Varioua articles have been reported that extemal contactants were the cause Acne venenata. The daily use of cosmetics are tbe cause of Acne minor in adult wamen. To distinguish this from other type of Acne venenata due to extemal contactants Kligman had coined the term Acne cosmetica, which is a low grade persistant acneiform eruption with occasional papulopustulea in adult women. The authors have tested a wide range of available cosmetics(Total twenty including four kinds of cold cream species, two of cleansing cream species, three of nutrient cream species, six of lotion species, three of foundation make up species and two of foreign cosmetics) using the rabbit ear assay recently popularized by Kligman in order to evaluate comedogenic effects of various Korean ccsmetics. The results a.re as follows. 1. Among these twenty facial cosmetics, We observed no comedogenccicy in two facial cosmetics, mildly comcdogenecity in twelve facial cosmetics, moderately comedo- genecity in four facial cosmetics and severe comedogenecity in two facial cosmetics. 2. Histologic gradings were paralleled the findings of tbe naked eye in up to 65% 3. There were significant differences on comedogenecity between Korean cosmetics and foreign cosmetics which used by Kligman. 4. There were no significant diffrences between cold cream species, cleansing cream species. nutrient, cream species, lotion species and foundation make up species. 5, There were various differences among twenty kinds of every cosmetic specie.

Duplication of the urethra within a single penile shaft is a rare anomaly. These can be divided into those that are in the sagittal plane, which is most common, and those that occur side by side. In some cases, the accessory channel is complete, having a separate bladder opening and no communication with the more normal ventral urethra. In other cases, the accessory urethra is incomplete, either ending blindly or communicating with the urethra distal to the bladder neck. We report on a 20-year-old male with incomplete double urethra.

The echocardiographic study was performed to 13 cases with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and 105 normal persons between Nov. 1980 and Feb. 1982 in Heart center, Paik Hospital, In-Je Medical College, Busan, Korea. The left ventricular functions in the Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy were compared with those in the normal. The results were followings: 1. There were 10 male and 3 female of 13 cases with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, whose ages were above 20 years old. 2. LVDeD 4.29+/-0.60cm, LVSeD 2.85+/-0.66cm, LVDeV 82.06+/-24.66ml and LVSeV 26.91+/-9.21ml in the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy were significantly changed with those in the normal. 3. E.F. 68.63+/-10.46% and F.S. 34.32+/-6.43% in the Hypertrophic Cardiomopathy were significantly increased with those in the normal. 4. VSTh 1.66+/-0.37cm, LVPWTh 1.04+/-0.29cm in the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy were significantly increased with those in the normal.

Forty children underwent three crossed K-wires fixation after reduction of the totally displaced supracondylar fracture(type IE ) of the humerus from October 1994 to March 1997, were reviewed. The patients age ranged from 3 years and 2 months to 12 years and 7 months, averaging 6 years and 6 months. Preoperatively, five patients(12.5%) had concomitant nerve injury. Three patients(7.5%) revealed ischemic sign on distal part of the fracture. All the fractures were treated within 24 hours after arrival at the emergency room. After general anesthesia, all but one fractures reduced by closed means. Each reduced fracture was fixed by two parallel K-wires in lateral side followed by one crossed medial K-wire under fluoroscopic control. The preoperative distal ischemia of the three patient restored blood supply within 24 hours after reduction. The K-wires were removed after averaging 3.3 weeks after operation in out patient clinic. Five patients revealed neurologic deficit preoperatively recovered completely within 4 months after reduction of the fractures. The followup period ranged from 12 months to 32 months, averaging 17 months. By Flynns functional and cosmetic criteria, 39 patients(97.5%) among forty patients resulted in satisfactory criteria. The one unsatisfactory patient revealed cubitus varus treated by corrective osteotomy. In conclusion, three crossed K-wires fixation is considered as effective and safe method for the totally displaced supracondylar fracture of the humerus in children.

The authors, in this paper, addressed a variety of problems and difficulties which Korean psychiatrists should cope with. The surprising development of neurosciences, splitting of neuropsychiatry into neurology and psychiatry, easygoing attitude of psychiatrists, changes in the delivery system of health care and ill-balanced education of psychiary were listed as causes of or contributors to them. Social bias to psychiatry and regulations from outside are also considered as contributors. Psychiatric education, including medical school, residency training, continuing medical education and psychiatric textbooks, need to be changed in order to enlarge the boundary of psychiatry. Reestablishment of identity of psychiatry and psychiatrist is unavoidable, considering far-reaching new knowledge of neuroscience and gradually invisible borderzone between neurology and psychiatry. The other ways worth while to consider are : the expansion of psychiatrists' activities, development of medical behavioral science to a clinical specialty, creation of new psychiatric subspecialties, and additional training of psychiatric residencies in the primary medical care.

The significance of measurement of the spinal canal size was well recognized in case of detection of intraspinal tumor as well as diagnosis of spinal stenosis. The measurement of sagittal diameter of the lumber spinal canal by plain x-ray film is not always easy. However, the new method designed by Eisenstein made the measurement of sagittal diameter of the lumber spinal canal by plain x-ray film very easy. In order to study the range of normal values of the sagittal diameter of lumber spinal canal in Korean adults, authors measured antero-posterior and transverse diameter of the lumbar spinal canal in 290 normal Korean adults by Eisensteins method. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Mean values of sagittal diameter of the normal Korean adults male was 17.37±1.05mm at Ll, 16.43±1.12mm at L2, 15.89±1.20mm at L3, 15.45±1.24mm at L4, and 17.34±1.13mm at L5 vertebra and in female, 17.41±1.23mm at Ll, 16.45±1.20mm at L2, 16.14±1.41mm at L3, 15.40±1.32mm at L4, and 17.25±1.20mm at L5 vertebra. 2. Mean values of transverse diameter of the normal Korean adults male was 23.54±1.18mm at Ll, 24.61±1.17mm at L2, 25.78±1.41mm at L3, 27.72±1.86mm at L4, and 30.42±2.23mm at L5 vertebra and in female, 23.06±1.45mm at Ll, 23.90±1.48mm at L2, 25.21±1.53mm at L3, 26.62±1.88mm at L4, and 29.70±2.41mm at L5 vertebra. 3. In transverse diameter, it was increased more and more to the lower lumber level, the widest at L5 vertebra. 4. In sagittal diameter, it was decreased less and less to the lower lumbar level, the narrowest at L4, and increased again at L5 vertebra. 5. The difference of sagittal and transverse diameter of lumbar spinal canal at each level of lumbar spine was very significant statistically. 6. The difference of the transverse diameter of the lumber spinal canal between male and female was significant statistically but that of the sagittal diameter was not. 7. The difference of the sagittal and transverse diameter between each age group was not significant statistically.

The author reviewed 15 cases of fracture of tibial condyle treated at the orthopaedic department of Kyungpook National University hospital during the period from January 1963 to June 1970, and analysed as to cause of injury, type of fracture, average duration for treatment, complications and end results. The clinical results were obtained as follows: 1) The cause of injury were mostly traffic accident(46.7%), falling and stumbling(26.6%), coal miner accident(13.3%), direct blow(13.3%). 2) In classification of fracture type, Type I is most common type in this series and fracture of the lateral condyle is more common than medical condyle. 3) Associated ligaments tear is more common is Type III than other type, and medial collateral ligamant is most common. 4) In Type I with cast immobilization for 8 to 10 weeks, and then encouraged knee joint exercise. In Type II one of two cases treated with cast immobilization and with long leg brace after remove of the cast. Other case was treated with open reduction. In Type III 3 of 5 cases treated with bolting and immobilized for 16 weeks. 5) Undesirable sequelas are instability of joint, persistent pain and limitation of joint motion.
