Genu recurvatum deformity of the knee can be due to the deformity of the bone of the proximal end of the tibia or to the changes in the soft tissues, or both. The causes of acquired genu recurvatum include trauma, wire traction of the tibia, operative procedures involving the proximal tibial physis, Osgood-Schlatter's disease, osteomyelitis and prolonged immobilization. The most frequent symptoms of genu recurvatum are weakness, pain and instability of the knee, genu valgus, and shortening of the affected lower extremity. Operative treatment consists of tibial osteotomy and soft tissue procedures performed on the capsule and ligaments, and recently percutaneous corticotomy of the proximal tibia and gradual correction by the Ilizarov external fixator became one of the treatment modalities. From Nov. 1990 to June 1993, the authors have performed gradual correction by the Ilizarov external fixator in 6 patients of genu recurvatum and the results were as follows. 1. The mean age was 14 years ranging from 11 to 21. And there were 2 males and 4 females. 2. In the past history, there were ipsilateral femur fractures in 5 cases in which 4 cases were treated with skeletal pin traction on the proximal tibia, and one case had ipsilateral open tibiofibular fracture. 3. After Ilizarov external fixation, proximal tibial corticotomy just inferior to the tibial tuberosity were performed in all 6 cases. 4. The follow up period was 19 months in average. 5. The results were evaluated according to a scoring system that was suggested by Lecuire et al.: 2 cases were excellent, 3 cases were good and 1 case was fair. 6. Ilizarov gradual correction was very effective not only in the treatment of genu recurvatum but also in the concurrent correction of limb length inequality and mechanical axis deviation of the lower extermity.

Severe sepsis and septic shock are the main causes of death in critically ill patients. Early detection and appropriate treatment according to guidelines are crucial for achieving favorable outcomes. Endotoxin is considered to be a main element in the pathogenic induction of gram-negative bacterial sepsis. Polymyxin B hemoperfusion can remove endotoxin and is reported to improve clinical outcomes in patients with intra-abdominal septic shock, but its clinical efficacy for pneumonic septic shock remains unclear. Here, we report a case of a 51-year-old man with pneumonic septic shock caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, who recovered through polymyxin B hemoperfusion.

Solitary rectal ulcer syndrome (SRUS) is an uncommon benign disease that is misdiagnosed as malignancy or inflammatory bowel disease because of similarities in clinical and endoscopic manifestations. Furthermore, SRUS with ulcerative colitis (UC) is extremely rare. To date, two cases have been reported in the medical literature. We report an additional case of SRUS with UC that was misdiagnosed as rectal cancer. A 61-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with rectal bleeding. Colonoscopy showed a well-demarcated, shallow, ulcerative lesion with polypoidal growth involving the entire circumference of the rectal lumen. Findings from imaging studies, including abdominal computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT resembled those of rectal cancer. Surgical resection was performed because clinical symptoms persisted despite medical treatment and because occult rectal cancer could not be ruled out. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen revealed fibromuscular obliteration of the lamina propria and crypt abscesses, characteristics compatible with SRUS and UC.

The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of a Korean form of Childhood Attention Problem(CAP) scale. CAP were administered to 98 normal elementary school students as control group and 98 attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patients. Male students showed high scores than female students in both subscale and total scores, but not statistically significant. There were no significant difference in CAP scale between male students and female students in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patients. In the reliability test, the test-retest reliability coefficient was highly satisfactory and that of inattention subscale was 0.83, impulsivity subscale was 0.70 and total score was 0.82. In the reliability test by internal consistency, the Cronbach a coefficient was highly satisfactory and that of inattention subscale was 0.91, overactivity subscale was 0.89(p<0.05). The concurrent validity between CAP scale and ADDES-HV scale was 0.85 in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient group and 0.73 in normal control group(p<0.05). In discriminant validity test between attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient group and normal control group, the patient group showed higher score(p<0.05). The total discriminant capacity of the patient group in CAP was 93.4%. In this point of view, CAP scale showed high reliability and validity in applying to Korean subjects and was proved to be the good and simple screening test tool for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder research and can help many young patient to treat early.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is rarely encountered during pregnancy but its prompt diagnosis and treatment if encountered during pregnancy is important because it can carry considerable morbidity not only for the mother but also for the fetus. It tends to remain undiagnosed because 50~80% of the patients are asymptomatic. Even if they do demonstrate symptoms, those are often nonspecific. The other reason for non-diagnosis is masking of hypercalcemia due to the change of calcium homeostasis during pregnancy. Neonatal tetany can be a clue for the presence and diagnosis maternal hyperparathyroidism. The asymptomatic patient who is diagnosed postpartum when her newborn is symptomatic should undergo elective parathyroidectomy to avoid future complication. We experienced a woman with undiagnosed primary hyperparathyroidism during pregnancy whose two children suffered neonatal tetany. We report this case along with a review of literature on primary hyperparathyroidism in pregnancy and calcium homeostasis during pregnancy.

The anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the main pulmonary artery has been rarely reported. We report a 63-year-old male with angina pectoris who was shown to have an anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the main pulmonary artery. The abnormal origin was identified by conventional coronary angiography, but the abnormal course of the artery was precisely delineated by high resolution multi-slice computerized tomography. The patient underwent successful surgical correction of the anomalous vessel with complete resolution of symptoms.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the changes in mammographic density by different types of hormone replace therapy (HRT) in postmenopausal women. METHODS: A total of 150 postmenopausal women who received same HRT regimen for 1 year were classified as the four groups according to the regimen of HRT; 1) daily conjugated equine estrogen (CEE) 0.625 mg+medroxiprogesterone acetate (MPA) 2.5 mg (CEE/MPA-continuous, n=42), 2) daily CEE 0.625 mg+MPA 10 mg on days 1-12 (CEE/MPA-cyclic, n=28), 3) daily CEE 0.625 mg (CEE only, n=40), 4) daily tibolone 2.5 mg (Tibolone, n=40). And 40 women were allocated as control group. The changes in mammographic density in each group were compared with before and after HRT for 1 year. RESULTS: The increase in mammographic density after 1 year of HRT was significantly higher in CEE/MPA-continuous group and CEE/MPA-cyclic group compaired with control group (p<0.05), and was not observed in CEE only group and tibolone group. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that greater increase of mammographic density in postmenopausal women was significantly associated with estrogen/progestin combination therapy.
