1.Comparative Study of the Cervical Cytology, Colposcopic Impression and Directed Biopsy on the Role of the Diagnostic Approach to the Cervical Carcinoma.
Korean Journal of Gynecologic Oncology and Colposcopy 1994;5(1):56-63
A total of 369 patients with abnoirmal cervical eytology and suspicious lesions of the cervix were colposcoped end 356 patients of whom were, taken directed biopsy to assess the lesions preeisely and compare the aeeuracy of the eaeh methods. The results of cervical cytology were elso compared with the colpoacopic impression and colposcopically directed biopsies. 252 patients with abnr;irmal colyoaeopie findings were performl conization, simple hiysterectomy or radical hysterectomy depending on their current idisease statua. The rate of one grade less or more advanced correlation between the cervical cytology and directed biopsy was 72.4% and thiat of two grade less wns 80.3% and as for the correletion between the colposcopic imprwssions and the colposcopically directed biopsies, the rate of ciompatibility was 91.5%. Bases on the hetopathologic findings of the surgical apeeimen, the eompatibility rotcs of eervical cytology, colposcopic impressions and colposcopilIy divected hiopsies were 70.2%, 90.6% and 98.0% respectively. With these results, we can reach a conclusion that the colpnscopic impression itself is almost as accurate as the colposcopicolly directed biosy and the directed biopsy can take the place of conization so far as the diagnostic accuracy is concerned.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of total hip arthroplasty using a proximal modular femoral stem in patients who had secondary coxarthrosis associated with a deformed femur. Materials and Methods: Forty-two patients (45 hips) with secondary coxarthrosis were evaluated after primary total hip arthroplasty using an S-ROM proximal modular femoral stem, between January 2001 and March 2004. The average follow-up was 44 months (range, 24 to 60 months). The mean age of the patients was 48.5 years old and there was a predominance of female patients (65.5%). The preoperative diagnoses included 26 cases of developmental dysplasia of the hip, 13 cases of sequalae of LCP, 2 cases of epiphyseal dysplasia, 3 cases of sequalae of pyogenic arthritis, and 1 case of congenital coxa vara. Results: The average Harris hip score improved from 52.2 points to 85.5 points. All the femoral stems demosntrated stable fixation, which included 37 cases by bony ingrowth and 8 cases by stable fibrous ingrowth. Neither osteolysis nor progressive radiolucent lines around the femoral stems were found at the latest follow-up. Postoperative complications included: 2 cases of hip dislocations, 1 case of periprosthetic fracture, 1 case of infected cup loosening, and 1 case of sciatic nerve palsy. Overall, forty-one hips (91.9%) exhibited excellent or good clinical results at the most recent follow-up. Conclusion: For advanced secondary coxarthrosis, total hip arthroplasty with use of a proximal modular femoral stem yielded good mid-term results based on clinical and radiological criteria.

Hip & Pelvis 2016;28(4):243-248
Idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip usually develops in adolescents and is a disease characterized by gradual degenerative changes of the hyaline cartilage surrounding the head of the femur. It eventually decreases the hip joint space and causes limitations in the hip joint range of motion due to pain. The authors had experienced an unusual case of bilateral idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip in an 54 year-old male; thus, we report the treatment results and literature reviews in this case report.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ventricular conduction abnormalities, especially RBBB, observed electrocardiographically after surgical closure of VSD. The present study population consists of 92 patients with VSD who were surgically corrected at the Hanyang University Hospital during 6 years period from Jan. 1985 to Dec. 1990. We reviewed their clinical records including surgical notes and EKG findings before and after operations. The results of the study were as follows: 1) Male to female ratio was 1.1:1 (48:44) 2) Out of a total of 92 cases of VSD, 65cases(70.7%)were perimembranous type and 27 cases (29.3%)were subarterial type. 3) The normal preoperative EKG findings were seen in 22 patients, LVH in 21 patients, BUH in 47patients, and RVH in 3 patiens. 4) A transatrial approach was performed in 55 cases, right ventriculotomy with or without resection of muscles in right ventricle in 13 cases, and pulmonary arteriotomy alone in 24 cases. 5) The right bundle branch block after operation developed in 33 patients out of the 65 patinets with perimembranous defect and 5 patients out of the 27 patients with subarterial defects. Postoperative RBBB developed more frequently in perimembranous defect than in subarterial defect. 6) Postoperative RBBB occured in 31.8% of the patients with normal preoperative EKG findings, 23.8% with preoperative LVH, 52.1% with BVH and 66.7% with RVH. Postoperative RBBB was more frequently observed in the patients group with preoperative BVH or RVH than the patients with normal or LVH. 7) Postoperative RBBB was observed in 84.6% after right wentriculotomy, in 43.6% after right atriotomy and in 12.5% with pulmonary arteriotomy alone.

Malignant esophago-bronchial fistula is an incurable and distressing condition. The passage of swallowed saliva and solid or liquid food into the bronchial tree causes coqghing and frequent pulmonary infection and collapse. Most patients are unfit for major surgery, but intubation offers a quick, simple and effective treatment with improved length and quality of life. However, intubation with simple esophageal tubes are liable to result in failure to occlude the fistela, migration of the tube, erosion, and in the case of latex tubes, disintegration. To overcome these problems, the fistula is intubated perorally with a prosthesis surrounded by a foam rubber cuff contained ia silicone sheath, in which vacuum can be created. This cuffed prosthesis is the most satisfactory design for the treatment of malignant esophago-bronchial fistula with effiective and gentle occlusion of the fistula without risk of pressure necrosis. We experienced a case of the endoscopic treatment with a cuffed prosthesis for malignant esophago-bronchial fistula. So we report this case with brief review of the previous literatures.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to assess the mid-term results of primary cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) using Summit® stems. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred twenty-eight arthroplasties in 121 patients who were performed THA from December 2004 to March 2013, were reviewed retrospectively a minimum of 4 years follow-up (mean age, 60.3 years; mean postoperative follow up period, 86.3 months). For a clinical evaluation, the Harris hip score (HHS) was used to assess outcome. Radiographic evaluation was done through spot welds, subsidence, stress shielding, canal filling. RESULTS: The mean HHS was 69.8 points preoperatively, and it improved significantly to 96.3 points at the final follow-up. Postoperatively, 10 patients experienced thigh pain and 7 patients showed a moderate limping gait. There was not only early stem subsidence but there was no more subsidence at last follow up. One hundred eighteen hips showed radiographic signs of stem bone ingrowth, and 10 hips showed fibrous ingrowth at the last follow-up. Stress shielding occurred in 85 hips and third degree stress shielding was observed in 6 hips. Complication arose in 10 hips due to dislocation. Although revisions due to recurrent dislocations led to acetabular component revision in one hip, no revisions arose due to isolated aseptic loosening of the femoral component. CONCLUSION: The clinical and radiological mid-term results of primary THA using Summit® stems revealed solid initial fixation and bone ingrowth stable fixation. Considering the satisfactory clinical results, Summit® stems may be a good treatment option in Korean patients who were required hip arthroplasty
