Inflammatory polyposis of the colon is rare portion of the colon polyp entity. We experienced three patieats who suffered from colitis of unknown'etiology and discovered membranous retkular with/ without filiform polyp in the distal sigmoid colon of the them. Case 1, 56-year-old female, combined with basaloid cercinoma of the rectal canal that confirmed by pathology after abdominoperineal resection. So we obtained specimen of inflammtory polyp end tried to evaluate the mechanism of it. We found healed ulcer under the mucosal bridge. Case 2. 55-year-old male, had been suffered from irritable bowel syndrome. Prior to visit outpatient clinic, he complained tenesmus with diarrhea for a week. Inflammatory polyp was discovered by colonoacopy but his symptoms relieved by tranqulizers only. Case 3. 57-year-old male, has been a good health. He undertook colonoscopy for routine check thst revealed membranous reticular with filiform inflammatory polyp from distal sigmoid colon to hepatic flexure. Such shape of inflammatory polyp was not documented in Korea, so we reported three cases of it with review of the literature.

The primary aims of fracture treatment include the restoration of normal anatomy and a return of function to the injuried as early as possible. In pilon fracture, various methods of treatment were developed to accomplish this purpose. Fibular fixstion is a rarely accepted mehtod in the treatment of pilon fractures because it can't provide rigid internal fixation, But it might be indicated when an open wound was : present medially over the distal tibia, the ligamentous attachments of distal fibula and medial malleolus to talus and calcaneus and of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis are largely intict. Utilizing these attachment, Fibular fixation can stabilize comminuted fractures of distal tibia affecting ankle joint. This procedure is so effective and simple The author has used this technique in three instances for two years with excellent results. This is not an original method, but worthy of being remindful of the literature.

Most of pneumoconiosis found in Korea can be categorized in coal worker's pneumoconiosis. However, in recent years, pneumoconiosis has been frequently found in the workers of manufacturing factories. Accordingly, this study was carried out to investigate relationship of dust exposure history and development and progress of pneumoconiosis. Chest radiographs, history of dust exposure, and other data of 144 workers, who were diagnosed as suspecter pneumoconiosis (0/l) or pneumoconiosis in special health examination center in Incheon from 1986 to 1996, were reviewed. The results were as follows ; 1. According to the type of main exposure, most common type of exposure was foundry dust(93workers, 64.6%), followed by welding fume(16workers, 11.1%), talc dust, lime dust and etc. 2. Among 144 workers, the history of dust exposure was investigated in 86 workers. Mean ages of 86 workers at the present study, initial exposure to the dusts, and at the time of initial diagnosis as having pneumoconiosis were 52.1, 29.1 and 46.5 years, respectively. The mean duration of exposure was 17.3 years. 3. Comparing the type of main exposure with dust exposure history, initially exposed age of welders, foundry workers, workers exposed to coal dust and other dusts were 24.6, 30.7, 28.0 and 28.5 years, respectively. Ages at the time of diagnosis as having pneumoconiosis of welders, foundry workers, coal dust and other dusts were 41.3, 49.3, 46.4 and 44.1 years, respectively. The duration of exposure to main dust of welders, foundry workers, workers exposed to coal dust and other dusts were 16.8, 18.2, 13.3 and 11.6 years, respectively. Therefore initially exposed age was significant difference between the welders and the foundry workers (p<.05). Age which was diagnosed pneumoconiosis was significant difference between the welders, workers exposed to other dusts and the foundry workers (p<.01). And exposure duration of main dust was significant difference between the workers exposed to other dusts and foundry workers (p<.01) 4. Initially diagnosed X-ray category of the workers were category 0/l (76workers, 52.8%), 1/0 (35workers, 24.3%) Therefore, workers' pneumoconiosis of manufacturing factories was mild, relatively. And there was no significant difference between initially diagnosed X-ray category of the workers and dust exposure history. 5. Among 97 workers, who could follow up more than 1 year, 60 workers(61.9%) were not changed, 24 workers (24.7%) were progressed, 13 workers (13.4%) were improved in their initially diagnosed X-ray category. Among 11 welders, initially diagnosed X-ray category of 5 welders(45.5%) were improved and of only 1 welder was progressed. But, among 19 workers exposed to other dusts, 10 (52.6%) workers were progressed and none of them were improved. 6. Among 53 workers, who were Initially diagnosed X-ray category was 0/l, 12 workers (22.6%) were progressed and 5 workers (9.4%) were improved in their initially diagnosed X-ray category. And among 40 workers, who were initially diagnosed X-ray category was 1, 12 workers(30.0%) were progressed and 7 workers(17.5%) were improved. Above results suggest that not a few workers of manufacturing factories have pneumoconiosis and their pneumoconiosis is progressed. Therefore, we have to prepare management plan and to study epidemiologic findings of pneumoconiosis with workers of manufacturing factories.

Although extrahepatic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma are frequent as about 64%, implants involving the peritoneum are rare. We presented a cases, whieh is hepatocellular carcinoma with metastasis to visceral peritoneum revealing multiple, hard, variable-sized and nodular mass including large mass over 10 cm in size. The presence of tumor was diagnosed by serum alpha fetoprotein, abdaminal CT, celiac and SMA angiography and biopsy with laparoscopy.

The recent development of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) now permits the collection of pure human pancreatic secretions via duodenoscopic cannulation. Study objectives are evaluation of exocrine pancreatic function and analysis of pure pancreatic juice collected by use of ERCP technique in subjects without pancreatic disease. From March to July 1993, we performed ERCP and collection of pure pancreatic juice in 10 patients without evidence of pancreatic disease. (continue...)
