Malignant histiocytosis is a rare, usually fatal malignant neoplasm of reticuloendothelial systems. The disease is associated with fever, malaise, weight loss, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, pancytopenia, jaundice, and purpura. A 44-year-old female patient is described who had multiple, purple crusted nodules and plaques in the skin. In the laboratory study, pancytopenia was noted on the peripheral blood. In addition many atypical histiocytes were seen on the bone marrow aspiration. A lesional biopsy showed nodular infiltrations of atypical histiocytes in the dermis and some erythrophagocytosis was seen. Immunohistochemically, the histiocytes were weakly stained for lysozyme and α-l-antichymotrypsin, but were unstained for S-100 protein, cytokeratin, CEA(carcinoembryonic antigen), pan T/B marker CD30(ki-1), UCHL-1 LCA(leukocyte common antigen), and α-l-antitrypsin.

A total 400 patients underwent 676 treatments with E.D.A.P.-LTOI extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for urinary tract stones between February 25 and August 18, 1987. The results were obtained as follows; 1. sex ratio was about 3: 1, 292(73.0 %) in male and 108(27.0 %) in female patients. The average patient age was 43.9 years, with a range of 2 to 85 years. The fifth decade(30.5 %) was most followed by the forth decade (26.0 %) and sixth decade (20.7 %). 2. Treated stone locations were kidney in 286 (71.5 %);calyx in 187 (46.8%) and renal pelvis in 98 (24.5 %) and ureter in 144 (28.5 %); upper ureter in 71 (17.8%) and lower ureter 43(10.7 %). There were multiple renal stone in 83 (20.7 %), bilateral renal stone in 22(5.5 %), bilateral renal stone in 22 (5.5 %), bilateral ureteral stone in 3 (0.7 %) and unilateral renal and ureteral stones in 23 (5.8 %). The average stone size was 1.6 cm, with a range of 0.6 to 4.8 cm. 3. The average numbers of treatment were 1.4 sessions and the average treatment time was 13.7 minutes, with a range of 12 to 78 minutes. Of the patients, 81 (20.2 %) were complained severe pain but treatment interruption or anesthesia were not required. 4. The success rate of treatment-ended patients were 97.8 % in 0.6~1.0cm(137 cases), 89.2% in 1.0~2.0 cm (93 cases) and 89.2 % in 2.0~3.0 cm (37 cases). Therefore, the total average success rate was 93.6 %. 5. The method of pre-ESWL additional manipulation was used a ureteral stone `push up` in 12 (3.0 %). The post-ESWL additional measures were made in 10 (2.5%); ureteral manipulation in 8 cases and lithotomy in 2 cases. The causes of failed ESWL (21 cases) were stone components in 8, impacted stone in 8, incomplete stone localization in 4 and infundibular stricture in 1. 6. ESWL-complications were required admission and medical management in 18(4.5 %); colic in 12 (3.0 %), acute urinary retention in 2 (0.5 %) and subscapular hematoma in 1(0.3% ), Therefore, we confirmed that E.D.A.P.-LTOI ESWL is a safe and effective method for the treatment of urinary tract stones.

Sexual histories of 176 patients of the sexual dysfunctions, who visited Department of Urology of Chung-Ang University Hospital from May, l986 to Aug. l986, were reviewed and compared with findings of the diagnostic examinations. The results were as follows. 1. The erectile dysfunction was 92.6% and the ejaculatory dysfunction was 7.4%. Of the erectile dysfunctions, 58.2% was psychogenic and 4l.8% was organic. The most common etiology of the organic impotence was diabetes mellitus, followed by vascular, trauma, drug, neurogenic, and endocrinogenic in order. 2. Ages of 20 years was the most common, followed by ages of 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 years in order Unmarraged single patients were 42.6%. 3. The patients whose living conditions and anxiety had influence on their sexual life were 27.3%, and the patients whose sexual problems had influence on their daily life or married life were 84.3 %. But the patients who had ever visited psychiatrists for sexual problems were only 8.6%. 4. Sexual desire of the patients was low, as compared with their ages, in 37.3%. The patients who never had sexual desire from their sexual partners were 24.3%. And indifference of their sexual partners to the patients or lack of their sexual desire was l8.4% or 21.8%. 5. Out of the 20 cases who was considered as definitely psychogenic impotent patients on the base of the sexual histories, 5 were proved to be organic by the diagnostic examinations. And out of 11 cases of organic impotences, 5 cases were turned out to be pychogenic. In conclusion, the fact that the patients of the sexual dysfunction were much more common in younger ages than expected, implies lack of sexual education and sexual knowledge with insufficient sexual expecience make them patients of the psychogenic sexual dysfunction. And the effects of sexual dysfunction on their daily life are very serious in most patients, particularly in the younger ages.

The purposes of this study were to a) examine using status, b) measure the service quality attributes, c) analyze IPA and customer satisfaction, d) develop the LSM(Local Store Marketing) by location of K theme restaurant such as residential type(A), complex type(B) and downtown type(C). The questionnaires were handed out to 346 of 450(usage rate 76.9%). The statistical data analysis was completed using SPSS(ver 12.0) for descriptive analysis, X2, t-test, ANOVA, reliability analysis, factor analysis, multiple linear regression. From an analysis on service quality attributes, most importance of service quality attributes was more highly perceived than performance of those, except for 'attractive exterior', 'variety of kid's menu', 'convenient facilities for kid' and perceived importance and performance were also significantly different by location of branch restaurant. The attributes to be improved were 'convenience of restaurant's parking lot', 'food tast', 'speedy service' and 'service competency' as branch A(residential type) restaurant, 'convenience of the restaurant location' as branch B(complex type) restaurant and 'convenience of the restaurant location' and 'speedy service' as branch C(downtown type) through IPA analysis. The Overall customer satisfaction was 3.74 and service quality factors had significant effect on overall customer satisfaction. Location of restaurant, which gives a great effect on its operation and marketing, has a important correlation with success or failure of restaurant business enterprises. Therefore, marketing strategy by restaurant location should be developed.

Clinical studies were performed that the patient with angina pectoris having no responses to Ca++ antagonist and beta-blocker had been taken nicorandil 5mg bid daily with, beta-blokade and Ca++ antagonists for 3 weeks. The results after the use of nicorandil were as follows; 1) The clinical symptoms after the use of nicorandil were improved in 20(80%) of 25 patients, specially marked improved in 16 of 25 patients. There was no significant changes of BP and heart rate after the use of nicorandil. 2) The results of CBC, urinalysis, serum chemistry exa. and chest P-A were within normal range before and after the use of nicorandil. 3) After the use of nicorandil, ST segments depressed in 13 of 25 patients before use of nicorandil was elevated in 8(61.6%) of 13 cases after the use of that. QT interval, P-R interval and T wave in 25 cases were within normal range before and after the use of that. The M mode echocardiography showed the decreased movement of ventricular septum in 19 of 25 patients before the use of Nicorandil, and there was no changes after the use of that. 4) The adverse effects after the use of nicorandil to 25 patients were as follows: headache in 3(12%), nausea and vomiting 2(8%), palpitation 1(4%), upper abdominal discomfort 1(4%), and facial flushing 1(4%).

Granulosa cell tumors are uncommon neoplasm of ovary that are characterized by their long natural history and for their tendency to recur years after an aparrent clinical cure. Endometrial cancer occurs in association with these tumor in at least 5% of cases and 25%-50% are associated with endometrial hyperplasia. In this study, we present a case of granulosa cell tumor of right ovary with endometrial cancer after left oophrectomy.
