For the purpose of ascertaining the status of physical growth and health status of the University students, an intensive survey was conducted by the authors towards a total of 1,250 (Male 792, Female 458) who passed the written entrance examination at the Kyung Hee University in 1972. The items included the measurements on physical growth, various physical and nutritional indices, status of visual distourbance, dental status and tuberculosis. The findings and results can be summarized as follows ; 1. Physical Growth and Development. i) The average of body height by anthropometric was 169.39+/-5.05cm in male and 157.45+/-4.43cm in female. ii) The averages of body weight by sex were 59.42+/-6.47Kg and 51.81+/-5.21Kg, respectively. iii) The averages of chest-girth were 87.18+/-5.30cm and 80.51+/-4.53cm. iv) The averages of sitting-height were 92.21+/-2.79cm and 86.28+/-2.57cm. In all cases the male measurements were higher than female. 2. Various ludices about Physical Growth and Development; i) Relative body weight by sex were 35.08and 32.91, relative chestgirth 51.47 and 51.13, and relative sitting-height 54.43, 54.79, respectively. ii) Rohrer index was 1.222 in males and 1.327 in females, Kaup index 2.071 and 2.089, Verveck index 86.54 and 84.04, and Pelidisi index 91.15 and 93.08, respectively. 3. Status of visual distourbance. The vision of the students under 0.8 with Landolt's testing chart was 45.4% in left eye and 46.6% in right eye (male : 44.4% and 45.7%, female : 47.2% and 48.0%), while under 0.6in both visions was 41.0% and 40.5% (male 40.8% and 40.7%, female : 41.5% and 40.2%),respectively. 4. Dental Status. Out of total 19.4% (male 19.2%, female 19.6%) had gingivitis, the female incidence rate of gingivitis was higher than male. Average number of teeth in each subjects was 29.6 teeth; male had 29.9 teeth and female had 29.1 teeth. The caries rate was 78.9%(male 75.6%, female 84.5%), the female caries rate was higher than male. The average number of i) Caries per tooth rate was 8.5% in male and 9.2% in female, ii) Missing per tooth rate was 0.3% and 0.2%, iii) Filling per tooth rate was 3.9% and 4.2%, in all cases, the female incidences were higher than the male. The average number of D.M.F. was 3.8 teeth in male and 4.0 teeth in female, female was higher than male. The average rate of D.M.F. was 12.7% in male and 13.7 in female, female was higher than male. 5. Pulmonary infiltration. Among the total, 53 students were diagnosed as pulmonary infiltration (tuberculosis), of whom 51 were minimal cases, one were moderately advanced case and one were far advanced case.

Intraosseous Neurilemmomas are very rare tumor and most of them are arose in the mandibular bone. A case report is made on the intraosseous neurilemmoma in the distal shaft of tibia which belong very rarely seen in the area of bone. The case was a 23 year old male who had multicystic lesion on the distal shaft of right tibia with marginal this sclerotic change on the radiological examination. The lesion of intraosseous neurilemmoma was confirmed by the microscopic examination after surgical treatment of curettage and bone graft. Also a review of literature on the neurilemmoma was made and reported.

Difficulties with intraoperative fixation of hair or eyebrow sometimes occur because of displacement or dislodgment of hair during surgery. So we have found that the simple application of a small transparent adhesive disposable dressing, such as Tegaderm(R) or OpSite Flexigrid(R), can prevent this. One of the advantages of this technique, compared with stapler fixation of the hair, is that it does not cause local trauma. An OpSite Flexigrid(R)or Tegaderm(R) is placed such that it covers both the scar and operation site hair. The hair or eyebrow were easily, quickly, and firmly positioned even on the nonshaved scalp. The technique seems to have no drawbacks, and when the Tegaderm(R) or Opsite Flexigrid(R) is removed, patient experiences little discomfort. We have never seen an allergic or direct traumatic cutaneous response following the use of these materials.

PURPOSE: This study was to investigate how stomach flaps and graft adapt their normal function to the urinary milieu after gastrocystoplasty. Also, it was studied to find out whether the stomach graft can survive as a part of bladder and function effectively. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The rats were divided into 5 groups; 1) normal 2) partial cystectomy 3) gastrocystoplasty with left gastroepiploic artery 4) gastrocystoplasty with stomach graft 5) gastrocystoplasty with right gastroepiploic artery. Their bladder capacity, end-filling pressure, serum electrolytes, BUN/Cr and urinalysis were measured. And histological examinations were performed periodically on group 3 and 4. RESULTS: All rats of gastrocystoplasty with right gastroepiploic artery expired due to bleeding, vasovagal reflex and urine leakage. But most rats with left gastroepiploic artery and stomach graft survived. Their bladder capacity increased a little more than the partial cystectomy group. Their end-filling pressures were not significantly decreased compared with partial cystectomy group. Renal function and serum electrolytes remained normal throughout the study. Serum Na+ of gastrocystoplasty rats were significantly decreased compared with normal rats(p<0.05). Microscopic hematuria developed in 15% of gastrocystoplasty rats with left gastroepiploic artery. Histological examination showed the urothelialization from the site of anastomosis toward the central portion of the graft. There were hyperplastic and squamous metaplastic changes on the bladder mucosa adjacent to the transplanted gastric patch. Bladder ulceration was observed in the gastrocystoplasty group with left gastroepiploic artery, but not in the gastrocystoplasty group with stomach graft. The gastric glands were observed and alive throughout the study in the gastrocystoplasty group with left gastroepiploic artery, but were not seen at postoperative 4 weeks in the gastrocystoplasty group with stomach graft. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the experimental data, it is suggested that augmentation gastrocystoplasty with left gastroepiploic artery pedicle is preferable to right gastroepiploic artery pedicle. It was concluded that the gastrocystoplasty using stomach graft and flap in rats could adapt to the bladder urodynamically, histologically and biochemically, and that the stomach graft could be used as one method of complete tissue graft.

Because nonspecific colonic ulcer is an unusual condition and varies markedly in clinical presentation and course, preoperative clinical diagnosis of nonspecific colonic ulcer is very difficult, But now, preoperative clinical diagnosis can he made by advent of colonofiberscopy. And, it is very important to diagnose this disease early, because late diagnosis make a poor prognosis. We report a case of nonspecific colonic ulcer diagnosed by repeated colonofiberscopy and treated with surgery.

Because most of modern peoples are busy with many their task according to specialization and complexity of society, it is impportant to determine optimal and comfortable time of colonoscopy. So this study was designed to compare efficacy of colonic cleansing and patient acceptance according to the time of colonoseopy. Among 140 peoples who underwent colonoscoyy in Busan St. Benedict Hospital between March 1995 to August 1995, two groups of 70 peoples were randomly assigned to undergo colonoscopy either at A.M. or ~P.M. The results were as follows: 1) In view of efficacy rate of colonic cleansing, the group at P.M, was superior to the group at A.M.. 2) In view of patients acceptance and side effects, the group at P.M. showed better acceptance and less side effects than the group at A.M.. In conclusion, this study showed that the colonoscopy at P.M. is better than at A.M., especially when patient is poor systemic condition or low acceptance to colonoscopic cleansing preparation. However, it may be also acceptable undergoing colonoscopy at A.M. if patient condition is good and patient is busy with his task.
