BACKGROUND: This study was designed to investigate the relationship between psychiatric disease and systemic disease in geriatric psychiatric inpatients who were consulted to department of internal medicine and were above 6th decade, and was directed to assess the physical problems and possible ways to resolve them in a closed psychiatric unit. METHOD: Through evaluation of medical records of 225 inpatients who had consulted in department of internal medicine in Seoul National Mental Hospital from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 1999. We classified the physical illness according to ICD-9-CM and psychiatric disease according to NTA. RESULTS: The result were as follows: 1) In age sex distribution, male was 62.7%, and 81.8% of the subjects was 6th decade. 2) The most common systemic diagnosis were disease of circulatory system, disease of digestive system, and disease of respiratory system. 3) The most systemic disease was disease of circulatory system in 6th and 8th decade. 4) Disease of circulatory system in all psychiatric disease was the most frequent. 5) Rate of circulatory disorder was the highest in organic mental disorder. Disease of digestive system and disease of endocrine system were the most frequent in alcoholics. Disease of respiratory system showed the highest rate in schizophrenea. CONCLUSION: The clinical characteristics of psychiatric diseases influenced to get systemic disease in geriatric patients.

Lipoma arborescens is a rare intra-articular lesion consisting of a villous lipomatous proliferation of the synovial lining. We experienced one case of lipoma arborescens of knee which was associated with avascular necrosis of femoral head. This case report draws the attention to history, physical findings, MR images, pathologic findings and arthroscopic appearance of this rare lesion. Arthro;copically, the lesion appears as a synovial lesion with numerous fatty-appearing globules and villous projections. Although the etiology is unknown, lipoma arborescens has been described in association with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes mellitus. MR imaging is diagnostic choice to differentiate the lesion from rheumatoid arthritis, pigmented villonodular synovitis and synovial chondromatosis in those patients who present with chronic, swollen and painfui joint. Arthroscopic removal was effective in this case and we think that treatment choice of this lesion is arthroscopic removal.

The Fracture of the os calcis is quite common in relation to fracture in other tarsal bone, and fractures involving the subtalar joint may cause serious and persistant disabilities. The treatment of these calcaneal fractures remains controversial So there is no universal agreement in the treatment of these fractures, especially involving the subtalar joint. Twenty displaced intraarticular fractures of calcaneus in 15 patients were treated by open reduction and internal fixation with a plate and screws and bone graft through a lateral approach to elevate the depressed lateral portion of the posterior facet at the Inchon Chritian Hospital from Jan., 1990 to Dec, 1991. Twenty feet in 15 patients of calcaneal fractures involving the subtalal joint were treated and were clinically analysed and following result were obtained. 1. The 20 cases were classified according to the Sanders classification, 9 in type II, 9 in type III and 2 in type IV. 2. The 20 cases were treated by open reduction andinteranl fixation with plate and screws and iliac bone graft through an Sanders lateral approach. The bone graft is packed under the elevated posterior to prevent late collapse of the central fragment and to supply structral stability. 3. The preoperative average Böhler's angle was 0.4°. The post operative average Böhler's angle was 23.4° which was increased significantly. 4. Based on assessment of result of Salama, excellenwas 6, good was 7, fair was 4 and poor was 3. 5. The most common complication after treatment was persistant pain, especially beneath the lateral malleolus.

BACKGROUND: The study aimed to determine the type of capsular insertion and the extent of capsular elongation in anterior shoulder instability by quantitatively evaluating their computed tomography arthrographic (CTA) findings, and to investigate the correlation of these parameters with surgical outcomes. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 71 patients who underwent CTA and arthroscopic capsulolabral reconstruction for anterior shoulder instability between April 2004 and August 2008. The control group comprised 72 patients diagnosed as isolated type II superior labrum anterior to posterior (SLAP) lesion during the period. Among the 143 patients, 71 were examined with follow-up CTA at an average 13.8 months after surgery. It was measured the capsular length and cross-sectional area at two distinct capsular regions: the 4 and 5 o'clock position of the capsule. RESULTS: With regards to the incidence of the type of anterior capsular insertion, type I was more common in the control group, whereas type III more common than in the instability group. Anterior capsular length and cross-sectional area were significantly greater in the instability group than in the control group. Among patients of the instability group, the number of dislocations and the presence of anterior labroligamentous periosteal sleeve avulsion lesion were significantly associated with anterior capsular redundancy. Postoperatively, recurrence was found in 3 patients (4.2%) and their postoperative capsular length and cross-sectional area were greater than those of patients without recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Capsular insertion type and capsular redundancy derived through CTA may serve as important parameters for the management of anterior shoulder instability.

Bone marrow edema syndrome (BMES) is a rare condition which mainly affects the hip area. The etiology and pathogenesis of BMES is still unclear. Pain near the affected area, regional osteoporosis, bone marrow edema (identified using magnetic resonance imaging) and spontaneous regression within 6-12 months are the main characteristics of BMES. In this case, a 52-year-old male was diagnosed with BMES of the right hip followed by spontaneous subsiding of symptoms. After 3 years, and under nearly the same social and physical conditions, he was admitted again with newly developed left hip pain and again diagnosed with BMES. We report this rare case since a similar one has not been previously reported in the domestic literature and may be considered valuable for basic research relating to the pathogenesis of BMES.

BACKGROUND: The immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) criteria were newly standardized by the International Working Group. Thus, we analyzed the natural course of childhood chronic ITP to predict the prognosis based on the revised criteria. METHODS: The medical records of children with chronic ITP from May 2000 to February 2013 in our institute were reviewed. RESULTS: Forty-seven children with chronic ITP who were not undergoing corticosteroid therapy were included. Their initial platelet count was 23+/-25x10(9)/L, and age at diagnosis was 6.3+/-4.1 years. The follow-up period was 5.4+/-3.7 years. Among them, 44.7% (21/47) showed spontaneous remission and maintained a platelet count > or =100x10(9)/L. And 66.0% (31/47) maintained a platelet count > or =50x10(9)/L until the last follow-up date. The time periods required for the platelet count to be maintained > or =50x10(9)/L and > or =100 x10(9)/L were 3.1+/-2.7 and 3.6+/-2.7 years. Age at diagnosis in the > or =50x10(9)/L group (5.7+/-4.4 years) was significantly lower than the age at diagnosis in the <50x10(9)/L group (7.4+/-3.3 years) (P=0.040). And follow-up period was the factor influencing prognosis between the > or =100x10(9)/L group and <50x10(9)/L group (P=0.022). CONCLUSION: Approximately 45% of children with chronic ITP recovered spontaneously about 3-4 years after the diagnosis and 2/3 of patients maintained a platelet count > or =50x10(9)/L, relatively safe state. Age at diagnosis of ITP and follow-up period were the factors influencing prognosis in this study.

Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas (SPTPs) are rare tumors with limited malignant potential; they are mainly diagnosed in young women. Complete surgical resection of the tumor is usually possible and patients have an excellent prognosis. However, local invasion and distant metastases have been reported in about 10-20% of patients with SPTPs; these patients require supplementary management for long-term survival. Here, we report a pediatric patient with inoperable SPTP unresponsive to neoadjuvant chemotherapy using cisplatin, ifosfamide, and etoposide which had spread to other organs. Subtotal resection of the primary tumor, radiofrequency ablation, radiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy using gemcitabine were done to control this progressive SPTP.
