Modified Mohs surgery is a procedure which eliminated chemical fixation step from Mohs chemosurgery. This technique is faster, less painful and more tissue conserving, allows for immediste repairs, yields higher quality histologic preparations and facilitates an interdisciplinary apporoach; it is the treatment of choice for recurrent or difficult skin cancers. A 58-year-old femele patient presented with a 2x 3cm sized dark brownish, ulcerated nodule on the left upper eyelid. Histopathologic findings revealed several small solid nest composed of basalioma cells in the dermis. We treated with modified Mohs surgery and obtained good result.

We report a case of trichorrhexis nodosa in a 27-year-old male. Scanning electron microscopic findings reveals those of typical trichorrhexis nodosa nodal swelling of affected hair showed longitudinal fissures and fractures in the cortex. A paintbrush effect was noted at the site of fracture. Simple avoidance of trauma gave some regrowth of hairs.

The purpose of this study was to determine the proliferative activity of the osteoblasts and fibroblasts in the midpalatal area and to investigate the adjacent periodontal tissues of individual tooth following rapid expansion of the palate. Ten young adult dogs, aged approximately ten months, were used in the experiment. The experimental design was consisted of 1 week expansion group(Group E1, 3 dogs), 2 week expansion group(Group E2, 3 dogs), 2 week expansion and 2 week retention group(Group E3, dogs), and control group(Group C, 1 dog). For each group, expansion screw was activated one time per day(1/4 turn;90degrees) following Hyrax-screw application. The experimental animals in each group were sacrificed at 1, 2 and 4 weeks following palatal expansion. Maxillary tissue blocks wee obtained and prepared for the histomorphologic and immunohistochemical studies. Light microscope, polarizing microscope, and soft X-ray apparatus were used in this study, and following results were obtained. 1. In polarizing microscopic study, the expansion group(E1 & E2) showed blue color representing bone resorption and new bone formation in midpalatal suture area. E3 groups showed less color compared to the E1 and E2 group. But yellow color increased by calcification in the E3 groups. 2. Immunohistochemical study revealed that positive responses of the osteoblasts to PCNA and undifferentiated fibroblasts to EGF in E1 group were somewhat increased. Positive response to PCNA and EFG were increased in fibroblasts and the osteoblasts forming new bone in E2 group. In E3 group, the positive response cell concentrated the periphery of edge of palatal process in both PCNA and EGF. 3. Throughout the expansion period(E1 & E2), light microscopic study showed the edges of the extensive resorption new palatal processes, indication bone remodeling within the suture. E3 group exhibited less remodeling of midpalatal suture area. E2 group and E3 group showed cementum formation and resorption at the apex of 3rd premolar and 1st molar. E3 group exhibited extensive hyalinized zone on the cervical portion of buccal side of 1st molar. 4. Soft X-ray analysis of E1 group showed hypomineralized defect and microfractures in various parts of the suture areas when compared with control animals. There was no significant difference in the degree of mineralization in the midpalatal suture region between the C and E3 groups. Tooth axis showed tipping of 3rd premolar and 1st molar in the E2 group and E3 group. Based upon these experimental results, it is concluded that the undifferentiated mesenchymal cells always presented in midpalateal suture area following RPE. Differentiated osteoblasts and fibroblasts possess proliferating cellular activity until the 2 week retention period. The posterior teeth area tend to tip buccally as RPE force applied. Retention group exhibited irreversible response with severe hyalinized on the buccal surface of the first molar.

Chondromalacia patella is a symptom complex characterized by aching pain behind the knee cap, retropatella tenderness that is aggravated by the stair climbing. Malalignment is an important factor causing chondromalacia patella. And to recognize it, is important in the diagnosis and treatment. We studied 3 parameters in the chondromalacic knee and nonchondromalacic knee and the following results was obtained. l. In nonchondromalacic knee, the sulcus angle is 141° 7′ and the congruence angle is −5° 1′ 2. In chonduomalacic knee the sulcus sagle is 139° 2′ and the congruence angle is +5° 3′ 3. In the group with abnormal congruence angle, there was much degenerative changes in the patellofemaral joint. So, it can be inferred that chondromalacia is a precursor of the osteoarthritis and the patient with abnormal congruence angle should be treated actively at the early stage if the conservative treatment had failed.

PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to provide a trend analysis of the prevalence of diabetes relative to the socioeconomic, lifestyle, and physiologic risk factors among Korean adults aged over 30 years for a 10-year period using data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. METHODS: Prevalence difference and the slope index of inequality were calculated for each risk factors using binomial regression by considering the repeated cross-sectional features of the data. The prevalence ratio and the relative index of inequality were calculated using log-binomial regression. Linear trend tests were performed using SAS 9.2. RESULTS: Crude prevalence of diabetes increased over the 10-year period, and was higher for men than for women. It was very high for adults 60 years or over, consistently increasing over time. The prevalence among unemployed men, women with higher level of stress, women with hypertension, and adults with serum triglyceride levels over 135 mg/dL increased over the 10-year period in comparison with the respective control group. CONCLUSION: Considering the rapid economic development and associated lifestyle changes in Korea, action should be taken to control the prevalence of diabetes by both preventing and consistently monitoring these identified risk factors using a public-health approach.

10.Testicular Injuries-Efficacy of the Organ Injury Scale Developed by the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma.
Korean Journal of Urology 2007;48(1):61-65
PURPOSE: According to the AAST (American Association for the Surgery of Trauma) injuries to the testes are rare, but there are many reports in the literature on other organs using the AAST Organ Injury Scale (OIS). In the present study, the authors evaluated the usefulness of the AAST OIS when applied to the testis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review was performed on 65 patients (mean age 30.0 years) with a testis injury treated between March 1986 and July 2006. Of the 65 patients, preoperative ultrasonography was performed on 51. Injuries were classified according to the OIS of the AAST, based on history taking, a physical examination and scrotal ultrasonography. RESULTS: Of the 51 patients, 46 and 5 underwent surgical intervention and conservative management, respectively. Of the included patients, 38 were found to have abnormal testis contours on ultrasonography, 29 had a rupture of the tunica albuginea, with a sensitivity of 76.3%. Of the 13 patients with normal contours, the tunica albuginea was normal in 7, and 8 underwent operation, with a specificity of 87.5%. Of the 12 Grade I patients, 7 underwent an operation, but the testes contours were normal. Of the 8 Grade II patients, only 1 underwent a primary repair with partial orchiectomy, but of the 45 Grades III, IV or V patients, 35 underwent a primary repair with a partial orchiectomy or orchiectomy with a hematoma evacuation performed in 10. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasonography was found to be the most effective modality for detecting a rupture of the tunica albuginea, and the authors conclude that the AAST OIS can be used to determine the treatment modality. Our recommended treatment policy is as follows; conservative for Grade I, exploration and repair for Grade II, and exploration, and a partial orchiectomy or orchiectomy for Grades III, IV or V. In particular, an orchiectomy is the most commonly used modality for Grade V.
