Five cases of childhood candidal vulvovaginitis, each having clinical features of vulva erythema, pnuritus, and vaginal discharge, were examined. Circumst. antially, t.he suspected sources of infection and the attributatble factors for the candiclal nfection in these patients were mother of the children who had known candidal vulvovaginitis, and chronic diarrhea of the children. Regarding the treatment of these patients, 3 were given oral ketocanazole and 2 were treated with intravaginal clotrimazole preparations for more than 1 week with successful result. Concern for better hygiene in the anogenital area seems to be important in the prevention of childhood candidal vulvovaginitis.

The Klinefelter's syndrome is characterized by azoospermia, gynecomastia, a variable degree of eunuchoidism elevated urinary gonadotropins, atrophic testis and hyalinization of the seminiferous tubules in which Leydig cells were preserved. Reviewing some world literatures, we have reported a case of Klinefelter's syndrome associated with right inguinal hernia in 22 year-old Korean male.

Maternal and fetal effects of anesthesis for 781 cases ceasarean sections, performed during the past 10 years (1965~1974) in Hanil Hospital have been evaluated clinically. It is emphasized that the selection of anesthetic agents and methods, should depend upon the physical status of the patients and the ability of both obstetricians and anesthesiologists. Optimal results require effective teamwork amongst obstetricians, anesthesiologists and nursing personnel. The anesthesiologist should be fully infermed of obstetric aspects. A variety of anesthetic techniques can be used for elective and emergency Caesarean sections. Each technique has its own advantages, disadvantages and limitations which must be thoroughly understood for proper application. The choice of anesthesia should be determined primarily by the experience of the operator, the degree of ugency, condition of the monther and the fetus, the physiopathology, the skill of the obstetrician and the desires and the emotional state of the monther.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the effect of preoperative fatty degeneration of deltoid and teres minor muscles on the clinical outcome in patient with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). METHODS: Nineteen patients with RTSA were enrolled. The mean follow-up period was 16.1 months. The fatty degeneration of three distinct parts in each deltoid and the teres minor muscle was measured using a preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Postoperatively, the muscle strengths for forward elevation (FE), abduction (Abd), and external rotation (ER) were measured using a myometer at the last follow-up. The parameters for clinical outcome were Constant Score (CS) and Korean Shoulder Score (KSS). RESULTS: The number of cases was 10 in group 1 and 9 in group 2. The strength of FE and Abd were significantly higher in group 1 (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively), and the strength of ER was not different significantly between two groups (p=0.065). For the clinical outcome, both CS and KSS were higher in group 1 (p=0.002 and p=0.002, respectively). The number of patients in group A was 11, and group B was 8. Although there was not a significant difference in terms of FE and Abd between group A and B (p=0.091, p=0.238), ER was significantly higher in group A (p=0.012). We did not find a significant difference in the clinical scores (CS, p=0.177 and KSS, p=0.238). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest the importance of a preoperative evaluation of the fatty degeneration of deltoid and teres minor muscles for predicting postoperative strength and clinical outcome.

The spermatic granuloma is a granulomatous inflammation which is the tissue reaction due to extravasated sperm. Its exact causes and mechanism are not clearly evaluated. Its clinical interest is that it often confused with tuberculous epididymitis and other epididymal conditions. We experienced a case of spermatic granuloma that was clinically confused with tuberculous epididymitis in 23-year old Korean male.
