OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to develop a program for predicting individual cancer risk and to validate its discrimination power between case and control groups. METHODS: The author used the five databases for searching journals about risk factors of six major cancers in Koreans: stomach, liver, colorectal, breast, uterine cervix and lung cancer. The risk models were selected from journals presenting a multivariate linear logistic regression analysis. The baseline hazards which had no risk factors were calculated, and a cancer risk assessment program was developed using relative risks based on risk factors' combination and baseline hazards. Case-control study was performed for five years to validate the program. RESULTS: The discrimination power between case and control was 0.827 in stomach cancer, 0.949 in liver cancer, 0.594 in colorectal cancer, 0.587 in breast cancer, 0.708 in uterine cervix cancer and 0.663 in lung cancer. The estimated cancer probabilities were higher in all case groups compared to the control groups. CONCLUSION: The developed program is considered to be a valid tool for estimating probabilities of cancer development in Koreans. It is expected to be useful for the assessment of individual cancer risks, the selection of screening tools and preventive options for risk reduction.

Treatment of infected nonunions of long bone is confronted with various difficult problem, e.g. eradication of infection and osseous union even in the presence of devastating infection. To solve this problem various method were proved including exerternal fixation, electrical stimulation and functional casting method with some success. Intreating these difficult infected nonunions, we adopted another program which includes through debridment of the infected and necrotic soft tissue and bone, autogenous bone graft, rigid internal fixation of fragments and ope.n drainage of the wound until union of the fracture. We treated 8 cases of infected nonunions with this method from march, 1980 to september 1983 and results are as follows: 1. Satisfactory union was obtained within average 5 months. 2. In some cases pus drainage continued even after osseous union but it was easily controlled after removal of fixation devices. 3. After bone union and removal of internal fixation devices, some kind of protective measures, e.g. crutches and braces were used for about 6 montes to prevent refracture. 4. In conclusion our method is considered to be an effctive means is treating infected nonunion of fractures.

The author has reviewed 62 patients with brachial plexus injuries who treated at Department of orthopaedic Surgery, Kyung Hee University Hospital during the period from Dec. 1978 to June 1985. Among these, conservative treatment was performed in 8 patients, 64 cases of 54 patients were treated by 4 types of operation, that is, exploration with neurolysis, neurorraphy, nerve graft and neurotization for restoration of elbow flexion, wrist, finger flexion and shoulder abduction. The patients were followed up more than one year to five years and eight months, average being two yesrs and six months. The whole arm type injury was the most common. The trunk level was the most common. The prognosis of whole arm type was the most severe. And the prognosis of supraclavicular lesion was worse than that of infraclavicular. There were two types of treatment, conservative treatment in 8 patients, operative treatment in 54 patients. By comparing results according to methods of treatment, neurotization with intercostal nerve were useful in avulsion cases of unsatisfactory results following neurolysis, neurorraphy and nerve graft. The operation time of the first three months to six months after injury gave the best chance of success. The result of conservative treatment in all 8 patients was poor.
