Hemangioma in peripheral nerves is a very rare condition. Two such conditions are experienced. One case aceompanied by nerve symptom was observed in ulnar nerve and was operated on by extirpation of the tumor including the nerve and was followed by nerve grafting. The other case involved the median nerve had no signs of nerve irritation and was also treated by tumor extirpation.

The present study was intended to examine the spectrum of radiographic patterns of the stomach associated withacute and chronic pancreatitis and their complications. Subjects served for the study consisted of 70 cases ofpancreatitis (36 cases in acute stage and 34 cases in chronic stage). Intramural and perigastic permeation ofextravasated pancreatic enzymes and secondary inflammatory reacation that follows are responsible for theardiographic change observed. 1. Generalized rugal thickening and particularly selective mucosal prominences ingreater curvature of body and antrum are characteristically seen in acute(14 of 36 cases

A tumor of the neuromyoarterial apparatus, the glomus, was described by Masson : the epitheloid cell of glomus was derived from the pericyte of Ziemmermann and these cells were widely distributed in the body. From Jan. 1987 to Oct. 1993, six patients (male 1, female 5), who were diagnosed as a glomus tumor in the hand were operated. The lesions were distributed in the distal phalanges of thumb (3 cases), index (1 case), ring finger (1 case) and little finger (1 case). The average duration of clinical manifestation was 6.3 year. Nail extraction was performed because of pain in 2 cases, but symptom was not improved. The clinial symptoms were severe lancinating pain, tenderness and cold induced pain in all 6 cases, palpable mass in 2 cases, bluish purple discoloration of skin in 4 cases, subcutaneous hemorrhage in 1 case, swelling in 2 case. On the reontgenography, bone changes were detected in 2 cases, soft tissue change was detected in 1 case and 3 cases showed unremarkable findings. The treatments were simple excision in 5 cases,curettage and bone graft in 1 case and symptoms were improved in the 6 case with the remnant mild pain and there was no recurrence. The aim of this study was to report the rare cases of glomus tumor in the hand.

Twenty-six cases of fracture of the femur and tibia on the same leg in twenty-five patients were treated at the Dept. of Orthopedic Surgery, Kyungpook National University Hospital during the period of 1973 to 1979. Twenty-two patients were sustained by the motor vehicle accident. Open fractures of the femur and tibia were ten cases, and closed femur fracture and open tibia fracture were twelve cases. Concomitant Injuries were brain Injury in eight patients and hemorrhagic shock In seven patients. Eight patients were treated by internal fixation (Kuntschernall or Compression plate) on femur and by conservative treatment on tibia. Conservative treatment was done in eleven patients on both femur and tibia fracture. Five patients were amputated. Average healing time of fracture was: twenty-two weeks in femur and twenty-seven weeks in tibia. Functional end results were assessed and rated with satisfactory results In six patients and fair and poor in elght patients respectively.

Authors have treated a case of glomus tumor which was occurred in the tip of the right thumb, 34 years old female. The patient has complained of pain, tenderness, and cold sensitivity on the lateral side of the tip of the right thumb for 10 years. Reddish purple discolorarion was noticed under the nail bed. On X-ray, erosion of the lateral cortex of the distal phalanx and increased soft tissue density around the erosion was noted. Grossly, the tumor was purple in color, more deeply colored than the surrounding tissue and tumor tissue will shell out of the surrounding bone and soft tissue. Glomus tumor was confirmed by the excisional biopsy.

This study was undertaken to observe the effects of centrally administred antihistamines on the blood pressure. Diphenhydramine(DPH), a H1-receptor antagonist, and ranitidine(RAN), a H2-receptor antagonist were administered intracerebroventricularly(icv) on urethane-anesthetized rabbits. 1) Both DPH and RAN administered intraccebroventricularly increased blood pressure, however the intravenous(iv) adminstration of them did not affect blood pressure. The pressor response to icv DPH was dose-dependent, but that to icv RAN was not. 2) The pressor response to icv DPH(1mg) was either markedly attenuated or reversed to depressor response by the pretreatment with icv phentolamine(250,500ug), and iv chlorisondamine(0.1, 1mg/Kg) and iv phenoxybenzamine(1mg/Kg). In cord-sectioned rabbtis, icv RAN) 1mg) did not produce pressor response. 3) The pressor responsr to icv RAN(1mg) was not affected by the pretreatment with icv phentolamine(500ug), iv chlorisondamin(1mg/Kg) and iv phenoxybenzamine(1mg/Kg), and iv phenoxybenzamine(1mg/Kg). RAN also producted pressor response in cordsectioned rabbits. These results suggest that the pressor response to icv DPH is elecited by increasing peripheral sympathetic tone via the stimulation of central alpha-adrenoreceptors and the pressor response to icv RAN is produced by releasing some humoral facotr which can increase blood pressure.
