Fifteen cases of ventricular septal defect with aortic insufficiency were diagnosed radiographically andconfirmed after operation at Seoul National University Hospital in recent two and half years since 1979.Cineangiographies of ascending aorta and left ventricle were done in those cases and revealed some characteristicfindings. The resuls of the analysis are as follow; 1. Among the 15 cases, 14 cases were male and 1 case wasfemale. Age distribution was from 7 years to 23 years. 2. Those 15 cases were corresponded to 8% among total 193cases of ventricular septal defect, to 11% among total 135 cases of aortic insufficiency and especially to 48%among 48 cases of aortic in sufficiency below age of 20 years. 3. After operation, 11 cases were confirmed assubpulmonary type ventricular septal defect and 4 cases as subcristal type. The sizeds of the ventricular septaldefects were ranged between 0.6 and 2.5cm in diameter. 4. Regurgitation of contrast media was noticed in cineaortography of all cases, and the grades of regurgitation were II-III/IV in 13 cases. 5. Various types ofherniated aortic cusp through ventricular septal defect were seen. In the cases of subpulmonary ventricular septaldefect characteristic saccular aneurysm was found in 7 cases. Asymmetry or mild bulging of aortic sinus was foundin the cases of subcristal ventricular septal defect. 6. Infundibular stenosis was found in 3 cases with rightventriculography and those were caused by the herniated saccular aneurysm of aortic cusp. 7. It is essential forthe diagnosis of ventricular septal defect with aortic insufficiency to undertake biplane cineangiography ofascending aorta and left ventricle in long axial view and right ventriculograhy should be done in suspicion ofinfundibular pulmonary stenosis.

Primary pulmonary tuberculosis is one of the common pulmonary disease affecting children in Korea. Simple chest film is essential in diagnosis of primary pulmonary tuberculosis, but it is difficult to interpret the findings in some cases. Authors reviewed chest films of 162 cases of clinically confirmed primary pulmonary tuberculosis from April 1978 to June 1981 at Seoul National University Hospital. The results are as follows; 1. Lymph node enlargement, either hilar or mediastinal, was found in 82.7% and pulmonary parenchymal infiltration in74%. 2. Incidence of unilateral and bilateral hilar lymph node enlargement is about 50% (81cases) and 30% (49cases) respectively. Incidence of unilateral and bilateral mediastinal lymph node enlargement is about 21% (34cases) and 4.3% (7 cases), more common in right side. 3. Pulmonary parenchymal lesion is demonstrated in 74% (120cases). The pattern of primary focus is as follows in order; patchy infiltration 47% (76 cases) linear-streaky infiltration 15% (25 cases), lobar or segmental homogenous infiltration 9% (14 cases), nodular infiltration 4% (7cases). The primary focus of right lung is two times as common as that of left. 4. Calcification in primary focusis noted in about 27% in pulmonary parenchyma and 49% in hilum. 5. Plerual effusion is identified in 10%, but pleural effusion without pulmonary parenchymal lesion or lymph node enlargement is noted in only 2% (3 cases).

Double-outlet right ventricle is defined as follows: both great arteries arise completely or nearly completelyfrom the right ventricle; neither semilunar valve is in fibrous continuity with either atrioventricular valve; andusually a ventricular septal defect is present and the only outlet from the left ventricle. A total of 44 cases ofdouble-outlet right ventricle is analyzed, in which cineangiocardiographies were done at the Department ofRadiology, Seoul National University Hospital in recent 4 year and 6 months, with specific reference to thesegmental combinations, the height of conus the relationship of great arteries, the location of ventricular septaldefects, and associated anomalies. The resuslts were as follows; 1. Among 44 cases, 36 cases had normal cardiacposition, 4 cases had dextrocardia with situs inversus, 2 cases had dextrocardia with situs solitus, 1 case hadlevocardia with situs inversus, and another 1 case had mesocardia with situs ambiguus. 2. Segmental sets were[S.D.D] in 36 cases, [I.L.L] in 3 cases, [I.D.D] in 2 cases, [S.D.L], [S.L.L] and [A,D,D] in 1 case respectively.3. All cases had bilateral conus. Aortic valve rings were same level as pulmonary valve rings in 25 cases, lowerthan pulmonary valve rings in 17 cases in which 15 cases were type A., and higher than pulmonary valve rings in 2cases. 4. The relation of the great arteries were normal in 15 cases, side-by side in 13 cases, dextromalpositionin 13 cases, and levomal position in 3 cases. 5, The position of the ventricular septal defects with respect tothe origins of the great arteries is subaortic (type A & type B) in 23 cases, subpulmonary (type C) in 13 cases,double committed (type D) in 3 cases, and uncommitted (type E) in 5 cases. 6. Associated cardiac malformations arepulmonary stenosis in 24 which had all cases of type A and type E, aortic stenosis in 6 which were only in type C,left SVC in 6, abnormality of atrioventricular valve in 5, single coronary artery in 4, interrupted IVC in 1,obstructive VSD in 2, ASD in 4, PDA in 4, right aortic arch with levocardia in 5, and ectopic spleen withmesocardia in 1 case. 7. Biplane cinecardioangiogram must be performed in both ventricles to define the VSD andits relationship to the great arteries, and, if necessary, should also be performed in the aorta to rule outcoarctation and coronary artery abnormalities, and in the pulmonary artery to visiualize pulmonary venous returnand mitral valve. Angiography is of crucial importance in differentiating double-outlet right ventricle fromtetralogy of Fallot and complete transposition of the great arteries.

9 cases of criss-cross heart anomaly, diagnosed by angiography from April, 1979 to Feb. 1985 at Seoul National University Hospital were reviewed. The results were as follows: 1. Of 9 cases, 6 cases were male and 3 cases werefemale and the age ranged from 2 months to 16 years of age. 2. Of 9 cases, 7 cases were concordant (D-loop) and 2cases were discordant (L-loop). segmental approaches are 2 cases of SDD(TGV) and each one case of SLD(TGV),SDD(DORV), SDL(DORV), SDD(DOLV), SLL(corrected TGV), and normal one. 3. Associated anomalies are small sized rightventricle (7 cases), especially inflow tract and sinus portion, pulmonary outflow tract obstruction(5 cases),VSD(9 cases), ASD( 7 cases), PDA(2 cases) and visceroatrial situs solitus was observed in all 9 cases but 1dextrocardia.

Lentigo maligna melanoma(LMM) is the least common type of melanoma. LMM is almost exclusively located on sun-exposed skin of the head and neck. We describe a case of lentigo maligna melanoma evolved from lentigo maligna in 82-year-old man. Five years ago, the patient developed a brownish pigmented lesion on the left cheek. The lesion progressed slowly, and several months ago, a black pigmented patch was developed in the periphery of the brownish pigmented patch. Histopathologic examination of the lesions revealed findings consistent with lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma.

Radiologic findings of the 29 cases of radiation pneumonitis and fibrosis diagnosed by chest radiography atSeoul National University Hospital were evaluated and compared with clinical symptoms according to the passage oftime after radiation therapy. The resuls were as follows; 1. The first radiographic signs of radiation pneumonitisand fibrosis were observed 7.6 weeks and 19.3 weeks after radiation therapy respectively. Especially in 8 cases ofsmall cell ca., they were found 5.6 weeks and 10.4 weeks, appearing slinghtly earlier than those of 12 cases ofsquamous cell ca. of lung. 2. The appearing time and severity of the radiographic changes of radiation pneumonitisand fibrosis had no specific relationship with field size, tumor dose or time-dose-fractionation factors of thetreatment. 3. The most constant and characteristic radiological finding of radiation pneumonitis was the sharp andstraight margin of the lesion, which was not that of normal anatomical structures of the lung. Other findings werediffuse haziness, indistinct normal pulmonary markings, alveolar and nodular densities, air-bronchograms andindistinctness of heart border. In radiation fibrosis stage, the lesion characteristic and constant finding. Otherfindings were indistinctness of heart border, diaphragmatic tenting and compensatory emphysema.

Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1995;33(6):875-881
PURPOSE: To analyze CT and follow-up chest radiographic findings in patients with necrotizing pneumonia and to evaluate clinical significance of the extent of necrosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed medical records and retrospectively analysed CT scans and follow-up chest radiographs of 22 patients with necrotizing pneumonia, confirmed by biopsy(n=7) and culture (n=15). Inclusion criteria for necrotizing pneumonia was necrotic low attenuation, with or without cavitation on postcontrast enhanced CT scan. The study group included 15 men and seven women, aged 11-66 years (average: 47years). RESULTS: The pathogens of necrotizing pneumonia were Klebsiella spp(n=7), Enterobacter spp(n=5), Actinomyces spp(n=4), Pseudomonas spp(n=4), Nocardia spp(n=4), and others(n=5). Average duration of pneumonia was 4.1 months. On CT scan, pneumonic consolidations were well-marginated in 14 patients and there were cavities on initial CT scan in 16 cases. Margins of the necrotic portion on CT scan were well-demarcated in majority of the patients(16/22). Low attenuation areas on initial CT scan resulted in cavitation, fibrosis and volume loss as shown on follow-up chest radiographs. The larger the necrotic areas on CT, the more the volume loss was. CONCLUSION: CT findings of necrotizing pneumonia were well-marginated air-space consolidation with low attenuation area, with or without cavity. The extent of necrotic area was closely related with the degree of fibrotic change later on. CT is important tool for diagnosis and prediction of parenchymal damage in necrotizing pneumonia.

10.A Study of the Relationship between the Child-rearing Attitudes and the Maternal Role Strain in Mothers with Infants.
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2004;34(2):235-242
PURPOSE: The main purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between the child rearing attitudes and the maternal role strain of mother with infants. METHOD: This study is designed as a descriptive research study and the data was collected from 82 mothers and infants by means of an interview and questionnaire in a period from July 2002 to December 2002, when they came to screen their infant's growth and developmental state at a public health center. RESULT: The results of this study were as follows : There was a significant positive correlation between the child rearing attitudes and maternal role strain(r.= .53, p= .000). There was a significant difference between the father's employment state and child rearing attitude of mothers(t.=5.22, p<.000). There was a significant difference between male infant and female infants in maternal role strain(t.=3.8, p=0.04). CONCLUSION: When the child rearing attitude was positive, the subject's maternal role strain was high. Also further research is needed on social support or other factors in the subjects in child-rearing attitudes and maternal role strain.
