Monostotic Fibrous dysplasia is a relatively rare condition. Three such conditions are experienced at the Dept. of Orthopedic Surgery, Han-II Hospital during the period of September 1970 to June 1972. Two of three cases were involing shaft of left and right tibia respectively, one of which was complicated by pathologic fracture. The third case was on greater trochanter of right femur. All of three cases were treated with curertage and bone graft. Excllent results were obtained.

Fracture of the shaft of the humerus had been treated by many different way, such as hanging cast, shoulder spica cast, abduction splint, and Velpeau bandage, etc, The authors have employed the new trianglar splint designed by ourselves for the 54 cases of fracture of the humeral shaft from Jan., 1965 to Oct., 1976 in the department of Orthopedic surgery of Han-il Hospital. In our experience, the triangular splint method is useful for not only fracture between the head of the humerus and supracondylar region, but also shoulder joint injuries and diseases which need firm immobilization. The triangular splint method has merits, such as spontaneous reduction by the fractured arm weight with gravity, the stability during care, relatively comfort during procedure. Satisfactory results had been obtained by the triangular splint method.

PURPOSE: We investigated the possible inhibitory effect of aspirin during the initiation and post initiating stages on N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (BBN) induced bladder carcinogenesis in female rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-five female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups. Group A received 0.05% BBN in drinking water for 12 weeks. Group B re ceived 0.05% BBN in drinking water with 0.5% aspirin in the diet for 12 weeks. Group C received control diet without added chemicals. The rats were sacrificed after 12 weeks. For identification of chemopreventive effect of aspirin, apoptosis was detected by in situ cell death detection method. The apoptotic index (AI) was calculated from the ratio of typical apoptotic cells relative to the total cells from observation of at least 1000 cells in each preneoplastic lesion among the groups. RESULTS: All cases of group A showed multiple lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia. The incidence of papilloma was 80% in group A. All cases of group B also showed multiple lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia but the incidence of papilloma was decreased to 20%. The total numbers counted of focal hyperplasia and papilloma lesions were significantly reduced in group B than in group A (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). The mean AI in group A and B sequentially increased in preneoplastic lesions, as compared to that in the normal epithelium of the rat bladder. Significant differences in AI in the lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia between group A and B were noted (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The result suggests that aspirin significantly decreases the incidence of precancerous lesions and it can act as a chemopreventive agent for precancerous lesions of urinary bladder.
