A total of 53 gastric adenomas from endoscopically biopsied gastric mucosa were examined histopathologically. The average age at the time of endoscopic biopsy was 59 years, and gastric adenomas were found to be more frequent in the aged, particularly above the age of 50. The majority of adenomas occurred at the antrum. Concerning the shape of the adenomas, Yamada type II was more frequent(55%). All adenomas were accompanied by varying degree of intestinal metaplasia, and this findings suggest that gastric adenoma develops from intestinal metaplasia. In adenomas with severe atypia(grade III), endocrine cells(argyrophil and argentaffin cells)were markedly decreased or absent. Gastric adenocarcinomas coexistent with adenoma were seen in 5(9.4%) out of 53 cases, and were more frequent in male than female patients(sex ratio, 4 : 1) and the average age was 61.4 years. It is suggested that there is a necessity of thorough follow-up study for definitive correlation between gastric adenoma and adenocarcinoma.

수직 치근파절은 특이성을 나타내지 않기 때문에 치과의사가 정확한 진단을 하기 어렵다. 따라서 수직 치근파절의 임상적 특징, 진단적 증상을 파악하여 향후 근관치료된 치아나 치료되지 않은 치아에서 수직 치근파절의 유발인자와의 관련성 및 고찰을 통해 수직 치근파절의 예방 및 치료에 응용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 연구대상은 조선대학교 부속치과병원 치주과에 내원한 환자 중 최근 2년간 144명의 환자에서 근관치료를 받았거나 받지 않았던 치아 중 임상적 및 방사선학적으로 수직 치근파절로 진단된 156개의 증례를 대상으로 하였다. 모든 불확실한 증례에서 수직 지근파절의 최종 진단은 외과적 탐지를 통해 이루어졌고, 금이 간 치아와 관련될 수 있는 치근파절의 증례의 경우는 제외되었다. 근관치료된 치아와 치료되지 않은 치아, 환자의 나이와 성별, 치아종류 및 파절된 치근부위, 자각증상의 유무를 기준으로 각각의 수치와 백분율로 분류하였다. 수직 치근파절의 증상과 증후별로 분류하였으며, 진단방법에 의한 분류, 치료방법에 따른 분류, 근관 치료 후 수직 치근파절이 발생한 기간에 따른 분류를 시행하고 통계분석을 하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 근관치료를 받지 않았던 치아의 수직 치근파절의 발생율은 58%였다. 2. 성별에 따른 발생률에 있어서 남성의 호발양상을 나타내었다. 3. 근관치료된 치아에 있어서 치료되지 않은 치아에 비해 호발연령이 낮았다. 4. 전치부의 수직 치근파절은 관찰되지 않았으며 특히, 강한 교합력을 필요로 히는 구치부에서의 높은 발생율을 나타냈다. 5. 수직 치근파절의 가장 주된 증상 및 증후는 깊은 치주낭 깊이였다. 6. 근관 치료 후 수직 치근파절이 발생한 기간은 평균 5.7년이었다. 7. 다수 증례에 있어서 3개 이하의 결손치를 가졌고, 자각증상이 나타났다. 이상의 결괴에서 한국인에 있어서 근관치료를 받지 않은 치아의 수직 치근파절은 드문 현상이 아님을 알 수 있었고 남성과 구치부에 있어서의 높은 발생율을 알 수 있었다. 그 이유로는 강한 교합력, 딱딱한 음식의 저작습관, 치조골 흡수에 따른 낮은 저항성, 골 유연성의 저하 등으로 여겨진다. 그러나, 수직 치근파절은 아직까지 정확한 진단을 내리기는 여전히 어려운 상태이며, 이를 위한 다양한 진단방법 및 더 나은 연구가 필수적이라 하겠다. 그리고, 향후 보다 많은 증례에 대한 분석, 치주질환에 이환되지 않은 경우의 분석, 치료 후 생존 기간에 대한 고찰 등도 필요하리라 사료된다.

The occupational skin diseases in an industry of silk reeling located in Daegu city of Korea were analyzed by inspection through a mass survey for improving the workers' health, November, 1975. The subjects, 177 persons were all females, and were distributed at 18-38 years old. About two thirds were under 25 years old. The meanage was 23.6 years. The incidence of skin diseases was about 53%. It was generally divided into three groups;- the epidermic changes of those were most frequent, 47.5%, the allergic reactions were 14.7%, and athlete's foot was only four cases, 2.3%. Most frequent signs of epidermic changes was the worn-out nail, 32.3%; and the keratolysis, 28.8%; and the callus, 15.3% were followed in order. Theses were significant in five per cent level between the sections of the silk reeling and the manufacturing;-Allergic reactions and worn-out nail were more frequent in the manufacturing group than the silk reeling, and keratolysis and callus were inverted proportionally. Allergic reactions were occurred within a few months from first entrance time, and it was more frequent in the group exposed to same allergen in the past than the continuing group from first. Most of the appearing sites of theses were hands, and infrequently, it was occurred in the face, neck, trunk, knee anfeet. These epidermic changes except allergic phenomena were appeared in the fingers, palmal and dorsal surface of hands frequently contacted. But these changes and allergic reactions were generally combined with two or more kinds.

This study analyzes fifteen patients who underwent a course of radiation therpy for their vulva cancer in the Department of Radiation Oncology, College of Medicine, Yonsei University from January, 1971 to April, 1985. Four patients had initial surgery for their vulva cancer and were subsequently treated by a course of adjuvant radiation therapy. Eleven patients were given radiation therapy as the initial course of therapy, and one of these was in adjuvant setting before radical surgery. Treatment in each instance was individuilzed and usually consisted of some components of external beam, brachytherapy, and/or electron beam therapy. Primary local control rate in all cases was $53\%(8/15),\;40\%(4/10)$ in the radiation therapy alone group and $80\%(4/5)$ in the radiation therapy combined with surgery group. Treatment failures were noted in 7/10 in the radiation therapy alone group and 2/5 in the radiation therapy combined with surgery group. The most common failure site was primary site failure(vulva).

Purpose : Tumors of the foot and ankle are uncommon compared with those arising in the other sites, and the malignant tumors are rare. We analyzed the data of patients who have been diagnosed as having a tumor of the foot and ankle. Materials and Methods : Between 1989 and 1998, we treated 72 patients and analyzed on their clinical characteristics retrospectively. Results : Fifty-three cases were benign. Included are 30 cases of soft tissue tumor and 23 cases of bone tumor. Malignant tumor was in 19 cases (26%), including 17 cases of soft tissue tumor, one cases of metastatic tumor. The most common benign tumor was fibroma in soft tissue and osteochondroma in bone. Malignant melanoma was the most common malignant tumor of the foot (7 cases). The predilection site for benign tumors was around toes while for the malignant tumor mostly arises in the heel. Among 19 malignant tumors, local recurrence developed in 3 cases and the distant metastasis occurred in 8 cases. Conclusion : The ratio of malignant tumor and metastasis was high. Therefore, when we faced with a tumor of the foot and ankle, the histopathologic confirmation is essential through biopsy before the definite initial treatment.

Garre's osteomyelitis is associated with bacterial infection and bone necrosis resulting from obstruction of blood supply. The most common cause for Garre's osteomyelitis is odontogenic infection that originates from periodontal tissue or dental pulp. Subperiosteal abscess may also cause Garre's osteomyelitis in the progress of the infection. Mandible is more often affected than maxilla, most commonly in the permanent first molar region of mandible. Clinically, it results in a hard swelling over the jaw, producing facial asymmetry. Meanwhile, radiograph shows a characteristic feature of irregular pulpal cavity, showing new periosteal proliferation located in successive layers to the condensed cortical bone on stimulated site. The treatment method for Garre's osteomyelitis are removal of the infection source, root canal treatment, antibiotic medication, and incision and drainage. This report presents a case of Garre's osteomyelitis under 15 years old. The patient was successfully treated by antibiotic medication accompanied with root canal treatment. Since the symptom of pediatric patients is less severe than adult, careful diagnosis with history taking and clinical examination is necessary. Furthermore long-term follow-up examination is needed to prevent recurrence even after the symptom disapears.

Purpose: We analyzed the clinical outcome of osteosarcoma developed in distal radius and the effect of delayed treatment on prognosis. Materials and Methods: Twelve patients with distal radius osteosarcoma were analysed. We categorized patients into two groups of standard treatment or non-standard treatment. The patients of standard treatment group are all stage IIB and non-standard treatment group includes five stage IIB and one stage III. Results: Five-year overall survival and disease-free survival rates of standard treatment group were 100% and 83%. Five-year overall survival rate of non-standard treatment group was 44%. Between two group, there are differences in age, tumor size, surgery type, symptom duration. Conclusion: Distal radius osteosarcoma have good prognosis than other extremity osteosarcoma. Survival rate of non-standard treatment group were lower than standard treatment group. Although the prognosis of non standard treatment group is poorer, the duration till death was longer than that of other sites with similar condition. Further multi-institutional study should be needed.

Most supernumerary primary teeth erupt in the primary lateral incisor region and are reported to occur in 0.03 to 1.9% in the primary dentition. Most parents fail to recognize them because of their normal shape, eruption and exfoliation. Several theories have been proposed for the etiology of hyperdontia and the dental lamina hyperactivity theory is most widely accepted. When a supernumerary primary tooth develops, it is reported that there also exists a supplemental or rudimentary form of a succedaneous supernumerary tooth. Supernumerary primary teeth do not need specific treatment as 75% of them erupt and exfoliate normally Only periodic radiographic exams are necessary to find out whether there is any problem with the eruption of the succedaneous tooth. In the following two cases, a supplemental supernumerary primary tooth with a loss of the anterior developmental space was observed at the maxillary lateral incisor region. Radiographic examination revealed an impacted succedaneous supernumerary tooth at the palatal side of the supernumerary primary tooth.
