OBJECTIVES: This study examined the effect of 2% chlorhexidine on the microTBS of a direct composite restoration using one-step self-etch adhesives on human dentin. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-four extracted permanent molars were used. The teeth were assigned randomly to six groups (n = 10), according to the adhesive system and application of chlorhexidine. With or without the application of chlorhexidine, each adhesive system was applied to the dentin surface. After the bonding procedure, light-cure composite resin buildups were produced. The restored teeth were stored in distilled water at room temperature for 24 hours, and then cut and glued to the jig of the microtensile testing machine. A tensile load was applied until the specimen failed. The failure mode was examined using an operating microscope. The data was analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA, Student's t-test (p < 0.05) and Scheffe's test. RESULTS: Regardless of the application of chlorhexidine, the Clearfil S3 Bond showed the highest microTBS, followed by G-Bond and Xeno V. Adhesive failure was the main failure mode of the dentin bonding agents tested with some samples showing cohesive failure. CONCLUSIONS: The application of 2% chlorhexidine did not affect the microTBS of the resin composite to the dentin using a one-step self-etch adhesive.

Castleman's disease represents an atypical lymphoproliferative disorder, infrequently associated with various immunologic abnormalities or subsequent development of malignancy such as Kaposi sarcoma, malignant lymphoma and plasmacytoma. Its clinicopathologic features depend on various etiologic factors such as Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV), oversecretion of IL-6, adhesion molecule and follicular dendritic cell dysplasia, etc. To investigate the relationship of Castleman's disease (CD) and the above factors, we reviewed 22 cases of CD. Four cases of KSHV positive CD were detected, all multicentric, plasma cell type, and these cases displayed prominent vascular proliferation, characteristic 'Kaposi-like lesion'. IL-6 and CD54 positive mononuclear cells were scattered in interfollicular areas of KSHV positive cases. Follicular dendritic cell hyperplasia, vascular proliferation, expression of IL-6 and CD54 did not show any significant difference between solitary vs multicentric type, and plasma cell type vs hyaline vascular type. Our study suggests that KSHV positive CD reveals unique pathologic features, and the probable relationship of KSHV and IL-6 and CD54 is discussed.

This study outlines the current status of the autopsy practice and the medical records for autopsies at the Department of Pathology, Seoul National University Hospital. Total number of autopsy cases from 1954 to 1995 was 3,131. Adults aged over 17 were 371 cases and children were 2,515 cases. The demographic data in 245 cases was not available. The number of adult autopsies and its proportion among total number of autopsies during 10-year periods decreased from 144 cases (40%) during the 10-year-period from 1956 to 52 cases (3%) during the 10-year-period from 1986. The number of children cases during the same period groups increased slightly from 210 cases (58%) to 393 cases (25%). But the number of fetal cases increased rapidly from 7 cases (2%) to 1,146 cases (72%). Among fetal autopsies the proportion of fetuses died earlier than 24 weeks of gestation increased and this figure exceeds that of fetuses that died later than 24 weeks of gestation from 1992. Forty percent of the cases were submitted from the clinical departments of the Seoul National University Hospital but the remainders were referred from 73 hospitals. Final autopsy diagnoses were analysed according to the Korean Standard Classification of Disease (KCD)-3 coding system and by searching key words for all cases. Common diagnoses as coded among cases from 1990 were P9, P0, P2, Q2 and Q0. Common diseases by key words for adult cases were liver disease, tuberculosis and pneumonia. Common diseases for children cases were pneumonia, hyaline membrane disease, meningitis and tuberculosis. Through this study we could show the importance of autopsy services for fetuses. We could also establish a regular registration system for autopsies at general hospitals.

OBJECTIVES: To determine accurate diagnosis and proper treatment, we reviewed colonoscopic and histologic findings of flat adenoma of colon, METHODS: We studied retrospectively 2148 cases of colonoscopic findings performed in our hospital from March of 1993 to September of 1995. RESULTS: 1) The incidence of adenoma is 9.5%(203 cases), and that of flat adenoma is 1.6%(34 cases). 2) The location of flat adenoma is 3 cases in rectum(8.8%), 15 cases in sigmoid colon(44.1%), 9 cases in descending colon(26.5%), 3 cases in transverse colon(8.8%) and 4 cases in ascending colon and cecum(11.8%). 3) The diameter of flat adenoma was smaller than 5mm in 17 cases(50.0%), between 5-10mm in 8 cases(23.5%) and larger than 10mm in 9 cases (26.5%). Mean size was 9.2mm. 4) In colonoscopic features, type IIa was 25 cases (73.5%), type IIa + IIc was 5 cases(14.7%) and lateral spreading tumor was 4 cases(11.8%). 5) In histologic findings, tubular adenoma was 26 cases(76.5%), tubulovillous adenoma was 6 cases (17.6%) and serrated adenoma was 2 cases(5.9%). 6) The incidence of severe dysplasia or carcinoma was zero in smaller than 5mm, 25.0%(2 case) in 5-10mm and 55.6%(5 cases) in larger than 10mm. 7) The incidence of severe dysplasia or carcinoma was 11.5%(3 cases) in tubular adenoma and 66.7%(6 cases) in tubulovillous adenoma. 8) It was confirmed by abdominal CT scan or operation that lesions were limited to intraepithelium in 4 cases, mucosa in 2 cases submucosa in 1 case and no lymph node metastasis in any case. CONCLUSION: Even though flat adenoma of colon was smaller than polypoid adenoma, the incidence of malignant change was higher. When it was smaller than 10mm, the incidence of submucosal invasion or lymph node invasion was rare. Therefore endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR) can be the treatment of choice in flat adenoma smaller than 10mm, and after EMR, it is desirable to decide the treatment modality depending on the histologic findings.
