The intestinal nematode Enterobius vermicularis is the most common metazoan endoparasite in humans, with humans being the only host. But complicated perianal granulomas due to Enterobius are unusual. The literature reports only 13 previous cases of enterobiasis presenting as perianal mass or abscess. We describe an additional case of a perianal mass caused by granulomatous inflammation containing Enterobius vermicularis eggs and dead bodies in a 7-year-old boy. The lesion was located in the anus and measured 2 1 cm. Clinical impression was lipoma and excisional biopsy was done. Microscopic examination revealed necrotizing granuloma which contained several 50~60 20~30 micrometer sized eggs which were identified as those of Enterobius vermicularis. The adult worm could not be identified with clarity due to necrosis.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) without extracorporeal circulation (ECC) is now an accepted technique of myocardial revascularization in selective cases of coronary arterial occlusive disease. We experienced a case of CABG without ECC in a 20 year old female patient with complete occlusion of the right coronary artery. Anesthesia was induced and maintained with fentanyl, midazolam and isoflurane. Nitroglycerine and dopamine were given to stabilize the hemodynamics during intra- and post-operative periods. And esmolol was administered with a loading dose of 30 mg over 1 min, followed by a continuous infusion of 50~100 g/kg/min to maintain the heart rate (50~60 beats/min) and systolic blood pressure (60~80 mmHg) during distal anastomosis. The patient was recovered uneventfully and discharged on the 8th postoperative day.

A 18-year-old male patient presented with the skin colored, dome-shaped, soft, movable mass in his left retroauriculr region. The mass has slowly increased in size since birth. Histopathologic exarnination revealed sebaceous gland, eccrine gland and crosssectioned hair in the surrounding tissue, hair shaft projected into the lumen, and laminated horny material in the cyst. Transitional zone between stratified squarnous epithelium and the wall lined by histiocytes showed homogenous degenerative change. After surgical removal of the lesion, no recurrence was observed during 15 months of follow-up.

Using the 8 strains of Vibrio vulnificus isolated from the patients with primary sepsis, the viability of Vibrio vulnificus were studied in the various range of hydrogen ion concentration. The opitimal pH range of growth was 7-9, and survived between pH 3. 6 and 12. 5 when incubated at 37C for one hour.

STATMENT OF PROBLEM: Little in known about the importance of selection of various double crowns as retainer in determining the outcome of treatment with double crown retained removable partial denture. Purpose : To obtain information about the effects and the results of this treatment modality. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study describes 61 double crown retained removable partial dentures worn by 51 patients from Samsung Medical Center, Seoul a time ranging between 6 and 48 months and evaluate occlusal contacts on the denture teeth, denture movement, incidence of denture relining, denture retention, fracture of dentures and abutments, hygiene, residual ridge inflammatory changes, number of lost abutments, interruption of denture use. RESULTS: One tenth of all the restorations were relined. Restorations in 21 arches fractured repeatedly for various reasons. There was no apparent interrelationship between fractures and the five groups. CONCLUSION: Good prognoses of removable partial dentures were shown in all groups(Kennedy Classes I, II, III, combination and few remaining abutment).
