The ankle stability has a vital role in normal gait and walking. An accurate and anatomic reduction with rigid fixation has been emphasized as important regimens as well as early motion and weight bearing exercises. The authors analysed 90 cases(88 patients) of ankle fractures which were admitted and treated in orthopedic department, Chung-Ang Gil General Hospital from March 1987 to May 1992. Males were affected 1.7times than female and the age group of third and fourth decades constituted 60.2%. The most common cause was vehicle accident(35 cases; 38.9%). According to Lauge-Hansen classification, supination-external rotation type was most common(32 cases; 35.6%). Accoompanyng injuries were noted on 45 cases(50%) and fractures in lower extremities were most common(17 cases; 18.9%). According to meyer's assessment of result, the clinical and radiologic results were better in operative method than conservative ones. From the evaluation of clinical results, anatomic reduction and rigid internal fixation of lateral malleoli and distal tibiofibular joint are more important factors. Complications are resulted in 19cases(21.1%) and traumatic arthritis is the most common (10 cases; 11.1%). The extent and degree of injury was an important factor in an overall results of treatment as well as the anatomic reduction of fracture alignment.

Closed intramedullary nailing for trochanteric fractures of femur has many advantages such as minimal operative trauma, low incidence of infection, good stability of fracture, low incidence of delayed or nounion and early ambulation. Complications have been frequently experienced especially in elderly, osteoporotic patients, but these could be avoided by meticulous surgical procedure. The authors hsve treated 99 cases of intertrochanteric fracture and 23 cases of subtrochanteric fracture from March 1982 to December 1987 with this method and the results are summerized as follows : 1. The aversge age was 61.4 yrs. 2. In classification of intertrochanteric fracture, stable fractures(Kyle type I & II) were 53 cases(43.3%) and unstable fractures(Kyle type III & IV) were 46 cases(37.6%). And in subtrochanteric fracture, stable transverse fractures were 12 cases(9.8%) and unstable long oblique or spiral fractures were 11 cases(9.0%). 3. Intraoperative complications were experienced in 23 cases(18.8%). The entry hole breakage was most common and occurred in 16 cases. 4. Of the 94 patients with more than 6 months follow-up, 21 patients(22.3%) showed more than one complication, e.g, knee joint pain in 15 cases, external rotation deformity in 8 and nail migration in 11 including 3 cases of fixation loss and one case of nonunion with nail breakage, etc. 5. Complications occurred more frequently in unstable fractures(31.8%) and in old ages (29.1%) than in stable fractures and in young ages respectively. And it was felt that complications could be minimized by packing of the medullary canal with nails. 6. It is thought that flexible intramedullary nailing is a good method for trochanteric fractures of femur not only in elderly debilitated patients but also in young patients. However, experience and caution are required to prevent complications.

We designed a new electrophoresis apparatus. This was consisted of the body into which agarose could be poured directly and the cover from which the platinium electrodes were suspended. After running the nucleic acid in this electrophoresis, we observed the band of nucleic acid on the ultraviolet transilluminator without touching the agarose gel, keeping the cover with the electrodes and discarding the gel in body. We compared the variuos types of the electrophoresis apparatus. In the electrophoresis apparatus which body was consisted of the flat bottom, the migration of dyes was the fastest among studied types. The high migration velocity of dyes was due to high electric current.

Perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens is a rare chronic recalcitrant follicular disorder which clinically presents itself as pulstules, nodules, intercommunicating abscess and sinuses that leave atrophic, hypertrophic or keloidal scars. Although the etiology of this of condition is unknown, its association with acne conglobata and hidradenitis suppurativa, collectively termed the follicular occlusion triad, suggest a cammon basic pathogenic mechanism of follicular retention. The therapeutic problem is reflected in the variety of therapies that have been tried with varying degrees of success. We report a case of a 34-year-old man who showed a patch of alopecia on the vertex of his scalp. Clinically, the scalp showed multiple soft fluctuant elevated nodules with nonscarring alopecic patches. We performed a treatment with isotretinoin(13-cis-retinoic acid) during 6 months. The patients clinical appearance was much improved and local recurrence and hair loss have not been observed to date.

PURPOSE: We reviewed 5 years worth of experience with peritoneal drainage and dialysis in infants who underwent open heart surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of peritoneal drainage and peritoneal dialysis on fluid balance and several parameters of intensive care. METHODS: Six(10%) of 60 consecutive infants who underwent open heart surgery required peritoneal dialysis during peritoneal drainage. Simple peritoneal drainage was performed in the remaining 54 infants. The silicone rubber peritoneal dialysis catheter was inserted into the center of abdominal cavity just after operation, and subsequent peritoneal drainage was maintained during intensive care. RESULTS: Mean age of the study group was 0.48+/-0.21 years(M: F=32: 28). Early postoperative mortality amang the infants with congenital heart disease was 1.6%. Total amount of output was 7.0+/-2.28mL/kg/hr, urine output 5.14+/-2.9lmL/kg/hr, pleural fluid 0.80+/-0.5lmL/kg/hr, and peritoneal fluid 1.20+/-0.90mL/kg/hr. The ratio of output to intake(O/I) was 1.06. None of the complications required early termination of peritoneal drainage or peritoneal dialysis. Hemodynamics and pulmonary function were maintained steadily during postoperative intensive care. CONCLUSION: The early institution of peritoneal drainage and peritoneal dialysis in infants with congenital heart disease after cardiac operations not only removes fluid, thus easing fluid restriction, but may also improve cardiopulmonary function.

Most of the malignant tumors of the pancreas are adenocarcinomas arising from the ductal epithelium. Primary leiomyosarcoma of the pancreas, even though it is the most common sarcoma of the pancreas, is very rare. We present a case of leiomyosarcoma of the pancreas, probably primary, with metastases to the stomach, lymph nodes, and abdominal wall. A 52-year-old woman visited the hospital with vague right upper abdominal pain and weigh loss of 6 kg for 2 months. The radiological and endoscopic examination revealed that she had a large heterogeneous mass, 11 cm in size, in the pancreatic body and tail, a 4 cm-sized mass in the paraaortic area, and a 3 cm-sized polypoid mass in the stomach. Histologically, they were all similar to one another and composed of markedly pleomorphic cells. Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies showed definite smooth muscle differentiation of the tumor cells. Two months later, the patient underwent an excision of a new 3 cm mass in the right lower abdominal wall, showing features of well differentiated leiomyosarcoma.
