Authors reviewed 21 cases of histologically confirmed rib tumor except metastasis and myeloma from Nov. 1973 to Dec. 1982 at Seoul National University Hospital. The resuls are as follows: 1. Major clinical findings are painand mass. 2. Pathologic diagnosis of rib tumors are 5 cases of fibrous dysplasia, 3 chondroma, 2 osteochondroma, 2desmoplastic fibroma, 3 chondroma, 2 osteochondroma, 2 desmoplastic fibroma, 5 osteosarcoma, 1 aneurysmal bonecyst, 1 eosinophilic granuloma, 1 cavernous hemangioma, 1 chondrosarcoma. 3. Radiologic findings are osteolyticchange and cortical expansion without marginal sclerosis in fibrous dysplasia, central location, well-definedosteolytic change with marginal sclerosis and no cortical destruction in desmoplastic fibroma, corticaldestruction, soft tissue mass and pleural effusion in malignant tumors.

Fat containing masses, except mediastinal lipomatosis, of the thorax are uncommon. In spite of uncommonoccurences, as CT can detect not only the fat content but also the presence and character of the non-fattycomponent of the mass, accurate preoperative diagnosis can usually be made in most cases of fat containingmediastinal masses. Authors report 6 cases of fat containing mediastinal masses, that were diagnosedpreoperatively by CT scan, comprising 2 cases of limpoma(combined with plexiform neurofibroma in a case), 1liposarcoma, 1 thymolipoma, and 2 cases of omental hernia through Morgagni foramen.

OBJECTIVE: The study of 467 cases of amniocentesis have been done at the department of Genetics, Taegu Cheil Hospital from Oct. 1997 to May 1999 for the purpose of analysis of abnormal karyotype according to the indication and age distribution, METHODS: We collected amniotic fluid using 22G spinal needle and measured amniotic alphafetoprotein and acetylcholine esterase in supematant and performed cytogenetic analysis. RESULTS: Positive Down screeing(positive triple test) was the most common indication of amniocentesis (61.5%) and abnormal karyotypes were 24 cases(5.1%) in 467 cases. Among 24 abnormal cases, 10 cases(2.1%) of 21 trisomy were observed. Abnormal karyotypes were most common in the group of abnormal ultrasonogram finding and the gmup of maternal age between 31 to 35 years old, which consists of 25% and 7.7% respectively. CONCLUSION: More attention for the abnormal karyotype should be paid to the group of abnormal ultrasonogram finding and the group of maternal age between 31 to 35 years old as well as above 35 years old.

The importance of tick-borne diseases is increasing because of climate change, with a lack of long-term studies on tick-borne pathogens in South Korea. To understand the epidemiological characteristics of tick-borne diseases, the monthly distribution of field ticks throughout the year was studied in South Korea between May 2014 and April 2018 in a cross sectional study.
