Is superselective embolization of the brain AVMs, the possibilities of adjacent normal brain tissue damage necessitates preembolic evaluation. The authors performed the Sodium Amytal test on 15 patients with brain AVMs. In the AVM patients with negative Amytal test(30 cases), all patients showed normal pattern on EEG and neurologic examinations after embolization Among the five patients with positive Amytal test, three cases showed neurologic deficit and the others two didn't. In eleven patients. Repeated embolization without the Amytal test were done. Among them, 5 cases showed neurlogic deficit and the others were quite normal. In conclusion, the Amytal test is a useful method of evaluation of the risk to damage normal brain tissue which are supplied by superselected feeding vessels. Combining the EEG with this test is a sensitive and objective method in evaluating patients following the Amytal test. And it is essential to performed the Amytal test for repeat embolization procedures.

An autopsy case of spontaneous rupture of urinary bladder followed by longstanding chronic and acute hemorrhagic cystitis associated with anomalous course of the right ureter and pyo-hydronephrosis, and acutely disseminated tuberculous pneumonia in a twenty-two-year-old Korean Army soldier is presented. Pathogenesis of spontaneous rupture of urinary bladder is briefly discussed.

It is notoriously difficult to obtain a sound bony union of large segmental bone defects secondary to trauma or following tumor resection, infected nonunion, congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia, and avascular necrosis of the femoral head with conventional methods. Recent advances in microsurgery have made it possible to provide a continuing circulation of blood in bone grafts so as to ensure viability. With the nutrient blood supply preserved, healing of the graft to the recipient bone is facilitated without the usual replacement of the graft by creeping substitution. Thus, the grafted bone is achieved more rapid stabilization of bone fragments separated by a large defect without sacrificing viability. Thirty nine cases of the free vascularized fibular graft had been performed in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Kyung Hee University Hospital during the period of 3 years from October 1978 to December 1981. Of these, ll cases were congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia, 4 cases were tuberculous spondylitis, 4 cases were infected nonunion, 7 cases were large segmental bone defects secondary to trauma, 9 cases were avascular necrosis of the femoral head and the other was one case. The results were obtained as follows: 1. The advantages of free vascularized living fibular graft are one stage procedure, resistance of torsion and angular stress, union with rapid hypertrophy of the graft, a shorter immobilization period and more rapid incorporation of the graft into the recipient area. 2. Free vascularized fibular graft can be widely used in the field of Orthopedic surgery. 3. The fibula is the bone best suited for reconstruction of a defect in a long bone. 4. In children, distal tibiofibular synostosis must be performed. 5. For prevention of clawing toe, the muscles around the bone is meticulously dissected, 6. Evaluation by selective arteriography and isotopic scanning both before and after operation may be used to assess the viability of the fibula graft.

Argon laser iridotomy is at present the procedure of choice in Korea for the treatment of pupillarx block and angle closure glaucoma. However, despite modified argon laser techniques, difficulties in penetration of irides and closure of hole have been widely reported. Recently reported Q-switched Nd-YAG laser iridotomy have a many complications such as bleeding, lenticular opacity and small hole. And so argon laser and Nd-YAG laser combined iridotomy was performed on 80 eyes, 57 patients with angle closure glaucoma. The follow up period ranged from 1 to 14 months. 71(88.7%) of 80 eyes treated required a single lasing session for patency, and six eyes required two sessions and three eyes required three sessions. Closure of the iridotomy site occurred in 6.2% of eyes, an incidence remarkably lower than that of argon laser iridotomy alone. Localized lenticular opacity and bleeding were not observed, but immediate postoperative iritis and elevation of intraocular pressure were observed.
