriasis without evidence of phototoxic reaction. The depigmented patches did not orginate from the sites of previous psoriatic lesions. Fontana-Masson stain of the biopsy specimen revealed nearly absent melanin pigments in the epidrmis of the hypopigmented patch, while lots of pigments were obsereved on the surrounding hyperpigmented area. Electron micrograph showed no melanocytes in the hypopigmented patch. Thus we report this case as having vitiliginous patches induced by photochemotherapy of psoriasis.

We experienced the 17 hands of 11 patients with Dupuytren disease, which was known as relatively rare in orientals. Retrospectively, we analyse it and the results were followings; l. Among 11 patients, 10 patients were male and average age was 62.5 years (49 to 77 years) 2. Most (15 hands, 88%) of patients had symptoms of flexion contracture, nodule and contracted cord, simultaneously. 3. Occupation of patients was agricultural laborer in 9 patients (82%). 4. In 9 patients(82%); individual habit of alcoholic drinking, more than 3 times per week, and smoking, 1 package per day, over 20 years more, was observed. 5. In 15 hands (88%), ulnar side of fingers (4th+5th, 5th only or 3rd+4th+5th)was involved. 6. Surgical treatment was performed in 9 hands of 7 patients, with results of excellent in 6 hands (67%) and no recurrence, in average follow up 2.6 years (1.5 year to 3.7 year)

With the recent development of tumor prosthesis, limb salvage technique has attributed to the preservation of the limb function in patients with malignant bone tumors around the knee without substantial difference of local recurrence and the survival rate. From Feb., 1991 to Sep., 1992, 9 patients were treated with limb salvage operation with total knee arthroplasty due to the malignant bone tumor around the knee at Dept. of Orthopedic Surgery, Kyungpook National University Hospital. We applied the above procedure mainly to young adult whose tumor was expected to be excised wide marginally without damaging major neurovascular structures. We evaluated the functional status of all 9 patients(4 osteosarcoma, 2 chodrosarcoma, 2 malignant fibrohistiocytoma, 1 malignant giant cell tumor) to estimate the efficacy of limb salvage operation with tumor prosthesis total knee arthroplasty. Mean follow up period was 10 months. Primary tumor site was 4 in distal femur, 5 in proximal tibia and stage was 4 IIa, 5 IIb. Range of the motion of knee is maximum 0°

The complications of Salter's innominate osteotomy in the treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip were avascular necrosis of the femoral head, hematoma, rotation of distal pelvic fragment, infection, fracture of femoral shaft and redislocation. Among them the causes of redislocation were technical failure, immobilization failure and absorption the bone graft, etc. We experienced a case of redislocation after open reduction and Salter s innominate osteotomy in congenital dislocation of the hip which was induced by a foreign body reaction to the suture material.

Epidermal cysts may develop on any part of the body. Most of them are thought to occur following inflammation of the epithelium of the hair follicle. These found on the palm and sole where the hair follicle is absent have been considered to developmant of following a traumatic inclusion of the epidermis into the Dermis. Because only a few cases w re known to be related to preceding trauma, the latter assumption has been questioned. Reerly, the HPV-like virions and papillomavirus genus-speciric antigen were detected in the epicrml cyst of the sole in some reports. 1 our cases of plantar epidermal cyst were studied for the presence of human papillomavirus using conventional histologic and immunohistochemical examinator Histologic examination showed three characteristic findings, that is, intracytoplasmic eosinophil odies in the cyst wall, parakeratosis within the cyst caviti, and vacuolar structures disperse the wall and cavity. In all of the cases, immunohistochernical staining was positive for papule evirus antigen. These findings suggest an etiologic as.iation between the papillomavirus infection and plantar epidermal cyst.

Rectus sheath hematoma of the abdominal wall is a well-recognized, but uncommon condition, caused by a tear in an epigastric vessel and characterized by sudden onset of severe abdominal pain and palpable mass. In most cases, a precipitating cause can be demonstrated. Causes include external trauma, strenuous activities, coughing, lifting, sneezing, vomiting, straining while urinating or defecating, golfing, pregnancy and the puerperium, anticoagulation therapy, infection, chronic diesase, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, prior paracentesis or laparotomy, inadequate hemostasis or excessive retraction in surgery, and idiopathy. Unfortunately, the correct diagnosis often is missed, and the hematoma is found only during an exploratory laparotomy. Treatment should be conservative in most instances. Although the mortality rate for patients with rectus sheath hematoma is low, the condition may be fatal if the volume of the hemorrhage is large and if treatment is delayed. Hence, it should be included in the differential diagnosis of any patient who presents to the emergency department with acute onset of abdominal pain. Our purpose is to familiarlize emergency physicians with the pathophysiology, the diagnosis, and the treatment of rectus sheath hematoma. We describe a patient with fatal rectus sheath hematoma presenting to the emergency department and give a review of the literature.

Supracondylar fracture of the humerus is the most common fracture about the elbow in children and much has been written about its treatment and the prevention of both Volkmann's ischemia with contracture and the nerve injuries associated with these fractures. However, it is still one of the most difficult fractures to manage and is frequently associated with significant residual complications. Among these complications, the change in carrying angle is the most common one. In a retrospective survey of 102 children with supracondylar fractures of the humerus treated at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery of Kyungpook National University Hospital, 68 cases were found to have sufficient clinical and roentgenographic data to classify the fractures and to determine the carrying angles at end result. The results are as follows: 1. The mean age of the 102 patients at the time of fracture was 7.3 years (range, 2 to 17 years), and the fractures were on the left side in 67.6%, and male comprised 70.1%. 2, Of all fractures, 98% were the extension type, and the most common direction of initial displacement of the distal fragment was postero-medial. 3. According to Arnold et al classification, fractures with moderate varus or valgus displacement were the most common types in our series. 4. In the associated injuries with fractures, there were 5 nerve palsies and 5 fractures at the other sites. 5. In our series, the carrying angle of the opposite side of the fractured elbow ranged from 2 to 23 degrees of valgus angulation, with a mean of 9.2 degrees. 6. The decrease in carrying angle was most common in fractures with postero-medial displacement. 7, As far as the position of immobilization after reduction of the fracture is concerned, there was less tendency of decreasing the carrying angle in pronated group. 8. Most cases were treated by conservative method. There was no significant difference in change of carrying angle between the cases treated by closed reduction and those by skeletal traction.
