1.Treatment of Congenital Dislocation of the Knee by Conservative Management.
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1998;33(4):1092-1097
We reviewed twelve cases of congenital dislocation of the knee(CDK) which treated at Keimyung University from January 1992 to January 1997. All case were type II dislocation according to classification suggested by Ferris and reduced with minimal treatment. Dislocation were reduced within 4 days in minimum after treatment and 3 weeks in maximum. The period of follow up ranged from 6 months to 5 years. Clinical results were good. Early diagnosis followed by conservative treatment is important and enough to treatment of the type II congenital dislocation of the knee.

Recently, there were many cases which was associated with bone defect in the limb and skin defect. We had performed vascularized osteocutaneous fibular transfer with microsurgical technique and experienced early bone union and simutsneous external wound healing. So we, authers, reviewed 12 cases of vascularized osteocutaneous fibular transfer which were performed to the extensive bone defect of the tibia and associated soft tissue injury. And the following remarkable results were obtained. 1. With the uncontrolled bone infection, the vascularized osteocutaneous fibular transfer was able to be performed and there was no non-union. 2. During the follow up period, the grafted fibula had been hypertrophied. 3. In the cases which the fibula were grafted to the defect after the segmental and partial excision of the tibia, in general, the partial weight bearing was able to be started from 3 months to 5 months after the operation, In the cases with segmental and complete excision of the tibia, the partial weight bearing was able to be started from 5 months to 7 month after the operation. 4. In adult, free fibula can be obtained and grafted as 20cm as long and the fibula was a good donor for extensive long bone defect as a compact bone; the skin flap with fibula can be obtained and grafted as 17 × 9cm as large in our experience. 5. In the vascularized osteocutaneous fibula transfer, the skin flap could be confirmed wheather the vascular anastomosis is patent or not as a monitor.

Lymphomatoid papulosis, first described by Macaulay in 1558 is a chronic disease characterized by the recurrent self-healing papulonecrotic or nodular skin lision, showing histological features of malignant lymphoma. The clinical course is variable, with rogression to disseminated malignant lymphoma in up to 10-20% of patients. Ki-1 appears to the a representative marker for large cells ir lymphomatoid papulosis and these cells can be detected in l-1 lymphorna, Hodgkins diseasen other disorders with aetivated T cells. However, positive Ki-1 staining is useful for supporting a diagnosis of lymphomatoid papulosis, under the appropriate clinical and histopathologic findings. We report a case of positive lymphomatoid papulosis which is characterized by the typical findings of clinical, histojpathological and immunohistochemica sizdies.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to survey hygiene behavior of healthcare personnel according to the Hygiene Inventory 23 (HI23) and to use the results in education and research for promoting hygiene behaviors. METHODS: We sampled a total of 400 people with 50 from each job category. The sample was obtained through convenient sampling among 8,200 employees working at a tertiary-care hospital with 2,600 beds in Seoul. The HI23 consisted of 5 subscales and 8 questions on general hygiene, 3 on household hygiene, 3 on food-related hygiene, 5 on hand hygiene methods, and 4 on personal hygiene, resulting in a total of 23 questions. The researcher also added 14 questions on the general characteristics of the subjects. The self-administered questionnaires were distributed on October 2009 and analyzed blindly. RESULTS: The average total score for hygiene behavior was 3.04+/-0.44 (maximum of 4). In the subcategory of hygiene behavior, the mean score was 3.20+/-4.24 for general hygiene, 3.07+/-0.68 for household hygiene, 3.07+/-0.68 for food-related hygiene, 2.91+/-0.69 for hand hygiene methods, and 2.97+/-0.48 for personal hygiene. When factors affecting the level of hygiene behavior were identified through multivariate regression analysis, independent factors were found to be gender (female), job category (food-related job), experience in hand hygiene education, and experience in teaching hand hygiene or general hygiene. CONCLUSION: Programs and education adapted to the characteristics of each job category in hospitals are needed to promote hygiene behaviors such as general hygiene, hand hygiene methods, household hygiene, food-related hygiene, and personal hygiene.

Congenital hypoprothrombinemia is a rare congenital coagulation defect. The clinical signs are manifestation of generalized tendency such as; mucosal bleeding, hypermenorrhea and post tooth extraction hemorrage. It is associated with prolongation of PT and PTT with normal thrombin time and decreased serum prothrombin level. A case with congenital hypoprothrombinemia was experienced by the authors. A 36 days old male baby was admitted with palor skin and vomiting started one day before admission. Right side brain parenchymal hemorrhage and left shift of lateral ventricle were on brain CT scan. Prologation of prothrombin time and partial prothrombin time with decreased serum prothrombin level were resulted. Serum factor I, V, VII, VIII, IX and X were within normal level. We report a case congenital hypoprothrombinemia with a brief review of relaed literatures.
