A case of osteold osteoma was presented because of its rarity in number particularly in localization of tumor, that is, subperiosteal in position. Also we could treat the patient successfully by surgical intervention and the removed specimen preserved beautifully all the character and contour of the tumor grossly and microsoopically.

In spite of decreasing the rate of industrial accident, the number of injured work people has been rising up tendency in Korea recently. Above twe third of the accident was involved in extremities and many of them were obtained limitation of range of motion of joint. The authores analyse the 325 cases with limitation of joint who were treated at Industrial Rehabilitation Center during the two years of period from May 1973 to April 1975 and the results were as follows: 1. Most cases were male (94.5%) and age group of predominance was 3rd and 4th decades. 2. The highest incidence of causative injury was fracture (80.9%) 3. The greatest number of involved joints occured at knee (31%), and higher incidence in joints of lower limb and of right side. 4. Among the 325 cases, 40% was treated for 9–12 weeks and average duration of treatment was 87 days. 5. There was marked increasing range of motion in 31% but not improved in 13.5%. 6. 137 out of 325 cases was able to move more than 75% of full range of motion of joint involved. 7. Surgery for the restoration was performed in 39 cases (12.0%).

The elbow region is the most common site at which the ulnar nerve is prone to a localized neuropathy. Diagnosis of ulnar nerve entrapment at elbow is made on the basis of history, lacal neurologic finding, nerve conduction studies and electromyography. Electrophysiologic test is simple, relatively quick, and accurate method for the diagnosis of peripheral nerve lesion. Therefore, electrodisgnosis makes it possible to identify and localize the early stage of entrapment lesion. Definitive diagnosis of ulnar nerve entrapment at elbow requires electromyographic demonstration of decreased ulnar nerve conduction velocity across the elbow and depressed sensory nerve action potentials. The purpose of this study were to analyze the electrophysiologic findings of patients with an established ulnar nerve entrapment at elbow compared to normal eonduction velocity of our laboratory. And we evaluate the correlation of clinical symptom with the electromyographic findings. Twenty five subjects were studied, 22 men and 3 women, aged from 5 to 62 years. The results were as follows . 1. The mean motor conduction velocity of ulnar nerve across elbow were 32.85±10.21 m/sec. The longer duration of symptom were, the slower conduction veloctity across elbow were. 2. Among the 25 patients, motor conduction velocity of ulnar nerve at forearm segment decreased in 15 patients(60%). As the motor conduction velocity of the ulnar nerve across elbow became slower, thst of forearm segment were slower. 3. In 19 patients (76%) among the 25 patients, sensory evoked potentials revealed prolonged distal latency or were not evoked. 4. On needle electrodiagnostic study, positive sharp wave or fibrillation potentials could be found in abductor digiti minimi first dorsal interosseus and/or flexor carpi ulnaris muscles in 22 patients(88%).

1. Fifty one cases of fractures of the shaft of the femur in children, treated at Seoul National University Hospital during the seven years, from August 1962 to July 1969, were analyzed. 2. In thirty eight of the cases fracture involved the middle third of the shaft, in eleven the upper third, and in two the lower third. 3. Bryant traction was employed in fifteen of the cases ranging from four months to six years of age. One case, five years old, was complicated by Volkmanns ischemic contracture on both legs. 4. Russell traction was employed in eleven of the cases ranging from six to fourteen years of age. Angulation and distraction must be watched especially in the younger age group, although we encountered no serious complications which required subsequent treatment. 5. Hoke traction was employed in twelve of the cases ranging from six to eleven years of age. Although this form of treatment is not particularly popular, we are of the opinion that it is the treatment of choice over two years of age and,under six years of age and that between six and twelve years of age it may be optionally employed along with Russell traction. We found it. particularly useful and convenient in selected cases in which Russell traction could not be effectively employed. 6. In some of the complicated cases, open reduction and internal fixation, closed reduction with pin and plaster immobilization, or skeletal traction was employed.
