After numerous experiments with free-fat transfer since 1893, many promising methods and results of large-volume fat graft have been published recently. A common disadvantage was the time of the procedure and a lack of proof of efficiency. This method was evaluated in a prospective clinical study with 100 patients, the overall number of transplantations amounting to 342 treated breasts. Indications were general lack of breast volume, either genuine or acquired in the course of surgical procedures. The fat was harvested with the water jet assisted method, which consists in general of the harvest of very small fat particles by means of water-assisted liposuction (body-jet, human med AG, Germany) and reinjection of the fat after separation from superfluous water by means of the Lipo-Collector. All procedures were performed in a standardized pattern, measurements were taken preoperatively, at day 1 postop, after 1 week, 4 weeks, 3months, 6months. An 3D imaging of the breasts was taken preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively, the longest follow-up is 24 months. Operation time was 2 hours on average. In every case a definite increase of the volume was observed. There was no macroscopic oily cyst. The volume control of 75 aesthetic patients by 3D image could verify a permanent take rate of 62+/-11% of the grafted fat. In aesthetic patients generally 2 (80%) fat-grafted procedures with an average gain in volume of 1/2 bra cup size or 100~150 ml) per procedure were required. After implant removal, satisfaction was usually reached after only a single procedure.

Myxofibrosarcomas (MFSs), which consist of multiple nodules with a variable cellular population in a myxoid matrix, are primarily located in subcutaneous tissue. Pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectatic tumors (PHATs) are rare soft-tissue tumors characterized by a proliferation of highly pleomorphic spindle or polygonal cells and abundant ectatic blood vessels in cellular or myxoid stroma. We present here an unusual case of a high-grade MFS with a PHAT-like appearance. A 67-year-old man presented with an asymptomatic subcutaneous mass in the right forearm. The tumor had myxoid, hypo-, and hypercellular areas with highly pleomorphic spindle or polygonal tumor cells that showed frequent mitoses and nuclear pseudoinclusions. Foci of punctuate necrosis and inflammatory infiltration were present throughout the tumor, and abundant ectatic, thick-walled vessels containing blood clots were noted. The tumor cells were immunohistochemically positive for vimentin but negative for CD34, S-100 protein, smooth muscle actin, desmin, and bcl-2.

Discoid semilunar cartilage is an abnormality in which the meniscus is discoid rather than semilunar, and first reported by Young of Glasgow in 1889. 13 cases of discoid semilunar cartilages which were experienced at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of medicine, Seoul National University from Jan. 1956 till Aug. 1972 are reported with review of literature. 1) The incidence was remarkable higher in the male than in the female as 11 versus 2, and higher in the age group of second decade (Average 16.4 year old). 2) Most common site was lateral meniscus, and bilateral discoid meniscus were 3 cases. 3) 3 cases out of 13 cases had complicated rupture of semilunar cartilage, and one case had cyst of the meniscus. 4) Meniscectomy were performed in all cases with successful outcome.

Fractures of the tibial condyles, involving as they do weight-bearing articular surfaces and important soft tissues such as collateral ligaments, cruciate ligaments and semilunar cartilages present a variety of problems in treatment and prognosis. Apley, Slee, and others maintained the opinion that most fractures of the tibial condyles could be managed conservatively. On the other hand, Rombold, Schatzker, and others seemed to consider closed treatment to be virtually a form of therapeutic nihilism and adviced open reduction. But recently most authors agree that the method of treatment has to be selected in each individual case, and recommend anatomical reduction of the fracture as possible and early knee motion. During 7 years period from January 1974 to July 1981, of the tibial condylar fractures treated at the department of orthopaedic surgery, Han Gang Shim Hospital, 41 cases that could be followed have been analysed according to the cause, classification, method of treatment and result. The following results were obtained from the analysis of 41 tibial condylar fractures. l. Of the 41 cases, 34 (83%) were male and 7 (17%) were female. 2. Of the 41 cases, 32 (78%) were due to traffic accident, 25 pedestrian, 7 occupant, 8 (20%) were due to fall from height. 3. Of the 41 cases, 31 (76%) were associated with other injuries. 4. Of the 41 cases, 30 were treated by conservative method with functionally acceptable result in 22 cases (73%) and 11 were treated by open reduction with functionally acceptable result in 9 cases (82%). 5. According to the Hohl and Luck's criteria, acceptable functional result was obtained in 31 (76%) cases.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this article is to clarify the similarities and differences between psychiatry and neurology. METHODS: The author reviewed articles regarding the reciprocal relationship of psychiatry and neurology in Korea and western countries. RESULTS: The divided domains of psychiatry and neurology according to mind/body dualism is arbitrary and wrong. Mind is the function or activity of brain. Psychiatry is a branch of medicine which treats the mind disorders (dysfunction of the brain) caused by various biopsychosocial factors. Neurology is also a branch of medicine which treats the anatomical or structural abnormalities of the brain. Progress in the neuroscience and other disciplines heralds a new understanding of the brain leading to new approaches to neuropsychiatric disorders. CONCLUSION: Integration of the two disciplines is desired for mutual benefits and their patients' benefits near future in Korea.

Adenosquamous cell carcinoma (Ad-SCC) of the colon is rare. The pathogenesis of Ad-SCC is unclear, however, several hypotheses have been suggested. The clinical presentation and gross findings of Ad-SCC of the colon are similar to those of adenocarcinoma of the colon, but Ad-SCC has a more aggressive clinical course and a poorer prognosis. We report on two cases of Ad-SCC of the colon with obstruction; a collision-type Ad-SCC that has not only obstruction but also numerous hepatic metastases, and a composite-type Ad-SCC treated with left hemicolectomy followed by an adjuvant chemotherapy.
