The most commonly used graft source for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is the autogenous bone- patellar tendon-bone graft unit. Despite a good success record, intraoperative technical errors and postoperative complications have been known. Author analyzed intraoperative technical errors and postoperative complications, in 44 patients who were treated at the department of orthopaedic surgery, chosun university hospital from Jan. 1994 to Jun. 1996. The most common intraoperative technical errors was screw graft divergency in 5 cases. Other intraoperative technical errors were too anteriorly location of femoral tunnel in 1 case, too anteriorly location of tibial k femora) tunne.l both in 1 case, graft tunnel mismatching in 1 case, graft pullout in 1 case and partial destruction of posterior cortex of femoral tunnel in 1 case, fracture of the bone plug in 1 case. The most common postoperative complication was patellar tendinitis in 20 cases (45.5%). Other postoperative complications were anterior knee pain in 14 case. (31.8%), patellar crepitation in 12 cases (27.3%), quadriceps atrophy in 9 cases (20.5%), arthrofibrosis in 3 cases and graft failure in 2 cases. Author concluded the causes of intraoperative complications were technical errors, and anteriorly location of graft tunnel is most influenced factor to final fuctional results. To eliminate the postoperative complications, intraoperative technical errors should be avoided and also accelerated rehabilitation should be done.

Syphilis is a communicahble disease caused by the motile microaerophilic spirochete Treponema pallidum, which is only a netural pathogen for human. Prevalence of syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases has traditioially fluctuated with changes in sccia, conditions and sexual behavior. Although sexual contact is the main route of transmission, T. pallidum may also be infected through direct contact with syphilitic lesions, blood transfusion, ingestion of menstrual blood or vaginal secretions, or trsnsplacental transemission. Fomites as the means of transfer is only hypothetical and account for very few, if any, infection. Prosectors, blood handlers and laboratory technicians are at risk for accidental inoculation with infected materials. In extremely unusual circumstances, infection by means of contact with a skin lesion and human bite have been reported. We report two cases of eyphilis following the abnormal imposition of hands, which caused unnecessary erosive trauma with fingernails,

Synovial sarcoma is a distinct and generally recognized soft tissue tumor that it’s origin still raises controversy. The synovial origin of synovial sarcoma has not been determined despite the accepted terminology implying synovium as stem cell. Three cases of primary synovial sarcoma (2 fibrous monophasic, 1 biphasic type) were studied with a panel of antibodies against different types of cytokeratin and other markers (EMA, CEA, vimentin, S-100 protein, lysozyme, 1-antichymotrypsin). Spindle shaped-cell in monophasic synovial sarcoma showed reactivity for CK7 and pancytokeratin. Epithelial cells lining of glands in biphasic synovial sarcoma reactive for CK7, pancytokeratin, EMA, and focally CEA but spindle cells only positive for vimentin. By electron microscopy, fibrous monophasic synovial sarcoma showed pseudogland formation with intercellular junctions of paired subplasmalemmal destiny and discontinuous basal lamina. These results indicate that synovial sarcoma showes epithelial differentiation. We believe that synovial sarcoma arises in pluripotential connective tissue cells that is able to be differentiated into both mesenchymal and epithelial components. So, synovial sarcoma have been considered carcinosarcoma of soft tissues depending on the type of differentiation.

Stabilization of the unstable spine created by the posterior decompression is as important as the decompression itself in the treatment of spinal stenosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of C-D pedicle screw fixation in stabilization after lumbar decompression, in reduction of spondylolisthesis and in restoration of the lumbar sagittal curvature. C-D pedicle screw fixation was performed in 102 spinal stenosis patients after posterior lumbar decompression and fusion during the period from March 1987 to December 1988. Their age ranged from 15 to 72 years with an average of 49.1 years. There were 34 males and 68 females. The follow up was from 6 to 21 months with an average of 12.5 months. The causes of spinal stenosis were degenerative in 50 patients, spondylolisthesis in 39, iatrogenic in 9 and degenerative lumbar scoliosis in 4. Objective clinical results showed significant improvement of claudication, SLR limitation, motor weakness, sensory and DTR changes in most patients. Following results were obtained from the study of C-D pedicle screw fixation after posterior decompression in lumbar spinal stenosis.1. C-D pedicle screws provide the secure fixation that allows early ambulation and shorter hospital stay. 2. C-D pedicle screws enable the reduction of spodylolisthesis at the time of posterior stabilization. 3. C-D pedicle screw fixation is successful in the restoration and maintenance of sagittal curvature of the lumbar spine. 4. C-D pedicle screw fixation enables the correction of scoliosis at the time of posterior decompression.

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method is a proced.ure for in vitro enzymatic ampli fication of a specific segment of DNA. PCR method was used to detect any M. tuberculi DNA in the 16 cerebrospinal fluid specimens from 6 patients clinically diagnosed as tuberculous meningitis. We synthesized two oligonucleotide primers derived from the sequence of a gene that codes for the 65-kilodalton antigen of M. tuberculosis. The amplified 165bp genomic DNA of M. tuberculosis was detected in 3 specimens (18.5%) with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A following southem blot analysis confirmed these mycobacterial DNAs and detected another amplified DNA (25%) that was not seen on the polyacrylamide gels. Conventional detection methods such as smear and culture for M. tuberculosis found these specimens to be negative. Now we recommend PCR and combined southem blot analysis as a useful tool for early and rapid diagnosis of tuberulous meningitis.

PURPOSE: To report a case with proptosis associated with orbital panniculitis. METHODS: A 34-old-year man with unilateral proptosis for 1 month presented with diffuse swelling and redness in the eyelid and conjunctiva. His systemic symptoms were high fever, headache, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, weight loss, malaise and hepatosplenomegaly. He had subcutaneous nodules on the inguinal region, the pubis, and the upper abdomen. Ophthalmic examinations, orbit magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), and biopsy from orbital tissue were performed. RESULTS: The right eye revealed proptosis(22/14/102, Hertel's exophthalmometer), but other ocular findings including the fundus were normal. Diffuse infilterative lesions and definite proptosis were shown on orbit MRI. Biopsy specimen of orbital tissue revealed histiocytes containing nuclei and nuclear debris, mononuclear cells infiltration, and the characteristic 'bean-bag' cell i.e., macrophage exhibiting hemophagocytosis, which is histopathological characteristic of cytophagic histiocytic panniculitis. Proptosis, swelling and redness of the eyelid improved gradually following systemic corticosteroid therapy to control the disease. CONCLUSION: This report describes a rare finding of proptosis as the manifesting sign of orbital panniculitis.
