The management of the femoral neck fractures remains a major challenge to the orthopaedic surgeons because there are many critical complications such as non-union and avasular necrosis in spite of the advanced technics of treatment. The posterior comminution of this fracture is known to be an important comtributing factor of these complications as the most important cause of the instalility of reduction after internal fixation as well as difficulty of stable reduction, Authors reviewed 61 cases of the femoral neck fractures which were able to identify the presence or absence of posterior comminution on x-ray or operative findings and were managed at Daegu Fatima Hospital during the 10 years from 1975 to 1984 and the following results were obtained. 1. The incidence of posterior comminution in 61 femoral neck fractures was 56% in x-rays of lateral view and operative findings. 2. Open reductions were performed in 31% of 39 cases in which reductions were necessary for internal fixation and 43% of the fractures with posterior comminution were unstable to reduce by closed method while 88% of the fractures without postrior comminution were reduced by closed method. 3. The positions of reductio were in valgus in 46% and anatomic in the rest of cases and valgus reductions were more common in the cases of posterior comminution. 4. Loss of the reduction after internal fixation noted in 48% of the fractures with posterior comminution and 9% without posterior comminution. 5. 77% of the fractures united including 14% of mal-union and the late complication of non-union noted in 14% and avascular necroris in 9% in 35 cases which were followed for over 1 year. 6. The normal unions were more common in the fractures without posterior comminution, the cases of open reduction and the reduction in valgus position. 7. Most of the mal-unions and non-unions noted in the fractures with posterior comminution, the cases of closed reduction and the reduction in anatomic position. 8. These results suggest that the posterior comminution of the femoral neck fracture causes considerable instability and the better results could be expected in the femoral neck fractures with posterior comminution by the reduction in valgus and by the open reduction if necessary.

Shiitake (Lentinus edodes) is a kind of mushroom which is cooked and eaten as a food in Chinese, Japanese and Korean meals. It is nowadays the second most commonly produced edible mushroom in the world. In 1985, a case characterized by itchy skin eruptions after the ingestion of raw shiitake mushrooms was reported and was termed as toxicodermia. Here we report five cases of shiitake dermatitis which developed after ingestion of raw or cooked shiitake mushrooms. All patients complained of severe itching and showed linear grouped erythematous papules after scratching(Kobner phenomenon). To our knowledge, this is the first report of shiitake dermatitis in the Korean literature.

The efficacy and the adverse effects of intravenous iron formulas have been well established. However, there are few reports of anaphylaxis of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM). A man received intravenous FCM for the treatment of restless legs syndrome. The FCM gave rise to angioedema, urticaria, chest tightness, sinus tachycardia, and hypotension. In the end, epinephrine and dexamethasone resolved the symptoms. The findings were consistent with anaphylactic hypersensitivity reaction from FCM. We need to be careful when we administer FCM in clinics.

Myoepitheliomas of salivary gland occur infrequently and are generally benign. Malignant myoepitheliomas of salivary gland are extremely rare tumor, and increasing number of case reports have shown that malignant myoepitheliomas may either arise de novo or develop in a pre-existing pleomorphic adenoma. In our case, myoepitheliomas was located in the parotid gland, and tumor cells displayed morphological features of spindle & epithelioid cells. Their clinical behavior by literature seems variable. This case dealt with malignant myoepithelioma of the parotid gland in a 65-year-old man with a relatively favourable course, and was followed up for 2 years and 5 months. In addition, this case illustrates some of the characteristic clinical and pathological features of this rare tumor.

The congenital absence of the major salivary glands is an uncommon disorder, although it is not always symptomatic. Their etiopathogenesis is poorly understood. Aplasia of the salivary glands may occur either in isolation or in association with other developmental abnormalities. Some authors have reported familial salivary gland aplasia. Aplasia may be partial or total. Severely affected patients suffer from dry mouth and an increased rate of dental decay. Following clinical exclusion of the cause of these symptoms, the diagnosis of submandibular gland aplasia can be confirmed by computed tomography and a Tc-99m pertechnate scintiscan. The authors experienced a case of incidentally detected, unilateral submandibular glandular aplasia in a 38-year old female. So we present this case with review of literatures.

PURPOSE: We evaluated the bleeding volume after surgery for trochanteric fractures of the femur in patients treated with antiplatelet agents according to surgical timing. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We selected 20 patients who had trochanteric fractures of the femur treated with antiplatelet agents from January 2009 to June 2010. Group I included 9 patients who discontinued antiplatelet medication and had delayed operations at an average of 6.5 days and Group II included 11 patients who underwent early operations within 24 hours. Group I included 2 males and 7 females; their average age was 77.8 years (range 59~86). Group II included 4 males and 7 females, with an average age of 73.5 years (range 61~84). We compared the two groups' volume of intraoperative bleeding, the preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin levels and the volume of postoperative transfusion. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: The volume of intraoperative bleeding was 88 ml in group I and 106 ml in group II (p>0.01). The difference in the hemoglobin was a decrease of 2.4 mg% in group I and a decrease of 2.2 mg% in group II (p>0.01). The volume of postoperative transfusion was 0.6 pints in group I and 1 pint in group II (p>0.01). CONCLUSION: We found a similar bleeding volume regardless of operative timing after surgery for trochanteric fractures of the femur in patients treated with antiplatelet agents.

Tuberculosis originating in the skull bone is rare. We report a case of skull bone tuberculosis. A 72 year-old female was referred to us because of headache, swelling and tenderness in the left parietal area. She has been treated interstitial pulmonary fibrosis and pleural effusion at the department of internal medicine. Plain skull X-ray and CT scan revealed a 1.5x1.5 cm sized osteolytic lesion in the left parietal bone. Bone scan demonstrated a lesion of hot uptake in the left parietal region. After a left parietal craniotomy was performed, the involved bone flap and granulation tissue that attached to the dura mater were removed. Pathologic findings showed granulomatous inflammation with central caseous necrosis and peripheral collar of epithelioid cell interspersed with lymphocytes. A brief review of the literature was given.

A retrospective study of 135 injured cervical spine patients who admitted to Soonchunhyang University Hospital between Jan 1, 1989 and May 31, 1994 was conducted. The major results were as follows: 1) The incidence was highest in fourth decade and average age was 39 years old. The ratio of male to female was 3.5:1. 2) Traffic accident(67%) was the most common cause of cervical spine injury, and passenger car accident(55%) was the most frequent cause among them. 3) In 111 patients, 141 cases of radiographic abnormalities were found and vertebral body fracture(57%) was the most common lesion among them. SCIWORA(spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality) patients were seven. High cervical spine(C1-2) injury was 36 cases (26%) and lower cervical spine(C3-7) injury was 105 cases(74%). The most common involved level of injured vertebrae was C2(23%) followed by C5(22%), C6(20%). The anterior dislocation of body was more common than the posterior one, and C5-6 dislocation was the most common among them. The compressive flexion(40%) and distractive flexion(29%) injuries were more common among types of the lower cervical injuries. 4) The associated injuries were head injury, long bone fracture, chest injury, visceral injury and mutiple contusion & laceration, and head injury was the most common among them. 5) According to Franekel's grade, the rates of neurologic improvement were 23%, 47% and 14% in total cases, operated and non-operated patients respectively. There was statistical significance in the difference between the improvement of Frankel's grade of operated and those of non-operated patients(p<0.02). 6) In 101 patients(75%) conservative treatment was performed. Of 34 patients(25%) were operated, 23 patients were performed anterior approach and 11 were done posterior approach. 7) The common complications were respiratory disorder, bed sore, and urinary tract infection, in order of frequency and the rate of complication was 33%. 8) Mortality rate during hospitalization was 5%, and the common causes were pneumonia and septicemia.
