The elbow joint is the most commonly dislocated-joint in the body except for the shoulder, and in children less then 10 years old, it is the most frequently dislocated articulation. The injury and the treatment are well described in most standard textbooks, but the characteristic findings and follow-up evaluations are not generally recognized. Authors have clinically analyzed 45 cases of traumatic fracture and dislocation of the elbow joint which are treated between January, 1975 and June, 1985 at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Wonju Medical College of Yonsei University. The results were as follows; 1. The age incidences were in even distribution except in the old ages where the incidence was low and the male to female ratio was 7: 3. 2. The major cause of the injury of the elbow was fall down (60%). 3. Posterior and posterolateral dislocations were about 60% of all cases. 4. Associated fractures were 35.6% of all the elbow dislocations, of which medial epicondyle fracture had the highest incidence. 5. Complications including ulnar nerve injury (3 cases), median nerve injury(1 case), radial nerve mjury(1 case), rupture of brachial artery(2 cases), recurrent dislocation(1 case) and calcification of ligament(2 cases) were observed. 6. Pure elbow dislocation occurred in 13 cases (28.9%). 7. The average immobilization period for patient with non-operative treatment (45%) and operative treatment(55%) were 7 days and 3 weeks, respectively, and much better results were seen in patients with non-operative treatment than in operative treatment and in shortened immobilization period.

Pelvic fistulas may result from obstetric complications, inflammatory bowel disease, pelvic malignancy, pelvic radiation therapy, pelvic surgery, or other traumatic causes, and their symptoms may be distressing. In our experience, various types of pelvic fistulas are identified after pelvic disease or pelvic surgery. Because of its close proximity, the majority of such fistulas occur in the pelvic cavity and include the vesicovaginal, vesicouterine, vesicoenteric, ureterovaginal, ureteroenteric and enterovaginal type. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the spectrum of imaging features of pelvic fistulas.

There is an increasing need for revision of the femoral stem due to a high frequency of total hip arthroplasty. Recently, many orthopedic professionals are paying particular attention to the durability of revision arthroplasty. This review article includes the most recent information and published studies about revision of the femoral stem. It is ordered as follows: preoperative evaluation, surgical planning, surgical approaches, implant removal, reimplantation, perioperative complications and clinical results according to implant type.

Although bimaxillary surgery enhances patients' self-esteem and mood by improving their facial appearance, surgical outcome assessments for this procedure are limited. This preliminary study investigated differences in brain activity on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during self-face evaluation before and after bimaxillary surgery. Three patients (1 man and 2 women, age range: 20–27 years) underwent fMRI while viewing self-face images before and after bimaxillary surgery for maxillofacial deformity. The activation in the left postcentral gyrus, and medial orbital frontal cortex was significantly great in response to after-surgery self-face images compared to before-surgery images. Our preliminary results may facilitate the development of an objective measure for patient satisfaction after orthognathic surgery including bimaxillary surgery.

INTRODUCTION: Premature ejaculation is the most prevalent form of male sexual dysfunction, but its cause has not been well established. Recently some studies indicated that penile sensitivity is decreased in men with premature ejaculation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To clarify the association between penile sensitivity and premature ejaculation, we evaluated penile sensitivity in 18 patients with premature ejaculation without erectile dysfunction and neurologic deficit, and 15 normal potent male volunteers by SMV-5 digital vibrometer (Teknologue, Tokyo, Japan), which has higher precision and reproducibility than analogue type biothesiometers. Vibration thresholds were recorded at the glans penis, penile shaft, and frenulum of the penis in flaccid and erectile state induced by PGE1 10 ug. We also recorded those at ulnar process and medial maleolus of the tibia. RESULTS: There was no difference in vibration threshold at the ulnar process and the medial maleolus of the tibia between the two groups (p>0.05). And we found no difference in penile sensitivity at the glans penis, penile shaft, frenulum of the penis between the two groups, in both erectile and flaccid states (p>0.05). Penile sensitivity was decreased in erectile state compared to flaccid state, but it is not statistically significant (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: Based on our results, penile hypersensitivity measured by SMV-5 vibrometer does not appear to be a major factor contributing to premature ejaculation. And further study aimed at other somatic or cognitive factors awaits implementation.

A number of noninvasive technics have been advocated as reflecting left ventricular performance. These methods include systolic time intervals, echocardiography and imaging of the left ventricular chamber with radionuclides during systole and diastole. Radionuclide evaluation of left ventricular function by means of the gamma camera and gating currently appears to be the most reliable noninvasive method for approximating angiographic evaluation of left ventricular performance. Utilizing the radionuclide angiography, we measured the left ventricular function in 19 normal healthy control, 60 patients with coronary artery diseases 7 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, 5 patients with hypertension. 1) Left ventricular ejection fraction decreased in 12 patients with anterior myocardial infarction (39.9+/-11.6%), 17 patients with inferior myocardial infarction (49.9+/-8.4%) and 7 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (19.0+/-5.8%), and there was a statistically significant difference compared with 19 normal control group (63.5+/-8.2%)(p<0.005). However there were no statistically significant difference between normal control group, patients with hypertension (58.8+/-7.6%) and patients with angina pectoris (60.1+/-6.5%). 2) Left ventricular ejection fraction decreased in both anterior and inferior myocardial infarction, and there was a statisically significant difference between both groups (p<0.01). All 13 patients with acute myocardial infarction had abnormal LVEF (40.5+/-9.1%) whcih was significantly lower than that of 16 patients with old myolardial infarction (50.1+/-10.5%)(p<0.01).

Ten cases of lower ureteral injuries resulting from pelvic surgery, all females with an average age of 48.8 years. were treated by a end-to-end ureteroureterostomy at the Seoul National University Hospital between January 1987 and December 1993, Of the patients nine were from gynecologic surgery and one was from general surgery. Only one case was detected intraoperatively and the others were referred post-operatively. A watertight, tensionless, spatulated anastomosis with double J stenting was performed to all as soon as the diagnosis was made. In one patient renal mobilization was necessary because of the long ureteral defect. The mean length of the resected sections of the ureter and the distal ureteral stumps were 26 mm and 27 mm, respectively. The mean duration of followup was 3 years. Good results with no morbidity were achieved in all. Our results suggest that ureteroureterostomy is a good operative method having great success rate in the treatment of lower ureter injury. And it thought be a good alternative to Boari flap or psoas hitch technique when the distal ureteral stump is preserved.

Digital subtraction angiography(DSA) was made in 72 patients at department of radiology, Seoul National University hospital from February 1982 to January 1983 with our system, SRM-II, developed by cooperation of department of medical engineering, Seoul National University Hospital. The results were as follows; 1. In the total 72 cases, vascular disease was 28 cases in which aortic disease including Takayasu's aortitis was 18 cases. Others were vascular tumors in 32 cases and various conditions such as renal donor and artificial arteriovenous shunt. 2. Extent of the lesion was well delineated especially in aortic disease in cluding 8 cases of Takayasu's aortitis, 6 cases of aortic aneurysm and 2 cases of Behcet's syndrome. 3. DSA can be done to outpatient without admission because of its simplicity and non-invasiveness. DSA is useful especially in the evaluation and follow-up of vascular disease and the diagnostic value is expected to grow continuously according to the renewal of system.
