4.The Psychiatric Problem of Male infertility Patients by Symptom Check List-90 (SCL-90).
Korean Journal of Fertility and Sterility 1998;25(3):349-353
It has been well known that infertile women experience not only emotional disturbance but also stress. But there is no concern about male infertility patients. So phychiat.ic symptoms were studied with SCL-90 (Symptom Check List-90) in 30 infertile men who was operated testicular sperm extraction (TESE) in Samsung Cheil Hospital and in age matched 31 fertile men from Jan. 1998 to Aug. 1998. In 5 symptom dimensions (Obcessive-Compulsive, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Depression, Phobic anxiety, Psychoticisim) scores. The Infertile group scored significantly higher than the control group. The result revealed that infertile men also experienced substantially more psychiatric symptoms than fertile men. Considering this results, psychiatric evaluation and tender care by infertility specialist are necessary for infertile men during and after evaluation and treatment.

5.The Role of Peroneus Longus Insertion on First Metatarsal Against metatarsus varus force

The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1996;31(3):584-589
It is likely that the peroneus longus tendon acts as a structure resisting the varus force upon the first column of the foot. Our study was designed to examine the possibility that absence of the peroneus longus insertion into the first metatarsal and first cuneiform will destabilize the first metatarsal. The fresh frozen cadaveric specimens of the lower leg were obtained. There were six right feet. The specimens appeared normal visually and roentgenographically. The tibial remnant was rodded by an intramedullary rod and the sprcimen was positioned in a specially designed rig so that standing position of the foot was simulated. The tibia was then loaded with twenty pounds. To obtain reproducible radiographic landmarks radioopaque beads were implanted underneath the level of the cortex through small drill holes in the following location : First metatarsal (one bead in the head, another bead in the base). The second metatarsal (again one bead in the head, on e bean in the base). To simulate the contraction of the peroneus longus muscle a suture was placed into the proximal end of the tendon, brought through two pulleys and loaded with a five pound weight. To create a varus force on the first metatarsal a stab incision was made over the base of the first metatarsal at its medial aspect and a suture was passed through the base of the first metatarsal. The suture was guided over a pulley and loaded with ten pounds. The second metatarsal head was fixed to the bottom of the rig with a smooth Steinmann pin. At this point an AP roentgenogram was taken of the footto assure proper positioning of the foot. Thereafter, the soft tissue between the first and second toe were cut sequentially : (1) Transection of the skin of the first web space both dorsally and plantarly. (2) Transection of the adductor hallucis tendon and the intermetatarsal ligament. (3) Transection of the peroneus longus tendon at its insertion. Each step in the transaction of the soft tissues was followed by another X-ray examination. In each roentgenogram the proximal and distal beads in the first and second metatarsal were connected by a line and the angles between those lines were measured. The results were statistically analyzed with the Friedman Chi square test between each step of the ten feet. Following the first and second step angular changes are not significant. Following the final step, adding release of the tendon insertion of the peroneus longus, the angle changes from 15.95 to 20.55 degrees (difference 4.60 degrees) and this is significant (p < 0.05).

We present a case of mycosis fungoides of an 52-year-old woman who showed multiple pruritic erythematous papules, plaques with ulcers on the trunk, extremities and face. Her skin biopsy specimens were studied irnmunohistochemically with, monoclonal antibodies against T cells(80%, Leu-4, OKT11), T-cell subsets (60% Leu-3a, OKT4a, 40% OKT8) and Langerhans cell(OKT6). We think that this case should be considered in the differential diagnosis of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The proliferating cells were negative for anti-Tac.

8.Neurolytic Blockade of the Ganglion Impar for Relief of Cancer-Related Perianal Pain: A case report.

The perineum refers to the anatomical area immediately below the pelvis, and is comprised of diverse anatomic and somatic innervation. Although various interventions have been proposed for the management of intractable cancer-related perineal pain, their efficacy are limited because the target of nerve blocks has focused on somatic rather than sympathetic components. Recently, blockade of the ganglion impar has been introduced as an alternative means of managing intractable neoplastic perineal pain of sympathetic origin. We successfully treated a patient who had suffered from cancer-related intractable perineal pain with ganglion impar block.
