A 43-year-old male patient showed well defined, irregular, dark eythematous, thick plaque and tumor with ulceration on the right chest, right axilla, pubis and scrotum, Histopathological findings rervealed atypical lymphocytes showing epidermotrophism and heavy infiltrations in the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. The infiltrative cells were positively stained with leukocyte common antigen and T-cell UCHL-1 antigen, but not with L26 antigen. This clinicohisto-pathological features were consstent with dermblade type of mycosis fungoides. The authors report clinicopathological findings of the case with its thrapeutic responses to systemic chemotherapy and radiation treatment.

While there is little controversy about the surgical resection for the torn discoid lateral meniscus, there are some contradictory reports for the treatment of discoid lateral meniscus without tear. Some authors argue that initial treatment should be observation after diagnostic arthroscopy in the cases without tear. Others reported that excellent results were obtained after partial resection of the discoid lateral meniscus without tear or with slight degeneration. We reviewed our series of symptomatic discoid lateral menisci without tear, confirmed by arthroscopic examination. We retrospectively reviewed 8 knees in 8 patients who had had partia! Meniscectomy for discoid latera1 meniscus without tear, confirmed by arthroscopic examination. They were 5 males and 3 females. The average age was 22.8 years (range, 7 to 57 years). The average duration of follow-up was 2 years and three months. The patients had continuing pain and locking or snapping preoperatively. Preoperative MRI had grade Il intrameniscal signal in all the cases. The patients were evaluated hy Lysholm pain score and total Lysholm score. There were 7 complete types and one incomplete type. The average Lysholm pain score and the total Lysholm score improved from 13.1, 67.8 preoperatively to 28.8. 97.9, at the last follow-up, respectively. Mechanical symptoms including click and 1ocking were disappeared in all, and no complication was obser ved. We suggest that symptomatic discoid lateral meniscus should he resected e.ven though there is no tear visible on arthroscopy, especially when the MRl shows grade lI intrameniscal signal.

The chest X-ray findings of 20 cases of pulmonary opportunistic infections were analyzed according tocausative agents. The results we as follows; 1. Final diagnoses of 20 cases of opportunistic infections weretuberculosis in 6 cases, pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in 5 cases, bacterial infection in 7 cases, and fungalinfection in 2 cases. 2. The underlying diseases were leukemia in 6 cases, kidney transplantation in 6 cases,lymphoma in 3 cases, nephrotic syndrome in 1 case, nasopharyngeal cancer in 1 case, multiple myeloma in 1 case,agranulocytosis in 1 case, and hypogammaglobulinemia in 1 case. 3. In tuberculosis, all the 6 cases showed severemanifestations such as miliary tuberculosis, tuberculous pneumonia, moderately advanced tuberculosis andtuberculous pericarditis. 4. In pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, the most frequent findings were bilateral alveolardensities and peripheral field of the lung was saved in most cases. 5. In 2 cases of fungal infections bilatarealmultiple cavitary nodules were noted. 6. In cases of bacterial infection there were more cases of gram negativeinfection than gram positive and 2 cases of pseudomonas revealed bilateral multiple cavitary nodules.

7.Transscaphoidal Dorsal Perilunar Dislocation Associated with Dislocation of Distal Radioulnar Joint: A Case Report.

Journal of the Korean Fracture Society 2014;27(1):77-81
Dorsal perilunar dislocations are rare traumatic entities. Associated fractures such as carpal bones and radial styloid processes can occur. However, the dorsal perilunar dislocation associated with dislocation of distal radioulnar joint is extremely rare. The authors herein report the case of a 34-year-old man who was presented with transscaphoidal perilunar dislocation which is associated with dislocation of distal radioulnar joint.

9.Diagnostic Value of Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of the Breast Mass.
Journal of the Korean Surgical Society 1999;56(6):777-783
BACKGROUND: Palpable breast tumors have traditionally been diagnosed with open biopsy. We propose fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology as a reliable, safe initial procedure in these patients. METHODS: We performed 248 fine needle aspiration cytologies of breast tumors during the period of from Jan. 1994 to Dec. 1997 at the Department of Surgery, Chonbuk National University Hospital, among which 106 cases were histologically examined. RESULTS: The main clinical symptom was a palpable mass on the breast at the time of the visit to our hospital. Clinical diagnosis based on symptoms and physical examination had a sensitivity of 96.9% and a specificity of 57.5%. Based on definite histologic diagnosis, the sensitivity of FNA cytology was 96.9%, the specificity 91.7%, and the diagnostic accuracy 93.5%. Of the cytologic malignancies, 86.1% were proven malignant histologically, and 100% of the cytologically benign cases turned out histologically benign. CONCLUSION: Fine needle aspiration cytology of solid, palpable breast lesions should be the diagnostic procedure of choice for those patients classified clinically as probably benign or clinically as malignant.

To determine the perinatal mortality and morbidity of fetuses with absent end-diastolic velocities (AEDV) of the umbilical artery in severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, the outcome of 5 fetuses with AEDV was compared with that of 35 fetuses with positive end-diastolic velocities (PEDV). The study population comprised 38 cases of severe pre-eclampsia and 2 cases of eclampsia with structurally normal singletons, who had had umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry weekly from admission to delivery. The Doppler velocimetry result was not used for the clinical management. Perinatal death and neonatal morbidity from both groups were further examined in gestational age category to control the influence of preterm births. The incidence of AEDV of the umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry in severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia was 12.5% (5/40). The AEDV group had a significantly higher incidence than the PEDV group in terms of ceasarean section due to fetal distress (60% : 17%), Apgar score < 7 at 5 minutes (60% : 14%), perinatal death (25% : 0%) and assisted mechanical ventilation (67% : 9%) both at 32-36 weeks. Time intervals from the detection of AEDV to delivery of live neonates varied from the day to 15 days. In conclusion, AEDV in the umbilical artery might be of clinical value in routine surveillance of pregnancies complicated by severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, and predict hypoxic fetal condition which needs operative interventions before or during labor and mechanical ventilation after birth.
