Two cases of hyperlipoproteinemia is reported, Hyperlipoproteinemia is characterized by various kinds of cutaneous xanthomatosis associated with or without arteriosclerotic changes due to increasing lipoprotein fraction of the serum. Case I . 37-year old housewife had multiple, pea to nut sized, various shaped, cutaneous and subcutaneous nodular masses has been developed last 3 years. Some of her family member have similar symptoms. Serum cholesterol level was 790 mg% and serum triglyceride level was 270 mg% after 14 hour fasting. Case II. 52-year old housewife was suffered from pea sized, multiple, subcutaneous nodular and cutaneous eruptions last 2 years. There was no family histories. Serum cholesterol level was 895 mg% and serum triglyceride level was 350 mg% after 14 hour fasting. Typical Touton giant cells were found in biopsy specimens taken from cutaneous lesons. ECG, X-ray, glucose toleranc test and other laboratory examinations showed within normal limits. Tne agarose electrophoresis pattern of serum lipoprotein fractions are very similiar with that of hyperlipoproteinemia type II. These two patients were treated with nicotinic and 1. 0 gm and clofibrate 2.0 gm daily by mouth and restricted animal fatty foods. Total serum cholesterol level was markedly decreasea 2 months after treatment in case I.

Transient synovitis of the hip joint in children was first described by Lovett and More in 1892and is the commonest cause of painful hip in children. It is characterized by pain and limp of acute onset, generally shart-lived, unassociated with structural changes in the femoral capital epiphysis demonstrable roentgenographically.. The pathology is of interest, not because it is a disabling condition, but because of the difficulties in differentiating it from more serious disease of the hip such as Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, tuberculosis, osteomyelitis and etc. The 76 cases so diagnosed at the Han-II hospital from 1974 to 1983 were reviewed and reported as follows; 1. There was probably associated with predisposing factors such as infection, and trauma. 2. The diagnostic criteria were clinical symptoms, laboratory and radiological findings. 3. The treatment was bed rest, skin traction on the affected leg, non-weight bearing, antibiotics, sedatives and in a few cases, INH was administrated for the prevention of the tuberculosis. 4. Four hips among them revealed later as Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and tuberculous arthritis of the hip joint.
