  • Purpose: This study aimed to understand the experiences of women under 40 years of age with gynecologic cancer. Methods: Semi-structured individual in-depth interviews were conducted with 14 Korean female patients aged 21~39 years with gynecologic cancer. The data were analyzed using Corbin and Strauss' grounded theory approach, including open coding, context analysis, and integrating categories. Results: Grounded theory analysis revealed nine categories and a core category of 'the journey to find my life after losing the life as a typical woman.' The categories that emerged as the conditions are 'Unwelcomed guest, cancer,' 'Completely devastated life as an ordinary woman,' 'Uncertain future,' 'Losing my physical characteristics as a woman,' and 'Life tied with treatments.' The actions/interactions were 'Decrease of interpersonal relationships,' 'A lonely battle to overcome alone,' and 'The power to overcome hardships.' The consequence was 'Live my own life.' Conclusion: This study contributes to the development of a substantive theory of the experience of gynecologic cancer in young women, which has been on the rise in recent years. The study's results are expected to be used as a basis for providing nursing care to help young women with gynecologic cancer adapt to their disease.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the determinants of obesity during adolescnece. A total of 726 adolescents living in rural areas in Korea had been observed for four years from 1992 to 1996 regarding their diet, sexual maturity, blood profile and physical growth. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to identify priorities fo the importance between the factors influencing obesity. The average nutrient intake over the three year period was higher than that of the Korean Recommended Dietary Allowances. The prevalence of obesity for the subjects based on BMI was 9.5%. Results of the stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that blood components and sexual maturity were more significant factors for determining the obesity than the dietary factors. The result may suggest that to understand obesity in children it is necessary to develop on analytical model for the children rather than using the existing analytical model developed mostly for adult patients of obesity. The model should include a wide range of variables such as diet, sexual maturity and changes in blood.

  • Nodular fasciitis is a benign reactive proliferation that usually involves the deep fascia. Although it is relatively common in the adult population, it is often misdiagnosed as sarcoma due to its rapid growth and pathological features. It rarely presents as a chest wall tumor in young patients. Here, we report a case of nodular fasciitis involving the chest wall of an 18-year-old woman and its surgical management. This case underscores the need to consider nodular fasciitis in the differential diagnosis of chest wall tumors in young patients.

  • A 35-year-old woman, previously treated for systemic metastases from retroperitoneal yolk sac tumor, presented with progressive painful paraparesis. Preoperative images showed severe cord compression by the metastatic infiltration of the lumbar vertebrae and epidural mass as well as a huge retroperitoneal mass. While performing unremarkable surgery in prone position, the patient abruptly fell into hypoxic insults and circulatory arrest. Intraoperative pulmonary tumor embolism was deemed a cause of death. When planning operative procedure for this dangerous malignancy, scrupulous manipulation is mandated and the possibility of fatal pulmonary tumor embolism should also be addressed and fully discussed preoperatively.

  • 본 연구는 도서의 대출정보를 활용해 가중네트워크(PFNET :PathFinder Network) 분석을 수행함으로써 특수 계층으로서 남녀 노령자에 의해 자주 읽히는 도서의 주제와 특성을 이해하고 이들의 독서 양태가 일반 성인 남녀와 어떠한 차이를 보이는지 확인하였다. 이를 위해 남녀 노령자와 일반 성인 남녀로 구성된 4개 집단을 대상으로 도서관 빅데이터의 인기 대출도서를 기반으로 동시대출도서 행렬을 산출하고 이를 활용해 네트워크 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 PNNC(Parallel Nearest Neighbor Clustering) 알고리즘으로 대출도서 군집을 형성한 후 대출도서에 계산된 중심성지수를 기반으로 피어슨 상관분석(Pearson Correlation Analysis)을 수행해 집단간의 상관성을 파악하였다. 그 결과 자기계발, 재태크, 육아 등 다양한 분야의 도서를 대출하는 일반 성인 남녀에 비해 노령자 계층은 한국현대소설에 집중된 독서 활동을 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 특정 인기 저자의 저작에 집중된 도서 대출 경향을 보였다. 한편 여성 노령자가 일본소설, 영미소설을 포함해 상대적으로 다양한 분야를 대출하는 반면 남성 노령자는 극단적으로 한국대하소설에 집중하는 경향을 나타냈다. 상관분석에서도 남성 노령자는 성인 남성과 r=-0.222의 약한 음의 상관성을 보였으며, 다른 모든 집단과도 음의 방향성을 보여 대출 도서의 중심성이 반대 경향을 가지는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • Purpose: The objective of the study is to describe the experience of health care activities of the menopausal women through phenomenological methodology. Methods: Seven menopausal women participated in the study. Open in-depth interviews were used to collect data, and data were analyzed by the phenomenological methods suggested by Colaizzi. Results: The data were separated into 4 categories of uncomfortable life due to physical and emotional change, building consistency in daily life through regulating a routine rhythm, recovering normality, recovering stability, and 8 clusters of themes; securing regularity in daily life, securing availability in daily life, regulating through elimination and diminishment, regulating through supplementation, being patient and control self, expressing self, review the context and exchanging views, expending a world through one's faith. Conclusion: Participants accepted menopause not as a disease but as a natural course of life and realized that menopausal health problems could be naturally settled in general health care activities in daily life.

  • Intracranial teratomas are diagnosed mostly in young population and usually involve midline structure. We report a case of mature teratoma in an adult patient with unusual location in cerebellar hemisphere. A 47-year-old woman presented with severe headache and nausea. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a posterior fossa lesion with cerebellar hemispheric location not involving midline. Histological examination of surgical specimen showed fully matured representative tissues of the three germ layers confirming teratoma. This is a rare example of mature teratoma with unusual age of the patient and location.

  • Benign triton tumor (BTT) or neuromuscular hamartoma is an uncommon tumor composed of mature neural and well-differentiated striated muscular elements. Its development is exceptionally rare in the adult and head region. This report describes a case of adulthood BTT that occurred in the orbit. The patient was a 53-year-old woman who presented with right periorbital swelling and pain in eyeball over 2 months. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-enhancing mass surrounding optic nerve and ocular muscles in the right retrobulbar area. The tumor was subtotally removed via transcranial approach. Its pathological diagnosis was confirmed to be a neuromuscular hamartoma. She developed diplopia postoperatively. Adulthood BTT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of head and neck tumors. It is also important to make adequate therapeutic strategy to avoid postoperative neural dysfunction.

  • Congenital diaphragmatic hernia through Bochdalek foramen, posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia, is the result of a congenital malformation of the posterolateral region of the diaphragm. Bochdalek hernia is the most common type of congenital diaphragmatic hernia, but it is a extremely rare anomaly which is detected in adulthood because it has severe cardiopulmonary and gastrointestinal symptoms after birth immediately.We experienced two cases of Bochdalek hernia which were detected in adulthood. Among them, one was a 43 years old man who was treated with simple closure in left Bochdalek hernia and the other was 41 years old woman who was treated with patch closure using silastic sheet in right Bochdalek hernia. Their postoperative courses were uneventiful. So we report two cases of rare Bochdalek hernia which was detected in adulthood with review of literatures.
