In order to assess the epidermal glycogen in the epidermal hyperplastic disease, PAS(Periodic Acid Schiff) stain with or without diastase is used. Epidermal PAS positive reaction is significantly increased in psoriasis (90. 0%), verruca vulgaris (100%) and lichen simplex chronicus (100%) than control group (12, 5%) Epidermal PAS positive reaction is relatively increased in prurigo nodularis(66. 7 %) and chronic contact dermatitis (75%) Strong PAS positive reaction is noticed in 3 of 5 cases (60%) with verruca vulgaris, but none of 22 cases with psoriasis. It is suggested that epidermal glycogen epidermal hyperplasia and that the more glycogen accumulated. than control group (12. 5%) in 3 of 5 cases (60%) with verruca vulaccumulation is accompanied with the hyperplastic the epidermis is, the more glycogen accumulated.

"Dual LAD" was defined as the early bifurcation of the proximal LAD into two vessels : a short LAD which remained in the anterior interventricular sulcus and does not reach the apex, and a long LAD which leaves the anterior interventricular sulcus only to return to the distal sulcus and continue to the apex. Recognition of "Dual LAD" is essential to prevent errors of interpretation of the coronary arteriogram and for planning of optimal surgical therapy. We report 2 cases of "Dual LAD" with the review of the literatures.

We report a case of a 44 year old femele with unilateral aldosterone-proudcing adrenal adenoma characterized by hypertension, plasma aldosterone excess, and low plasma renin, commonly but not invariably with hypokalemia. She also had asymmetric septal hypertrophy of left ventricle established with two-dimensional echocardiography. The electrocardiogram showed inverted T wave and prominent U wave with high QRS voltage on precordial leads. In the case of this patient, we are not sure whether asymmetric septal hypertrophy was caused by secondary hypertension and chronic aldosterone excess of primary aldosteronism, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy per se, so further long=term follow-up is required to determine it. Following the successful unilateral adrenalectomy, however, the systemic pressure fell down to the normal level and electrolyte abnormalities were corrected immediaterly within a few days and the modest regression in septal hypertrophy was noted in one year, suggesting that the promary aldosteronism contributes to the development or porgression of asymmetric septal hepertrophy.

OBJECT: In order to compare several Obstetric characteristics and outmmes of teenage pregnancy. METHODS: The 10 year clinical records of 11,583 women undergoing Cesarean section and delivery were reviewed in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Incheon Christian Hospital from July 1, 1989 to June 30, 1999. There were seventy-eight pregnancies under age 20 and we compared them with two hundred pregnancies aged 20-29 who were randomly chosen during the same periods as the control group. RESULT: The following results were obtained. The proportion of birth by teenagers increased from 0.5% of all birth in 1989 to 2.61% in 1999. The most of cases were in high teen group, age 14- 19.The majority(50.5%) were in the age of 19. Seventy two cases(92.3%) had no previous pregnant history. Six cases had one previous pregnant history. The frequencies of prenatal care were significantly lower than that of the control group(p<0.05). The mean gestational period was 36+4weeks, and showed significant difference between the study group and the control group(39+3 weeks). The incidence of preterm labor was significantly different between the two proups(p<0.05). But the incidence of postterm delivery were not significantly different between the two groups. The mean weight gain of pregnant teenagers revealed 10.64kg, significantly less profound than the control group. The matemal weight gain of control group revealed 12.95kg, respectively. The mean birth weight(2.54kg) of infant was significantly less profound than the control group. The incidence of birth of small for gestational age(birth weight 1,500-2,499gm ; 14.5%) was significantly increased among study group than the control group(1%). The rate of abdominal delivery(21.8%) were not significantly decreased than the control group(47%). The incidence of cephalopelvic disproportion and malpresentation for cesarean section were somewhat higher than the control group, and were statistically significant(p<0.05). During the antepartun period, anemia, pyelonephritis, and preterm labor occurred more frequently in the teenage pregnancy than the control group, but not statistically significant. Among postpartum complications, incidence of anemia(51.3%) increased significantly. The perinatal mortality, intrauterine growth retardation, congenital anomaly occurred more frequently than the control group. CONCLUSION: These results show that pregnancy of teenage will be comeout high risk and complications. And then we will be more concern and study about teenage pregnancy.
