Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a sarcoma that occurs principally in soft tissue and typically involved the skeletal muscle and deep fascia. Although it is one of the most common types of soft tissue sarcoma in late adult life, the involvement of the head and neck area is relatively rare. MFH shows variable histologic appearance, and may be classified into several subtypes(storiform-pleomorphic, myxoid, giant cell, inflammatory, angiomatoid) and the storiform-pleomorphic type is the most common type. The authors have recently experienced a case of MFH in the right maxillary sinus, and report it with a brief review of the related literature.

Osteosarcoma is the most frequently encountered primary malignant tumor of the bone. But primary osteosarcoma of the skull(POS) is rare. The author presents a case of skull neoplasm identified as osteogenic sarcoma. A twentyseven-years-old male patient was admitted because of painful swelling at left temporal and zygomatic area with impairment of extraocular movement. Chest film and long bone series showed no evidence of abnormality. Skull films revealed round irregular bony destructive area at the left pterional area. CT and MRI revealed expansile destruction of the left sphenoid bone, lateral orbital wall and temporal bone within the hemorrhagic mass lesions which showed wall enhancement. Histologic examination confirmed a rare variant of osteosarcoma of the telangiectatic type.

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus infection (PRRSV) was confirmed by serology histopathology immunohistochemistry and bacteriologic examination in young pigs. Four suckling and six weaned piglets submitted from three different farms showed coughing sneezing labored rapid abdominal respiration lethargy and anorexia. Grossly apical and cardiac lung lobes appeared mottled with pale to dark tan discoloration. Submandibular and bronchial lymph nodes were tan and enlarged. All piglets were seropositive for PRRSV antibodies by the indirect immunofluorescent antibody(IFA) test. Microscopically lung lesions were characterized by hyperplasia and hypertrophy of type 2 pneumocytes infiltration of mononuclear cells in alveolar intersitium accumulation of necrotic debris in alveolar spaces accompanied by proliferation of alveolar multinucleated syncytial cells. Using immunohistochemical technique PRRSV antigens were demonstrated in alveolar macrophages and type 2 pneumocytes in histologic lung tissue sections. Also PRRSV antigens were detected in brain lymph nodes spleen and heart. Additionally piglets showed nonsuppurative meningoencephalitis mandibular necrotic lymphadenopathy splenic atrophy and myocardial necrosis.

경구경계부 식도에 발생된 악성종양의 경우에는 진단시에 이미 식도에 밀접해 있는 기관과 주요 신경 그리고 혈관등에 침범되어 있는 경우가 많으며, 또한 외과적 절제에도 기술적인 어려움이 있어 식도암 의 발생부위중 가장 예후가 불량한 부위로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 진행형 경흥경계부 식도암 환자 1례에서 합병치료로 종양의 묶췄를 향상시킨후, 흥강경 을 이용한비개흥적 종격동 림프절적출과 경부의 림프절을 확대적출함으로써 근치도III의 고치요도술을 시행하였다. 술후 끌병증의 발병없이 식도조영술에서 양호한 조명제의 통과소견을 보였으며, 병 리 조직학적 소견상 조기식도암(TINOMO, SM2)으로 판정되어 술후 합병치료는 시행하지 않고 경과를 관찰중에 있다.

Thyroglossal duct cyst is common midline mass, which is related to hyoid bone and may show signs of inflammation. Carcinoma arising in the thyroglossal duct cyst is rare, occuring in less than 1% of thyroglossal duct cyst. Papillary adenocarcinoma is the most common histologic type(75-85%). The initial treatement of choice is wide excision of the tumor bearing tissue(Sistrunk procedure), resection of associated lymph node alone is enough when they are small and isolated, but a modified neck dissection must be done if regional involvement is more extensive. Its prognosis is excellent(the incidence of regional lymph node metastasis is 7% compare to 89% for papillary cancer of thyroid gland proper).

Purpose : The purpose of this pilot experiment was to evaluate early bone response in two types of coated implants using the rabbit tibia model. Materials and Methods : Screw type titanium implants manufactured with a calcium metaphosphate (CMP) coating and hydroxyapatite (HA) coating were placed in the tibiae of 3 New Zealand White rabbits. The bone responses at 2 weeks after insertion were evaluated and compared by histomorphometry. Results : There was no significant difference in bone-to-implant contact between the groups (P>.05). However, some qualitative differences on histologic views were found. Conclusions : CMP-coating is suggested to be the preferred candidate for fast osseointegration over HAcoating.

Glomus tumors are uncommon soft tissue tumors which usually found in a subungual lesion of hand, producing pain. This uncommon tumors have been reported in other locations, including nasal cavity, stomach, mediastinum, heart, lung, and vagina etc. Especially, it was a very rare case found in an extradigital lesion of foot. Glomus tumors should not be ruled out for an extradigital mass lesion of foot and also any other locations. Although glomus tumors are generally considered a benign lesion, it should be considered that glomus tumors have also reported as a malignant type tumor, even the diagnosis based on histologic features not clinical one.

A foreign body granuloma is a non-allergic chronic inflammatory reaction that is mainly composed of multinucleated giant cells. Foreign body granulomas may occur after the administration of any dermal filler. Factors such as the volume of the injection, impurities present in the fillers, and the physical properties of fillers affect granuloma formation. The formation of granulomas involves five phases: protein adsorption, macrophage adhesion, macrophage fusion, and crosstalk. The clinical and pathologic features of granulomas vary depending on the type of filler that causes them. Foreign body granulomas can be treated effectively with intralesional corticosteroid injections. Surgical excisions of granulomas tend to be incomplete because granulomas have ill-defined borders and moreover, surgical excisions may leave scars and deformities.

Thoracoscopy, mediastinoscopy and/or mediastinotomy and explo-thoracotomy were performed and confirmed diagnosis of the 26 cases of the mediastinal tumors, those were admitted and treated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular surgery, Chonbuk National University Hospital, from June,1976 to September, 1986. We experienced 7 thoracoscopies, 7 mediastinoscopies &/or mediastinotomies, and 12 explo-thoracotomies. The most common histologic type was teratoma and lymphoma [6 cases]. Of the 26 cases of the histologically confirmed mediastinal tumor, 19 were benign tumors and 7 were malignants. 19 cases of benign tumors were surgically resected with good result but one case of the surgically resected malignant thymoma was recurred 4 months later. 6 cases of malignant lymphoma and one case of recurred malignant thymoma were treated with chemo-and radiation therapy. Thoracoscopy and mediastinoscopy with tissue biopsy were simple in procedure and had a tissue diagnosis with obtaining the pathologic tissue in a acceptable complication rate and reduced exploratory thoracotomy.

Pulmonary blastoma is a very rare, primary, malignant neoplasm of the lung. The tumor typically is large, well-defined mass and arises in the periphery of the lung. Histologically, it resembles fetal lung tissue evoking the concept that these tumors are drived from the primitive pluripotential pulmonary blastema, but controversy also exit about the nature of this tumor. Clinical evaluation is inconsistant and unreliable as to the diagnostic determination of the tumor type and degree of malignancy. Therefore, diagnosis is usually based on histologic findings. The prognosis after adequate resection appears to be better than for other malignant tumors of the lungs. We experienced a case of pulmonary blastoma occurring in 56-year-old female. She was hospitalized for evaluation of an abnormal shadow in the left lower lung field which found incidentally on chest roentgenogram. We approached the lesion though left posterolateral thoracotomy and performed the left lower lobectomy. The microscopic findings of resected specimen revealed characteristic appearance of pulmonary blastoma. The postoperative course was uneventful without complication.
