2.Open Men iscal Repair of the Knee Joint
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1994;29(5):1411-1416
The meniscus has improtant functions of shock absorption, load transmission, lubrication and significant contribution to stability of the knee. Accordingly, repair rather than excision can be expectd to be satisfactory and functional teatment for knee joint. We had Repaired 56 cases of meniscal tears from March, 1987 to September of 1992, among which 42 cases were followed up for at least 12 months to 60 months at most(in average 36 months). The results were as follows; 1) In medial meniscal tears, 26 cases were acute, while five were chronic. As for the lateral meniscus, acute and chronic teats were observed in nine and two cases, respectively. 2) Eleven of the 35 acute tears were associated with anterior cruciate ligament tears, while three of seven chronic tears were associated with anterior cruciate ligament tears. 3) Second-look arthroscopic examinations were performed on nine repaired cases. Retears occurred in two cases and seven cases revealed healing at repair sites. 4) Two cases(5%) out of 42 repaired menisci were return during follow-up. One was a case of isolated meniscal tear and the other was associated with rupture of anterior cruciate ligament. 5) Two return cases were repaired in the chronic stage of more than one year after trauma. 6) The standing radiographs which were taken in full extension and 45 flexion on eight out of 13 patients, who had been followed up for more than 4 years showed intact joint space without narrowing.

4.A statistical analysis of dermatoses in west Gyeongsangnamdo area (1987-1990).
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1991;29(3):399-406
The authors reviewed 7,065 new outpatients who visited the dermatology clinic of Gyeongsang National University Hospital in Chinju from Jan. 1st, 1987 to Dee. 31st, 1990 to study the prevalence of common dermatoses in this region as compared to other regions in Korea, The results suggest that age, sex, monthly and yearly distribution patterns around Chinju are similar to those of other areas in Korea except for higher prevalences of vitiligo, psoriasis, alopecia, and for lower prevalences of scabies, insect bites, and syphilis.

5.Characteristics of Gastric Cancer in Korea - with an Emphasis on the Increase of the Early Gastric Cancer (EGC).
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2010;53(4):283-289
Gastric cancer is the most common malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in Korea. Age-adjusted annual incidence of gastric cancer per 100,000 persons is 62.8 for male and 25.7 for female. The proportion of early gastric cancer among surgically treated gastric cancer patients was 28.6% in 1995, 32.8% in 1999, and 47.4% in 2004. Screening upper endoscopy is quite commonly performed in Korea, and the proportion of early gastric cancer in the screened population is almost 75%. Gastric adenoma is considered to be a very important precancerous lesion. Gastric adenomas are actively treated in Korea, and at least 1/3 of the gastric adenomas with high grade dysplasia show cancerous focus when endoscopically resected. The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori is decreasing in Korean population, which may lead to the decreased incidence of gastric cancer in the near future. Paradigms of the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer are rapidly changing in Korea. Efforts to establish robust scientific data for new approaches are strongly required. The proportion of early gastric cancer among all gastric cancers has been and will be more increased in Korea.

8.A case report of orthodontic treatment of Angle's Class III malocclusion by rapid midpalatal expansion.

Korean Journal of Orthodontics 1977;7(1):31-39
The patient, 18-year-old girl, had a class III malocclusion with the lateral compression of the maxilla due to the premature loss of the canines, mild mandibular prognathism, and mouth breathing habit. The treatment plan consisted of 1) rapid maxillary expansion 2) a period of retention 3) extraction of the first mandibular premolars instead of surgical correction 4) completion of orthodontic treatment with multibanded system. The maxilla was separated in the midline by the application of orthopedic forces via a cemented rapid maxillary expansion device. After 18 months, She gained functional overbite-overjet relationship, good interdigitation of buccal segments, and facial harmony due to the retraction of lower anterior teeth.
