Atrial septal defect is one of the most common congenital heart diseases in adult, of which absolute causes is not confirmed, but explained by multifactorial inheritance. In Korea, there has been no case report of atrial septal defect in identical twins in spite of some reports of atrial septal defect in relatives and twins in other countries. We present a first case of atrial septal defect in identical twins whose mother had no infection or medication history during pregnancy.

Since there is no report of daily walking activity of Korean, authors studied on normal adult daliy walking activity in korean of various kinds of occupation, personal life and patients. Total 134 cases were studied and in which there were 10 patients, 7 retired elderlies, 4 house wives, 48 employees of compaines, 30 nurses, 4 laboratory technicians, 2 pharmacists, 7 house staff doctors, 12 chief doctors, 4 cases of hicking and 6 cases of 18 holes golf players. The daily walking steps were measured with pedometer in 167 times in total and following results were, obtained. 1. Bed rest patients ; less than 1000 steps/day 2. Retired elderly ; 2,724(2,150-3,500) steps/day 3. House wife ; 5,437(3,030-7,920) steps/day 4. High ranking, old clerk and chief doctor ; 5,000-6,000 steps/day 5. Ordinary non-active clerk and non-clerk employee ; 6,000-9,000 steps/day 6. common young active clerk and nurse ; 10,000-15,000 steps/day 7. Very active clerk and non-clerk employee ; 15,000(13,000-20,000) steps/day 8. Heavy worker ; more than 20,000 steps/day

A case report of a 60 year-old man with lichen aureus of leg is presented. Clinically the solitary golden to purple colored patch consists of lichenoid papules, plsque, and mild petechiae around the lesion, and the histology reveals a dense and bandlike infiltrate hugging thepidermis. It consists of lymphocytes, histiocytes, eosinophils, and many extravasated erythrocytes and hemosiderin in dermis, but a few red cells and increased melanin pigment can also be seen in the epidermis. The eruption is mildly itchy and has been present 6 months.

Fifteen women with symptomatic uterine myomas, diagnosed by clinical examination and confirmed by pelvic ultrasonography, were treated with intranasal insufflation of Nafarelin acetate, 200 micrograms, twice a day, for a total treatment period of 6 months. Treatment was evaluated with respect to subjective symptoms, changes in myoma size and uterine volume, variations in blood estradiol, FSH, LH and CA 125, and side effects. The following results were obtained: 1. All patients showed a marked reduction(p<0.001) in uterine volume. Before treatment volume measured 312.3+/-24.2cm3, after 12 weeks volume was 132.4+/-40.6cm3, and after 24 weeks it was 123.6+/-48.3cm3. 2. Blood estradiol and LH levels were decreased significantly(p<0.05) after treatment. The FSH level was decreased, but not significantly. 3. Blood CA 125 levels were increased 6 cases(40.0%) before treatment. The levels were normalized in all 6 cases after treatment. 4. Symptoms of uterine myoma disappeared or decreased. 5. Minor side effects, such as hot flushes, headache, general myalgia and fatigue, and vaginal dryness were encountered frequently although none necessitating discontinuation of treatment, These data suggest that Nafarelin acetate is useful for the treatment of uterine myoma. However, appropriate indications should be selected in the treatment of uterine myoma because the possible regrowth of uterine myoma after treatment limits the use of GnRH agonist.

Recent technological advances in ultrasound instrumentation have resulted in equipment that will image in "real-time" slices of the human brain similar in quality to computerized tomography(CT). Multiple authors have attested to its usefulness in locatin, characterizing, and facilitating in the biopsy or removal, or both, of intracerebral masses. In this study, the author has examined the efficacy of intraoperative neurosurgical ultrasound in 18 patients who were admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery, Kyung Hee University Hospital. The results were as follows : 1) It can provide critical assistance in precise localization of subcortical masses, since in many instances the overlying surface of brain provides no clue for localization. 2) This technique is very useful for the identificantion of deep lesions, provding infromation about their solid and cystic components and about the shortest route of access to tumor. 3) It provides precise information to help guide biopsy needles into deep lesions, and to confirm their presence within the lesion itself. 4) The system is highly accurate in visualizing ventricular catheters during and after their placement. 5) The system is inherently safe for the patient and the operating room personnel since there is no radiation exposure.
