Urethral duplication is rare congenital anomaly. It may be complete or partial, We report a case of PPNG urethritis which limited to the accessory urethra and treated with kanamycin (2. 0gm, im), ampicillin(3. 5gm, po) and probenecid(l pgm, po).

The treatment of gonorrhea caused by beta-strains of N. gonorrhoeae is quite different from that of non-beta-strains, but it is not always possible in general practice to take cultures of gonococci to detect p-lactamase producing organisms. Therefore treatment regimens commonly used for gonorrhoea should be effective against both PPNG non-PPNG strains. Eighty-seven male uncomplicated gonorrheal patients were treated with intramuscular kanarnycin 2gm in combilnation with talampicillin 2. 5 gm plus probenecid 1grn orally. Sixty-seven patients were followed up. All patients recovered. Ten patients among sixty-seven patients had PPNG. A regimen of intramuscular kanamycin 2 gm, talampicillin 2. 5 gm plus probenecid 1 0 gm orally seems to be one of the most cost effective regimens in Korea.

A retrospective study of 274 patients who presented with constipation was done. The following results were obtained by recording colonic transit time. The male to female ratio was 72 : 197, and most patients were in their third and fifth decade, each age group accounting for 21% of total number. Associated symptoms were anal discomfort(33%), abdominal discomfort (25%), hematochezia (23%), reduced stool caliber (11%), and tenesmus (8%). As a result, 223 patients had normal transit time and 51 patients had abnormal transit time. Eighty-six patients with normal transit time and 51 patients with abnormal transit time underwent barium enema or colonoscopic examination. Abnormal lesions such as polyps and diverticulums were found in 10 patients with normal transit time and 7 patients with abnormal transit time. Therefore barium enema and colonoscopic examination in the patients with abnormal transit time were meaningful (P=0.024). Eighteen out of 25 patients with normal transit time and 8 (67%) of 12 patients with abnormal transit time showed abnormal defecogram results. The rectocele was the most frequent cause of abnormality in defecogram. Abnormal anal manometry results were obtained in 5 (22%) of 23 patients with normal transit time and 3 (50%) of 6 patients with abnormal transit time. Three types were classified in the patients with abnormal transit time. With type II patients, anal manometry findings were normal and 2 patients showed abnormal results in defecogram. With type III patients, 5 (43%) of 12 patients showed abnormal results in defecogram and 3 (50%) of 6 patients had abnormal anal manometry findings. Conclusively, if abnormal transit time is found in the patients with chronic consipation, further evaluations such as barium enema or colonoscopic examination are necessary. And even in the patients without any abnormality in transit time, selected performance of defecogram and anal manometry depending on clinical symptoms are preferable.

We reoport a case of multiple basal cell carcinoma in a 51-year-old male who have taken a herb medication for right hemiplegia during 30 years. The patient had a 15-year history of the black colored, ulcerated nodules on left forehead and erythematous, protruded masses on back. Also, he had a 6-year history of black colored, ulcerated nodules on right temporal area of scalp and brownish, flat plaques on anterior chest, Biopsy specimens from lesions revealed typical histopathologic findings of the basal cell carcinoma. Wide excision with graft was done. One year later, he was expired due to lung carcinoma.

Background:
The prognostic consequences of transient hemodynamic deterioration due to cardiac displacement, which is most severe during left circumflex artery (LCX) grafting in off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB) are unknown. This study aimed to investigate the association between mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) < 60% during LCX grafting and the occurrence of composite of morbidity endpoints.
Methods:
Data of patients who underwent elective OPCAB between January 2010 and December 2019 were reviewed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to detect risk factors for the composite of morbidity endpoints, defined as 30-day or in-hospital mortality, postoperative myocardial infarction, prolonged mechanical ventilation > 24 h, cerebrovascular accident, and acute kidney injury.
Results:
Among 1,071 patients, the composite of morbidity endpoints occurred in 303 (28%) patients. SvO2 < 60% during LCX grafting was significantly associated with the composite of morbidity (OR: 2.72, 95% CI [1.60, 4.61], P < 0.001) along with advanced age, chronic kidney disease, ratio of early mitral inflow velocity to mitral annular early diastolic velocity, and EuroSCORE II. Other major hemodynamic variables including the cardiac index were not associated with the outcome. Additional regression analysis revealed pre-operative anemia as a predictor of SvO2 < 60% during LCX grafting (OR: 2.09, 95% CI [1.33, 3.29], P = 0.001).
Conclusions
A decrease in SvO2 < 60%, albeit confined to the period of cardiac displacement, was associated with a 2.7-fold increased risk of detrimental outcomes after OPCAB, implying the prognostic importance of this transient deterioration in oxygen supply-demand balance.

A 29-year-old male patient was admitted due to subacute onset of right chest pain. He had no history of trauma, chest surgery or other medical disease. Chest roentgenogram showed an expansile, radiolucent lesion on the posterior segment of right seventh rib. Computed tomogram of the chest also showed lytic expansile mass with septation. He took an en-bloc resection of the involved rib. Pathologically there were multiple cystic spaces, filled with blood and collagenofibrous tissue proliferation and locally areas of new bone formation and giant cells of osteoclastic type, which was compatible with aneurysmal bone cyst. We report a case of aneurysmal bone cyst of the rib with a brief review of literature.

"To evaluate whether different qualifications of a cytologic diagnosis of atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) predict a greater or lesser likelihood of tissue diagnosis of uterine cervix, we compared different cytologic qualifications of ASCUS with the tissue diagnosis. One hundred twenty-two con- secutive Papanicolaou smears showing ASCUS in women who had undergone cervical biopsy within nearest 30 days were collected. The 122 smears were qualified as ""favor reactive (25%), favor low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) (24%), favor squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL) (16%), favor high grade squa- mous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) (16%), and not otherwise specified (19%). Squamous intraepithelial or invasive lesion was pathologically confirmed by cervical biopsy in 13% of the favor reactive, 27% in favor LSIL, 70% in ""favor SIL, 75% in favor HSIL, and 35% in not otherwise specified smears. There were significant associations between the favor reactive smear and the benign biopsy finding and between the favor SIL smear and the biopsy showing a squamous intraepithelial or more severe lesion. Nevertheless, rnost of favor LSIL smears exhibit reactive process in tissue biopsy. Conclusively, qualified ASCUS stratifies women into different risk groups for SIL. The cytopathologist should make the cytologic diagnosis of ASCUS, favor LSIL circumspectly."
