Female urethral injury are very uncommon and encountered during traffic accident, trauma, instrumentation, operation and delivery. Treatment modalities are determined by the level of urethral injury. The result was better in the cases of rapid operative treatment than delayed one. In this report the clinical findings, patterns of injury and surgical managementof 4 cases were reviewed.

During the period of 9.5 years from September, 1985 to March, 1995, 32 cases with spontaneous closure in simple ventricular septal defect(VSD) were observed and evaluated at Yeungnam University Hospital, and those were confirmed by 2D-echocardiogram. The results were as follows: 1. Among these 32 cases, there were 23 cases(71.9%) of perimembranous VSD, 8 cases(25.0%) of muscular VSD and 1 case(3.1%) of subarterial VSD. Septal aneurysms appears to be main mechanism of spontaneous closure of VSD because of the presence of septal aneurysm in all cases with spontaneous ',;losure of a perimembranous VSD. 2. The size of the defect was variable in diameter, but 27 cases(81.2%) were less than 5 mm. 3. The mean age was 12.1 months at spontaneous closure with the range from 1 month old to 72 months. 4. The mean weight was 9.0 kg at spontaneous closure. 5.--Among these 32 cases, 3 cases had the clinical evidence of cardimegaly or congestive hert -failure during infancy. 6. Male to female sex ratio was 1.5:1

PAS staining was used to assess the glycogen content of psoriatic epidermis, in 35 patients with active psoriasis, 25 patients with inactive psoriasis and 21 normal control subjects. The investigations were also carried out by the disease type, sex, duration of illness, site of biopsy and subjective syrrptom such as itching sensation. Being compared with the active, izractive and normal control groups,7 of R5 active cases and 4 of 25 inactive cases were resulted in strong PAS positive reactions. In 21 ornmal aontrol group, the most cases gave PAS negative reaction, except 2 cases of the week PAS positive reactions. Being compared with disease types, 11 of 5I psoriasis vulgaris cascs was resulted in strong PAS positive reactions and psoriasis guttata cases were resulted in slight PAS positive reaction. among half of their ca.ses. Being iompared with the FAS staining intensity in accordance with the itcbing eensation, R of 6 with severe itching and 4 of 29 cases without itching were resultel in strong PA3 posltive reactions. There were no significant differenees in the sex, age, duration of illness and biopsy site aspects.
