To evaluate the degree of competitive exclusion against Salmonella gallinarum(S. gallinarum) of Salmonella enteritidis(S. enteritidis) infected chickens, fifty-six, 4-week old Hyline layer suspected of S. enteritidis infection were challenged with S. gallinarum. All chickens were tested for S. enteritidis isolation using cloacal swabs and serum plate agglutination test using S. enteritidis Ag. before challenge and classified into four groups(SE isolated, SE nonisolated, SE seropositive and SE seronegative). None of the SE isolated and the SE seropositive groups died after challenge and the average weight gains were 245.5g and 254.6g, respectively. But in the SE nonisolated and the SE seronegative groups, mortality was 18.2% and 20.6% and the average weight gains were 150.1g and 111.2g. The incidence of reisolation of S. gallinarum of the SE isolated and the SE seropositive groups were 41.7% and 47.6% from liver, 33.3% and 47.6% from spleen and 8.3% and 14.3% from cecum, respectively, and the SE nonisolated and the SE seronegative group were 63.6% and 64.7% from liver, 84.1% and 88.2% from spleen and 47.7% and 52.9% from cecum. The serological response of the SE isolated and the SE seropositive groups hardly changed from 75.0 and 81.8% before challenge to 75.0 and 85.7% after. But, the other two groups were found to be significantly higher after challenge and increased from 0 and 18.2% to 100%. Consequently, S. enteritidis preinfected chickens were found to be significant different in terms of mortality, weight gain, reisolation of S. gallinarum and serological response compared to noninfected chickens. Moreover, our study shows that S. enteritidis infected chickens appear strong competitive exclusion against the colonization of S. gallinarum.

PURPOSE: Many articles have proposed that osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is caused by fat embolism or intravascular coagulation linked to hyperlipidemia. To determine whether hyperlipidemia is an associated factor for ONFH, serum lipid levels were measured. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nighty-eight patients presenting with ONFH and 110 controls were investigated. We compared the average value of serum lipid levels and the incidence of hyperlipidemia of the two groups. RESULTS: ONFH group showed generalized increase in lipid level and statistically significant difference in the average value of total cholesterol (P=0.0001), HDL-cholesterol (P=0.0261) and phospholipid (P=0.0465) compared with the control. The incidence of hyperlipidemia of the two groups showed statistically significant difference in HDL-cholesterol (P=0.019) and triglyceride (P=0.024). CONCLUSION: Hyperlipidemia seems to be associated with pathogenesis of ONFH. We speculated that hyperlipidemia might be a contributing factor of ONFH. Hyperlipidemia may play a role as a triggering factor in the pathogenetic process that results in osteonecrosis. However, it can not be ruled out that secondary hyperlipidemia might be a finding following ONFH.

Nonunion is one of the important complication during treatment of forearm fracture. Nonunion of the forearm fracture inevitably prolongs the treatment course and markedly impairs the function of the forearm. We analyzed 34 cases of nonunion of forearm fracture in 21 persons from Jan. 1979 to Dec. 1985. The results are as follows. 1. The greater force of traffic accident of machine injury produced nonunion more frequently. 2. The predilection site of the nonunion was coincidental to the fracture site of the forearm. 3. Unstable fracture such as comminuted, segmental, spiral or oblique fracture was more closely related to the nonunion than the stable fracture. Hypervascular type nonunion was more prevalent than the avascular type. 4. The probable causes of nonunion were poor external fixation, severe soft tissue injury, displaced or comminuted fracture and inadequate or inappropriate surgery. 5. Obtained bone union in all cases, but the functional result was not improved compared to the preoperative state.

Necrotizing colitis associated with carcinoma of the colon, Known also as obstructive colitis, is a disordercharacterized by anulceration and inflammation of the colon proximal to an obstructive lesion, especiallycarcinoma of the rectosigmoid colon, and in rare instances, leads to actual gangrene of the colon. The authorsanalysed radiologic findings in four cases of necrotizing colitis associated with carcinoma of the colon. Bariumenema disclosed mucosal edema, nodular filling defects, irregularity of the colonic controur and typicalthumbprinting appearance of involved colon proximal to an obstructing carcinoma of the colon. The mechanism ofnecrotizing colitis was briefly reviewed.

Although the ultlrasonography has been regarded as a main procedure in the diagnosis of bile duct andgallbladder diseases, a few reports concerning the ultrasonographic findings of biliary ascariasis appeared in theliterature. Seven cases of real-time ultrasonographic diagnosis of biliary ascariasis were made in our hospitalduring last 15 months. In six, the diagnosis was confirmed by surgery or radiographic examination. The resultswere as follows; 1. The characteristic long, thick, highly reflective echo without distal acoustic shadowing inthe extra and/or in tra-hepatic ducts were seen in all six proven cases. 2. The echogenic, nonshadowing images ofthe worms were seen as single stripe in five cases(containing a central longitudinal, anechoic tube, suggestingits digestive tract in three cases ) or multiple stripes in one case. But so-called coiled appearance or amorphousfragments were not seen in our cases. 3. Associated findings were as follows; mild to moderate dilatation of theextrahepatic duct in all six duct in 1 case, intrahepatic stone in 1 case, contracted gallbladder containingsingle stone in 1 case and evidence of cholecystitis in 4 cases. 4. One false positive diagnosis of ascariasis inthe gallbladder is considered due to reverberation artefact. No false negative was seen.

Condyloma acuminatum, a benign disease caused by a filtrable virus, occurs predominantly in the perianal andgenital areas. The lesions are noninvasive but are subject to recurrence. In rare instances, a more aggresive formof this disease, known as "giant condlyloma acuminatum" or "Buschke-Lownestein tumor", occures. In this form,infiltration of the lesion into surrounding structures takes place. This tumor has been reported to occurprincipally in the genitourinary tract. The authors experienced a cases of giant condyloma acuminatum originatingfrom rectum in 67 years old male patient which recurred 3 months after electrofulguration.

Although the ultrasonography has been regarded as a important procedure in the diagnosis of intraabdominalabscess, there were relatively few papers concerning the ultrasonographic findings of periappendiceal abscess.Nineteen cases of surgically proven periappendiceal abscess caused by perforated appendicitis were studied byultrasonography at the Kyung Hee University Hospital during last 34 months. The results were as follows; 1.Diagnostic accuracy of the real-time ultrasonography was 94.7%(18/19). There were only one false positive and onefalse negative. 2. The location of abscesses were ; periappendiceal 68.4%(13/19), pelvic 21.0%(4/19), subhepatic5.3%(1/19) and subphrenic 5.3%(1/19) in order of frequency. 3. Variable echo-patterns of abscesses wereencountered. But irregular, thick walled, posteriorly reinforcing, echo-free or mixed echo-patterns were mostcommon.

In the unusual manifestation of right upper lobe collapse confusing with mediastinal or parenchymal mass, both alteration of the pulmonary vessels and shifting pattern of the collapsed lobe to the periphery on supine positionare the key to the diagnosis of it rather than mediastinal or parenchymal mass. The mechanisms of these unusual manifestation s are obscure, however lobar torsion and gravity factor are considered to be a main process. Authors have experienced 2 cases of unusual manifestations of right upper lobe collapse due to bronchogenic carcinomaduring resent 2 years in Kyung Hee University hospital, and prsent radiologic findings.

Congenital tuberculosis is an infection that is established in the fetus by hematogenous spread or by the aspiration or inhalation of infected amniotic fluid either before or during labor. The diagnosis can be confirmed only if both the tuberculous nature of the lesion and the antenatal origin of the infection can be proved. The authors analysed roentgen findings of two cases of pulmonary tuberculosis, thought to be congenital; 1. Diffuse distribution of nodular densities and some confluent densities were seen in the entire lungs in the inital film.The pulmonary markings were decreased in some degree. 2. Air bronchogram was noted. 3. Hepatosplenomegaly was associated.
