Actinomycosis is an indolent, suppurative infection caused by an anaerobic gram-positive organism (usually actinomyces israelii) which usually causes infection in the face, mediastitum, lung, and abdomen. Primary esophageal actinomycosis which is not related with pulmonary or mediastinal actinomycosis, is very rare, especially in immunocompetent host. A 58-year-old woman has been suffered from dysphagia, odynophagia, and chest pain after insertion of esophageal stent in esophageal acid stricture. She underwent a esophagectomy with esophagogastrostomy for above mentioned symptoms. Pathologic diagnosis was a esophageal actinomycosis.

Treatments of tibia shaft fracture are closed reduction followed by cast immobilization, external fixation, intramedullary nailing and internal fixation with plate and screws. Among these, intramedullary nailing is commonly used method today. The tibia nailing has high rate of union, but malunion, infection, the joint stiffness and anterior knee pain develops frequently. We reviewed the clinical and radiological result of anterior knee pain retrospectively after tibia nailing. The result were as follows: l. Age distribution of tibia shaft fracture was 17 to 76, and mean age was 40 male patients were 35 and female 13. 2. The open fractures were 17 and the closed fractures were 34. 3. The causes of' tibia shaft fracture were traffic accidents(30cases), fall down injuries(6 cases), slip down injuries(1 1 cases) and other injuries(4 cases) Among the these, 19 cases were cornbined with other fractures or neuri.isurgical injuries. 4. The incision methods were recorded as follows: parapatella tendon incision were 9 cases, patella splitting incision were 25 cases and unrecorded were 17cases. 5. According to the radiological analysis, the average nail plateau distance was 10.3mm and the extent of nail protrusion beyond the anterior cortex was -1.73mm. Among these, protrusion of proximal targeting screws were 8 cases. 6. Insertion of nail through the patella tendon was associated with a hipher incidence of knee pain compared to paratendon site of insertion. The extent of nail protrusion were related to anterior knee pain after tibia intramedullary nailing.

9.Chemonucleolysis Versus Percutaneous Automated Discectomy Using Nucleotome.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 1989;18(3):439-446
Authors reviewed the radiographs and medical records of 85 consecutive patients who underwent chemonucleolysis and percutaneous automated discectomy between May, 1986 and Feb. 1988 at the Dept. of Neurosurgery, Presbyterian Medical Center, Chon-ju, Korea. Among 85 consecutive patients, 48 patients underwent Chemonucleolysis and others underwent PAD using nucleotome. The results showed relatively low success rate of 60.3% in chemonucleolysis and 62.2% in PAD. However in PAD using nucleotome, the favorable selection criteria to define the higher successful rate(70-87.5%) included; 1) in young age group under 30. 2) in the group of no motor and sensory deficits. 3) in spine CT findings, which showed mild disc protrusion and no focal central disc bulging pattern. The better results will be obtained when the careful selection of patients is done and operated technique is more developed.

Computed body tomography has become useful in the diagnosis of pancreatic disease. It was found to be are liable, often specific, and noninvasive method for detecting pancreatitis and extra-pancreatic extension of the pathology. Of eight hundred and seventy-two cases studied for abdominal pathology with EMI-CT 5005 whole body scanner form Oct. 1977 to August 1980, 21 cases were confirmed to be pancreatitis clinically or operatively. The authors reviewed the CT findings of the above cases and the results were as follows; 1. Among twenty-one cases, the acute pancreatitis was 12 cases and the chronic pancreatitis was 9 cases. The sex ratio as 17 males to females. 2. In acute pancreatitis, diffuse enlargement of pancreas (11/12), focal enlargement (1/12), loss of peripancreatic fat plane (9/12), thickening of anterior of pararenal fascia (6/12), and smooth margin ofpancreas (5/12) were observed. 3. In chronic pancreatitis, parenchymal atrophy (7/9), normal size (2/9), loss of peripancreatic fat plane (3/9), thickening of anterior pararenal fascia (1/9), calcification (1/9), smooth margin (2/9), and serrated margin (6/9) were observed. 4. The complications were associated with 7 cases of acute pancreatitis and 1 case of chronic pancreatitis; pseudocyst (6), abscess (2), and fat necrosis (3), The sites of the pseudocyst were lesser sac (2), anterior pararenal space (2), posterior pararenal space (1), subhepatic region (1), greater omentum (1), and intrapancreatic region (2). All of them were associated with acute pancreatitis except one in chronic pancreatitis.
