Though it is known that the concept of anatomy was introduced in the age of Three Kingdoms, anatomy in modern sense meaning was introduced in late Chosun Dynasty by western missionary doctors. From that time on the lecture of anatomy was not given by anatomist until early 1910s. The first Korean anatomist of medical school graduates was Choi Myung Hak, graduated from Severance Union Medical College(SUMC) in 1926. He was born in 1898 at Ham Heung(Ham Gyung Nam Do Province), and entered SUMC in 1922 and graduated in 1926. He was in charge of anatomy for two years after graduation, and then he went to Kyoto Imperial University Medical College(KIUMC) and researched under the direction of Dr. Ogawa in the field of experimental embryology and histology. He returned to Korea in 1930 and then became a lecturer in January 1931. His Doctorial thesis was receipted by KIUMC on April 18th 1932. So he became the first Korean Doctor of anatomy. He promoted to professor in February 1933. His publications can be seen in Folia Anatomica Japonica. In 1934 he became a councillor of the Japanese Association of Anatomist. He resigned SUMC because of some kind of problem of the school. From that time on Chung, Il-Chun who was appointed as a lecturer in 1934, was in charge of department of anatomy.

Lack of historical records causes some difficulties in the historical studies of ancient Korea. It is the same case as that of the history of medicine. We imagine what the situation of medicine was like in ancient Korea with a bit of historical records. In ancient times, medicine had very close relation with religions. In ancient Korea, it had very close relation with Buddhism. According to {Sam Kuk Sa Ki and {Sam Kuk Yu Sa buddhists monks treated patients with the religious rituals. In this article, the authors would like to present a record which had been unnoticed until now. It is the commentary of Wonhyo on a certain Buddhistic cannon called {Kum Kwang Myung Kyung. A chapter of this cannon is on the theory of medicine, causes of diseases and treatments. We can presume Wonhyo's knowledge of medicine at that time through his commentary on this chapter.

Phenylephrine hydrochloride has been widely used in ocular theraphy and examination, such as the treatment of uveitis and glaucoma and examination of the eye ground. In this study, mydriatic action of single instillation of 10% phenylephrine hydrochloride solution was compared with that of combined instillation of 10% phenylephrine hydrochloride solution and 0.5% tetracaine drops in 110 brown eyes. The following results were obtained; 1) In 55 eyes, the diameter of the pupil reached more than 7 mm about 45 minutes after instillation of 10% phenylephrine hydrochloride solution. 2) In case of combined instillation of 0.5% tetracaine solution and 10% phenylephrine hydrochloride solution, the onset of mydriasis was delayed. 3) In the case of combined instillation of 0.5% tetracaine and 10% phenylephrine hydrochloride solution with 5 and 10 minutes interval, the action of mydriasis was acceralated. 4) After tonometry, the action of mydriasis was more acceralated.

A mixture of phenoperidine and haloperidol with inhalation of nitrous oxide-oxygen has been used to provide general anesthesia for gynecologic operations' in seven patients. The method afforded excellent hypnosis and analgesia together with remarkably stable circulation both during operative and immediate postoperative period. For operations requiring muscular relaxation a neuromuscular blocking agent had to be added. No central nervous system reactions (Parkinson-like, akathisia and cystonia) of an extrapyramidal type have been observed in the series.
