Calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone and serves weight bearing of the body. The calcaneus has a pattern of cancellous bone enclosed with a very thin cortical shell. It is difficult to reduce the bony fragments accurately when there are comminution and displacement on the calcaneal fractures. Retrospective study was carried out of 18 patients(21 feet) of calcaneus fractures after axial fixation in Soonchunhyang University Hospital from July, 1982 to July, 1988. Minimum follow up period was 8 months(average 2 years 6 months). The clinical analysis of them are reported with a review of the literature and the results are follows:l. According to the Rowe's unit system, the results of treatment were excellent or good in 9 cases of 13 tongue types and 5 cases of 8 joint depression types. 2. The results were satisfactory in the calcaneal fractures of well reestablished Bohler angle to 21-30 degrees. 3. The results were excellent or good in 5 cases operated within post-trauma 1 week and in 9 cases operated from 1 week to 2 weeks. 4. The results were poor in the 2 joint depression type with severe comminution. And subtalar joint fusion was performed on the previous 2 cases. Then pain on the lateral malleolar area was subsided.

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B vaccination schedule commonly used in Korea is divided largely into 0, 1, 2 month scheduled vaccination group(0, 1, 2 group) and 0, 1, 6 month scheduled vaccination gorup(0, 1, 6 group). The only difference bet.ween two groups is the interval from 2nd dose to 3rd dose. This st,udy had been carried out, to find whether t.he difference of vaccination interval influence the vaccination complet,ion rate or not. METHODS: Study objects are 135 persons over 20 years old who had heptitis B vaccination more than once in injection room of Dongkuk University Kyong-ju Hospital from Jan. 1st in 1996 to Dec. 31th in 1996. Data about vaccination completion were gathered from record book of injection room and telephone interview. RESULTS: Hepatitis B vaccination completion rate is 73.8% in 0, 1, 2 group and 72.5% in 0, 1, 6 group. The reasons for incomplete vaccination are forgetting vaccinat.ion date(36.4% in 0, 1, 2 group and 50% in 0, 1, 6 group), having no time to spare for vaccination(54.5% in 0, 1, 2 group and 43% in 0, 1, 6 group) and knowing positive HBsAb before completion of scheduled vaccination(9.1% in 0, 1, 2 group and 7% in 0, 1, 6 group). CONCLUSIONS: There is no difference in Hepatitis B vaccination complet,ion rate bet.ween 0, 1, 2 group and 0, 1, 6 group.

BACKGROUND: It has been known that arterial carbon dioxide tension is 4~5 mmHg higher than end-tidal carbon dioxide tension in healthy adults during general anesthesia. But negative arterial to end-tidal PCO2 difference was reported in pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the difference between arterial and end-tidal PCO2 in anesthetized patients with reduced functional residual capacity. METHODS: 90 patients were divided into 3 groups i.e. control group (n=30), obese group (n=20, body weight more than 20% greater than ideal weight), pregnant group (n=40). All patients had no cardiac or respiratory abnormalities and never smoked. Arterial blood gas analysis and measurement of end-tidal PCO2 were done 20 minutes after induction of anesthesia in control and obese group and just before uterine incision and 20 minutes after fetal delivery in pregnant group. RESULTS: There were significant correlations between arterial and end-tidal PCO2 in all groups. The incidences of negative arterial to end-tidal PCO2 difference were 10% in control group, 40% in obese group, 42.5% in pregnant group (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: From this study, it is concluded that patients with reduced functional residual capacity have more incidences of negativity than normal patients in the values of arterial to end-tidal PCO2 difference during general anesthesia. So when the tight control of PaCO2 is required in patients with reduced FRC, we recommend to measure PaCO2 for better anesthetic management.

We report two cases of malignant schwannoma of skin in association with non-familial neurofibromatosis. Case 1, a 47 year old man, had a large subcutaneous tumor on the sacral area and case 2, a 62 year old woman, a painful, ulcerating tumor on the posterior aspect of the left arm. Both cases were histopathologically confirmed as malignant schwannomas and immunohistochemical studies showed 5-100 protein in the tumor cells. After surgical excision of the tumors, case 1 was lost to follow up, while case 2 remained without evidence of disease for more than one and half years.

9.Medical policy for suicide prevention
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2019;62(2):102-106
Suicide is a serious problem worldwide, especially in Korea, but the factors affecting suicide are complex and diverse. Therefore, a medical policy should be developed to help establish an effective national suicide prevention policy in Korea. To reduce suicide rates effectively, some of the current suicide prevention policies need to be improved. This study proposes the following steps to do so: 1) standardizing the suicide attempt management system, 2) strengthening effective counseling programs in the psychiatric field, and 3) strengthening early psychiatric interventions in patients with a physical illness. These improvements should be considered high-priority measures for ensuring successful suicide prevention at the national level.
