A review of all 919 perinatal deaths occurring in II Sin Christian Hospital From 1985 to 1989 was carried out. The results of clinical analysis were as follows: 1) The overall perinatal mortality rate was 26.30 per 1,000 birth. 2) The perinatal mortality rate was lowest in the gestation group between 37~41 week and in the weight group between 2,501~4,000 gm. 3) The perinatal mortality rate was high in the age group under 20 and 40 and more. 4) The perinatal mortality rate was increased with an increasing number of parity. 5) The majority of neonatal deaths occurred within 24 hours of life, and the most common cause of death was prematurity. 6) The most common congesital anomaly was multiple anomaly, and the most common single anomaly was anencephaly. 7) In pregnancy, the most common maternal complication was anemia.

A study was made in the congenital anomalies in 137 babies born to 120 mothers with hydramnios, delivered at Ilsin Christian Hospital between Jan. 1st 1981 and Dec. 31th 1990. The results were as follows; 1) The incidence of hydramnios was 1.6/1000 deliveries, 120 cases in total 73, 129 deliveries. 137 infants was born and of these 71 (51.8%) had congenital anomalies. 2) Hydramnios was assiciated with a high incidence of prematurity and low birth weight infant. 3) The incience of multiple anomalies was 54.9% (39 out of 71 infants). The most common system involved with the congenital anomalies was the musculoskeletal system, 28.9% (39 cases out of 135) and the most frequent anomaly was anencephaly, 15 cases. 4) The perinatal mortality rate was 759/1000 total (104 cases) and of these 45 cases, 43.3% were associated with congenital anomalies. 53 of the live birth had congenital anomalies and of these 27 cases (50.9%) died in the neonatal period.

Fistula between the right renal artery and the infereior vena cava is a rare disorder, of which only 7 cases were reported in so far as the authors have reviewed. A 34-year-old man, who had got a stab wound on the abdomen and undergone an abdominal surgery 12 years ago during his military service, visited the hospital because of occipital headache and known hypertension for 5 years. On examination, his blood pressure was 200/140mmhg, and a thrill and loud continuous vascular bruits over the paraumbilical and right loin region were noted. his blood pressure was refractory to usual antihypertensive regimens. The chest X-ray film showed cardiac enlargement and pulmonary congestion. With the aids of abdominal ultrasonogram, static and dynamic renal scanning with (99m)T-DTPA, excretory urogram, aortogram and selective right renal angiogram, he was diagnosed as right renal artery inferior vena cava fistula. After fistulectomy and repair of walls of both vessels, his blood pressure was successfully controlled with drugs.

In order to assess the sensitively and specificity of the pulsed Doppler echocardiography in the aortic regurgitation, 44 patients with valvular heart diseases were examined by pulsed Doppler echocardiography. Every patient was examined in sequence of clinical examination including the physical, M-mode & 2D echocardiographic examination, Doppler technique and then angiocardiography. The obtained results were; 1) Pulsed Doppler echocardiography was very useful in the diagnosis of the aortic regugitation(sensitivity:100%, specificity:90%). 2) Pulsed Doppler echocardiography was especially useful in the detection of the aortic regurgitation in patients who were not detected by physical and conventional echocardiographic examination.
