3.Radiologic analysis of total colonic aganglionosis
Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1985;21(4):623-628
Radiologic findings of Total colonic Aganglionosis(T.C.A.) were analized in 15 patients with the results asfollows; 1. Male to female ratio was 8:7. 2. There were six cases of small calibered colon, seven cases of normalcolon and two cases of megacolon. 3. Free reflux of barium into the small bowel was observed in seven cases out ofeight in which retrograde filling was tried. 3. Delayed films (24 hrs or more) were available in eight cases andmost of the barium remaned in bowel in six cases. 5. There were abnormal colonic contractions in three cases,decreased redundancy in five and five cases of irregular, hypertrophic mucosal wall suggesting enterocolitis. 6.Part of ileum were also aganglionic in five cases. There seems to be no pathognomonic barium enema findings inT.C.A. But combination of these findings may suggest the possibility of T.C.A. T.C.A. should be considered indifferential diagnosis of bowel obstruction in infants. Barium enema should be complete and delayed films alwaysbe obtained.

5.Malignant Myoepithelioma Arising in a Recurrent Pleomorphic Adenoma: A case report.
Korean Journal of Pathology 1999;33(7):517-520
Malignant myoepithelioma is a rare neoplasm of salivary gland which may either arise de novo or develop in a pre-existing pleomorphic adenoma. The malignant myoepithelioma occurs in 0.45% of major salivary gland tumors. Malignant myoepitheliomas arising in the pleomorphic adenoma number less than 20 in English literature and 1 in Korea. We describe a case of malignant myoepithelioma arising in a recurrent pleomorphic adenoma of the left parotid gland of a 61-year-old man. The tumor was ill-defined and composed of polygonal or plasmacytoid myoepithelial cells. Infiltration to surrounding tissue, hemorrhage, necrosis, increased mitotic activity and vascular tumor emboli indicated its malignant nature. There were several satellite nodules with histologic features of typical pleomorphic adenoma. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were reactive for S-100 protein, AE1/AE3, vimentin, smooth muscle actin and glial fibrillary acid protein.

Wernickes encephalopathy is an illness characterized by mental disturbance, paralysis of eye movements and ataxia of gait. The specific factor for most, if not all, of these symptoms is a deficiency of thiamine. Wemicke's encephalopathy mostly occurs in developing countries when the patient is in a state such as nutritionally deprived state, anorexia nervosa, stomach cancer, long duration of parenteral nutrition. Wernickes encephalopathy was recognized as a complication of hyperemesis of pregnancy in 1914. Unfortunately, cases continue to occur. We present here a case of Wernickes encephalopathy in a 36-year-old pregnant woman. We discuss the clinical picture, histopathology, radiology, therapeutic management and prognosis with review of the literature.

Journal of the Korean Society of Neonatology 1998;5(1):55-60
PURPOSE: We report clinical charateristics of percutaneous central venous catheteriza- tion(PCVC) that is performed commonly as a vascular access procedure in the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU) including comparision between the success rate and com- plication rate of groups performed by a doctor and by nurses who were accustomed to the IV procedure. METHODS: We evaluated a total of 158 PCVC cases performed in the NICU of Soonchunhyang Chunan hospital over 2 years 5 rnonths from May, 1995 to September, 1997. The 24 cases of PCVC were performed by doctors and 134 cases of this proce- dures were performed by well trained nurses. We have compared success rates, clinical characteristics, insertion sites, indwelling time, causes of removal of the catheters, and associated complication of both doctor performed group (D) and nurse performed group (N) retrospectively. RESULTS: The mean gestational age, birth weight, weight at the time of insertion were significantly lower in the doctor performed group than in the nurse group(P<0.001). There were significant differences in postnatal age and mean duration per catheter in both groups. The overall success rate of insertions was 89.9%(142/158), the success rate of doctor performed group was 54.2%(13/24) and nurse group was 96.3%(129/134) and there was significant difference(P<0.001). In the doctor performed group, 100% were axillary however in the nurse group 43.4% were axillary, 38.8% were antecubital, 9.4% were temporal, and 5.4% were hand. The most common cause of the removal of the catheter was elective in both groups but there was also substantial spontaneous removal by the patients and mechanical complication. Cultures of catheter tips were done after removal in 110 cases, among then were positive in 36 cases(33.6%), the most common causes were Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. CONCLUSION: In this report, the authors emphasize that percutanous central venous catheterization performed by well trained nurses has a higher success rates than the doctor performed group and can be considered safe. We would also like to emphasize that more attention should be paid to the maintanace of PCVC.
