Sixty-six cases of erythena nodosum(EN) and erythema induraturn(EI) were examined pathologically and clinically. Pathologically 23 cases were erythema nodosum, 43 cases were erytherna induratum. Pathological diagnosis made without any prior knowledge of the clinical and laboratory data. Clinical manifestations were reviewed on basis of pathological diagnosis. The results are as follows; l. EN and EI mainly occurred in female, age of twenties and during spring season. There was no difference in sex, age and seasonal incidence between EN and EI. 2. Both EN and EI affected chiefly the shins. EI was more common than EN in cases of calf involvement. 3. Tenderness and systemic symptoms developed more often in EN, while ulcers occurred only in EI. 4 EI had relatively long duration. There was no difference in the recurrence rate between EN and EI. 5. Pulmonary tuberculosis was found only in El on chest X-rays. 6. Clinical and pathological diagnosis was identical in almost cases of EN but those were variable in case of EI.

The acetabular angles were measured in 2 groups of selected 100 infants and children each, of whom one group aged 14 months and younger and the other group aged 15 months of 5 yrs. and who were proved to be normal by all the physical examination and whose acetabular angles were below 40 according to Coleman's diagnostic criteria. The measurements were broken down into right and left, and male and female because of the known difference in the incidence of CDH in 2 members of each of these paired categories and analysed statistically. The following statistic significances resulted: l. All the measured normal acetabular angles vary between 10 and 31 degrees. 2. The acetabular angles decrease after weight bearing by the statistical significant difference between 0-14 mo. group and 15 mo-5yr. group. The angles are 22,61±3,47 (M±S,D) and 18.68±3.64 (M±S.D) respectively. 3. The acetabular angles of female of 15mo.-5yr. group are higher than male by the statistical significant difference. The angles are 17.77±3.54 (M±S.D) and 20.18±3.29 (M±S.D) respectively. 4. Statistical significant differences were absent between right and left.

Among the skeletal tuberculous spondylitis is high incidence and curable disease, if early diagnosis and treatment are possible. We reviewed clinical manifestations and radiologic analysis of 30 cases tuberculous spondylitis from May 1983 to Sept. 1986, at Yeungnam medical center, Yeungnam University. The results were follows: 1. The frequent involve sites were thoracolumbar vertebra. 2. The continuous lesion is 86.7% of the all cases. 3. The most common type was intervertebral type, and lytic and sclerotic lesion were same incidence. 4. Paravertebral abscess, kyphosis and disc space narrowing were demonstrated more than 80.0% of the cases. 5. Computed tomography was more accurate diagnostic method rather than conventional plain study to evaluation of extent of lesion, involvement of spinal canal and cord, and size and location of paravertebral abscess. And CT guided abscess drainage procedure was helpful to diagnosis and treatment. 6. Ultrasonography was helpful to differential diagnosis between paravertebral abscess and other solid mass, and useful to follow up study of paravertebral abscess after treatment.
