The mesoblastic nephroma is a rare benign renal tumor that frequently appears as a neonatal abdominal mass. This benign tumor is composed primarily of connective tissue that growth between intact nephrons and often replaces most of the renal parenchyme. Contrast media within the calyceal systems are seen within the tumor representing function by nephrons trapped within the mass. Prognosis after complete excision is excellent.

Primary ovarian choriocarcinoma is an extremely rare germ cell neoplasm, and the prognosis is poor. Especially, the diagnosis of primary ovarian nongestational chori-ocarcinoma can be reliably established in a girl or innocent virgin. We report a case of primary ovarian, nongestational, pure choriocarcinoma in a 16-year-old woman. She died within 1 year after diagnosis in spite of the treatment with surgery and combin-ation chemotherapy.

In the diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma, it is very important to evaluate the outflow facility and intraocular pressure. Although tonography affords one of the most convenient methods for the estimating the outflow facility, there have been many efforts to overcome its inhernt inaccuracy. Honan introcular pressure reducer(HIPR) is widely used prior to cataract surgery because it is believed to be clinically safe and effective in reducing intraocular pressure, vitreous volume and the risk of vitreous loss. For the evaluation of the effects of HIPR in relation to outflow facility, the intraocular pressures were measured with applanation tonometer in 30 nonglaucomatous and 30 glaucomatous patients before and immediately after the application of HIPR at a pressure 30mmHg for 30 minutes, and then repeatedly at 5-minute intervals for 30 minutes thereafter. The results were as follows; 1. Mean initial IOPs were 15.6 +/- 2.71mmHg in nonglaucomatous patients and 20.7 +/- 2.71mmHg in glaucomatous patients. 2. Mean IOPs immediately after commpression were 4.3 +/- 1.38mmHg in nonglauco matous patients and 10.3 +/- 0.95mmHg in glaucomatous patients. 3. Mean IOP reductions were 11.20 +/- 1.89mmHg in nonglaucomatous patients and 10.45 +/- 1.69mmHg in glaucomatous patients. 4. Mean IOP reduction rates were 72.8% in nonglaucomatous patients and 50.3% in glaucomatous patients. 5. Mean IOP recovery times were 24.5 minutes in nonglaucomatous patients and more than 30 minutes in glaucomatous patients. 6. Rates of IOP recovery after 25 minutes elapsed were 76.6% in nonglaucomatous patients and 10% in glaucomatous patients. On the basis of the results HIPR may be considered to be beneficial in clinical diagnosis of open angle glaucoma.

Eight strains of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella typhi were isolated from Kyonggi area during January-February,1997. They were resistant to ampiciUin, amoxicillin, carbeniciillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, trimethoprim. Eight strains had one plasmid respectively which size was approximately M.W 220 kb and showed same restriction pattern by endonuclease HindIII. The plasmid was similar to the plasmid in size that was related to multidrug resistant S. typhi isolated from southeast Asia. It were transferred by conjugation to recipient E, coli K-12 in frequency of 2.43 x10-4 - 1.73 x 10-2 and transconjugant showed same drug-resistant pattem with donor cells. All of 8 strains produced B-lactamase that was assummed to TEM-1 type by isoelectric focusing and PCR.
