We experienced a 49-year-old female with a slowly growing tumor(4.0x3.5x3.0cm) on her right knee over 3 months' duration. She sustained a flame burn on her right knee at 7 year-old-age. A biopsy on the skin lesion revealed a malignant melanoma picture. Extensive local excision and grafting was done. Nine months after the operation, there was no evidence of recurrence or metastasis.

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is often used in the management of coronary artery disease and the advances in equipment, technichal skill and acquisition of operator experiences have improved initial success rates and reduced the frequency of complications. However, acute coronary occlusion is the most common and serious complication related to angioplasty and its several potential mechanisms are intracoronary thrombus, coronary artery spasm and coronary artery dissection. Accordingly,heparinization, intracoronary thrombolysis, re-PTCA, stent implantation and emergency coronary artery bypass grafting have been previously used for reopening of an occluded coronary artery during angioplasty. In this report we describe our experience in the management of acute coronary occlusion of left anterior descending artery caused by dislodgement of thrombotic material during PTCA by means of aspiration thromboembolectomy instead of medical therapy,re-PTCA and stent implantation.

The end of this month is the 30th birthday of Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society. Since the first issue of Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society published in October, 1972, it has been developed in its quality as well as the quantity. More than 4000 articles have been published and tremendous contribution for the development of Korean Neurosurgical Society was made by the journal. The authors review the history of Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society including the problems in this situation and suggest the way to make the journal as an internationally famous one.
