1.Three Cases of Familial Benign Chronic Pemphigus.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1979;17(5):379-383
Familial Renign Chronic Femphigus(FRCP) is rare, persistent and vesicobullous genodermatoai. Three casee of FRCP with typical clinical and histapathological findings are reported. The first case of FBCP was 27-year-oId man who had recurrent episodes of grou vesicles and rust with miId pruritue at the posterior neck, in both axillae and in inguinal area for 10 years. The second case was 49-year-old woman with skin lesions of recurrent persistent. vesicles, pustules on the erythematous skin, crust and lichenification on the flexural area of extrimeties, axillae, ingumal and neck area for 10 yeara. The third case was 49-year-old male patient who had recurrent pruritic grouped vesicles with crust on the neck and axillary area. In all three patients, skin eruptions usually began and or aggravated in the spring or summer and tend to heal spontaneously in the autumn and winter and showed positive Nikolsky sign. The only one case of the reported three casea had familiaI history of skin lesions similar to FRCP. Histopat,holag;ic finding of biopsy specimens from the vesicular eruption showed auprabasal vesiculation with acantholysis, lacunae and villi formation in all 3 cases.

Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1986;27(4):657-666
High myopia, often called malignant, pathologic or degenerative myopia, involves a progressive elongation of globe, accompanied by degenerative changes of the retina and choroid. Continued stretching and degeneration of the choroid causes eyes with severe myopia to develop breaks in Bruch's membrane which, called lacquer cracks, and permits neovascular proliferation from the choriocapillaris into the subretinal pigment epithelial space. Neovascularization associated with severe myopia deteriorates central visual acuity due to exudation and/or hemorrhage. Laser photocoagulation therapy is useful in treating neovascular membrane outside the foveal avascular zone or extending to the edge of the perifoveal capillary network. We have evaluated three patients with macular hemorrhage which associated with high myopic choroidal degeneration. Subretinal neovascular membrane was detected by fluorecein angiography and was treated with monochromatic Argon green laser photocoagulation in two patients indicated. The visual acuities were improved. But one patient who had macular hemorrhage involving both foveas could not be treated with laser photocoagulation. Then his visual acuity severly decreased. We give our experiences with the review of other papers in this report.

Author have experienced 3 cases of intractable total traumatic hyphema on conservative medical treatment and have good results after surgical management by using Model 800(A) Ocutome vitrectomy instrument. For evacuation of blood clot in anterior chamber. The conclusion were as follow; 1. We experienced no significant intraoperative complication. 2. All 3 cases achieved intraocular presure controls in early post operative state and these controls were sustained till now without any antiglaucomatous agent. 3. Good final visual acuity was obtained in pure total hyphema in which there was no other associated intraocular injury at the time of trauma.

The authors have reviewed 71 cases (70 patients) of the ankle fractures that were treated through the admission in Orthopedic Department, Paik Foundation Hospital, from June 1972 to April 1978. The average duration of the follow-up waa 15 months. The summary of the results were as follows; 1. Of the 71 cases, male was 54 cases and female 17 cases. The average age of the patients was 32. 2. The main cause of the injuries was traffic accident, and the other causes were sliding down and falling from a height, industrial accident, and sports injury in order. 3. By the classification of Lauge-Hansen, the pronation-external rotation and,supination-adduction types were commoner than the other types. 4. Open reduction was performed in 48 cases, and closed reduction in 23 cases. 5. The average duration of the cast immobilization after the closed reduction was 8 weeks, and that of the open reduction was 6 weeks. 6. The result of the treatment was better in those cases of the open reduction than that of, the closed reduction. 7. The good clinical results could be achieved by obtaining the anatomical position of the talus in the mortise and the reduction was achieved more satisfactorily when the key role of the lateral malleolus in complete reduction was well understood.

The effect of Minizide(R) (prazosine 1mg and polythiazide 0.5mg) was studied in 34 hypertensive patients (female 16 cases, male 18 cases) at the Department of Internal Medicine, Paik Hospital, In-Je Medical College between July, 1979 and August 1980 for 14 months. The patients didn't take the any drugs for one week before the clinical trial with Minizide(R), and thereafter they took minizide 1 tablet 3 times daily for 2 weeks. The blood pressure was checked before and after the trial in the supine and standing position. The results were as followings: 1) The systolic blood pressure before the treatment with Minizide in the supine position was 196+/-24mmHg and in the standing position 188+/-22mmHg. The systolic blood pressure after the treatment with minizide in the supine position was 148+/-16mmHg and in the standing position 139+/-9mmHg. 2) The diastolic blood pressure before the treatment with minizide in the supine position was 118+/-11mmHg, and in the standing position 113+/-10mmHg. The diastolic blood pressure after the treatment with minizide in the supine position was 87+/-6mmHg and in the standing position 84+/-5mmHg. 3) There was no significant orthostatic hypotension after the 34 patients. 4) There was no changes of laboratory findings after the treatment. 5) 3 of 34 hypertensive patients after the treatment complained of headache, 3 palpitation, 2 edema, 2 drowsiness, and 1 fatigability and 1 patient complained of weakness.

Epithelioma cuniculatum or plantar verrucous carcinoma shows a great tendency toward deep penetrating growth, resulting in numerous crypts filled with horny material and pus. We herein described a 44 year-old female who showed a warty, relatively round, brown to yellow colored protruding mass with many crypts filled with pus-like exudates, measuring 2.3 X 2.5 X 1.5 cm in size, and of 5 years duration. The biopsy specimen taken from the tumor mass revealed a deeply penetrating, well-differentiated squarnous cell carcinoma without nuclear anaplasia and individual cell keratinization.

10.Clinkal Observation on 28 Cases of Simplified Dacryocystorhinostomies.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1977;18(1):33-37
From January, 1973. to June, 1976 the Auther Performed simplified dacryocystorhinostomies on 28 cases with tearing and mucopurulent material discharge from the lacrimal sac. The auther's surgical technic was a modified Iliff technic and the addition of the polyethylene tube fistulization procedure for complicated case of lacrimal sac are introduced. The results of observations are sumerized: 1) Among 28 cases, 15 of the subjects r were male and 13 of the subjects were female. The ages of the patients ranged as follows: The youngest was 7 years of age and the oldest was 59 years of age. 2) The success rate of this method was 89% and Author's polyethylene tube fistulization procedure in selected case gave a higher success rate. 3) When the occulusion of the canaliculi, lower and upepr punta was noted, the polyethylene tube fistulization procedure was added. 4) Some common complicacion, mild wound bleeding and subconjuntival hemmorrhage etc, were observed. This complication could be easily controlled by adequate treatment. 5) The explanation for the obstruction was apparent in fewer than half of the patients. We can assume that the 2 children had a congenital membrane at the lower end of the tract. All of these tracts had had repeated probings. 3 patients had injuries with breaks in the bony lacrimal canal. In 2 patients the obstruction had been caused by chronic sinusitis. 6) Among the 25 successful cases, the symtoffis were relieved immediately in 24 cases, but tearing and mucopurulent material persisted in 1 case. So a probe was passed into the nose to reestablish patency of the tract. In Conclusion, the operation is simple to do and within the range of any ophthalmic surgeon. A simplified dacryocystorhinostomy is the best treatment of tearing and mucopurulent material drainage from the nasolacrimal duct.
