Intracompartmental pressure of leg was measured by the slit catheter technique in one hundred fifty compartments of one hundred cases; fifty were from healthy young male adults, the others were from tibial fractured patients during three years from March 1983 to Fobruary 1986. The results were as follows; 1. Slit-catheter technique was found as a accurate method for continuous pressure monitoring. 2. The range of normal pressure was from zero to six millimeters of mercury(1.45mmHg±0.85). 3. Tissue pressure was 0–15mmHg(4.03mmHg±1.83) in unaffected side of fractured patients, 4–35mmHg(14.65mmHg±2.05) in affected side of fractured patients.

Incomplete fixation of pancreas, which may be associated with a wide mobility of root of SMA, result in chronic midgut volvulus. Movable pancreas is an uncommon form of incomplete intestnal fixation and rotation. Herein, we present a caae of movable pancreas. A patient was a 32-year-old male with the complaint of colicky intermittent abdomnal pain. The abdominal ultrasonography and CT showed a movable pancreas. The head of pancreas was located in the left of the abdominal aorta during the inspiratory time and left decubitus position. At surgery, pancreas was mobile and the root of mesentery was very weak and fibrotic. Duodenum and mesentery were fixed by 0.7 mm Dacron patch along the right peritoneal gutter and the retroperitoneum from ligament of Treitz to the ileocecal attachment. Duodenojejunostomy was performed for the prevention of SMA syndrome. The symptoms disappeared and recovery was prompt. Following the procedure, the patient remains asymptomatic until 10 months after operation

PURPOSE: We investigated the possible inhibitory effect of aspirin during the initiation and post initiating stages on N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (BBN) induced bladder carcinogenesis in female rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-five female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups. Group A received 0.05% BBN in drinking water for 12 weeks. Group B re ceived 0.05% BBN in drinking water with 0.5% aspirin in the diet for 12 weeks. Group C received control diet without added chemicals. The rats were sacrificed after 12 weeks. For identification of chemopreventive effect of aspirin, apoptosis was detected by in situ cell death detection method. The apoptotic index (AI) was calculated from the ratio of typical apoptotic cells relative to the total cells from observation of at least 1000 cells in each preneoplastic lesion among the groups. RESULTS: All cases of group A showed multiple lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia. The incidence of papilloma was 80% in group A. All cases of group B also showed multiple lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia but the incidence of papilloma was decreased to 20%. The total numbers counted of focal hyperplasia and papilloma lesions were significantly reduced in group B than in group A (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). The mean AI in group A and B sequentially increased in preneoplastic lesions, as compared to that in the normal epithelium of the rat bladder. Significant differences in AI in the lesions of simple and focal hyperplasia between group A and B were noted (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The result suggests that aspirin significantly decreases the incidence of precancerous lesions and it can act as a chemopreventive agent for precancerous lesions of urinary bladder.

The nevus spilus, also called speckled lentiginous nevus, presents itself as a patch of melanization dotted by smaller macules of darker color, frequently occuring on the trunk, and in some respect, resembeing the cafe au lait of von Recklinghausens disease and Albrights syndrome. We present clinical and histopathologic observation made on 14 patients, 13 male and 1 female, who agreed to go through a biopsy, during 5 years period from 1975 to 1980. The age at the visit ranged from 11 years to 61, with a mean of 22. 4. The location of lesions were shouIder (in 5 cases), neck (in 2), back (in 2), trunk (in 4),arm (in 1), and buttock (in 1). The epidermal changes consist of hypererkatosis (in 7), acanthosis (in 6), elongation of rete ridge and papillomatosis (in 9), basilar hypermelanosis (in 14), and nevus cell nests(in 3) The dermal changes consists of mild perivascular lymphoid and histiocytic cellular infiltrations (in 11), chromatophores (in 8) and dilated blood vessels (in 6). It is suggested that nevus spilus should be considered as a giant lentigo, a neoplasia of epictermal melanocytes, where junctional nevus is to develop.

Obstructive jaundice of the bile duct resulting from tumor-producing copious, thick mucin, causing ductal obstruction and dilatation, has been reported very rarely. Also, the benign bile duct neoplasm is extremely rare. We report a case of a mucin-secreting villous adenoma of common hepatic duct causing obstructive jaundice and cholangitis. The patient was a 72-year-old male and had a 3 yeared history of common hepatic mass unchanged remarkably in size. The abdominal ultrasonogram and computed tomography revealed well circumscribed, more than 2cm sized mass on the CHD and ductal dilatation. We were able to get an interesting cholangioram showing irregular, nodular, ill defined filling defect in the extrahepatic bile duct, different from US and CT findings, And it was just caused by thick, copious mucin from the tumar. This case was confirmed as mucin-secreting villous adenoma after surgery.

The methods of treatment of discoid meniscus have been in controversy and there are so many reports which represent different results. We analyzed the results of the 91 knees with discoid menisci of 84 patients who had been treated with arthroscopic partial or total meniscectomy, open partial or total meniscectomy, semi-arthroscopic total menisceetomy form June 1982 to Dec. 1987. The puropse of this paper is to present the indication and prognosis of the each method of treatment. There were 45 cases of male, 46 cases of female, and 10 patients were affected both knee. 2 patients who had served arthroscopic partial meniscectomy were reoperated by arthroscopic total meniscectomy due to recurrence of symptom. We classified the types of tear into 7 classes and observed the clinical characteristics and results. The methods we applied were arthroscopic total meniscectomy 40 cases, semi-arthroscopic total meniscectomy 25 cases, arthroscipic partial meniscectomy 16 cases, open partial meniscectomy 3 cases, open total meniscectomy 2 cases, and conservative treatment after arthroscopic diagnosis 5 cases. The follow up cases were 56, and period of follow up was ranged form 11 months to 5 years and 4 months (av. 2 years and 8 months). The results were followings : l. 71.4% of the patients were placed between 11 years and 30 years old, and there was no sexual difference. 2. 11.9% of the patients were affected bilaterally. 3. The commonest clinical symptom and physical sign was clik (67%) and quadriceps muscle atrophy (48.4%) 4. Diagnostic accuracy of knee arthrogram was 88%, but it could not demonstrate the type of tear. In arthrographic finding, the older the patient, the thinner the meniscus was. 5. The commonest type of tear was type V(34.1%) and it was followed by type II (19.8%). 6. There was no difference between the long term results of arthroscopic and semi-arthroscopic total meniscectomy. 7. The results of total meniscectomy is better than partial meniscectomy.8. The method of treatment should be chosen according to the type of terar, so partial meniscectorny is recommended for type II, IV and total meniscictomy is recommended for type III, IV, V and VI. 9. Less hospitalization, earlier recovery, and better result were obtained by the arthroscopic or semi-arthroscopic total meniscectomy.
