Sixty amputees who had traumatic amputations due to industrial accidents were examined on their phantom limb and phantom pain phenomena and the following results were obtained. 1. Fifty-three (93%) of sixty amputees experienced phantom limb and twenty-four (40%) experienced phantom pain. The incidence of phantom pain in the lower limb amputation (59%) is greater than that of upper limb amputation (29%). 2. Amputees with asthenic body status gave higher incidence (56%) of phantom pain than those with muscular body status (20%). None of amputees with obese body status experienced phantom pain. 3. The sensation of strong current and cramping were most predominant sensations in the phantom pain. 4. Twenty-eight (93%) of thirty amputees had experienced painless phantom limb longer than four months. 5. Six (55%) of eleven upper limb amputees with phantom pain experienced pain sensation at the tips of fingers and nine (69%) of thirteen lower limb amputees with phantom pain experienced pain at the great toe. 6. Fifty-three (88%) of sixty amputees experienced telescoping of the lost limb and twenty-three (38%) of sixty amputees experienced jerking movement of the stump. 7. In fifty-four (90%) of sixty amputees, trigger zones triggering pain in the phantom limb were found in the healthy part of the body. 8. Twenty-two (40%) of fifty-five male amputees experienced burning sensation in the phantom limb associated with urination, defecation or ejaculation. 9. Cold temperature was predominant, aggrevating factor of the phantom pain. Fitting prosthesis and alcohol intake were predominant, relieving factor of the phantom pain.

A case of Cleido-Cranial-Dysostosis, which characterized by deficient formation of the clavicle with delayed and imperfect ossification of the cranium, associated with other anatomical errors, was experienced at The Department of Orthopaedic Surgery of Kyung Hee University Hospital in January 73. We report this rare and interest case with reference review.

A Histologic finding of the Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita( CMTC) is non-specific, but dilated capillaries and increased number of vessels are often observed. Capillary hemangioma, mostly represented by strawberry nevus, may show various clinical manifestations. We report a case of Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita, which may be an unusual clinical presentation of capillary hemangioma.

Amputation through the epiphyseal plate is very rare. Authors experienced only one case of ankle amputation through the epiphyseal plate in one huadred seventeen replantation cases during last seven years. It can make severe growth disturbance after replantation especially if the bone shortening is carried out at epiphyseal plate. Authors have developed new idea to make boae shortening during replantation with preservation of the epiphyseal plate in amputation through the epiphyseal plate in three years old female. It is, so called, double osteotomy shortening. Bone shortening is performed at 5cm above amputated epipyaeal plate to avoid further damage in epiphyseal plate, and a bone segment 3cm in length is resected,by double osteotomy shortening technique. After then, bone reduction and internal fixation is followed. With above technique, authors succeeded in replantation without further damage in epiphysis. In three years and ten months follow-up, bony growth in replanted tibia shows normal pattern, and epiphyseal plate in replanted site is working and remained open. The patient can walk without pain, and motor-sensory function have almost completely recoverered.

Microscopic polyangiitis is a systemic small-vessel vasculitis, which may involve multiple organs, but cardiac involvement is relatively rare. We report a case of microscopic polyangiitis with multiple organ involvement, in which myocardial infarction was the early manifestation of the disease. A 53-year-old man presented with sudden papulovesicular eruptions and swellings on the face, posterior neck, dorsa of both hands and fingers, and with diffuse erythematous patches on the back. He had suffered from renal dysfunction, arthralgia, and hypertension for more than 8 years. He had been admitted to the department of cardiology for acute myocardial infarction and had suffered from recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding, renal failure, acute pancreatitis and sepsis during the admission. Histopathologically, small-vessel leukocytoclastic vasculitis with out granuloma was seen. Direct immunofluorescence showed no immune deposite. A high serum level of P-ANCA was detected by ELISA.
