Systemic tumor embolisms after pulmonary resections for malignancy are rare, but usually severe and sometimes fatal. Here, we report a case of a 70-year-old woman who underwent pulmonary resection for lung cancer and subsequently developed acute arterial occlusion of the lower extremities caused by a tumorous embolus.

After the performance of 100 coronary cineangiographies in 100 paitents who were adminitted to Soonchunhyang University Hospital under the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease from July 1986 to October 1987, we observed the coronary collateral circulation and measured the ejection fraction, circumferential fiber shortening, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and pulmonary artery wedge pressure in 52 paitents who had 50% or more stenosis in one or more coroanry arteries. The results were as follow : 1) The collaterall circulation was observed in 16 patients(30.8%) of the 52 patients and it was developed mainly(87.5) in patients with 90% or more coronary artery stenosis. In patients with stenosis of less than 90%, however, collateral circulation was observed rarely(12.5%). 2) The left ventricular wall motion abnormality was severe in the group without collateral circulation. 3) The collteral circulation was most frequently developed in patients with severe right coronary artery stenosis and most of the routes were supplied from contralateral coronary arteries. 4) There was no significant difference in ejection fraction, circumferential fiber shortening, left ventricular end-diastoic pressure and pulmonary artery wedge pressure between the 2 groups with and without coronary artery collateral circulation.

Plexiform neurofibroma is considered a pathognomic of Von Recklinghousen's disease, which involves the deep and large nerve trunk. These are large irregular nerve fascicles which result from an increase in endoneural matrix within individual nerve facicles, without an increased number of nerve fibers. We experenced a case of Von Recklinghausen's disease in a 24 year-old male who had variable cutaneous skeletal, and CNS lesions. He presented multiple neurofibromas, cafe-au-lait spots, and axillary freckles as common cutaneous lesions of NF-I and giant pigmentation, sacral hypertrichosis, and plexiform neurofibroma as unusual cutaneous lesions. Also he had a scoliosis, bowing deformity of the humerous and wedging deformity of the body of the 5th cervical spine as a skeletal manifestation and cortical calcification in the occipital area as a CNS manifestation.

Miescher syndrome comprises congenital acanthosis nigricans, hypertrichosis, failure to thrive and short stature, dysmorphism especially of the jaws and oral cavity, insulin-resistant diabetes mellitus, and a characteristic general appearance. This report concerns a rare case of 12-year-old girl having insulin resistant diabetic mellitus with Miescher syndrome. The relevant literature was reviewed.

Fibrous Dysplasia of bone is a relatively rare condition characterized by fibrous tissue replacement of skeleton. It may be monostotic (confined to one bone) or polyostotic (situated in many bones). Here, six cases of fibrous dysplasia and, among them, typical three groups classified by Lichtenstein & Jaffe were experienced and treated during past one year. Three cases were monostotic lesion, which is more common, and usually mild and asymptomatic. And another three cases were polyostotic lesion, two of which were not associated with extraskeletal symptoms, and one case was associated with extraskeletal symptoms, so called Albrights disease. These six cases of fibrous dysplasia are reported with a review of the literatures.
