1.A Case of Congenital Hypopituitarism with Anterior Pituitary Aplasia and Ectopic Posterior Pituitary Gland.
Journal of Korean Society of Pediatric Endocrinology 2003;8(2):174-178
Congenital hypopituitarism is a rare disorder with absence or reduction of hormones produced by the pituitary gland. The clinical manifestations are hypoglycemia, prolonged jaundice, hyponatremia, micropenis, underdeveloped clitoris, lethargy, convulsion, pallor, cyanosis, apnea, hypotension, temperature instability etc. in neonates and growth failure, delayed or absent puberty in older infants and children. We experienced a case of congenital hypopituitarism who was a 20-year-old male patient with short stature and delayed puberty. Combined pituitary function test revealed panhypopituitarism and magnetic resonance imaging of brain showed anterior pituitary aplasia and ectopic posterior pituitary gland.

4.Combination of Surgical Thrombectomy and Direct Thrombolysis in Acute Abdomen with Portal and Superior Mesenteric Vein Thrombosis.
Vascular Specialist International 2014;30(4):155-158
Portal vein (PV) thrombosis (PVT) is a rare condition with development of thrombosis in the PV and its branches. Further extension to the splenic and superior mesenteric vein (SMV) causes intestinal infarction, with a reported mortality of up to 50%. A variety of treatments for PVT exist including anticoagulation, thrombolysis, surgical thrombectomy, insertion of shunts, bypass surgery, and liver transplantation. We experienced a case of successfully treated by surgical thrombectomy with direct thrombolysis into the thrombosed-PV and SMV. A 31-year-old male presented worsening abdominal pain for one week. Preoperative contrast enhanced computed tomography scan revealed complete PVT extending to splenic vein and SMV. The PV was accessed surgically and opened by thrombectomy; visual inspection confirmed proximal and distal flow. Urokinase was administered directly into the inferior mesenteric vein with successful decrease in thrombus burden. The complete angiography showed complete dissolution of thrombosis in PV and SMV.

6.Occupational Stress of Women Workers in Service Industries depending on Their Working Conditions.
Korean Journal of Occupational Health Nursing 2014;23(2):89-96
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to discover the influence of the working conditions on women workers' occupational stress. METHODS: Descriptive method is used to identify women's stress depending on their general working features and conditions by conducting a survey of them in women-dominated service industries. SPSS 18.0 program is used for data analysis and descriptive statistics is presented with standard deviation, frequency and percentage. chi2-test is used as an analysis tool. To figure out factors that influence their stress, logistic regression analysis is used for general features and working conditions as independent variables, and occupational stress as a dependent variable. RESULTS: As a result, among the independent variables, employment status, weekly working hours, career, shiftwork, and work-family-balance are meaningful factors that influence their stress. Temporary workers' stress is 3.65 times higher (p<.001), and workers working over 48 hours a week have 1.97 times higher stress (p<.003). Workers with over 5 years' career are under 1.73 times higher stress (p<.046) and shift workers are under 3.51 times higher stress (p<.001). Work family balance results in 1.93 times higher stress (p<.009). CONCLUSION: It is necessary to seek how to prevent and manage women workers' stress considering features.

7.Hybrid Treatment of Coexisting Renal Artery Aneurysm and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in a Gallbladder Cancer Patient.
Vascular Specialist International 2014;30(2):68-71
Renal artery aneurysm (RAA) is uncommon, and the coexistence of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an extremely rare condition with potentially high life-threatening mortality in case of rupture. Aneurysms can be treated by endovascular intervention or open surgery. Although most of aneurysms are treated by endovascular intervention, open surgery is often necessary for RAAs associated with the proximal renal bifurcation or the branches in the distal renal arteries. We report a rare case of coexisting RAA with AAA treated by hybrid method, consisting of endovascular aneurysm repair for AAA and open surgery for RAA located adjacent to the distal branches of the renal artery.
