The athors have presented recently treated 4 cases of malignant tumors of the eye and adnexa. 1. All of them were rapidly aggrevated after previous incompleted surgical management (3 cases) or postponement 01 operation (1 case). 2. Three cases of them except adenoid cystic Ca. were recurred after orbital exenteration. 3. The authors were concluded that the poor prognosis is due to its nature of malignancy and delayed radical surgical management.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to develop a baptist electronic Nutritional Screening Program (B-eNSP) that could be easily used to identify patients with nutrition at risk or malnutrition on their admission to hospital using an integrated medical information system and to evaluate validity, reliability and efficiency of B-eNSP. METHODS: From June 1 2009 to June 21 2009, we enrolled 496 patients for prospective research. We analyzed age, sex, weight, height, weight loss in the last 3 months, serum albumin, alteration of dietary intake, gastrointestinal symptom, functional capacity, diagnosis and its relationship to nutritional requirements, physical examination and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). B-eNSP included body mass index (BMI), weight loss in the last 3 months, serum albumin. Each component was scored. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated to evaluate the validity of the B-eNSP. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn by using B-eNSP to choose a cut-off value that maximizes sensitivity and specificity and Yoden Index. Comparison with SGA and the reliability of the B-eNSP was done using kappa statistics. RESULTS: The maximum Yoden Index was 0.866 and the cut-off value of the ROC curve was 2. A B-eNSP score higher than 2 was defined as nutrition at risk or malnutrition. Reliability of the B-eNSP was in accordance with SGA by kappa 0.845. CONCLUSION: The B-eNSP can be used efficiently to identify patients with nutrition at risk or malnutrition by simply using an integrated medical information system.

The 6 patients with neglected rupture of the Achilles tendon were treated by end to end anastomosis using the V-Y tendinous flap originated by Abraham in 1975. A tendinous flap was developed over the tendon by making an inverted V incision, which was then repaired in a Y fashion. The postoperative results were satisfactory with no functional disability of the ankle and with recovery of muscle strength for periods of 8 months to 15 months, but slight limited dorsiflexion of the ankle in two cases were noticed. The advantages of this method are: 1. Optimum functional recovery. 2. Recovery of muscle strength and tendon contour. 3. Prevention of late stretching or possible rupture of the healed tendon at the rupture site.

3 cases of giant cell tumor in the distal femur or upper tibia were treated by curettage and acrylic cement packing between October 1978 and May 1981. All were females. The postoperative courses were satisfactory with no recurrence or malignant change for periods of 16 months to 30 months. In one case, acrylic cement reinforced with tantalum wire was used because it is superior to acrylic cement alone in mechanical properties. The adventages of this method are: 1. The cautery effect of setting cement. 2. Avoidence of the need for large quantities of cancellous bone 3. The possibility of incorporating a prosthesis if the lesion is extensive. 4. Rapid mobilization. 5. Ease of early diagnosis of recurrence.

Iron deficiency remains the most common cause of anemia in infants and chidren despite increasing availability of iron-fortified foods. We screened out anemia in 9-month old infants in well baby clinic to know the prevalence of anemia and the weaning status. The results were as follows: 1) Among 345 infants screened, 24 infants (7%) were found to have anemia. 2) The kind of anemia was microcytosis and 7 infants (2.2%) revealed hypochromia. 3) Among the remaining 311 non-anemic infants, 6 infants (1.9%) revealed microcytosis and 7 infants (2.2%) revealed hypochromia. 4) In anemic group the mean hemoglobin concentration was 8.75+/-1.03gm/dl, hematocrit was 27. 73+/-3.11%, MCV was 65.84+/-8.21 fL, MCHwas 20.95+/-2.93 pg and MCHC was 31.34+/-1.89 gm/dl. 5) In 9 anemic infants, weaning was delayed until 9 months of age.

Lipomas of the heart are benign neoplasms and have rarely been described. Due to the fact that they normally cause no symptoms, diagnosis is often purely accidental. Because of the rarity of these tumors, it seems worthwhile to present an example studied at autopsy. It was associated with the sudden death of a 15-year-old boy. The tumor arose from the wall of the left ventricle and occupied the pericardial cavity, measuring 13x7x6 cm in size. The tumor was whitish-yellow, translucent, and soft. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of mature adipose tissue which extended between muscle fibers. This current case, the giant cardiac lipoma is believed to produce disturbances of the conduction system and distrubances of cardiac filling.

Various surgical methods have been used to reconstruct severe soft tissue defects of the finger with exposed critical structures such as tendon, bone, and nerve. Some of these methods include rotation flap, cross finger flap, or regional flap similar to neurovascular island flap. However, there were often difficult situations where a flap could not be applied depending on the remaining surrounding tissue, injured area, and size of defect. As a result, free flap or distant flap may become necessary. However, distant flaps often cause stiffness of the finger joints since the hands need to be immobilized for a long time, while standard free flaps may be too thick to cover the finger and cause problems such as morbidities of the donor site. Since May, 1997, at Anam Hospital, we have performed reconstruction on 6 patients with soft tissue defect using a thin, flexible medial plantar septo-cutaneous free flap similar to the volar aspect of the finger in anatomical characteristics of the skin and subcutaneous tissue covering. The vessels used for this flap were superficial branches of medial division of the medial plantar artery and vena comitantes, or the subcutaneous veins. The mean size of the flaps was 2.75cm x 4.25cm. Primary repair or split-thickness skin graft was performed on the donor site depending on the size. All the flaps survived without significant complications, except one case of venous insufficiency. The composition of the transferred flaps was good with the recovery of pain, touch and temperature sensation. A free medial plantar septo-cutaneous flap has several advantages, e.g., it is small in comparison with other standard free flaps, having two draining venous pathways, good color and texture, and a good recovery of protective sensation. This flap can be used for the reconstruction of soft tissue defect on the heel and foot, as well as the volar aspect of fingers.
