In order to investigate the relationship between stress and fatigue of research workers, we surveyed 246 research workers from September 15 to October 20, 1997. The results were as follows ; 1. Females, 20~29 years of ages, singles are associated with significantly higher stress symptoms and fatigue symptoms 2. The research workers who drink nearly everyday complained significantly lower stress symptoms and fatigue symptoms. 3. The research workers who excercise regularly complained significantly lower stress symptoms and fatigue symptoms. 4. The research workers who are somewhat satisfied by Job and income complained lower stress symptoms and fatigue symptoms. 5. The high risk stress group was 4.5 % of the research workers. The latent stress group was 93.9 % and healthy group was 1.6 %. The research workers belonged to high risk stress group complained significantly higher fatigue symptoms.

Authers observed one case of typical reactive perforating collagenosis (RPC) which did not seem to have been described in the Korean literature. A 19 year old male patient complained of a skin eruption involving his face, upper and lower extremities, and trunk in June 1973. The skin eruption appeared at the age of 10 and consisted of discrete papules of which the earliest lesion was a pinhead-sized, skin-colord papule, but it became older, it increased in size and developed a small central area of umbilication containing keratinous material. As new papules continued to develop, the older lesions regressed and disappeared with residual scar. No subjective symptom was obtained except intermittent, mild itching sensation which probably due to a irritation. The Keobner's phenomenon was observed on the dorsum of hands. He has acne vulgaris on the face with many of the individual comedones showing development into RPC. He also had a chronic maxillary sinusitis which was seemed to aggravate the skin eruption. In follow up period (about 5 months), the sinusitis was cured with operation, but the skin eruption was not improved. The family history was negative. Histopathological studies revealed typical RPC, i.e., a cup-shaped epidermal depression of which center was lacked the epidermis was noted, and through it, necrobiotic connective tissue, degenerating inflammatory- cells and collagen bundles are extruded to form a plug. Diagnosis was confirmed by clinical appearance and typical histopathologic features. The patient did not responed to topical application of 0. 1% Retinoic acid solution and Vitamin A and D.

A 17 year old female with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome is presented. Of particular interest was presence of congenital heart anomaly. The nevus flarnmeus invoIved her entire right leg and foot with hypertrophy, elongation and partial ulecration. Elongation of the right leg Iead cornpensatory vertebral scoliosis (Fig.1,2). The cutaneous temperature of affected side was higher than the other side, and. was larger on somatometry and osteometry (Table 1). On auscultation, grade III systolic blowing murmur was heard on left upper sternal border with second heart sound splitting. Electrocardiograrn revealed complete right bundle branch block (Fig. 3). Chest X-ray revealed cardiomegaly, increase 3 hilar shadaws and rnild pulmonary congestion (Fig. 4). Above mentioned signs suggests strongly secundum type of atrial septal defect. Femoral angiography didnt show arteriovenous malformation (Fig. 5). Authors experienced this rare variant of Klippel-Trenaunzy-Weber Syndrome acco- mapanying with congenital heart anamaly, and report this with review of literatures.

BACKGROUND: For the evaluation of pulmonary nrtery branches after operation of right ventricular outflow obstructive disease, we reviewed the usefulness of both simple X-ray and lung perfusion scan with 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin compared with cardiac angiography. METHODS: From March, 1986 to July, 1993, at Seoul National University Children;s Hospital, we chose 23 cases who underwent both simple X-ray and cardiac angiography among the patients who had distinct difference between right and left pulmonary blood flow in lung perfusion scan after operation of right ventricular outflow obstructive disease. So we calculated the ratio of right and left pulmonary blood flow and Spearman correlation coefficient. RESULTS: Of the 23 cases, 17 cases were tetralogy of Fallot, 4 cases pulmonary atresia, 1 case double outlet right ventricle, and 1 case truncus arteriosus. The mean age at poeration was 27 months, and the mean postoperative follow-up period was for 68 months. The correlation coefficient between cardiac angiography and simple X-ray was 0.86(p<0.01), and that beteen cardiac angiography and lung perfusion scan was 0.80(p<0.01). CONCLUSION: The cardiac angiography has been known as the best diagnostic tool for the evaluation of pulmonary artery branches after operation of right ventricular outflow obstructive ddisease, but we proposed that the lung perfusion scan should be widely used because its results were similar with those of cardiac angiography.
