Leiomyoma is one of the rarest solid tumor of the ovary. Approximately 50 cases have been published to date. However, most reported leiomyoma of the ovaries were small and rarely induced serious symptoms. We report a case of ovarian leiomyoma in 57-year-old woman which has been experienced in our haspital with brief review of literature.

This study was performed to investigate the rate of occurrence of neonatal birthmarks and their clinical features. From October 1982 to September l983, 1,035 newborn babies were examined in the Keimyung University Dongsan Medical center and the results were summarized as follows. The main nevi in the newborn were salmon patch (28 9%), portwine stain (0.3%), strawberry mark (0.4%), pigmented lesions (1.0%) and mongolian spot (81. 2%). The salmon patch was present most frequently on the nape but no particular predilection sites were noted in portwine stain, strawberry mark and pigmented lesions. The mongolian spot developed on the sacral portion, buttocks and lower back, in decreasing order.

BACKGROUND: The number of nongonococcal urethritis(NGU) cases is exceeding more and more that of Gonorrhea in developeing nations and some of the developing countr es such as Korea. The best evidence for an etiologic role for Trichomonas Vaginalis is in nongonococcal urethritis. OBJECTIVE: We compared the effects of Tetracycline to Tetracycine and Metronidazole in the treatment of male patients with nongonococcal urethritis and wished to find out the incidence of Trichomon-as Vaginalis in male patients with nongonocaccal urethritis indirectly. METHOD: From January, ],989 to December, 1992, three hundred male patients with nongococcal urethritis(NGU) at the Venreal Disease Clinic of Choong-Ku Publi Health Center in Seoul were allocated randomly into one of two treatment regimens. and one hundred sixty eight patients were followed. RESULTS: Eighty(83.4%) of ninty six patients treated with Tetrac; cline, 500mg, PO, q.i.d. for 14 days were cured. Sixty two(86.2%) of seventy two patients treatec with Tetracycline, 500mg, PO, q.i. d. for 14 days and Metronidaole. 2.0gm, PO, for 1 day were cured. There is no significant different between the 2 groups in treated rates(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: It suggests that male patients with nongonococcal ure1hritis due to trichomoniasis are rare in Korea. This may be die to the fact that the incidence of trichorioniasis has been declining since the 1960s. It also suggests not only the need for further studies on tool is disease but also more studies on other causes of nongonocoqeal urethritis, its treatment and epidernio.ogical study.

OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to analyze the natural history of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei originated from mucinous ovarian tumor, evaluate clinical and pathologic variables, and review our experience with available therapeutic modalities. METHODS: Six patients were treated for pseudomyxoma peritonei originating from mucinous ovarian tumor at Severance Hospital between 1990 and 1998. The data were collected retrospectively and all charts were reviewed RESULTS: The mean age at diagnosis was 51 years, and most common symptoms were abdominal distension. Pseudomyxoma peritonei was found in association with five mucinous ovarian tumors of borderline malignancy, and one ovarian mucinous adenoma. All patients underwent surgical staging and cytoreduction, three patients received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and, of these, two developed recurrence. With respect to survival, all patients were alive, four were alive and free of disease, two were alive with disease at the end point of study. CONCLUSION: Pseudomyxoma peritonei is commonly associated with borderline mucinous ovarian tumors, and is a frequently relapsing and protracted disease. But aggressive and repeated debulking surgery is recommended for long survival.

A 26 year old female presented complaining of a pea-sized nodule on her left lower eyelid for 10 years duration. Histopathological study showed several cysts in the dermis surrounded by secretory cells. The cysts were filled with decapitatory secretions. Positive staining with carcinoembrynic an tigen(CEA) was detected by immunoperoxidase technique. These clinical and histopathological findings suggest apocrine hidrocystoma developed on the left lower eyelid.

The corrected transposition of the great arteries is an usual congenital cardiac malformation, which consisitsof transposition of great arteries and ventricular inversion, and which is caused by abnormal developement ofconotruncus and ventricular looping. High frequency of associated cardiac malformations makes it difficult to getaccurate morphologic diagnosis. A total of 18 cases of corrected transposition of the great arteries is presented,in which cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography were done at the Department of Radiology, Seoul NationalUniversity Hospital between Sep. 1976 and June 1981. The clinical, radiogrpahic ,and operative findings with theemphasis on the angiocardiographic findings were analized. The resuls are as follows; 1. Among 18 cases, 13 caseshave normal cardiac position, 2 cases have dextrocardia with situs solitus, 2 cases have dextrocardia with situsinversus and 1 case has levocardia with situs inversus. 2. Segmental sets are {S.L.L.} in 15 cases, and {I.D.D} in3 cases and there is no exception to loop rule. 3. Side by side interrelationships of both ventricles and bothsemilunar valves are noticed in 10 and 12 cases respectively. 4. Subaortic type conus is noted in all 18 cases. 5.Associated cardiac malformations are VSD in 14 cases, PS in 11, PDA in 3, PFO in 3, ASD in 2, right aortic arch in2, tricuspid insufficiency, mitral prolapse, persistent left SVC and persistent right SVC in 1 case respectively.6. For accurate diagnosis of corrected TGA, selective biventriculography using biplane cineradiography is anessential procedure.

Transcatheter embolization using absolute ethanol is a widely used technic in interventional radiology. Butits mechanism of action and embolization effect on various infusion speed are poorly understood. Authors performedan experimental study in rabbits to doccument the effect of absolute ethanol onvarious infusion rate. The resultsare as follows; 1. In high speed infusion group(>0.1ml/sec. n=13), 11 cases showed peripheral obstruction and 2 cases showed central obstruction. 2. In low speed infusion group(<0.1ml/sec. n=12), 4 cases showed peripheralobstruction and 8 cases showed central obstruction (p<0.02). 3. On follow-up angiography performed 4 weeks later(n=8), no demonstrable significant differences are found between two groups.
