PURPOSE: To assess the usefulness of two spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) instruments (Cirrus(R), Spectralis(R)) for evaluating optic nerve head and peripapillary structures. METHODS: Images of optic nerve complex were obtained from 136 eyes of 136 patients using enhanced depth imaging technique of 2 SD-OCT instruments. Optic nerve head and peripapillary structures were investigated for their visibility and morphological features in total eyes and glaucomatous eyes. Effect factors for laminar thickness measurement were evaluated and the reproducibility of the lamina cribrosa thickness measured by the 2 OCT instruments was analyzed. RESULTS: Lamina cribrosa thickness was better identified using Spectralis(R) OCT in total and glaucomatous eyes. Short posterior ciliary artery (in total eyes) and peripapillary choroid (in total and glaucomatous eyes) were also better identified using Spectralis(R) OCT (p < 0.001). A cup-disc ratio < or = 0.6 was the significant effect factor for laminar thickness measurement (p < 0.05). Interobserver reproducibility was excellent using both OCT instruments. Intraobserver reproducibility was excellent using Spectralis(R) OCT and moderate using Cirrus(R) OCT. CONCLUSIONS: Spectralis(R) OCT was better for visualizing optic nerve head and peripapillary structures and showed better reproducibility than Cirrus(R) OCT. Thus, the Spectralis(R) may be helpful for detecting and understanding features of the optic nerve complex.

4.The Role of Prostaglandins in Surgically Induced Miosis.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1991;32(11):964-969
In cataract surgery, the surgically induced miosis complicate the removal of lens materials and implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens, which increase the risk of ocular trauma and its associated complication. The refore maintenance of mydriasis during cataract syrgery makes the operation easier and brings a good results. This study was performed in rabbit and human eyes to assess the role of the prostaglandins in surgically induced miosis by observing the reduction of pupillary constriction and by measuring the amount of prostaglandins in aqueous humor when the 1.0% suprofen, cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, was used, and to assess the effect of suprofen in intraocular pressure. In the results, suprofen inhibits syrgically induced miosis (p value: <0.01, human <0.01) without intraocular pressure change, and for this miosis, prostaglans and for this miosis, prostaglandins are at least partially responsible.

A total of 48 subjects harbouring Trichuris trichiura, Ascaris lumbricoides, hookworm and/or Enterobius vermicularis were treated with oxantel/pyrantel pamoate tablets (100 mg of each) in a single dose of 20 mg base per kg of body weight. In all 37 cases of A. lumbricoides and 8 cases of A. duodenale infections cured completely, and the mean recovered worm-load was 3.8 with a range of 1-21 and 5.8 with a range of 3-9 respectively. In T. trichiura infection, 32(71.1%) of 45 cases cured completely and the average egg reduction rate was 90.8 per cent. The mean recovered worm-load was 14.6 with a rnage of 1-77 worms. On the other hand, in E. vermicularis infection, 37 (84.1 %) of 44 patients were negative eggs by anal swab tests on the 10 to 11th days and 27 (61.4%) on the 20 to 21st days after treatment. The mean recovered worm-load was 17.7 with a range of 1-62. Only one patient with Trichostrongylus orientalis treated with this drug showed no eggs in his stools throughout the post-treatment examinations. Side effects were not noted in all treated cases. These findings demonstrate that a single dose of oxantel/pyrantel pamoate tablets can be considered a drug of choice for multiple infections with these nematodes.

A total of 56 subjects with multiple nematode infections with T. trichiura, Ascaris, hookworms and Enterobius were treated with oxantel and pyrantel pamoate mixture in a paratable suspension(50 mg of each per ml). A single dose of 10 mg per kg body weight in each cured 100 per cent of 54 subjects with Ascaris, 97.1 per cent of 35 subjects with hookworms, 77.8 per cent of 36 with Enterobius and 73.2 per cent of 56 subjects with T. trichiura infestation. The mean egg per gram stool reduction rate in T. trichiura infection was 91.9%. Of the 31 subjects infected with Ancylostoma doudenale 96.8% were cured with a single dose and 4 infected with Necator americanus showed a 100% cure rate with a similar daily dose on 3 consecutive days. Side effects were few and mild. There was no clinical or laboratory evidence of drug toxicity. These findings show a single dose of oxantel and pyrantel pamoate mixture to be a highly effective and acceptable treatment for multiple infections with these nematodes.

7.Endoscopic Internal Urethrotomy in the Management of Urethral Strictures.

Korean Journal of Urology 1985;26(6):677-681
Endoscopic internal urethrotomy was done on 25 patients with urethral strictures. Of these patients 24 have been followed for 3 to 22 months. Satisfactory results were obtained in 56 per cent of the patients. The overall morbidity rate was 18 per cent, but potency was not endangered. Patients with long and multiple strictures caused by trauma had unstatisfactory results, while the duration of catheterization did not affect the results. Most recurrent strictures manifested themselves within 3 months. Despite these less successful results endoscopic internal urethrotomy, which is usually performed at hand, should be tried as a primary procedure except for complete ruptures or destruction of segments of the urethra, in which cases open reconstructive perineal urethroplasty is our procedure of choice.

The idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) represents a heterogenous group of disorder characterized by prolonged eosinophilia of undetectable cause and multiorgan system dysfunction. Bone marrow is the most frequentry involved organ, but the most severe clinicopathologic involvement is heart. The major cause of death in patients with the HES is cardiac dysfunction especially congestive heart failure resulted from endocardial fibrosis and restrictive cardiomyopathy. We have experienced a case of DES with both cardiac and pulmonary involvements. The patient was an 18-month-old infant with poorly controlled lung abscess who complained of fever and productive cough. On the microscopic examination of pleural effusion, eosinophilic infiltration was noted. M-mode echocardiogram showed diffuse thickening of interventricular septum and left ventricular posterior wall. On the peripheral blood smear, prolonged eosinophilia was observed. We confirmed this case with bone marrow aspiration which showed eosinophilic hyperplasia.

Herein we analyze retrospectively 21 patients with stage D prostatic adenocarcinoma admitted to our hospital during the period from January 1980 through December 1985. Of the 40 patients who had prostatic adenocarcinoma, 21 (50%) patients were classified as stage D. The presenting symptoms were prostatism (10), urinary retention (6), gross hematuria (2), lumbago (2) and pathologic bone fracture (1). Of the 21 patients, 15 (71%,) patients had elevated enzymatic acid phosphatase levels and 7 patients had distant metastases. Stage D prostatic carcinoma was subclassified as stage D
