Only a few cases of cyst related to cruciate ligament were reported in the literatrure. It is not only because of rarity but also difficulty of diagnosis by conventional method. Recentely, the precise intraarticular structure of the knee joint became to be seen by introduction of MRI and arthroscope and cycts would bave been found incidentally during the workup of the internal derangement of knee. We have experienced three cases of ganglion around the cruciate ligament in the patients whose symptom was mimic of intemal derangement of knee. We excised the ganglion with good clinical results.

The status of DNA synthesis and the effect of UV radiation on the DNA synthesis were studied in mouse skin by microautoradiography. Mice exposed to 100mJ/cm of UVB were injected intradermally with tritiated thymidine, 5 minutes, 2, 6 and 24 hours after irradiation and biopsies were processed for light microscopic autoradiography, A total of 25 ICR female albino haired mice were used as subjects. We compared heavily labeled cells(>10 grains/nucleus) and sparsely labeled cells (3-10 grains/nucleus) in UVL irradiated skin with nonirradiated control skin. 1. Within 5 minutes after UVL exposure an apparent depression in the number of heavily labeled cells occurred. This reduction was statistically significant and remained so for at least six hours post,irradiation. By 24 hours after UVL exposure, the reduction was recovered to nearly control level. 2. By five minutes after UVL exposure, sparsely labeled cells were observed in basal cell layer and differentiated cell layer. The nurriber of sparsely labeled cells appeared highest at five minutes after UVL exposure and then tended to fall to nearly control level at 24 hours. This aberrant type of TdR H incorporation is thought to represent unscheduled DNA synthesis to repair pyrimidine dimers formed in UVL injured DNA molecules,

For prevention of limitation of range of motion due to arthrofibrosis of the knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, it is accepted in general that the operation should be delayed for about three weeks after injury. We studied the duration form operation to time of full range of motion, and analized the results in forty-eight patients who had undergone arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament recostruction using the autologous bone-patella tendon-bone graft and early CPM, range of motion exercise during Feb. 1991 and June 1994. The results were as follows: 1. The average interval from injury to operation were 1.3 weeks in acute injury group, 6 weeks in subacute injury group and 20.7 months in chronic group. The average interval from operation to full range of motion were 7.1 weeks in acute injury group, 5.7 weeks in subacute injury group and 3.0 weeks in chronic group. 2. In acute injury group, 14(93.3%) of 15 cases showed full extesion and only 1 case(6.7%) showed the limitation of extension less than 5 degrees. In subacute injury group, 6(85.7%) of 7 cases showed full extension but1 case(14.3%) showed the limitation of extension less than 5 degrees. On the other hand in the chronic injury group, all the 26 cases(100%) of the patients showed full extension. 3. In acute injury group, 14(93.3%) of 15 cases showed full flexion and only 1 cases(6.7%) showed the limitatin of flexion less than 5 degrees. In subacute injury group, 6(85.7%) of 7 cases showed full flexion but 1 case(14.3%) showed the limitation of flexion less than 5 degrees. On the other hand in the chronic injury group, 23(88.5%) of 26 cases could flex to full range of flexion, and 3 cases(11.5%) revealed limitation of flexion less than 5 degrees. 4. The limitation of ROM mainly due to arthrofibrosis can be prevented by early range of motion execise and active rehabilitation in the acute or chronic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using the autograft bone-patella-bone graft. Although in acute patients the interval from operation to full ROM can be prolonged, the full ROM can be achieved after all.

Our Study was performed to evaluate the effect of anthralin for the treatment of psoriasis. Thirty seven patients with mild form of psoriasis were trested with topical anthralin ointment. 1. Twenty patients(54%) showed clearing of lesion within 8 weeks. 2. Treatment with anthalin was failed in 15 patients(40.5%). 3. Side reaction such as staining, pruritus and erythems was noted in 18 patients (48.6%), among them, 8 patients(21.6%) terminated the therapy with anthralin due to marked side reaction.

Serial changes of serum IgE, IgG, eosinophils were observed in 25 patients with acute myocaridial infarction and 20 ischemic heart disease without evidence of acute myocardial infarction and evaluated in terms of several parameters and its clinical significance. The results observed were as follows : 1) Serum IgE levels were propgressively elevated from the first hospital day(259+/-3IU/ml) up to peak level of the fifth hospital day(415+/-2IU/ml) and progressively lowered and returned to almost same level as the first hospital day on the twenty first hospital day. On the other hand control group showed significantly lower IgE levels throughout all hospital day and also did not showed serial change. 2) In the patient group with the initial serum IgE level above 200IU/m; showed significantly lower level of serum SGOT, CPK level than the group of below 200IU/ml group. This suggests the initial serum IgE level might have some correlation of the extent of myocardial necrosis. 3) In patients of acute myocardial infarction, ejection fraction was checked at discharge. Initial serum IgE level above 200IU/ml group showed significantly higher ejection fraction than below 200IU/ml group(59.4+/-13.5% vs 38.4+/-13.7%). 4) Serum IgE was checked concomittantly with serum IgE. It showed slightly decreasing tendency at third hospital day but not statistically significant. Eosinophil changed similar pattern as serum IgE but it was also not statistically significant. In conclusion, serial checking of serum IgE level in patient of acute myocardial infarction may give some help in prediction the clinical course and prognosis.

A clinical investigation of the patients with pustulosis palmaris et plantaris (PPP) was made on 36 patients who were seen at the Department of Dermatology, Seoul National University Hospital, from January 1986 through June 1987. The results were summarized as follows : 1. In this series of 36 patients, 14 patients(38.9%) were male and 22 patients (61.1%) were female. Females are more subject to the affection than males. 2. The mean age of onset in male was 30.6 years and in female it was 38.4 years, indicating a earlier onset in male. The peak age of incidence in male was between 20 and 29 years and in female, between 40 and 49 years. 3. The sites of involvement were mostly bilateral hands and feet. 4. the season of the year did not influence the severity of the skin lesions in 68.9%. 5. Nine patients(28.1%) had psoriasis-like skin lesions and 14 patients(43.1%) had nail changes out of 32 patients with PPP. 6. No direct relationship could be found between pustular eruptions and focal infections, such as tonsilitis, otitis, dental abscess and sinusitis. 7. Remmission of the pustular eruptions could be achieved in 5 out of 10 patients treated with etretinate and in 4 out of 11 patients treated with ketoconazole for more than 4 weeks' treatment
