The spine fracture of osteoporotic patients is considered as meaningful since it occurs prior to other life-threatening fractures (for example; fracture of proximal of femur). The purpose of this study were to analyze the relationship between BMD and spine fracture in patients who complained of back pain without any obvious trauma history. We studied the cases of one hundred thirty patients above an age of sixty years, whose visited the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Kosin University Medical Center, from March 1995 to April 1996. Both simple X-ray and Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) were checked in old patients. The following results were obtained. 1. The BMD of spine fracture group with the osteoporosis (mean; -3.66 standard deviation (SD)) was significantly lower than the nonfracture group (mean; -2.38 standard deviation (SD)) (P = 0.0000). 2. According that the BMD Z-score is decreased, the proportion of spine fracture is increased significantly (above-1.0SD; 16.67%, -1.0SD~ -2.0SD; 16.67%, -2.0SD~ -3.0SD; 37.83%, - 3.0SD~ 4.0SD; 51.61%, below -4.0SD; 61.54% (P = 0.000)). 3. The probability of developing the spine fracture based on above -2.0 standard deviation (SD) was 2.8 times in -2.0SD~ -3.0SD (P = 0.044), 5.3 times in -3.0SD~ -4.0SD (P = 0.004), and 7.9 times below -4.0SD (P = 0.001). We recommended more intensive treatment to the osteoporotic patients below -2.0 SD in BMD Z- score.

We evaluated the effectiveness of photoastigmatic refractive Keratectomy(PARK) by excimer laser on patients with compound myopic astigmatism. Spherocylindrical PARK was performed on 181 myopic eyes with astigmatism(mean spherical equivalent : -6.61 D, range : -1.88~-14.5 D) using the visx excimer laser. The eyes were divided into three groups according to the amount of desired astigmatic correction : Group 1(-0.5~-1.0 D), Group 2(-1.25~3.0 D), and Group 3(-3.25~-5.5 D). Patients were followed up for 6 months. Uncorrected visual acuity at postoperative 6 month, was 0.80+/-0.27 in Group 1, 0.79+/-0.19 and 0.71+/-0.21bin Group 2 and 3 respectively. The mean spherical equivalent refraction was -0.24 D 6 months after PARK. Mean astigmatism was reduced from preoperative -0.85+/-0.51 D to postoperative -0.34+/-0.38 D in Group 1, from -2.08+/-0.65 D to -0.43+/-0.64 D and from -4.42+/-0.63 D to -1.23+/-1.25 D in Group 2 and 3 respectively. We also analyzed the angle of error, magnitude of error, index of success, and coefficient of afjustment by vector analysis. No significant complications were observed during the follow-up period. These results show that PARK by excimer laser was effective in correction of astigmatism. The effect of astigmatic correction in Group 2 and 3 were better than that of Group 1. Group 1 showed overcorrected tendency and Group 2 and 3 showed undercorrected tendency.

Among the erythrocyte membrane defects, hereditary spherocytosis is the most common. The erythrocyte membrane defect results from a deficiency of spectrin, the most important structural protein in red cell. Hereditary spherocytosis often presents with hemolytic anemia, jaundice, moderate splenomegaly. Diagnosis is established by the presence of spherocytes in the peripheral blood, reticulocytosis, an increased osmotic fragility, and a negative Coombs test. In children, splenectomy is usually performed after age 6 years but can be done at a younger age if warranted by the severity of the anemia and the need for frequent transfusions. In the period December 1987 to Agust 1993, 9 patients with hereditrary spherocytosis underwent splenectomy and the following results were obtained. 1. Nine patients were comprised of five males and four females. 2. Five patients(55.6%) had been admitted to our hospital during age 6-10 years. 3. Four of the nine patients had autosomal dominant inheritance with variable expression. The other five patients had no known inheritance. 4. The diagnosis of the spherocytosis was based on the increased osmotic fragility and increased autohemolysis of the erythrocytes, as well as on the appearance of spherocytes in the peripheral blood smear. 5. In all cases splenectomy was performed. Two patients had concomitant gall stones and choledocholithiasis, respectively. One patient with concomitant gall stones underwent simultaneous cholecystectomy and splenectomy. The other patients associated with choledocholithiasis underwent splenectomy, cholecystectomy, choledocholithotomy, and T-tube drainage. 6. Complete hematologic recovery was obtained by the splenectomy in all cases. 7. Postoperative complication was not occurred.

Synovial sarcoma is an uncommon, highly malignant soft tissue tumor usually arising from the synovial lining of a joint, bursa and tendon sheath. Occurence in muscle fascia is extremely rare. We present a case of synovial sarcoma of the left calf muscle fascia, which was confirmed by microscopically sarcomatous growth of spindle cells and irregular small multiloculation. Above knee amputation was done.

Isolated radial head dislocation, without an associated fracture of the ulna in adult, is rare. Two cases which can be thought as old unreduced isolated radial head dislocation were experienced in this hospital. Dislocated radial heads have not been reduced, however the cases revealed normal elbow motion including pronation and supination. We report these cases with a review of the literature.

The Ankle joint is a modified complex hinge joint which plays an importnat role in weight bearing, walking and standing. Injuries about the ankle joint cause destruction of not only bony architecture but also the ligament and soft tissue components. We performed arthrography in 52 cases of ankle fracture. The Result obtained from this study was as follow; The ligament & interosseous membrane injuries were more severe, when fracture of lateral malleolus was occured higher level than ankle joint.
