Hibernoma is a rare subcutaneous neoplasm resembling the brown fat of the hibernating animal. It is usually found in the interscapular, cervical or axillary regions. We report a case of this rare tumor which developed on the occeipital scalp of a 42-year-old woman.

The authors performed a retrospective matched-pair study for 54 uncemented total hip arthroplasties which were performed in management of avascular necrosis of femoral head from July, 1989 to May, 1991 to investigate what kind of stem is better between Anatomic stem as a proximal filling stem and Harris-Galante stem as a distal filling stem. The results were as followings: 1. Clinical results of Anatomic group were slightly better than those of Harris-Galante group in terms of incidence of thigh pain, groin or buttock pain and final functional score of hip. 2. Incidence of radiolucency around femoral stem in Harris-Galante group was higher than that in Anatomic group, especially in zone I, V of anteroposterior view and in zone IV of lateral view, which were statistically significant(p < 0.05). 3. The incidence of vertical subsidence of femoral stem in Harris-Galante group was significantly higher than that in Anatomic group(p < 0.05) and the average distance of subsidence was 3.2mm. 4. The incidence of endosteal osteolysis and bone resorption in Harris-Galante group was higher than that in Anatomic group. 5. In overall view, clinical and radiographic results of Anatomic group were better than those of Harris-Galante group.

Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica is a rare developmental disorder of epiphyseal growth characterized by asymmetrical cartilagenous overgrowth. This disorder was first described with the “la tarsomegalie” by Mouchet and Belot in 1926 but this name, Dysolasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica, was first proposed by Fairbank in 1956. This disorder is usually limited to either the medial or lateral half of a single extremity in childhood. It is asymptomatic until the protruding epiphyseal mass interferes joint function. The character istic abnormalities are deformities, restricted motion and pain. The most frequent finding at the initial examination is an irregular, often multicentric radiopacity, and when the lesion is matured it looks irregular, and frequently there is a lobulated osseous mass protruding from the epiphysis of tarsal and carpal bones. Diagnosis by the roentgenogram requires primarily knowledge of this condition. The lesion is often microscopically indistinguishable from an osteochondroma. A case of Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica in a 17 year old male, showing typical roentgenographic appearances, is reported together with a brief review of literature in this paper.

PURPOSE: Platelet Rich Plasma(PRP) application is increasing with sinus inlay bone graft, but there is few research with radiographic ananlysis on effect of PRP in maxillary sinus. The author investigated the amount of bony changes of maxillary sinus for dental implantation among the patients with maxillary inlay graft. MATERIALS AND METHODS: With 10 patients who were treated with sinus inlay autologous bone grafting combined with PRP technique, and with 5 patients who were treated with sinus inlay grafting only without PRP, the panoramic radiographys which were taken at preoperation, immediate postoperation, 3months postoperation, and 4 months postoperation(a month after dental implantation)periods were analysed. The films had been scanned, and then proceeded throughout image analysis system. The bone density of maxillary grafted sites was compared with adjacent tooth enamel density and remeasured according to density luminosity of each film. The density changes on PRP group and bone graft only group were an lysed with non-parameteric statistics method. RESULTS: In PRP combined patients group, bone density on postoperation periods was increased totally. The remarkable enhanced change of bone density was observed on 3 months postoperation period, thereafter the increasing rate was slightly reduced . In only bone graft patients group, bone density on postoperation periods was also increased compared with preoperation period, but the bone density of 4 months postoperation period was decreased compared with 3 months postoperation period. The amount of bone density on PRP group was significantly changed according to periods in contrast to bone graft only group. CONCLUSION: The bone density on PRP group was remarkably increased at 3 months postoperation compared to bone graft only group and it was seemed to be associated with more new bone formation, less grafted bone resorption at bone grafted sites with PRP.

BACKGROUND: Prevention of postherpetic neuralgia as well as management of the symptoms of the acute stage is an important therapeutic goal in the treatment of herpes zoster. Corticosteroid, acyclovir and sympathetic block have all been advocated as effective therapeutic tools for the treatment of the disease. OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to evaluate the necessity of sympathetic block for prevention of postherpetic neuralgia in acute herpes zoster. METHODS: The author observed the duration and degree of pain and the incidence of postherpetic neuralgia in 54 patients with herpes zoster treated with three different therapeutic measures. Group A was treated with triamcinolone acetonide 80mg three times, acyclovir and sympathetic blockade, group B with triamcinolone acetonide 80mg three times and acyclovir, and group C with triamcinolone acetonide 40mg three times and acyclovir. RESULTS: 1. Addition of sympathetic blockade to corticosteroid and acyclovir therapy did not seem to reduce the duration of pain and incidence of postherpetic neuralgia. 2. The Incidence of postherpetic neuralgia was higher in the elderly, especially with underlying systemic disease including diabetes melitus, hypertension, etc. Al] the therapeutic measures could not completely prevent the development of postherpetic neuralgia in those patients. 3. Regarding corticosteroid dosage, daily triamcinolone acetonide 80mg for three consecutive days showed no better effect than daily 40mg for consecutive days. CONCLUSION: When herpes zoster was treated with proper dosages of corticosteroid and acyclovir in its acute stage, sympathetic block showed no additional beneficial effect.

Gastritis cystica profunda (GCP) is an uncommom hyperplastic lesion, which is located within the submucosa. GCP may occur several years after previous gastric surgery. In some reported cases, it was a premalignant condition and may lead to carcinoma of the stomach. We report a case of a 54-year-old man with epigastric pain and dyspepsia. He had undergone peritoneal dialysis for end stage renal disease about 13 years prior. An Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed elevated lesion at the gastric antrum, looking like an advanced gastric cancer or gastrointestinal stromal tumor. Endoscopic biopsy results were tubular adenoma with low-grade dysplasia. When followed up 9 months later, the lesion had increased in size and symptoms remained. We therefore performed a subtotal gastrectomy. The final biopsy was adenocarcinoma arising in GCP.

188Re (beta=22 MeV; gamma=155 keV; T1/2=16.9 hours) is an attractive therapeutic radioisotope which is produced from decay of reactor-produced tungsten-188 parent (T1/2=69 days). 188W has been produced from the double neutron capture reaction of 186W. 188Re can be easily obtained by elution of saline on alumina based 186W/188Re generator, which is commercially available. Complexes labelled with 188Re have been developed for the radiotherapy treatment of diseases because of the desirable nuclear properties of the radioisotope and it's chemical properties similar to those of technetium, a well established diagnostic agent.
