Restoration of the M-P joint of a damaged or lost joint by trauma, tumor and others is necessary for adequate function of the hand. Several procedure have been described for restoration of the M-P joint. We experienced a case of vascularized joint transter for a lost joint by trauma. After 1 year and 2 months follow-up, there have been no degenerative change and no pain.

Five adult cases of post-laminectomy swan-neck deformity are reported. The factors causing the deformity, prophylactic measures, and treatment of the deformity are discussed. It is strongly adviced to the neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons that they should be aware of this unwanted complication of the multi-level cervical laminectomies, and that they should provide every preventive measures before post-laminectomy swan neck deformity develops. Anterior interbody fusion spanning the entire unstable segments is preferably recommended together with application of pre-fusion traction.

A case of subcorneal pustular dermatosis is reported. This 39 year old woman repeatedly developed the erythematous vesicopustular eruptions on the trunk and the extremeties with scvere tiching sensation for about 7 months. Histological examinstion revealed the subcorneal pustules and the mild inflammatory cell infiltration, so tetracycline 1500mg. And chloramphenicol 1000mg. Were adminiistered without benefit. The second biopsy was obtained and it revealed as the subcorneal pustular dermatosis. Therapy with DDS was instituted and was followed by marked clearing of the lesions.

This 51 years old Korean house wife has been suffered from bullous and erosive eruptions on the abdomen, back, both thigh and legs, duration of three days with sudden onset Prior to admission she has had a erosion on the oral mucosa for one year. The diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris was confirmed by histopathology and immunoelectrophoresis. This patient was improved with treatment of prednisolone bu Lever's "Logarithmic fashion" and used the maintenance dose of prednisolone without recurrence.

One case of malignant acanthosis nigricans associated with internal malignancy has been presented and the suhject of malignant acanthosis nigricans has been revieived. The patient who was 50 year old man had been affected generalized hyperpigmentation with pnpillomatosis especially on forehead, neck, axilla, umbilical area, anogenital area, palm and soles and associated with highly malignant adenocarcinoma of stomach. Diagnosis was confirmed by characteristic clinical appearance, explorative laparatomy and histopathologically

Fewer than one half of patients with acute myocardial infarction is a candidate for thrombolytic therapy. Current data revealed that primary coronary stenting may be useful alternative to intravenous thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction in these subset of patients. We experienced a patient presenting with acute myocardial infarction and acute promyelocytic leukemia in whom thrombolytic therapy was thought be not eligible due to hemorrhagic tendency. Primary coronary stenting was performed successfully without complications. Follow-up angiography revealed no evidence of restenosis or stent occlusion.

To recognize the hemodynamic change in the constrictive pericarditis, we have reviewed the Doppler echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, and pathology of 6 patients who were admitted to Pusan National University Hospital due to right-side heart failure, diagnosed as constrictive pericarditis and were undertaken pericardiectomy. Doppler echocardiographic findings showed that acceleration and deceleration of early diastolic rapid filling were increased, followed by shortening of duration but there was a tendency to decrease in velocity-time integral of early diastolic rapid filling compared to that of atrial contraction filling in the left ventricle. On the contrary, there was decrease in acceleration of rapid filling in right ventricle, but other indices were comparable to that of left ventricle. The integral of D wave increased relatively compared to that of S wave in superior vena canal flow. Also, there was decrease in peak flow velocity, acceleration and velocity-time integral of aortic and pulmonary arterial flow velocity. One patient who had increased fraction of integral of early diastolic rapid filling compared to that of atrial contraction filling in right ventricle showed that he had higher central venous pressure and D wave was dominant in superior vena caval flow. In conclusion, Doppler flow patterns showed characteristic diastolic filling inpairment and systolic dysfunction in constrictive pericarditis, so that Doppler echocardiography is believed to be a useful method of noninvasive diagnosis and follow-up of hemodynamic change in constrictive pericarditis.
