1.TCA chemical peeling.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1993;31(1):1-8
Tricholroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peeling is an effective, versatle and safe therapeutic method for patients with pigmentary disorders, acne scars and aging skin. With an experienced and skilled operator, the associated complications are rare and tend to be mild. No. ystemic toxicity is known to be induced by TCA. We observed the effect of TCA chemical peeling, evaluated by 242 patients themselves with melasma, freckles, senile lentgines, pigmented nevi, seborrheic keratosis, skin tags or acne scars. The patients evaluated TCA peeling as excellent for the treatment of seboirheic keratosis, pigmented nevi, skin tags and acne scars, and as selectively recommendable for the treatment of melasma, freckles and senile lentigines.

The compartment syndrome was described by von Volkmann in 1872 and numerous reports have since been published. The anterior tibial syndrome is well known, but the peroneal compartment syndrome is very rare and have some differences in it's etiology, diagnosis and treatment. We experienced a case of the peroneal compartment syndrome developed after playing foot-ball, and treated by fasciotomy with some delay, but obtained a satisfactory functional result.

It is generally accepted that integrity of the posterior cruciate ligament plays a major role in knee stability. The potential disability resulting from disruption of the posterior cruciate ligament is sufficient to warrant aggressive operative management when the lesion is discovered. From August 1980 to July 1982, the authors treated the 8 cases of the posterior cruciate ligament injury at the department of orthopedic surgery, Chung Ang university hospital; primary repair(2 cases), reconstruction using the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle(6 cases). In the operative procedure of reconstruction using gastrocnemius, we experienced the following obstacle and resolved it effectively. l. In the surgical approach, we choosed the separate incision on the anteromedial and posteromedial aspect of knee and satisfactory results were obtained. 2. In adequate length of the gastrocnemius tendon was resolved by releasing of gastrocnemius as closer to it's femoral condyle origin as possible or together with attached periosteum and bone chips, by fixation of gastrocnemius with pull through wire suture method. 3. In advancement of the gastrocnemius into the knee joint, we used No. 32 chest tube and achieved the smooth enterance. 4. Adequate position of the femoral condyle drill hole was achieved by using hip screw reamer and K-wire.

4.Effects of Electric Stimulation and Biofeedback for Pelvic Floor Muscle Exercise in Women with Vaginal Rejuvenation Women.
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2015;45(5):713-722
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pelvic floor muscle exercise using electric stimulation and biofeedback on maximum pressure of vaginal contraction, vaginal contraction duration and sexual function in women who have had vaginal rejuvenation. METHODS: The research design was a non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design study. Participants in this study were women who had vaginal rejuvenation at C obstetrics and gynecology hospital. The 15 participants in the experimental group were given pelvic floor muscle exercise using electric stimulation and biofeedback and the 15 participants in the control group received self pelvic floor muscle exercise. RESULTS: For maximum pressure of vaginal contraction, the experimental group showed a statistically significant increase compared to than the control group (t=5.96, p<.001). For vaginal contraction duration, the experimental group also showed a statistically significant increase compared to the control group (t=3.23, p=.003). For women's sexual function, the experimental group showed a significant increase when compared to the control group in total sexual function scores (t=3.41, p=.002). CONCLUSION: The results indicate that pelvic floor muscle exercise with electric stimulation and biofeedback after vaginal rejuvenation is effective in strengthening vaginal contraction pressure, vaginal contraction and that it also positively functions to increase women's sexual function.

There are many options for the management of osteoarthritis of the knee joint. Recently, arthroscopic surgery has been added to the armamentorium of the treatment modalities in osteoarthritis of the knee which does not respond to conservative treatment. Among 74 arthroscopic pocedures(including partial menisectomy, removal of loose bodies, synovectomy, cartilage drilling and simple lavage) done for osteoarthritis of the knee, 68 patients studied at average 3.1 years after procedure and the results were as follows 1. Seventy-one percent of patients had at least 2.5 years or more relief of pain and symptoms. 2. Fifty-six percent were still good at follow-up of 3.1 years. 3. The best result were obtained after removal of loose bodies and resection of unstable flap tear of a meniscus in association with mild osteoarthritis. 4. The poor result were obtained in patients with severe degenerative changes of both femoral condyle, 5. The results were much better in the normally aligned knee compared with valgus knee.

Authors measured the degree of posterior instability of the knee in 21 patitients who had posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) injury or have been reconstructed the PCL by using the manual maximal displacement test and quadriceps active test with KT-1000 arthrometer. To compare the reliability between the manual maximal displacement test and the quadriceps active test, two testers participated in the experiment. One tester was a novice and the other tester had substantial clinical experiences with the KT-1000 arthrometer. The quadriceps neutra! Angle was measured in the uninjured knee, and then quadriceps active test was done. Manual maximal displacement test and Quadriceps active test were done by each tester. In manual maximal displacement test, the Pearson correlation coefficient of the uninjured knee between two testers was 0.852 and that of PCL injured knee between two testers was 0.802. In quadriceps achive test, the Pearson correlation coefficient between two testers was 0.173. As a result, the manual maximal displacement test was more reliable for th measurement of the degree of the posterior instability in patients with posterior cruciate ligament tear or reccnstruction.

Glomus tumor is a painful small subcutaneous mass as described by William Wood in 1812. Although seen infrequently and difficult to diagnose, the tumor has been interest to the profession for many years. The normal glomus is an end-organ apparatus which is a remarkable arteriovenous anastomosis functioning without an intermediary capillary bed. Distributed widely over the surface of the body in the deepest layer of the corium or in the stratum reticuiare of the skin, it is most abundant at the distal ends of the extremities. The main function of the glomus body is to aid in the regulation of the skin circulation and, therefore, the peripheral blood pressure and temperature. Glomus tumor represents a hypertrophy of the normal glomus. The gross appearance is that of small soft encapsulated tumor, pink or purple in color, almost always less than one centimeter in diameter if it is located subungually. The microscopic appearance of the tumor closely resembles that of normal glomus, the principal difference being a marked increase in the number of glomal cells (epithelioid cells) and nonmyelinated nerves. Glomus tumor may occur at any age but is most frequent in the middle age of life. Pain, tenderness and temperature sensitivity are the classic triad of symptoms. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice for the glomus tumors. Successful removal of the tumor leads to complete relief of pain and return to normal function. This paper is aimed to report on our experience with 3 cases of subungual glomus tumor which were successfully treated by complete excision and to review the literature.

Penicillamine is a component of the penicillin molecule which was identified in the urine of patients with chronic liver disease who were receiving penicillin for the treament of intercurrent infections. Walshe demostrated its effectiveness as copper chelating agent and introduced it into the treatment of Wilson's disease. In addition, it has been shown to be effective in treatment of cystinuria, heavy metal poisoning, and rheumatoid arthritis. Levamisole is a three-ringed molecule which has been used as broad-spectrum antihelminthic drug. Levamisole is capable of T cell immune enhancer and has variable effects on antibody production, Since immune enhancer may affect multiple cell types, either directly or indirectly, and may operate on the adenylcyclase-cAMP-prostaglandin system, the results of treatment may be complex. Levamisole has been shown to be effective in rheumatoid arthritis by several study. We analysed the 29 rheumatoid arthritis patients who were treated at Deartment of Orthopedic Surgery, Chung Ang University Hospital from June, 1978 to June, 1982; among them 17 recieving penicillamine and 12 recieving levamisole. The results were as follows: 1. There were statistically significant improvement in ESR. But there were decrease in mean WBC and platelet counts in patients recieving penicillamine or levamisole. Hemoglobin was not affected. 2. Side effects led to withdrawal of treatment in 8(47%) patients in the penicillamine group and 5(42%) in the levamisole group. 3. In 17 patients having penicillamine treatment, one patient had complete remission(8%).
