Radionuclide scrotal scintigraphy with 99m Tc-pertechnetate is an easy, well established, sueful and readilyavailable technique for evaluation of acute scrotum. We studied 41 cases of radionuclide scrotal scintigraphy andthe results were as follows; 1. The over all diagnostic accuracy of scrotal scintigraphy waas 93%(38/41 cases). 2.Scrotal scintigraphy was very useful and accurate in differential diagnosis of epididymo-orchitis and testiculartorsion in patient with acute scrotal pain and swelling, while there was some limitation in differential diagnosisof hematoma from acute epididymo-orchitis or torsion. 3. scintigraphy of epididymoorchitis showed increasedperfusion and radiocativity in the epididymis and/or testis and its diagnostic accuracy was 90%(19/21 cases) 4.Acute testicular torsion showed normal flow in perfusion and cold defect occupying affected testis in staticimage, while missed torsion showed slightly increased flow in perfusion image and cold defect surrounded by anuniform rim of hyperactivity (halo sign). Diagnostic accuracy of testicular torsion was 86%(6/7 cases).

Trichophyton tonsurans is a major causative agent of tinea capitis in the United States, Canada, Mezico and other Latin American countries, but the infection of T.tonsurans has not been reported in Korea. We report a case of tinea capitis caused by T. tonsurans in a 15-year-old student wrestler. He had a 3*3cm sized non-inflammatory alopecia with black dots on the right occipital area of the scalp. The diagnosis was established by a hght microscopic examination of the affected hairs and by mycological studies from cultures. To our knowledge, this is the first case in which T. tonsurans has been isolated in Korea, It is likely that the student acquired the infection through contact with a foreign wrestler during interaational games and practice. We should be concerned about the potential of spread of this infection in our country.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the experiences of the use of external breast prostheses among breast cancer survivors in Korea. METHODS: A qualitative descriptive study was conducted, using focus groups. Data were collected from breast cancer survivors who were patients of C women's hospital in Seoul, Korea. Data were analyzed using content analysis in order to identify significant themes. RESULTS: Participants included forty breast cancer survivors who had mastectomy as a surgical treatment. Four themes emerged from the collected data were: 1) concern over the high price of external breast prosthesis, 2) irregular use of external breast prosthesis, 3) unsatisfied with mastectomy bra, and 4) wanting to hide or not to talk about using breast prosthesis openly. CONCLUSION: Since most participants reported irregular use and negative experiences related to external breast prosthesis or mastectomy bra use, healthcare workers should allow more time for proper fitting and counseling and consulting with breast cancer survivors. In addition, health care providers as well as family and friends should keep in mind that cancer survivors need support that can help them cope by using positive reframing. Furthermore, improvements in the coverage of costs and services are needed for these women. This would be helpful for breast prosthesis users.
