Acetabular fracture is severe injury and is associated with other body injuries severely. It's complications are traumatic arthritis and avascular necrosis of femoral head which induce severe permanent disability and its treatment is equivocal. A clinical study was performed on 70 patients with 65 fresh fractures and 5 old fractures of the acetabulum, who were hospitalized and treated at Severance Hospital from January 1971 to December 1980 and following results were obtained. 1. The prevalent age distribution was between 20 and 50 years of age (75.7%), and the ratio between males and females was 2.2:1. The most common cause of injury was traffic accident (70.%). 2. 56 patients (80.0%) were associated injuries of other parts and the most common associated fracture was pelvic bone fracture and the most common associated soft tissue injury was urological injury. 3. A classification of acetabular fracture was induced from Judet and Letournel's anatomical classification; simple fracture was 45 cases (64.2%), associated fracture was 25 cases (35.8%) and most common hip dislocation was posterior dislocation (31.4%). 4. The methods of treatment were; closed management by using traction for 53 patients, surgical management by open reduction and internal fixation for 12 patients, and hip reconstructive surgery by total hip replacement(2 patients), cup arthroplasty (2 patients), acetabular roof formation by using iliac bone graft (1 patient). 5. The satisfactory result of conservative treatment was (57.8%), surgical treatment was (72.7%), hip reconstructive treatment was (80.0%). 6. The complications of the acetabular fracture were traumatic arthritis (36.1%), avascular necrosis (23.0%), myositis ossificans (6.6%), infection (3.3%). 7. Finally, the results of treatment depend largely on anatomical reduction, early joint motion.

We have experienced a case of infantile nephritic syndrome confirmed by renal biopsy in a 13-month-old female patient who showed and develop mental retardation and persistent proteinuria. She revealed mild eyelid edema, joint laxity, delayed speech development and adrenal cortical calcification on the radiologic study. Renal biopsy showed microcystic tubular change, micro-glomeruli and marked mesangial proliferation.

Many procedures of quadricepsplasty were reported by Thompson (1944), Judet (1959), van Nes (1962), Nicoll (1963) and Hesketh (1963) in confining the indication of them for the strictly extra-articular origin of their causes. During the period of January 1979 to August 1979, 5 cases of stiff knee joints were surgically treated by means of arthrolysis and quadriceps release. The result were gratifying. The average gain of flexion was 119 degrees, and extension lag was absent except a case which had compression fracture of femoral condyle.

Thoracic outlet syndrome is a collective term embracing previously described syndromes such as scalenus anticus, cervical rib, costoclavicular, hyperabduction and shoulder girdle compression syndromes. Its symptoms and signs are due to bony and soft tissue compression of the neurovascular bundle at the thoracic outlet. It is the purpose of this paper to evaluate the results of experience in treating the patient with thoracie outlet syndrome by surgical means. In this study, 3 cases: cervical rib (1 case), excessive callus formation after clavicular fracture (1 case), and hyperabduction syndrome with combined scalenus anticus syndrome (1 case), which had developed thoracic outlet syndrome were treated at Severance Hospital and gratifying results were obtained.

Thoraic outlet syndrome is a collective term in which symptoms and signs are due to bony and soft tissue compression of the neurovascular bundle at the thoracic outlet. It is the purpose of this paper to evaluate the results of treatment of patients with thoracic outlet syndrome by surgical methods. In this study, 7 cases, comprised of cervical rib (3 cases), excessive callus formation after clavicular fracture (2 cases), and scalenus anticus syndrome (2 cases), which had developed thoracic outlet syndrome were treated at Severance Hospital and good results were obtained.

Triple arthrodesis is performed to obtain stable stature and walking, to eliminate pain, to correct the deformities of the foot. This is the result of 92 feet triple arthrodesis over a period from 1976 to 1991 at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine. The results are as follows 1. Mean age was 17.6 years, ranged from 10 to 51 years. 2. Of the total of 92 feet, sequelae of poliomyelitis was the most common etiology with 58 feet(63%). 3. Most common type of foot deformity was talipes equinovarus with 52 feet(56%). 4. Internal fixation was done with staple or Steinmann pin combined with autogenous bone graft. Among them, using of 2 staples was the most common fixation method, 47 cases(51%). 5. As necessary, triple arthrodesis was combined with tendo-calcaneus lengthening, plantar fasciotomy, posterior capsulotomy, modified Jones operation and tibiotalar arthrodesis. 6. Final results were ideal. in 22 cases(24%), good in 51 cases(56%), fair in 16 cases(17%) and fail in 3 cases(3%). 7. There were 2 cases of pseudoarthrosis and 1 case of residual equinus deformity after operation. In conclusion, triple arthrodesis was the efficient method of treatment for the deformed feet in skeletally matured patients.

Ketotifen, a benzocycloheptathiophene, has an orally effective antiallergic as well as antihistaminic properties. In pervious studies, Ketotifen has shown encouraging results on patient with allergic rhinitis, either perennial or seasonal. 39 patients with allergic rhinitis had been treated with Ketotifen 1 mg twice daily for 8 weeks. And we obtained following results. 1) The efficacy rate in sneezing attack was 73.5%, in nasal discharge 71%, in nasal obstruction 58%. 2) Some improvements in at least one of three-major symptoms were noted within 1 week in 30.7%, within 2 weeks in 55.8%, within 3 weeks in 66.7%, within 8 weeks in 87.2%. 3) Physical findings such as colour, swelling of turbinate, character of rhinorrhea were not improved significantly. 4) Side effect was observed only in one patient with abdominal pain and diarrhea, which was subsided after interruption of administration. These results suggested that Ketotifen was effective in treatment of allergic rhinitis.

Cystic hygroma is a rare, endothelial lined cystic lesion of lymphatic origin which is encountered most often in children, usually at birth or early in life. The tumor is usually found in the neck and axilla. It is a soft, nontender, semifluctuant freely movable tumor of varying size filled with lymphatic fluid. The mass is sometimes pedunculated and is uaually multilocular, althouh it may be monolocular. The cystic hygroma of the right axilla and the upper arm, in a 4 month-old female infant, is presented with a review of the literature.

The term “non-ossifying fibroma of bone” was introduced by Jaffe and Lichenstein in 1942 to describe a distinctive benign lesion occuring near the ends of the long bones in young people, and the lesion was subsequently described by Hatcher as a developmental defect rather than a true tumor. This lesion was presented as a clear-cut entity on the basis of pathological, clinical and roentgenographic manifestations. The diagnosis of non-ossifying fibroma was made by the histopathological findings of the curetted tissues. The authors have seen and studied 5 cases of non-ossifying fibroma from February 1976 to September 1981. The average duration of follow up was 2.2 years, with a range from 0.8 to 5 years, and the results of treatment were as follows: l. Of the five cases, two were associated with pathologic fractures. 2. The sites of the lesions in all cases were the long bones in the lower extremity. 3 In all cases, the complaints were of only a few days or weeks duration before admission to the hospital, and no cases were discovered incidentally by roentgenographic examination. 4. Good results were obtained by treatment with curettage and bone graft.
