1. We have reported here a case of left marked hydronephrosis due to left aberrant renal vessel, which was treated by ablative procedure. 2. Aberrant renal vessel is a rare disease, but is a relatively common cause of uretero-pelvic obstruction with intrinsic ureteropelvic stenosis. Clinically it is important that this disease may he easily complicated with the conditions such as obstruction, hydronephrosis and infection, and also, the surgeon may inadvertently lacerate the structure with resultant profuse hemorrhage during the operation.

A clinical study was made on 85 cases' of urinary lithiasis among the number of 3795 out-patients, during 5 years and 8 months from January 1964 to August 1969, and 80 cases were analyzed by a chemical method. (70 cases were safely reserved stone, 10 cases were by litholapaxy.) The results were as following: 1. The incidence of urinary calculi was 2.2%, male to female ratio being approximately 3.7: l. 2 83 cases of urinary calculi were found in the Chonnam district and 2 cases were found in the Chonbuk district 3. The age of the patients ranged from 20~40 years in approximately 65.6%. 4 The location of the urinary calculi was in ureter in 47%, kidney (29.4%), bladder(14.2%) and urethra (9.4%). 5. The most favored predilection of ureteral stone was lower third of ureter in approximately 47% of all cases 6. In a number of urinary calculi in each location 83.5% (71 cases) was single. The most common sire, was below 0.5cm in its diameter, and weight, below 0.5Gm on 41 cases (51.25%). 7. The clinical symptoms of upper urinary tract lithiasis showed flank pain in 81.5%, hematuria in 35. 4%, and suprapubic discomfort in 30. 8%, ,but in lower urinary tract, painful urination was in 85%, urgency in 60%, stoppage of urinary stream in 65% and hematuria in 40%. 8. The microscopic hematuria showed 87.1%, which incidence was higher in lower urinary tract calculi, and pyuria was revealed in 39. 9%. 9. The most frequent surgical intervention was ureterolithotomy in 38.5% (35 cases). 10. The results of chemical analysis of 80 urinary calculi showed the mixed type of calcium-phosphate and calcium oxalate in 40% (32 cases), calcium oxalate in 12. 5% (10 cases), calcium phosphate in 12.5% (10 cases), the mixed type of calcium-phosphate and ammonium-phosphate in 10% (8 cases), calcium-carbonate in 10% (8 cases) and urate in 3.75% (3 cases). 11. Cases of bilateral urinary calculi were revealed in 13.8%.

BACKGROUND: Aphasia is common in stroke patients. However, studies about characteristics and prog- nosis of aphasia by acute ischemic stroke were insufficient. The aim of this study is to disclose vascular lesions causing aphasia symptom and to evaluate and clarify types, severity and recovery patterns of vascular aphasia using quantitative aphasia test. METHODS: Twenty six patients were included in this study, who had aphasia symptoms due to acute ischemic lesions confirmed by MRI or CT. Standardized test of Korean version-the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) was performed in all subjects in acute stagte of stroke and was repeated 3 month later. Based on neuroimaging findings and results of aphasia tests, we divided all subjects into two groups, cortical aphasia and subcortical aphasia, and classified further into 8 types. The severity of aphasia measured by aphasia quotient (AQ) was graded. Changes in aphasia types and AQ and prognosis between cortical and subcortical aphasia was analyzed. RESULTS: Various vascular lesions caused aphasia symptoms in cortical and subcortical areas with good clinico-anatomical correlations. Eighteen patients(69.2%) had cortical aphasia and 8(30.8%) had subcor- tical one. Among 8 types of aphasia, 7 types were detected in our patients, and the most frequent type is global aphasia(30.8%). The mean incremental score of AQ between initial and follow-up test was 21.1+/-14.0. The distribution of severity of aphasia was as follows; grade I, 3.8%; grade II, 19.2%; grade III, 42.3%; and grade IV, 34.6%. Twenty one patients(80.8%) were followed up 97.9+/-7.4 days after initial test. Subjects who showed improvement in aphasia were 13(61.9%). Nine out of 13 belonged to cortical aphasia group and 4 out of them belonged to subcortical aphasia group. There was no significant difference in prognosis between cortical and subcortical aphasia group(p=0.58). CONCLUSION: Our study discloses various acute vascular lesions cause aphasia. It also provides cha- racteristics of patients with aphasia by acute ischemic stroke, such as types, severities and recovery patterns, which may help to assess vascular aphasia and its prognosis.
