The authors report a case of Von hippel Lindau disease in a 20 years old patients with presenting signs: diminution of visual acuity, intracramial hypertension with a left cerebollar syndrome and existence of an retinal angioma on the right side and papilla oedema on the left side. A scanning examination revealed a cystic tumor with a solid little mass. Angiography showed a capillary nodus coressponding to the mass lesion, with feeding arteries coming from the anterio superior cerebellar artery. Removal of the cyst and the tumor was successful. Pathological examination: Hemangi oblastoma. Negative ultrasound examination of the kidney, pancreas.

The private health contributed significantly to control the sexual transmitted diseases in Quang ninh. The private health network played an important role in the program of sexual transmitted disease prevention and control. This model should be expanded.

The value of formula Kt/v has been calculated by Daurgidas method in order to assess the effectiveness of chronic hemodialysis on 22 patients from Dialysis Center of Friendship hospital. These patients had mean Kt/v=1.33, with range from 0.92 to 1.67. Patients with Kt/v value (1.33 seem to have better recovery ability. Good effect of dialysis, with Kt/v(1.33 could be achieved by two-session-per-week hemodialysis, using high efficiency dialyzes and with session lasting at least 5 hours

Subjects: The patients who were 16 years of old or more and diagnosed with mild (stage I) and moderate (stage II) hypertension. Method: Open, compared and controlled study. The study group involved 40 patients who performed qi-exercises for 45 minutes per day on 30 days. Control group included 33 patients used fludex. It was found that qi-exercises, but not fludex, had increased the duration of wave-E. There was significant increase of total diastolic duration in study group, but not in control group. Qi-exercises did not change significantly the peak of atrial systole-induced left ventricular filling flow velocity, but fludex provided significant decrease. Left ventricular dystolic function of subjects in study groups did not change, comparing with baseline.

From June, 1996 to October, 1997, we have carried on research the treatment by method of Qui training – vitality maintenance in the mild-moderate level (the first-second period) of primary hypertensive patients, In comparison with fluid-used control group (n=24), we have some following comments. - About the effect of the method of Qui-training-vital maintenance: The method of Chi Gong-vitality preserving has effect in decreasing the systolic and diastolic blood pressure (p<0,01), the systolic blood pressure decreased more than diastolic blood pressure. In Doppler cardiac ultrasonograph, cardiac output decreased but without statistic sense. The functional parameters of let ventricle changed little, without statistic sense (p>0,05). - About the effect of fludex: Fludex decreased the systolic and diastolic blood pressure (p<0,001). In Doppler cardiac ultrasonograph, cardiac output decreased (p<0,05). The functional parameters of left ventricle decreased (p<0,05), EF,% D increased. The subject is being expanded continuously.

Objectives: Described on the knowledge of STDs of male and female patients at NIDV from 2002 to 2004 and described the knowledge on the STDs prevention in these groups. Methods: The cross-sectional study have implemented in NIDV from 2002 to 2004 by face to face interview, physical examination and laboratory tests of STD patients. Result and conclusions: Total 109 subjects were interviewed, male (56.9% men, 43% women). Most of STD patients had been heard on STDs (90.8%). Most of the patients think STDs are infection disease (87.2%); the main transmission ways are through sexual intercourses and injections (91.7%), but the knowledge in male were higher than female. The most popular media is TV, radio and newspapers (83.5%). The lower communication is in the school (15.6%), particularly from parent's patients (8.2%). The communication from friends has been mainly in male (56.5%). Most of STDs patients had been known the methods of STDs prevention are condom (57.8%) and monogamous (40.4%), but the knowledge in men were also higher than in women.

Survey on epidemiology and habits of seeking medical services of 109 patients with sexual transmitted diseases (STDs) (62 male and 4 female) at National Dematology Hospital shows that prevalence is higher among youth (20-39); state workers 33.9%; mostly in urban areas (68.8%); people had high school education and more (77.4%). Most women had married (60.9%); while most men have been single (89.2%). Male patients often contracted STDs due to having sexual activities with partners or sex workers (81.6%). Female patient contracted STDs mainly through husband (85%). Most STD patients seek for medical service within the next days (77.9%) or months. Those who came to hospitals/dermatology institute/dermatology centre was 53.2% and those who came to private clinics and chemistry for self treatment is 31.1%.

123 patients with pemphigus were studied in Vietnam Institute of Dermato-Venereology from 1995 to 2000. The prevalence of pemphigus accounts for 1.52% of total dermato - venereology disease. Pemphigus vulgaris was most common (68.10%), with the gender ratio of 2.3 female/1male. Average age was 42.36%  15.35%. The disease often developed in summer (64.26%). The lesions can occur either on the skin (55.28%) or on mucous membrane (44.72%) and flaccid blisters (86.99%). In diagnosis: Nicolsky sign(+) 56.41%, Tzanck cells 92.68%.

Background: Congenital heart disease is a malformation which the prevalence of 8 \ufffd?among alive infants. If it is not being treated on time, these malformations will develop to severe complication. The most common cause of cerebral abscess is congenital heart disease in infants. Objectives:This study aims to learn about some related factors and close consequence of cerebral abscess in congenital cardiac children. Subjects and method:A retrospective and prospective study was conducted on 37 patients with congenital heart disease were suffered from a cerebral abscess since January 2001 to 31 March 2007. Results:The boys were dominant with sex ratio: 1.85/1. Average age of acquired abscess was 6.8 years, 34/37 (91.9%) patients had curable congenital heart disease, including 33/37 (89.2%) diagnosed of right-left shunt. In comparison with patients whom over 2 years old and did not acquire abscess due to congenital cardiac shunt right-left type, there was no significant difference in hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocyte and saturation cutannee 13.5% among 37 patients of study were deaths, 26.5% had neurological sequelae and 8.1% were relapses. The average duration of hospitalization was longer (25.7 days) and the average costs were 4,317,000 Vietnam dong. Conclusion: Cerebral abscess was late complication of congenital heart disease and it was very necessary to treat completely the malformation of congenital heart disease in order to prevent of severe complication.

Background: Impaired synthesis of adrenal hormones because of steroid 21 - hydroxylase deficiency is one of the common inborn errors of metabolism. The disease is caused by mutations in CYP21 gene and inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.Objectives: This study aims to detect some mutations in CYP21 gene as well as study the relationship between genotype - phenotype and the carriers in patients' family. Subjects and method:43 patients with classic 21 - hydroxylase deficiency and 10 patients' parents were analysed CYP21 gene by using PCR techniques with specific primer pairs. The data was collected and analysed by EpiInfo 6.04 and other common medical statistic method. Results:Among 43 children patients of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, the rate between male and female was equavalent. The most frequent mutation causing steroid 21 - hydroxylase deficiency was deletion 8bp of exon 3. Then, was splicing site mutation of intron 2. The mutation of exon 1 (Pr030Leu) was also detected. About genotype - phenotype relationship, nearly all deletions 8bp (80%) and 12 splicing mutations (87.5%) were associated with salt - wasting phenotype. Conclusion: Parents were the carriers corresponding to the autosomal recessive rule.
