There have been very rare studies or articles about the shreds of urine. The author had observed microscopically the shreds of urine which were taken from the 624 healthy adult Korean males and obtained the following interesting results: 1) The shreds of urine, in the first urine taken early in the morning, were found in 195 cases (31.3%) among the 624 symptomless adult males. 2) In the above 195 cases, the shreds of urine were found in 45 cases (68.2%) among the 66 cases with a history of previous urethritis. And the shreds of urine were found in 150 cases (26.9%) in 558 cases without a history of previous urethritis. 3) As the result of microscopic examination about the shreds of urine in 624 cases, we found out 57 cases (9.1%) with 5~10 leukocytes/H.P.F. These 57 cases consist of 24 cases (36.4%) in 66 cases with a history of previous urethritis and 33 cases (5.9%) in 558 cases without a history of urethritis.

We retrospectively analyzed 125 patients of salivary gland tumor operated at Asan medical center from 1989 to 1996. The most commonly involved gland was parotid(69.6%) and the most frequent tumor was pleomorphic adenoma(56%). The proportion of the malignancy was 25.8% in parotid, 17.6% in submandibular gland, respectively. Facial palsy was developed postoperatively in 29 patients, however, seven patients were lost of follow up because five were died of disease and two were transferred to other hospitals. Persistent facial palsy were seven:four in the benign tumor, three in the malignant tumor. Transient facial palsy were 15:12 in the benign tumor, three in the malignant tumor. In the transient facial palsy, 10 patients were recovered within three months. Among 32 malignant tumor, the number of recurrence or distant metastasis were 12:four were distant metastasis alone, two were metastasis to the cervical lymph node, four were local recurrence alone and two were local recurrence with distant metastasis. The highest recurrence of the tumor was found in high grade-mucoepidermoid carcinoma(83.3%). Overall tumor recurrences were significantly related to positive cervical lymph node metastasis or positive resection margin:recurrence rate of the positive lymph node metastasis was 44.4%(four of nine) and the recurrence rate of positive resection margin was 50%(seven of 14).
