Progressive Muscular Dystrophy is a hereditary disorder characterized by progressive weakness and wasting of muscules. The etiology of muscular dystrophy is unknown, and no from of pharmacological treatment is considered effective. We report 2 cases of progressive muscular dystrophy occuring in a family, which were diagnosed by clinical findings, serum enzyme study and electromyography.

DiGeorge syndrome, a developmental defect of the third and fourth pharyngeal pouches, is characterized by aplasia or hypoplasia of the thymus and parathyroid glands and by conotruncal cardiac malformation. This syndrome is usually associated with deletion of long arm in chromosome 22 (22q11-). We experienced a case of partial DiGeorge syndrome in a 2-month-old male who had hospitalized because of recurrent hypocalcemic tetany and tetralogy of Fallot. Immunologic studies revealed the decreased percentage of T lymphocyte and increased percentage of B lymphocyte. Chromosomal study with high resolution banding, showed 46, XY, 22q13 deletion. We report a case of partial Digeorge syndrome with a brief review of literatures.

We report on a case of right thalamic hemorrhage resulting from low-voltage electrical injury caused by contact between a wet hand and an electronic scale. The patient was treated with clopidogrel for control of a previous cerebral infarction. The patient complained of numbness of the left upper extremity. On neurological examination, decreased motor power of her left side, grade IV, was observed. Findings on computerized tomography of the brain revealed a right thalamic hemorrhage. To the best of our knowledge, cerebral hemorrhage resulting from low-voltage electrical injury has not been previously reported in the literature.

Eight patients with diffuse panbronchiolitis were evaluated with chest radiograph and high-resolution computed tomography(HRCT). Paients consisted of 5 med and 3 women, aged 27-75 years(average, 54 years). Chest radiographic findings were diffuse small nodular densities, linear shadows, and thickened bronchial wall predominantly in both lower lung fields. All 8 patients had pansinusitis. On HRCT, small nodules and branching linear structures, 1-3mm internal to the pleural surface, representing centrilobular bronchiolar lesion, were found along with thickening of medium and small sized bronchial wall. These nodules did not show coalescence. In conclusion, chest radiographs were usually suggestive and high-resolution CT was diagnostic of diffuse panbronchiolitis.

Aneurysms arising from the posterior circulation are relatively uncommon and are regarded as the most difficult aneurysms for surgical management because of its confined surgical space and complicated blood vessels around brain stem. Twenty cases of posterior circulation aneurysm were operated between Jan. 1984 and July, 1987. At the same period total surgically treated aneurysms were 181 cases. Among 20 cases, aneurysms at the basilar artery bifurcation were 12 cases, 4 cases at the SCA-basilar artery, 3 cases at the distal PICA and one case was at the PCA(P2-P3). Five patients had multiple aneurysms and one patient had concomitant arteriovenous malformation. For the operative management of these 20 cases, direct neck clipping was done in 16 cases and wrapping was done in 4 cases. Surgical outcome was evaluated: "good" in 10 cases, "fair" in 3 cases, "poor" in 6 cases and one patient expired. Surgical consideration of posterior circulation aneurysms was also disussed on the basis of personal experience.
