Extraskeletal Neoplasm Resembling Ewings Sarcoma was firstly reported with comprehensive review of 39 cases by L. Angervall and F.M. Enzinger in 1975. The tumors chiefly affected young adults and most commonly involved the soft tissue of lower extremity. Microscopically, they were consisted of solidly packed small, round or ovoid cells arranged in sheets or lobules, which were indistinguishable from those of the Ewings sarcoma of bone. The authors recently experienced a soft tissue sarcoma occurring in deltoid area of young male patient, which was diagnosed extraskeletal neoplasm resembling Ewings sarcoma. The case review is presented.

In the treatment of elderly hip fracture, early mobilization as a means of reducing early postoperative morbiyt and morbidity is mandatory. Even though Ender nailing have many advantages, most serious problems with use of Ender nailing method are distal migration of nails, subsequent loss of fixation and limited knee joint motion. To prevent these difficult problems, we have used distal wiring technique with Ender nailing since 1988. In operation, we performed Ender nailing as usual manner under image intensifier and for the prevention of the nail migration, we performed circumferential wiring through the each Ender nail eye and above the adducter tubercle of the distal femur. Forty six cases were available with minimum follow-up of six months which were healed radiologically and clinically (Mean follow up: 21 months). The mean age was 74 years (Range: 52 years-88 years)and showed 26 cases of famale and 20 cases of male. The radiological morphometry using Singh index showed poor bone quality: 36 cases were below Grade III and the fracture type was classified by Tronzo criteria. In results, patients who had Ender nailing with distal wiring showed no distal migration, however one case of proximal migration was observed at the beginning stage of this technique. So, in elderly trochanteric fracture, to reduce the complication of the Ender nailing, especially nail migration, the authors recommend the Ender Nailing with distal wiring technique.

The injury of the epiphysis or epiphyseal plate produces undesirable effects on the normal growth of the bone, such as bone bridge, growth arrest and angular deformity. Authors performed vascularized fibular epiphysis and epiphyseal plate transplantation in 7 years old girl, who received the excision of the exostosis on distal ulna, followed by progressive varus deformity of right forearm and growth arrest of distal ulna.

We performed ERCP manometry of Sphincter of Oddi(SO) before and after endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST) for evaluation of the effect af EST on the SO. The subjects were postcholecystectomized common bile duct stone patients(n=l2) and EST was performed by major incision. The pressure gradient between common bile duct and duodenum before EST (8.6 + 3.9 mmHg) decreased significantly after EST(2.4 +1.7 mmHg). The length of SO before EST(8.8 + 0.8mmHg) decreased significantly after EST(2.5 + 0.8mm). But in each patient, the pressure gradient between common bile duct and duodenum remained in spite of the major incision. In conclusion, EST alters the function of the sphincter of the Oddi, but does not destroy its all protective function. The positive pressure in the bile duct is preserved in contrast to the absolute loss of pressure following surgical transduodenal sphincteroplasty.
