At Orthopaedic Department of Kyung Hee University Hospital, we performed 50 total knee replacement in 32 patients who had suffered from rheumatoid arthritis during the period from Aug. 1982 to Dec. 1987. We studied these cases and compared the results of total knee replacement surgery in preoperative ambulatory patients(group I ) with those in preoperative non-ambulatory patients(group II ). 1. Preoperatively, 19 patients were able to walk, and 13 patients were unable to walk. 2. 7 patients of bilateral TKR(36.8%) were included in group I, and 11 patients (86.9%) in group II. 3. The improvement of range of motion after TKR was greater in group II (34 degrees) and in group I, average postoperative range of motion was similar to the average preoperative ROM. 4. Flexion contracture was more markedly improved in group II. 5. In group I, the average preoperative knee rating score by Hospital for Special Surgery rating system was 38.8 and improved to 93.4 postoperatively. In group II, the average preoperative knee rating score was 27.4 and improved to 85.7 postoperatively. 6. Postoperatively most of the patients were able to walk without support except one cases of infection(group I ) and the other who had severe rheumatoid involvements in other joints (group II ). 7. Preoperative evaluation for involvements of cervical spine and surrounding soft tissue structure was necessary endotracheal anesthesia. 8. There was 2 cases of complications in group I, and 4 cases in group II.

Horizontal tear of the meniscus occurs most commonly in older patients. The tear begins initially with a simple horizontal cleavage which divides the meniscus into superior and inferior leaves resembling a fish mouth and which may become a flap or more complex tear with time if subjected to repeated injury. Thirty-four patients(36knees/40menisci) with horizontal tear of the meniscus, treated with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy except in 3 extensive tears at Ulsan University Hospital from Jan. 1993 to Jun. 1996, were analyzed to investigate the factors that may be associated with this type of meniscal tear, and the results were as follows; 1. The tears commonly occurred in labor workers(61.7%) and without obvious trauma history(67.6%), and the average age at the time of surgery was 44 years. 2. The most common site of the tear was posterior horn of the medial meniscus (62.5%). 3. The 40 horizontal tears consisted of 12 horizontaVcleavage(30%), 3 horizontaVflap(7.5%), and 25 horizontaUdegenerative complex tears(62.5%). 4. Degenerative changes were frequently noted in both arthroscopy(69.5%) and roentgenography (72.2%).

Judet's rib struts which are designed for osteosynthesis are made of stainless steel. This report describes clinical analysis of our experiences of 30 cases with the operative stabilization of multiple rib fractures with Judet's rib struts from December, 1995, to December, 1996 in Chungmoo Hospital, Chounan. Our indications for operative stabilization were as follows: 14 cases in flail chest, 8 cases in severe displacement of rib including segmental fractures, 7 cases in additional procedures during intrathoracic operation, and 1 case in other cause. Postoperative artificial ventilation is needed in only 1 case for 5 days and posto- perative complications were few: 2 cases of hemopneumothorax, 2 cases of alcohol with- drawal delirium, and 1 case of postoperative hepatitis. Average duration of hospital admission who have limited thoracic injuries was 10.5 days. Though more comparative studies is necessary, we find this technique to be better than previously published methods, since it provides better stabilization and immobilization of the ribs and shortening the duration of hospital admission.

Ganglioneuromas of retroperitoneal cavity which not originate from adrenal gland are very rare tumor, and usually recognized incidental to some other aliment or on a routine physical examination. Ganglioneuromas are generally considered to be the mature form of a triad of tumors arising from neural crest tissue which include malignant neuroblastoma and ganglioneuroblastoma. We report one case of retroperitoneal non-adrenal ganglioneuroma with review of literature.
