Since Palmer's introduction of the torn medial collateral ligament, many clinical and anatomical studies were performed. But any reconstructive procedure of the medial collateral ligament of the knee known to us, has not solved the problem completely yet. The purpose of present study is to describe a technique of reconstruction, socalled Tatsuzawa's tenodesis surgery of transposed semitendinosus tendon, and is to report the clinical results of 45 cases treated by his procedure between April 1976 and June 1981. In addition, significance of the procerdure was compared with the result of primary closure group of the torn ligament. Tatsuzawa's procedure consists of reinforcement surgery of the repaired or unrepaired torn medial collateral ligament with forwardly transposed semitendinosus. The semitendinosus tendon was brought forward to lie adjacent to deep layer of the medial collateral ligament. The transposed part of the tendon was sutured throughout its length to the medial collateral ligament and to the medial aspect of the tibia and femoral condyle. Because the direction of transposed tendon as similar to the direction of fibers of medial collateral ligament, the procedure was very simple and anatomical one, and had some functional advantages. In this series some old cases are treated only with tendon reinforcement operation without repairing the laxed torn ligament. The results of the surgery were evaluated by the Asais modification of the Feltons evaluation criteria. Results obtained were as follows: 1. In semitendinosus tenodesis with or without primary repair of the torn ligament, satisfactory results were obtained (excellent and good) in 33 cases (73.3%). But in 20 cases of the primary repair group, the satisfactory results were obtained in 11 cases (55%). More satisfactory results were obtained with the semitendinosus tendon reinforcement operation of the torn ligament than only with primary repair. 2. In 29 cases with fresh injury of the medial collateral ligament in which the primary repair together with the tendon reinforcement procedure was performed, satisfactory (excellent and good) results were obtained in 72.4% (21 cases), and in 16 untreated old cases in which only the tendon reinforcement procedure were done, satisfactory results were obtained in 75%. 3. In 5 cases having medial collateral and anterior cruciate ligaments tear, excellent results were obtained in 3. This explains that semitendinosus tendon reinforcement procedure is the key one of the reconstructive operative procedures. It is thought that the procedure is also effective for the anterior cruciate tear to provide the anterior instability.

Primary malignant parovarian epithelial tumors are extremely rare, with only 56 cases previously reported in the world literature. Most parovarian epithelial tumors are of paramesonephric (Mullerian) origin. In this article, we report the first case in the Korean literature of papillary serous cystadenoma of borderline malignancy from paramesonephric parovarian cyst. This case presented here is of particular interest since this neoplasm is rare. A 48-year-old female underwent a hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection for a cystic tumor of the right parovarian area. The tumor, measuring 13 cm in diameter, was apart from the ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus. The cyst wall had well-developed smooth muscle layers. The cyst was lined with mildly atypical ciliated and non-ciliated low columnar cells compatible with those of paramesonephric origin. From the inner surface of the cyst several cauliflower-like structures projected into the lumen. They were of a predominantly papillary architecture covered by atypical epithelial cells with piling-up and occasional glandular growth. No destructive stromal invasion was identified.

A case of invasive cribriform carcinoma of the breast is presented with fine need- le aspiration cytologic features. The aspiration was performed from a papable 2.0cm mass in the upper outer quadrant of the right breast in a 53 year-old woman. The aspirate showed cellular smear composed of larger three dimensional tight clusters, smaller monolayered loose clusters, and many individual cells on the clean background. In the clusters, the tumor cells were bordering central lumina, quite similar to the cribriform in histology. The tumor cells in the clusters and individual tumor cells had uniform, small and round nuclei. The chromatin was finely granular, and nuclear membrane was smooth. No discernible nucleoli were present (nuclear grade 1-2). Unless the abundance of individual cells and the cribriform growth pattern are recognized in the smear, the cytologic diagnosis of invasive cribriform carcinoma is difficult.

Nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) are loops of DNA which occur in the nucleoli of cells which possess ribosomal RNA genes. The numbers and areas of NORs have been thought to be related to cellular activities. We aimed to investigate the direct relationship between the parameters of AgNORs and cellular proliferative activity using immunohistochemical method with the monoclonal antibody Ki-67, which demonstrates proliferating nuclei. The sequential technique for the simultaneous Ki-67 immunostaining and NOR staining was applied to the same slides of a series of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) of the low, intermediate, and high grade type. The number of AgNOR per cell was counted and mean NOR percentage nuclear area (NPNA) was measured by morphometry in both the Ki-67 positive and Ki-67 negative nuclei. The increased immunoreactivity for Ki-67 was found in the high grade than in the low grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This was reflected in the two areas of the palatine tonsils and lymph nodes, the positive cell counts being higher in the follicle center nuclei than in those in the interfollicular compartment. In general the numbers and NPNA of AgNORs were higher in the Ki-67 positive nuclei than in those lacking the antigen in malignant lymphomas as well as in control. The AgNORs numbers and NPNA in controls were the highest in the Ki-67 positive cells in the follicular area and the lowest in the Ki-67 negative cells in the perifollicular area. In malignant lymphomas the numbers and NPNA of AgNORs tended to increase in proportion to their grade in both the Ki-67 positive and negative cells. The numbers of AgNORs of the high grade and the NPNA of the intermediate and the high grade were significantly higher in Ki-67 positive cells than in Ki-67 negative ones. With this double staining method it was now possible to confirm that numbers and NPNA of AgNORs were directly related to the cellular proliferative activity. In maligant lymphoma, among the several parameters of the AgNORs, NPNA in Ki-67 positive cells is proposed to be the most useful marker in determining the prognosis of the patient.

BACKGROUND: Partial unilateral lentiginosis (PUL) is a rare pigmentary disorder characterized by grouped multiple lentigines on otherwise normal skin that histologically have the typical features of lentigo. This entity has been only rarely reported in the Korean population. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and histopathologic characteristics, association with other disorders, and differential diagnosis of PUL. METHODS: We reviewed our experiences of thirteen cases of PUL which had been collected in our dermatology clinic during the 6-year period between 1993 and 1998. RESULTS: Twelve patients were female and one was male. In 3 patients the lesions appeared after the age of 20 years. Ten patients had the lesions on the upper part of the body, the neck being the most common location. No bias was shown in terms of the side of the body affected. Cafe-au-lait macules (one to three) were found in six patients, axillary freckles were observed in two. Histopathologic examination of biopsy specimens commonly showed hyperpigmentation of the basal layer, elongation of rete ridges, and an increased number of melanocytes. There ,was no evidence of associated disorders or family history. CONCLUSION: Based on this data, we confirmed that PUL is a benign, idiopathic lentiginosis with no commonly associated abnormalities. Furthermore, we believed that PUL is not uncommon in Korean people.

We report a case of sebaceous hyperplasia showing linear arrangement in a 13-year-old girl. The lesion was found at birth and became prominent gradually. Multiple small discrete yellowish papules were arranged in a linear pattern on the temporal srea of the face. Unusual, incidental histopathologic finding was a sebaceous lobule lying in a dilated infundibular portion, which appeared to represent transfollicular extrusion of sebaceous lobule as a natural phenomenon.
