Secondary involvement of the eye and orbit occurs in about two to four percent of the patients with generalized lymphomatosis and/or other forms of lymphomatous tumors. Of the extranodal primary lesions which are more rare manifestation of the malignant lymphoma, only one percent occur in the eye and orbit. The malignant lymphoma of the orbit is consequently a relatively uncommon condition. The authors experienced a case of the malignantly mphoma of the orbital margin and treated by local radiation therapy with Co60, and the lesions regressed rapidly and completely disappeared. There has been no sign of recurrence at the orbital region, but we found that the malignant lymphomatous lesions involved in the pancreas and omentum by the surgical laparotomy. The patient died of poor course of the disease about 20 days after discharge.

PURPOSE: Despite the high prevalence of headaches in students, their lifestyles have not been well examined. We examined correlation between lifestyle and headache in Korean students. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional, school-based study from a randomized and proportional sample of 5,360 male and female students. The questionnaires include demographic data, lifestyle, in addition to specific questions about headache according to International Classification of Headache Disorder II (ICHD-II) criteria. Valid questionnaires were returned by 94.1% (5,039, boys 2,405, girls 2,634) of the sample. Modified criteria changed the item 'duration' in migraine (>1 hour instead of 4 hours). We analyzed the data in terms of exercise, regular eating, sleep time, fluid intake, and caffeine intake. RESULTS: Students on regular exercise have less headache (P=0.03). Students who eat regularly have less recurrent headache (P<0.0001, odds ratio=0.5). Students sleep more have less headache (P<0.0001). Students take more fluid have less headache (P=0.0002). Students take more caffeine have more headache (P=0.0001). CONCLUSION: There seem to be a significant relationship between life style and headache in school children in South Korea. We suggest that changing the lifestyles or habits should be considered to manage and prevent headaches in school children.
