Separation of Langerhans cells in epidermis of 16 healthy Korean individuals were performcd. Separation of Langerhans cells by density gradient centrifugation on a colloidal sillica(percoll) polyvinilpyrrolidone gradient. And autologous, allogeneic mixed skin cell leukocyte culture reaction was done with each fractionatcd cpidermal cell suspensions. Also lymphocytes, epidermal cells was cultured in media alone, respectively. The results was quantitated by the incorporation of H-thymidine by p-liquid scintillation counter. The densities of I angerhans cells within the epidermal cells, fraction-2 was most higher concentration (22.0+2.8%) and fraction-5 was most lower concentration (3.4+ l.9%). 2. In the comparison of the results of Langehans cells enriched and depleted population in autologous mixed skin cell leukocyte culture reaction, the former was higher than the latter on lymphocyte stimulatory capacity. There was significant differences(p<0.005) And also same as result in allogeneic mixed skin cell leukocyte culture reaction. 3. Langerhans cells enriched fraction in this study was more lymphocyte stimulatory capacity than depleted fraction in allogeneic mixed skin cell leukocyte culture(p<0.01~0.05). Ailogeneic mixed skin cell leukocyte culture reaction was more lymphocyte stimulatory capacity than the autologous(p<0.005~0.05).

As the number of primary total knee arthroplasties (TKA) have increased, there has been a corresponding increase in the number of revision TKAs. The purpose of the this study is to report on the follow-up results of 50 revision TKAs, and to assess their clinical outcome. From January 1990 to December 1995, 50 revision TKAs were perfomed in 43 patients, by one surgeon. Mean follow up time was 2.5 years (range, 1 to 6 years). The mean interval from the initial arthroplasty to revision was 4.6 years (range, 3 months-12.6 years). The causes of the revision were wear of polyethylene in 29 joints (58%), infection in seven (14%) and aseptic loosening in six. The revision components were fixed with cement in all cases. Additional fixations were obtained with modular stems (femoral 11 cases, tibial 13 cases), 9 tibial metal wedges, 7 femoral augmentations, and 12 allografts. The Knee Rating Scale of Hospital for Special Surgery was used for clinical assessment. The mean flexion contracture and further flexion of knee joint were 8.8degrees (range, 0-70degrees), 98.5degrees (range, 5-135degrees) preoperatively, and 3.7degrees (range, 0-15degrees), 112degrees (range, 75-135degrees) postoperatively. The Knee Rating Scale improved from 66.5 points (range, 15-83) to 87.5 points (range, 79-98). There were two cases of complications, dislocation of patella and superficial wound problem in each case. In conclusion, wear was the most common cause of failure of primary TKA. The results of revision in infected TKA were less favorable than that of wear and loosening. The prosthetic design and thickness of polyethylene were the most important factors related to wear. The tibial component of PCA and patellar component of Miller-Galante had significant wear problems.

There are many controversies in ability of articular cartilage to heal full thickness defect. Generally, it is reported that full thickness defects of articular cartilage filled with organizing hematoma and granulation tissues, which converted to chondroid tissues. It is clear that the size of defect was related to the repair of articular cartilage. Though cartilagenous material fills the defect and restores the surface continuity, it may undergo degeneration, and lead to localized focus of osteoarthritis. Multiple drilling through subchondral bone could be a kind of treatment in articular cartilage defect. Author conducted an experiment for the full thickness defect of articular cartilage in rabbit. After multiple drilling of articular cartilage, the repair of defect was examined histologically until eighth week. Results were as followings ; l. At lst. week, the defect was repaired by fibrovascular proliferation and granulation tissue. 2. At 3rd. week, hyaline cartilage consisted of normal chondrocyte was formed. 3. At 8th. week, subchondral plste was regenerated completely. 4. All defects that were less than 3 mm. in diameter were healed. More repairs were observed in case with the wider defects if the defects were within 3mm. in diameter. 5. The metachromasia was observed with toluidine blue stain. The reformed cartilage shows slight purple(Grade II) to moderate purple(Grade III) at third week and near normal (Grade IV) at fourth week. In conclusion, multiple drilling may be an effective method of treatment in articular cartilage defect. It is considered that multiple drilling with a 3mm. Steinmann pin may be the most convenient and effective method of the cartilage healing.

Fractures of the capitellum humeri are rare and the recommendations for treatment vary. It can involve a significant portion of the articular surface, rendering the elbow joint unstable. In this situation, it is desirable to reduce and internally fix the capitellar fragment, because this restores the articular surface and augments joint stability. We experienced two cases of capitellar fractures which one case was spontaneously anatomical reduced and the other case was treated by open reduction. In one case the capitellar fragment was spontaneous reduced to a stable position although it was noticed radiographically as an unstable displaced fracture preoperatively. The other case was treated by open reduction and internal fixation with 3.5mm, small, AO, cannulated screw and K-wire. Both cases are reported here with references.

Many types of meniscal anomalies have been reported. The authors encountered two cases of anomalous insertion of the anterior horn of the medial menisci to the lateral femoral condyle which ran along the course of the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) without connecting ACL. These anomalies were noted during arthroscopic surgery of the ipsilateral knee for a torn discoid meniscus, and a patellar fracture. A 34-year-old woman had a horizontal tear of the lateral discoid meniscus. We performed arthroscopic partial meniscectomy of the inner torn portion of the lateral discoid meniscus and contoured it to resemble a normal meniscus. An anomalous insertion of the medial meniscus was found on examination of the joint during surgery. A 32-year-old man had a patellar fracture and we performed reduction under arthroscopy and internal fixation with cannulated screws. The same anomalous insertion of the medial meniscus was found on examination of the joint during surgery. We report the cases with review of literature.

The soleal line in 115 (left; 61, right; 54) cases of tibiae was studied morphometrically by the method of Mysorekar and Nandedkar. 1. The soleal line showed a uniform character throughout in 26 cases and a mixed characters in 89 cases. The bones showing uniform character were seen generally as a lineal line or wide line. 2. The soleal line having mixed characters divided into three parts. In the upper and middle thirds, the major type of line was wide line. In the lower third, the line was commonly seen as a lineal line. In about 12% of the bones examined the line was seen as a groove, particularly in the middle and lower thirds. 3. The soleal line commenced 1-2cm below the fibular facet In about 61% of cases. 4. The length of the soleal line was 10.5cm, and the ratio to that of the tibia was about 30%. The results of this study provide the characters of the soleal tne of the tibia in Korean. The soleal line, unlike the textbook description, generally shows mixed characters of a line.
