Schonlein-Henoch purpura is a generalized small vessel vasculitis characterized by nonthrombocytopenic purpura, arthritis, abdominal pain and nephritis. In 1914 Osler described an allergic purpura associated with hemiplegia. After then Lewis et al. reported the cases of Schonlein-Henoch purpura associated with convulsion, coma, confusion, intracranial hemorrhage, and chorea, CNS complication has been reported in 1-8% of children and subsided spontaneously in most cases. Headache is a remarkable sympton and appears nonspecific nature. In 1991 Ostergaard and Storm reported that headache occured during the first week following skin rash and frequently showed abnormal EEG findings. We investigated prospectively the presence of a possible cerebral and renal involvement in the case of Schonlein-Henoch purpura. EEG abnormality demonstrated in 52.6% of all cases, and headache or irritability in 47.4% of all cases. A significant association was found between abnormal EEG finding and presence of headache, but was not found between EEG findings and presence of renal involvement and hypertension. Patients with abnormal EEG had no Past or famity history of febrile convulsion or ididopathic epilepsy.

Primary intimal sarcoma of the pulmonary artery is a rare disease and there has been no report of any case originating from the pulmonary valve. Recently we experienced a 62 year-old female patient who had a primary intimal sarcoma of the pulmonary valve with distal metastasis. She was brought to medical attention due to exertional dyspnea facial edema productive coughing and general weakness for 1 month. Chest CT and echocardi-ography suggest an acute pulmonary thromboembolism or tumor. Exploration showed a large polypoid mass arising from the pulmonary leaflets and multiple masses on distal pulmonary arteries. We replaced the pulmonary valve and reconstructed the pulmonary artery. She received radiotherapy 1 month postoperatively and now 4 months after surgery she has begun receiving chemotherapy.

For the clinical analysis and evaluation on the patients with gestational trophoblastic disease(GTD), a study was done retrospectively on 114 patients with GTD(60 in Hydatidiform mole, 10 in invasive mole, 44 in choriocarcinoma) treated from Jan. 1, 1985 to Dec. 31, 1994 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Kosin Medical College, Pusan, Korea. We obtained the following results ; The incidence of GTD was 1 per 73 deliveries in H. mole, 1 per 437 deliveries in invasive mole, and 1 per 99 deliveries in choriocarcinoma. The most prevalent age was 21-40 groups. Abnormal vaginal bleeding was a main symptom and sign. 30.6% of H. mole was managed by dilatation and curettage. 90.0% of invasive mole and 51.4% of choriocarcinoma were managed by surgical treatment and chemotherapy. The overall remissinon rate of choriocarcinoma was 71.4%(100.0% in stage I, 66.7% in stage II, 54.5% in stage III, 50.0% in stage IV).

Hereditary anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a rare condition characterized by underdeveloped ectodermal structure including the skin, teeth or skin appendages. The patient has characteristic feature of anhidrosis, hypotrichosis and defective dentition. We experienced a case of hereditary anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in a l-month-old male infant who had unexplained recurring fever, anhidrosis and characteristic facial feature, so we established the diagnosis with clinical feature and skin biopsy.

8.The Clinical Findings in 24 Cases of Orbiital Blow-out Fracture.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1993;34(1):1-7
The materials such as supramid, silastic, silicone and bone graft has been used to repair the orbital blow-out fracture, recently Lyodura(R) has been used. In this report, we analysed the clinical aspects of 24 patients and the usefulness of Lyodura(R) through the operative data in treatment of orbital blow-out fracture was evaluated. We also observed the course of improvement of the diplopia and enophthalmos and evaluated the difference between surgically and nonsurgically treated cases. We evaluated the results through the clinical as peets, radiologic examination and repeated diplopia test after Injury. We divided 24 patients into two groups; one group was treated by surgery (17 patients, 71%), the other group was treated conservatively (7 patients, 29%). The materials that were used to repair the fractured site were Lyodura(R) (15 cases) and resin (2 cases). In all operated cases, there were no significant complications except one case which was reentrapped by accidental pressure to the eye. The subjective diplopia in central field 30 degrees was disappeared within three months in all cases of surgically treated. In conclu sion, it is considered that Lyodura(R) is useful for repairing of blow-out fracture site and we should have to pay more attention to the surgical indication.

Automated static perimeters, which are commonly used for early diagnosis and follow-up of glaucoma patients in Korea, are manufactured overseas, and their basic data were obtained from foreigners and normal values were set to meet them. Therefore, verification of validity of those data should precede their application to Koreans. We compared the mean normal values of standard indices of OCTOPUS 101 automated static perimeter with the values obtained from 140 eyes of 70 healthy Koreans using normal strategy(NS)and dynamic strategy(DS). Mean navlues of mean defect(MD), loss variance(LV), corrected loss variance(CLV), and short-term fluctuation(SF)were: 2.84+/-0.85dB, 2.15+/-0.54dB, 1.22+/-0.42dB, 1.43+/-0.22dBwith NS, and 2.05+/-0.81dB, 1.98 +/-0.58dB, 0.97+/-0.49dB, 1.43+/-0.24dB, repectively with DS. With NS, 114 of 140 eyes (81. 4%)were out of the normal range of MD. With DS, 67 of 140 eyes(47. 9%)were out of normal range of MD, and 2 of 140 eyes(1. 4%)were out of the normal range of SF. Values of the other indices were within normal range of both strategies. Statistical analysis of global indices showed that age was significantly correlated with LV, CLV and SF in NS(P<0.05), and that it was also correlated with LV and CLV in DS(P<0.05). These results suggest that both race and age should be taken into acoount in interpretation of visual fields on automated static perimetry.
