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

Recently phacoemulsification with about 3mm small incision and implantation of foldable silicone intraocular lens (IOL) has been widely used. We performed this study to determine the changes of central corneal endothelium with time after surgery and the effect of the surgical skill and age of patient on endothelial cell loss(ECL). We evaluated 198 patients(198 eyes). The patients was randomly divided into expert(E) and biginner(B) group. The non-contact specular microscopy was performed at preoperative and postoperative 1 week, 1 month, 2 months and 3 months and ECL(%) was calculated. Mean ECL of E group was lower than that of B group. The differencewas statistically significant in the patients younger than 60 years(p<0.05). In E group, mean ECL of postoperative 1 week was higher than that of 1 month. However, the mean ECL of B group at postoperative 1 week was lower than that of 1 month. It was statistically significant in patients younger than 60 years(p<0.05). The patients older than 60 years showed higher ECL than young group. It was statistically significant at postoperative 1 week and 3 months in E gorups(p<0.05). From these results, we conclude that the changes of central corneal endothelial cell count after small incision cataract surgery are different according to the skill of surgeon and the age of patient.
