The Japanese government downgraded a Korean medical college being attached to the Daehan hospital to a medical training center blaming upon a lack of education in Korea. But the actual curriculum and the years required for completing a course of study in the Korean medical college were equivalent to those of the Japanese medical college. Furthermore, the Japanese government discarded the financial support for medical school students. So they should pay their tuitions and other stipends by themselves. The Japanese government forced a private institute to establish an endowed school by the legal act of college. It enabled to classify a medical education system with the judicial support. For the example of Severance Medical School, it reformed faculty, curriculum and facility according to the legal standard of a college act. Therefore, Severance Medical School was able to be upgraded to a medical college. But there was a limitation even for the government schools under the colonial era. It was not possible to train important medical human resource who enabled to supervise the modern medical system in Korea. On one hand, almost every important medical human resource such as a military doctor, and a professor, who should have trained in Korea in the Great Han Period, was trained in Japan. On the other hand, fostering general doctors, who practiced medicine with hands-on experience, was the purpose of medical education in Korea whether the medical school was governmental or private. Since the purpose of Severance Medical College was to foster general doctors, it was able to grow within the colonial medical system. The purpose of medical missionaries, who promoted the spread of gospel with the western medical support, enforced the Japanese colonial logics that the Japanese government could educate and develop Korea with the introduction of western civilization. Although it was later comparing to the government medical school, Severance Medical College enabled to certify the medical license automatically to the graduates from the school. The reason that the Japanese government allowed for Severance Medical College to issue the automatic medical license was to keep the colonial structure of Japanese in Korea.

Vitamin A and its metabolite, retinoic acid, have been recommended for the treatment of psoriasis, ichthyosis, acne vulgaris and Darier's disease which resulted from abaormal regulatory function of keratinocytes. In recent years retinoic acid analogs (retinoids) have been synthesized and shown to be more potent and less toxic than retinoic acid. Since these drugs are therapeutically effective for skin diseases, only with longterm adminiatration of large doses, their toxicities must be seriously considered. The liver is the main site for both storage and excretion of vitamin A and ita derivatives, which may produce injury to the liver and other organs as a result of excess of lysosomal enzyme control. Fatty vacuoles, infiltration of inflammatory cells, focal necrosis, increase in lysosomal enzymes, distension of the RER, decrease in the ribosomes, swelling of the mitochondria, and proliferation of the SER within the hepatocytes have been observed in livers of vitamin A- as well as retinoic acid-treated rats. Its excess may also cause mucous metaplasia of secretory cells of the pancreas. (countinued...)

Six cases of congenital coronary arteriovenous fistulae were diagnosed radiographically and confirmed afteroperation at Seoul National University Hospital in recent three and a quarter years since 1979. The clinical andradiological findings with the emphasis on the cinecardiographic findings were analysed. The summaries of theanalysis are as follows; 1. Among 6 cases, 2 cases were male and 4 cases were female. Age dsitribution was from 3months to 19 years. 2. In chest x-ray findings, 5 cases had cardiomegaly. Among these 5 cases, increase ofpulmonary vascularity was in 3 cases. Chest X-ray finding of the rest 1 case was within normal limit. 3. Thecoronary arteriovenous fistula orginated from the right coronary artery in 5 cases and from the single left coronary artery in 1 case. In 5 cases, a coronary arteriovenous fistula drained into the right ventricle and in 1case, a fistula from a SA node branch of the right coronary artery into the right atrium. 4. In 5 cases, a mainright coronary artery was dilated. Among these 5 cases, aneurysmal dilatation of main right coronary artery was in2 cases, saccular aneurysmal dilatation of distal portion of right coronary artery was in 2 cases and in 1 case,diffuse dilatation without aneurysm formation of a main right coronary artery. In 1 case, SA node branch of theright coronary artery was dilated with aneurysm formation. 5. For accurate diagnosis of congenital coronaryarteriovenous fistula, biplane cinecardiography is an essential procedure.
