PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare mammography and breast sonography in detection of breast cancer and to suggest reasonable guideline of breast imaging in breast cancer patients under 30 years of age in whom breast cancer shows different clinicopathologic characteristics compared with breast cancer in older women. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A. uthors reviewed medical records of 27 patients under 30 years of age with pathologically-proven breast cancer. Age, family history, physical examination findings, indications for breast s0nography were reviewed. Cases in whom breast cancer lesion is detectable and cases in whom not detectable using mammography or breast sonography were reviewed. And then, authors evaluated the usefulness of each method and reasons for nonvisualization of lesion on mammography. RESULTS: Among 27 patients, 25 patients had palpable breast mass as indication of mammography and breast sonography. Cancer lesions were detectable in 16 of 25 patients (64%) on mammography and 24 of 25 patients (96%) on breast ultrasonography. Reasons for nonvisualization of cancer lesions on mammography were dense breast with nodular parenchyma pattern and minimal breast change of ductal carcinoma in situ. CONCLUSION: In breast cancer patients under 30 years of age who have palpable breast mass as a initiaJ, and main clinical problem, breast ultrasonography is superior to mammography in detecting and diagnosing breast cancer. We suggest that guidelines can avoid unnecessary mammography in these patients.

We reviewed the records of thirty-four patients who had been managed with the Ilizarov technique for the comminuted intra- and extra-articular fractures and nonunion of the long bones with or with-out bone defect. The goal of this study is to analysis the clinical complications of the Ilizarov technique, and to find out the methods solving them. 1. This study comprises 34 patients who were treated by Ilizarov technique at the Chonbuk National University Hospital from March, 1992 to June, 1993. 2. Among 34 cases, 22 were comminuted intra- and extra-articular fractures, and 12 were nonunion of the long bones. 3. The complications were divided intd problem, obstacle and complication; problem in 16 cases, obstacle in 11 cases and complication in 6 cases. 4. We conclude that the Ilizarov technique is a useful method in management of the severe commi- nuted fractures and the nonunion of the long bones, but we have to consider the complication sincerely and endeavor to reduce them.

Surgical resection is the only option for the treatment of carotid body tumor. The tumor is characterized by its hypervascularity and adherence to the carotid artery. Neurovascular injuries have been a well known surgical complication during the procedure. We experienced a case of carotid artery injury during the resection of carotid body tumor and which was reconstructed with interposition graft using autogenous vein. Vascular injury as a complication during the resection of carotid body tumor was reviewed.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In acute myocardial ischemia, the conduction velocity of action potential is decreased by several electrophysiological and physical factors. The ventricular activation time(VAT) is a time duration of electrical impulse propagating from endocardium to epicardium. The goal of this study is to determine whether the reduction in conduction velocity in acute myocardial ischemia can lead a change in VAT. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Thirty patient, 18 males and 12 females, who had received percutaneous balloon coronary angioplasty(PTCA) were enrolled. The mean age was 59 years old. A twelve lead surface electrocardiogram(ECG) were obtained before, during, 1 minute, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes after the PTCA as digitized data by using Cardiolab EP 4.1 program. The magnitude of the QRS wave was amplified 3 to 4 folds and the speed was increased to 200mm/sec in order to get the VAT easily and accurately. The data was the mean of three consecutive VATs. The number of vessel treated with PTCA included left anterior descending artery(12), left circumflex artery(9), and right coronary artery(9). Among twelve chronic stable angina, sixteen unstable angina, and two acute myocardial infarction patients, twenty six had single and four had two vessel diseases. RESULTS: The significant increase in VAT during PTCA compared to that before PTCA was observed in eight of 12 leads. In addition, the significant decrease in VAT of 1, 5, and 10 minutes after PTCA compared to that during PTCA were noted. Furthermore, 10 minutes after PTCA, VAT decreased significantly compared to that before PTCA. The leads did not show a significant change of VAT depending on target vessels. The ECG of 16 patients showed changes of the ST segment during PTCA. The changes of VAT were not related to the ST segment change. CONCLUSION: The conduction delay from endocardium to epicardium in acute myocardial ischemia was presented as a prolongation of VAT in surface ECG. In addition, the conduction delay was recovered within 5 minutes after relief of ischemia. Therefore, the changes of VAT can possibly be used as one of the noninvasive parameters of myocardial ischemia.
