Midline malignant reticulosis is a relentlessly progressive, localized, destructive inflammatory process of upper respiratory tract including the nose, nasopharynx, palate, paranasal sinuses, and midface. Histologically, it is characterized by a dense aceumulation of pleomorphic mononuclear cells with an admixture of inflammatory cells. We report a case of midline malignant reticulosis developed in a 64-year-old man, who showed a serosanguineous nasal discharge, perforation of nasal septum, persistent ulceration of hard palate, and disseminated lesions on the abdominal skin, which was confirmed by histopathalogical examination. In addition we studied infiltrated cells with atypical nuclei by immunohistochemical staining with a pannel of monoclonal antibodies. The results revealed that the atypical cells expressed the T-cell marker, but not the macrophage and B-cell marker.

There are few reports in the literature on how to care and manage bi!ateral congenital dislocation of the hip. Six patients have been encountered at this hospital from June 1979, of them four children had operative treat ment and the other two conservative. As a result of our experience about the management of bilateral congenital dislocation of the hip. The authors obtained the following conceptions; 1. The patient with bilateral dislocation was rather delayed in diagnosis. Therefore, in comp the treatment of bilateral cases was poorer than that of unilateral case. 2. In the case of the dislocated hip that might be easily reduced and maintained in the stab servative care was usually recommeded even in the older child. Unstable, unreduced hip,; hip in old children, the more definitive operation and internal & external rigid immobilization mandatory to get good result. 3. It might be beneficial to operate the more deformed and resistive hip first, and then to p with the same procedure 2 weeks after the first operation.

BACKGROUND: Serious pulmonary complications after lung surgery increase morbidity and mortality in perioperative period. Ketamine hydrochloride produces strong analgesic effect in spite of the psychomimetic effects. Intravenous anesthesia with ketamine was performed in lung surgery of patients with decreased pulmonary function and compared with inhalation anesthesia with enflurane. METHODS: Sixty patients, scheduled for elective lung surgery, were randomly assigned to two groups. Patients received either enflurane (Group 1, n=30) or ketamine (Group 2, n=30) as main anesthetic drug. Blood pressure and heart rate were compared in preinduction, postinduction, postintubation, postincision, intraoperative period (30 minutes, 60 minutes) and recovery room between groups, and in each group. Arterial blood gas analysis was compared in preoperative period, intraoperative period and recovery room between groups. Postoperative psychological complications evaluated in group 2. RESULTS: Blood pressure and heart rate were significantly different in postinduction, postintubation and recovery room between groups. PaO2 in group 2 was higher than in group 1 during intraoperative period and recovery room. Postoperative psychological complications occured in 4 patients (13%) in group 2. CONCLUSIONS: Ketamine affords advantage over enflurane anesthesia in terms of PaO2 during intraoperative period and recovery room in lung surgery of patients with decreased pulmonary function.

Gardner's syndrome is a familial disease consisting of gastrointestinal adenomatous polyposis, osteomas of the mandible, skull, and long bones, and a variety of sol tissue lesions, including sebaceous cysts, fibromas, lipomas, and desmoid tumors. The colon is the most common site for polyposis, but the stomach, duodenum, small bowel, and periampullary area may also be involved. The diagnostic evaluation, malignant potential, and management is identical to that for familial adenomatous polyposis. The extracolonic manifestations of Gardner's syndrome are frequent and varied. Gardner's syndrome is inherited as autosomal dominant traits. Authors experienced one case that is a 32 year old female patient who had colonic and duodenal multiple polyposis, desmoid tumor in abdominal wall and right mesocolon and odontoma on mandible.

Femoral Head fracture associated with posterior dislocation of the hip was once considered a rare industrial injury. However, the advant of high-speed travel has contributed to its increased incidence. Ten cases of fractured femoral head with posterior dislocation of the hip were treated at the Busan Paik Hospital between June 1979 and June 1982. During the same period, a total of 38 posterior hip dislocations were treated. The patients were followed for the average of 19.3 months, the range being 6 months to 3 years. There were 9 men and 1 woman the age ranged from 25 to 56 years. The fractures were classified according to Pipkin and the results were evaluated by Epsteins criteria. 1. The incidence of femoral head fracture was 26.3%, 10 cases of 38 posterior hip dislocations. 2. The better result was noted in open method than in closed method. 3. The absolute surgical indications were considered as followings. a. inadequate closed reduction of head fragment especially the large one. b. the involvement of weight bearing portion of femoral head. c. the hip joint pain caused by impingement of small fragment between joint space. 4. Arthrogram was helpful to find the concealed small fragment when the hip joint pain persisted with negative findings in ordinary x-ray.
