The diagnosis of OPCA could be made clinically with important aid of brain CT scanning, although the definite and conclusive diagnosis only by postmortem pathological determination. We reviewed, clinically and with brain CT examination, 12 cases of patients with OPCA who were admitted to the Yeungnam University Hospital for a recent 5 years. The result were as following: 1. The distribution of age is from 49 to 72, mainly 50 to 60. Man is more frequent than women at the 4.5 times. 2. The interval period from Sx. Onset to diagnosis is 1 year to 6 years. 3. The usual initial Sxs. Were dizziness (58%), ataxia (33%), and other less frequent Sxs. Were weakness of low extremities, dysarthria, headache and urinary incontinence. The clinical manifestations at the initial diagnosis were cerebellar disturbance (100%), dysarthria (83%), and increased deep tendon reflexes (58%). 4. The results of brain CT finding are like this: the width of cerebellar sulci is more than 1mm, other 4 cases more than 2mm. the width of cerebellar pontine cistern of the patient if usually 3 to 4mm, other 2 cases extended to the 5 mm. the A. P and lateral lengths of 4th. ventricle is 4 mm and 4 to 8 mm respectively. 6 cases of whole patients show coincidentally cerebral atrophy.

One and a half syndrome is an ipsilateral gaze paresis or palsy combined with and internuclear ophthalmoplegia on contralateral gaze. The lesion site is at the paramedian pontine reticular formation and the adjacent MLF. The common causes are unilateral pontine infarction and multiple sclerosis. We experienced a case of one and a half syndrome which has a suspected small pontine infarct.

With the increase of motor accident, the rate of popliteal artery injury is increased, As the injuries are critical, early diagnosis and prompt treatment can save the limb. 27 cases of popliteal artery injury patients were reviewed and the result was as follows ; l. Amputation rate was 11%, as 3 out of 27 cases failed. There was no correlation between ischemic time and the rate of amputation. 2. Complete resection of all injured portion of vessel and reconstruction of patency through interposed saphenous vein graft was often indicated to avoid tension at the anastomosis site. 3. The rate of fasciotomy was positively correlated with the ischemic time. 4. Medial approach is preferred to posterior approach, since it makes proximal extension of exploration possible, and decrease the incidence of joint contracture. 5. Complications noted are wound infection, systemic sepsis and venous stasis, but they could be treated with proper management. However, nerve deficit due to associated nerve injuries was resist to treatment.

The author studied 20 healthy adults (20 hands) as a control and 30 patients (40 hands) with carpal tunnel syndrome to evaluate the clinical usefulness of measuring nerve conduction velocity after wrist flexion in diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome. The median nerve conduction velocity over wrist to finger segment was measured before and after wrist flexion for 1, 2 and 5 minutes, using belly-tendon method for motor nerve distal latency (MNDL) and antidromic method for sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV). The results were as follows: 1. In control group, MNDL increased in 1 hand and SNCV decreased in 2 hands after wrist flexion. In patient group, MNDL increased in 2 hands and SNCV decreased in 3 hands after wrist flexion. 2. In both control and patient group, there were no significant changes in mean values of SNCV and MNDL between before and after wrist flexion. 3. Phalen's wrist flexion test was positive in 5 percent of control and 60 percent of patient group. 4. Tinel's sign was present in 10 percent of control and 33 percent of patient group.

9.Central Corneal Thickness Measured by Ultrasonic Pachymeter in Normal Koreans.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 2000;41(11):2332-2337
Corneal thickness is not only a major indicator of corneal diseases but an important parameter for the safety and the prevention of complications in various refractive surgeries widely performed nowadays.Therefore, we tried to acquire the basic data of corneal thickness in normal Koreans through this study. Central corneal thickness was measured using ultrasonic pachymeter in 460 eyes of 238 normal Koreans and analyzed according to the difference in age, sex, left &right, refractive error, and mean keratometry.Mean CCT was 529.67+/-32.18 micrometer.There is no statistically significant difference in CCT according to the difference in age, sex, left and right, refractive error, and mean keratometry in normal Koreans.
