BACKGROUND: To evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of arthroscopic-assisted reduction and percutaneous screw fixation for glenoid fractures with scapular extension, and investigate the radiologic and clinical benefits from the results. METHODS: We evaluated patients treated with arthroscopic-assisted reduction and percutaneous screw fixation for glenoid fractures with scapular extension from November 2008 to September 2015. Fractures with displacement exceeding one-fourth of the anterior-articular surface or more than one-third of the posterior-articular surface in radiographic images were treated by surgery. Clinical assessment was conducted based on range of motion, Rowe score, and Constant score of injured arm and uninjured arm at last follow-up. RESULTS: Fifteen patients with Ideberg classification grade III, IV, and V glenoid fracture who underwent arthroscopic-assisted reduction using percutaneous screw fixation were retrospectively enrolled. There were no differences in clinical outcomes at final follow-up compared to uninjured arm. Bone union was seen in all cases within five months, and the average time to bone union was 15.2 weeks. Ankylosis in one case was observed as a postoperative complication, but the symptoms improved in response to physical therapy for six months. There was no failure of fixation and neurovascular complication. CONCLUSIONS: We identified acceptable results upon radiological and clinical assessment for the arthroscopic-assisted reduction and percutaneous fixation. For this reason, we believe the method is favorable for the treatment of Ideberg type III, IV, and V glenoid fractures. Restoration of the articular surface is considered to be more important than reduction of fractures reduction of the scapula body.

A 24-year-old man visited our hospital with painless scrotal mass 2 weeks in duration. Physical examination revealed about 3cm in diameter, ovoid, hard, movable and painless mass in the left side of the scrotum. He had no history of trauma, voiding difficulty or infection sign. CBC, blood chemistry and tumor marker were normal. Left orchiectomy was done. Tumor was a well encapsulated white-gray ovoid mass filled with yellowish gray material and histogically diagnosed as epidermoid cyst. Benign tumors of testis are rare, acounting for less than 1% of all testicular tumors. Herein we report a case of epidermoid cyst of testis and review the literatures.

Myxoma is a relatively rare tumor of mesenchymal origin that can be found in numerous sites throughout the body including heart, skin, and subcutaneous tissue along with various sites in the head and neck. It is presumed to be originated from dental malformation or missing teeth, but occasionally myxoma without dental abnormalities is found giving arguments for its embryogenesis. Myxoma in the head and neck is usually managed by radical operation in order to prevent the possible recurrence. A case of recurrent myxoma of maxilla is described, which was treated with en-bloc removal via lateral rhinotomy incision. The purpose of this article is to present a case of myxoma of maxilla with a review of the literature and is to give a special emphasis on the proper modalities of treatment which minimizes recurrence and functional deficit.

Lymphangioma is a benign tumor composed of numerous small or large thin-walled lymphatic spaces. It shows a predilection for head, neck, and axilla. Jejunal lymphangioma in children is extremely rare. We present a case of 13-year-old girl with jejuno-jejunal intussusception secondary to lymphangioma in jejunum. To our knowledge, this is the second report of jejunal lymphangioma causing intussusception in a child.

A 57-year-old man with a long history of smoking was admitted because of a history of abdominal pain lasting 2 weeks. An endoscopy revealed advanced gastric cancer. Four days after a subtotal gastrectomy, his peripheral blood count showed pancytopenia and five percent immature cells. Diagnosis of acute myelocytic leukemia was made by bone marrow examination, cytochemistry, and immunophenotyping. Induction chemotherapy was started and complete remission was achieved. Three months later, the patient suffered a relapse of leukemia and died of pulmonary hemorrhage during reinduction chemotherapy.

Anomalous origin of coronary artery is a relatively rare disordes which is often associated with hypertension and valvular geart desease and in some instances lead to sudden death.Among 1,100 patients who underwent diagnosis coronary angiography at Yonsei Uiversity Medical Center, severance hospital, we found 2 patients with anomalous aortic origin of coronary arteries.In one patient, single coronary artery originated from ascending aorta 1.5cm above the left aortic sinus and in another patient, the origin of the orifice of the right coronary artery separately from the left aortic sinus.

Angiosarcoma is a rare primary malignancy occurring anywhere in the body, but most often in the skin, liver or breast. The radiological findings of angiosarcoma of the breast have rarely been reported. We encountered a case in which the condition involved a 32-year-old woman in whom mammography revealed a obscuved-marginated and lobular-shaped high-density lesion, and ultrasonography demonstrated an ovalshaped, microlobular-marginated, inhomogenous hypoechoic mass which metastasized to the whole body after surgery. We report the radiological findings of this case of angiosarcoma of the breast, and review the literature.

We studied 28 eyes presenting with subretinal neovascular membrane by means of clinical evaluation and fluorescein angiography. Each patient was an adult under 50 years of age. None of the patients were treated with laser photocoagulation or operation. The patients included 7 males(9 eyes) and 17 females(19 eyes). Idiopathic subretinal neovascular membrane was noted in 71.4% and myopic subretinal neovascular membrane in 28.6%. Visual acuity at the first visit was from finger count to 20/25. Visual acuity of 19 eyes(67.9%) was above 20/100. In 62.5% of the cases, the size of the lesion was less than half the diameter of the disc. Subfoveal type was noted in 75.0%. Visual acuity was maintained or improved in 75.0% and decreased in 25.0%. The subretinal neovscular membranes in patients who were under 50 years of age were mostly small and idiopathic, and located at the subfovea. These patients had good visual acuity compared to patients with subretinal neovascular membrane secondary to age-related macular degeneration.
