The authors did clinical analysis for 37 cases, ranging from 5 to 13 year old of age and following result obtained. 1. In group I partial involved type had brightful prognosis even in the neglected the cases. 2. Ischeal brace did not give any help to group II & III but in group I, it gave some help to the prognosis. 3. In untreated cases of old age group developed early arthritic changes. 4. The inital radiological bony changes in early L-C-P. cases was the demineralization of the subchondral area and subsequently subohondral vaccum phenomena followed.

The unstable pelvic fracture involving sacro-iliac joint produced by excessive force, is relatively rare but causes a multiplicity of complications and presents a major therapeutic problem. The clinical results were obtained as follows: 1. 9 patients out of 16 were in age group between 20 to 29 year, Male and female ratio was 5:3 2. 10 patients out of 16 were produced by traffic accident. 7 patients among 16 were included in vertical shear type and 5 in lateral compression type. 3. There were 44 associated injuries in 15 patients. Fractures in other region were the most common associated injury in 20 and injuries of the genito-uninary system in 8. 4. All of the cases were treated conservatively and their result were excellent or good except 1 patient in pelvic disruption type, who has had paraplegia due to fracture-dislocation of L4-5.

Congenital dislocation of the hip has been known as one of the most common congenital anomalies in the orthopedic field since the time of Hippocrates (460-357 B.C.). The occurence of C.D.H. in twin babies is extremely rare thus few if any papers have been reported. During the period of January 1971 through June 1976 the authors have treated a total of 49 cases as inpatients. Two of these were twin babies. In both cases the hip was surgically reduced and followed by open reduction and femoral derotation osteotomy. Clinically and radiologically the results were good during the duration of follow-up seven months after operations.

A 4-year-old boy has had a solitary sclerotic depressed plaque on the right anterior chest since birth. The histopathologic findings are consistent with morphea profunda: thickening, hyalinization, and homogenization of collagen bundles in the dermis and subcutaneous tissues, admixture with a prominent lymphocytic and plasma cell infiltrate, and sweat glands en-trapped between the thickened collagen bundles. We report a case of congenital solitary morphea profunda.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical value of postoperative follow-up examination of F-wave and H-reflex in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy and to clarify optimal timing of follow-up examination. METHOD: The subjects were 17 patients with unilateral lumbosacral radiculopathy caused by disc herniation. In patients with the L5 radiculopathy, F-waves were obtained from extensor digitorum brevis and six parameters including minimal latency per height were used. In patients with the S1 radiculopathy, H-reflexes were obtained from gastrocnemius and amplitude and minimal latency were used as parameters. These parameters were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at week 1, 3, 6. These changes of the parameters and clinical findings were related. RESULTS: The parameters of peroneal F-wave and tibial H-reflex showed significant improvement at 3 weeks and 6 weeks after surgery. The improvements of these parameters were not related with clinical improvement at 1 week after operation, but these were significantly related with improvement of pain and muscle weakness at 3 weeks after operation. CONCLUSION: These findings suggested that follow-up examination of F-wave and H-reflex were valuable for objective assessment of lumbosacral radiculopathy after operation and the optimal timing for follow-up study was 3 weeks after operation.

We have reviewed our experiences of computerized tomography(CT) in the fracture of the spine. Between December 1983 and June 1985, we treated 33 fractures of the spine in 32 patients. We have used CT for the diagnosis of fractures of the spine in 29 cases (28 patients). Also we have used Louis scoring system to evaluate the stability of the fractured spine. The results are as follows. 1. CT has many advantages that were not given from simple radiograp hies or laminagrams. It reveals the vertebral body, vertebral column, posterior compartments and surrounding soft tissues excellently, and it is easy to interpretate. Also it can be done comfortably and rapidly without the need of manipulations. 2. We could acquire many informations from post-operative or long term following up of CT examinations. 3. If the Louis score is higher than 3, we should think it is unstable, and should take internal fixation of the vertebral column. 4. There is a correlation between Louis score and neurologic signs (p < 0.01). If there was a neurologic sign with low Louis score, less than 1, the recovery was soon, less than 24 hours. 5. According to CT findings for fragmentation or location of fragment, we can alternate an anterior decompression or a posterior decompression. 6. It is necessary to use CT as a initial diagnostic procedure with the simple radiographic examination in spine fracture.
