Malignant mixed mullerian tumor (MMMT) is an unusual tumor composed of malignant epithelial and nonepithelial components in the same lesion and is subdivided into homologous and heterologous types. Epidemiologically, these tumors are associated with prior pelvic irradiation, functioning ovarian lesions, exogenous estrogen therapy and rarely endometriosis. We experienced a case of uterine MMMT which arose from adenomyosis in a 47-year-old woman who had no specific past medical history. The posterior uterine corpus showed a 3.5x3.0x2.0 cm sized, relatively well defined tumor mass within the background of the adenomyosis. The tumor was composed of well differentiated endometrial adenocarcinoma and sarcomatous stroma with foci of rhabdomyosarcomatous differentiation confirmed by immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies. Through the immunohistochemical study, both the epithelial and nonepithelial components were positive for cytokeratin and it suggested that the sarcomatous area originated from metaplasia of the adenocarcinoma component. From the overall findings, it is regarded as an uterine heterologous MMMT which arose from adenomyosis.

A case of multiple myeloma associated with adenocarcinoma of the stomach was review. A 59-year, old Korean man had been abmitted to St. Mary's Hospital in January 1984, with chief complaint of posterior neck pain, and intermittent headache for one year prior to amission. Osteo lytic punched-out lesions were noted on skull and other skeletal x-ray films. Bone marrow aspirates revealed diffuse infiltration of mature and immature plasma cells. Laboratory findings revealed anemia and Bence-Jones proteinuria. Immunoelectrophoresis revealed findings consistent with IgA-lamda type multiple myloma. Alkylating agents and steroids were tried with some clinical improvements. In August 1985, the patient revisited outpatient clinic with chief complaints of epigastric pain and neck mass. Endoscopic biopsy and excision biopsy of the cervical lymph node were performed. By microscopic examination, adenocarcinoma of the stomach and metastasis of multiple myeoma to the supraclavicular lymph nodes were confirmed. Subtotal gastrectomy was performed. By gross and microscopic revealed metastasis to the regional lymph nodes.

The study was undertaken to determine the most adequate tidal volume when used volume preset ventilator during anesthesia. The thirty patients were received controlled mechanical ventilation with constant inspiratory pressure of 10 cmH2O and respiratory frequency of 12/minute. The results were as follows: 1) The PH was 7.39±0.01 and it is within normal limit. 2) The PaCO2 was 34.0±0.6 mmHg and it is a slightly hyperventilatory state. 3) The PaO2 was 228.0±8.2 mmHg. 4) The Buffer base was 20.7±0.3 mEq/L and it is a slightly buffer base deficient state. From the above results. We concluded that if patients were fully relaxed during general anesthesia, it is desirable to maintain the inspiratory pressure of anesthetic mechanical ventilator to 10 cmH2O for adequate alveolar ventilation.

The clinical observation was performed on 32 patients of acetabular fracture, who had been admitted and treated at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of Medicine, Busan National University from January 1980 to December 1983. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The prevalent age ranged from 20 to 50 years, which comprised 71.9% and the ratio between males and females was 2.6: l. 2. The causes of injury were 16 cases of traffic accident, which comprised the highest incidence, 10 falling down and 6 direct blow. 3. According to Letournels classification, 21 cases (65.6%) were simple fractures, llcases(34.4%) were associated fractures. 4. Total patients associated injuries of another part of body were 24 cases#{75.0%) among them pelvic bone fracture was the most common fractured case and cerebral concussion was the most common soft tissue injury. 5. 2 types of treatment were performed, one was 18 conservative treatment and the other was 14 surgical treatment which was performed by open reduction and internal fixation. 6. The satisfactory result of conservative treatment was 61.6% and surgical treatment was 85.7. 7. The complications were 7 cases(21.9) of degenerative arthritis, ectopic ossification in 2cases (6.3%), avascular necrosis, superficial infection, and secondary displacement of fracture site in 1 case(3.1%) respectively. 8. The anatomical reduction and internal fixation was an important factor in treatment of acetabular fracture, especially in severe displaced articular fracture.

Methods of management of Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease (LCPD) are at present controversial. Some practical prognostic indices were imperative for proper management of the disease. .We followed up on twenty LCPD patients-14 who underwent varization osteotomy of proximal femur and 6 who underwent pelvic innominate osteotomy or shelf procedure-for more than 3 years and analyzed the results using the Stulberg classification. There were three requirements for the hip to be included in this study: follow-up until residual stage occurred, Catterall group III or IV and complete clinical and radiological data. The purpose of this study-was to determine the validity of radiological and clinical factors in predicting prognosis in surgical treatments. Results of the evaluation were as follows; 1.Age was found to be an important prognostic index. Older children aged > 9 years tended to do worse than younger children (P<0.05). Other prognostic indices were not found to be statistically significant. 2. When Stulberg classification IV atients were considered, there were common factors in the children who were more than 9 years old, were of Catterall group IV, and late fragmentation stage disease with more than 1.5 of the lateral subluxation index, regardless of treatment. 3. Although Catterall's classification had been widely accepted, Catterall group III or IV seemed to be difficult to be distinguished. Many cases that had been regarded as Catterall group IV were proved to have intact posteromedial portion of femoral head later in residual stage. 4. Even though well-known prognostic indices were important in anticipating the results, we considered additional unknown biomechanical factors. In some cases continuous deformation of femoral head would not be prevented even though necrotic portion of femoral head was well contained by surgical treatment.
