A case of a clinical syndrome of selective hereditary complete IgA deficiency with partial T-lymphocyte inactivation is reported. A 14 year old boy was admitted with chjef complaint of persistent wide shallow ulcerated non-vesicular patches on the skin folds of whole body, chronic upper respiatory infections and gastointestinal upsets. General appearance showed us as if the undemourished or malabsorption status had been accompanied. The duration of illness was about 10 years under the incorrect or mistaken diagnosis and skin lesions have incompletely responded to the treatment. Peripheral T-lymphocyte determination was carried out by the method of Wybran to be tumed out active T-cell 14%, total T-cell 48%. Tuberculin test showed negative with 5 TU. Immunoglobulin values were respectively as follows: IgG 325 mg%, IgM 60 mg%, and IgA trace. And we diagnosed this case as selective IgA defiency with partial T-lymphocyte inactivation. We started the immunochemotherapy with tuberculo-protein complex, Tubercin-3 and antibictics for 2 months. After 2 months with above regimen. the skin lesions were markedly improved. T-cell count also retumed to the normal limit(active 35%, total 59%) and levels of TgG and IgM raised(IgG 617.5 mg%, IgM 75mg%), but IgA still showed trace amount, Tuberculin test tumed out positive.

The ankle is an important joint supporting the entire musculoskeletal system during standing and walking. Current opinion has emphasized necessity of anatomical reduction and rigid internal fixation for a displaced or unstable fracture of the ankle. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation of the adequate surgical operative methods and postoperative care with prognosis. The authors analysed 104 cases of ankle fracture, treated operatively in Department of Orthopedic Surgery of Dae-Han Hospital from January 1991 to December 1994, followed up more than one year. The results were as follows: 1. According to the classification of Lauge-Hansen and Danis-Weber, the most common type was supination-external rotation and type B, respectively. 2. The most common cause of injury was slip down and the others were traffic accident, fall down and direct trauma. 3. According to the criteria of Meyer, the result of treatment was good or excellent in 94 cases (90.4%) radiologically and in 91 cases (87.5%) clinically. 4. The complications were 5 cases of traumatic arthritis, 3 cases of malunion, 2 cases of non-union and 1 case of infection. 5. The early ROM exercise after accurate reduction and rigid internal fixation was very important in treatment of fracture of the ankle.

We studied retrospectively twenty-nine operations for removal of loose bodies from the knee under arthroscopic control from August, 1982 to Mach, 1985. We succed to remove loose bodies arthroscopically in 24 knees, but failed in 5 knees. The loose bodies were not visible radiologically in 12knees, and more than one loose body was present in 10 knees. The loose bodies, above Smm in diameter among the removed, were forty three; their mean diameter was 7.5mm and the most large one was 35 mm in diameter. The loose bodies were found most commonly from intercondylar notch area and the most common associated internal derangements was meniscal injury. The mean time for return to work was 2.5weeks(range 1 to 4.5weeks). The operation required considerable arthroscopic expertise and could be technically more exacting than other artroscopic procedures. After average two years and four months follow-up(range one year and five months to three years and eleven months), pain on knee joint was remained in five patients who had taken other associated derangement in same knee, but the patients who had loose bodies in knee joint as only problems were cured completely to normal knee joint function.

To evaluate the reproducibility of the Ambulatory Electrocardiography (AECG), we examined the consistency rates of premature beats between the baseline AECG's and the repeat AECG's in 23 patients who underwent AECG's times within 1 year. 12 patients were male and 11 patients were female. Their mean age was 48 years. (Range ; 20 years-75 years) The time interval between both AECG's was 1 month 20 days. (Range ; 1 day-9months) They did not take any antiarrhythmic druge during the observation period except 4 patients who were taking calcium channel blockers or beta receptor blockers for hypertensive heart disease or ischemic heart disease. The consistency rate of both frequency and complexity of ventricular premature beats was 52%. The consisency rate of both frequency and complexity of supraventicular premature beats was 35%. These consistency rates seemed to vary as the time interval between both AECG's differed. In the case of ventricular premature beats, the consistency rates of 1 day, 8 days and 5 months as the time interval were 100%, 38% and 14% respectively. In the case of supraventricular premature beats, the consistency rates were 50%, 25% and 29%. We concluded that the reproducility of the AECG was low and this reproducibility became lower as the time interval between both AECG's became longer and that hese facts had to be considered when the effect of the antiarrhythmic drugs was evaluated.

10.The Distribution of Fibronectin in the Experimental Keratitis of Rabbit.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1987;28(2):319-326
The distribution of fibronection was investigated in the carrageenan-induced keratitis of rabbitis. Keratitis was induced by the injection of carrageenan into corneas of the rabbits, and specimens were taken at various intervals. Histological examinations were done with H and E, silver impregnation and PTAH stains. The distribution of fibronectin was observed by using avidin-biotin-peroxydase(ABC) technique. The results were follow. 1. The histological changes in early stages showed acute inflammatory exudate in stroma. After two weeks, granulation tissues were formed. And then after the fourth week, the granulation tissues began to mature with the apperance of fascicle of collagen fibers and thickened epithelium. 2. Fibronectin was demonstrated in a fibrillar appearance in the acute inflammatory exudate of the stroma, which was normally absent. With the development of chronic inflammatory lesions and granulation tissues, the amount of fibronectin was increased, relative to the increase and codistribution of reticular fibers, but with the appearance of mature collagen fibers, the amount was markedly reduced. 3. The fibronectin which was absent in the normal epithelium was prominent in the regenerating epithelium.
