On strains of dematophytes isolated from superficial fungal infection patients, susceptibility tests were undertaken to topical antifungal agents (econazole, clotrimazole, siccanin, and tolnaftate). Minimal inhibitory concentration of the drugs was cletermined after 4 days incubation at room temperature on Sabourauds dextroes agar. Diverse susceptibility pattern was observed among different fungal species. Minor variability of susceptibilities was noted within the same species except for Trichophyton rubrum to econazole and tolnaftate in which a marked variation of susceptibilities was noted, Among drug tested, tolnaftate showed the most strong antifungal action, and Trichophyton mentagrophytes was the least sensitive species to all drugs. Minimal inhibitory concentration levels of each drug are as follows; clotrimazole was in the range of 2-8 mcg/ml., econazole was in the range of 0.06-2 mcg/rnl., siccanin was in the range of 05-2 mcg/ml., and tolnaftate was in the range of 0.01-0.25 mcg/ml.

The diagnosis and treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head advanced, after Freud issued examples of bilateral avascular necrosis of femoral head (AVN) in 1926. But still not fixed in treatment and diagnosis. Recently early diagnosis and treatment produced good result. Whole body bone scan, intraosseous pressure mornitoring, intramedullary venography, C-T, or MRI, Selective femoral angiography also used in early diagnosis. Selective femoral angiography was performed for 56 patients, who has suspected as AVN by sumple X-ray and WBBS in order to estimate. How the femoral angiographic finding exist in AVN. In the control group femoral angiography performed to 5 person with normal stage of clinical and radiologic finding. So the result are as following l. All cases in the control group were not observed terminal branch of superior and inferior capslar branch. 2. In AVN the alteration of vasculature appeared 22 patients among 56 patient. 3. The altered vasculature presented 87.5% in traumatic group and 31.5% in nontraumatic group. 4. Collateral circulation was 22.2% in the cases of patients under 6 moths of the time interual between etiological events and clinical symptoms, 89.5% over 6 months. 5. Collateral circulation received 86.8% from inferior gluteal artery two cases from superior gluteal artery, and three cases form obturator artery. 6. Clinical tolerance was supposed to in well developed collateral circulation. According to the above results, Vascular alteraion were noted very much in traumatic group and development of collateral circulation were related promote clinical tolerance. Selective femoral angiography was not effective to assist early diagnosis and treatment of AVN for it could not detect terminal branch of superior and inferior capsular artery that reflected intraossous vasculsture. We need the new nethod of angoigraphy in order to early diagnosis.

In 1941, Jaffe and coworkers studied a lesion with histologic appearance of fibrous stroma, pigmented deposition and histiocytic infiltration as well as giant cell, for which they named pigmented villonodular synovitis, bursitis and tenosynovitis. Thereafter many authors have discussed etiology, clinical and radiological features, pathology and treatment regarding the disease. Almost all, this disease is monoarticular and knee joint is most common site. We experienced a case of localized pigmented villonodular synovitis involving an shoulder joint which was treated by local excision and obtained good result.

Adenoma of the nipple is a benign tumor of the lactiferous ducts of the nipple which frequently causes erosion of the surface. It can clinically mmic Paget's disease and histologically be misdiagnosed as a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. A 20-year-old woman developed an erythematous oozing patch on the right nipple two years ago, which subsequently developed iiito verrucous surfaccd papules. A biopsy specimen of the lesion showed focal acanthosis of the epidermis. The tumor was composed of fairly well-circumscribed, glandlike structures within the nipple stroma. Ductlike struciures, papillary areas, solid nests of cells and cysts lined by squarnous epithelium, could be seen, Two cell types lining the ducts were recognized; inner columnar cells and peripherally located cuboidal cells. Although simple excision of the adenoma is the treatment of choice, our case was treated successfully by electrucoagulation.
