Currently, both Korea and Japan have cooperated to get a foothold in economic major countries in the Asia through the various economic cooperation and the overcoming of cultural difference in cultural interchanges between two countries. However, in the present age, two countries are on the other road in historical view and conception; the final report over 3 year studies by the two countries' history study partnership commission shows the above views; while Korea has been in base of Japan colonialization's unjustification, Japan has been in base of its facts. The aboves have proved that Japan has not taken an honest self examination and conscience over the history. Accordingly, Japan resistance volunteer memorial is proposed as the educational place to carry down the martyr's holy patriotism in later ages and practice its spirit by learning the resistance volunteer resistance volunteer movement, which focused on resisting the Japan invasion and fighting the independence.

The lipomatous of the mediastinum are fairly uncommon tumors. Since 1971, two patients with proven mediastinal lipoma and one primary liposarcoma of the mediastinum have been treated at the Seoul National University Hospital. This report reviews our experience with the review of literature. Case 1.: A 3 year old body revealed a huge round homogenous mass density in the posterior mediastinum in routine chest X-ray. The tumor mass, lipoma, was successfully removed and postoperative course was uneventful. Cases 2.: An asymptomatic 24 year old male was operated on with the preoperative diagnosis of mediastinal lipoma. His preoperative chest X-ray and CT films showed a huge anterior to middle mediastinal tumor, right, with fat density. There is no postoperative problem after successful removal of the tumor mass. Case 3. : A 24 year old female was hospitalized with the complaints of cough and chest pain. A mediastinal mass was removed, which proved to be a liposarcoma on pathologic examination. About one year later, she was found to have recurrent liposarcoma in the right chest area at the OPD follow-up. She was lost to follow-up since then.

Benign tumor of the lung are relatively uncommon and leiomyoma among these is one of the rarest tumors. Because of salient features as well as the location of the leiomyoma, which led to the destruction of the lung and subsequent pneumonectomy, the importance of early diagnosis should be emphasized. Recently, authors experienced a leiomyoma of left main stem bronchus with complete atelectasis of the lung, resected with left thoracotomy and transverse bronchotomy in a 58 year old male. The tumor resected was composed of dense interlacing spindle cells by hematoxilin-eosin and also trichrome stains. At repeated bronchoscopic examination postoperatively, one and three months later, there was no evidence of any residual or recurrent tumors. For the universal rarity of the leiomyoma in the bronchus or lung and also there is no report in the reviews of the Journal of Korean Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery since volume one, 1968, authors report a case with the foreign literature reviews.

A 75-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of a pericardial effusion.After 3 L of blood-stained pericardial fluid was drained, clinical examination together with echocardiography and chest computed tomography showed a tumor in the right atrium. At operation a pedunculated vascular tumor was found with a broad base which was embedded in the atrial wall and extended into the pericardium.A wide resection was performed resulting in a large defect of the right atrial wall. The defect was reconstructed with a pericardial patch. The patient did well postoperatively, but bloody pleural effusion developed later, presumably because of pulmonary metastasis. The patient died 2 months after surgery as a result of respiratory failure.

This report describes a three-month-old Korean domestic kitten presented with dehydration and poor body condition. Physical examination revealed abdominal distension. Rectal diagnosis was unachievable due to the small rectum diameter. X-ray radiography and endoscopy confirmed presence of abdominal distension and indicated a stricture located 1.5 cm from the anus. A balloon was gently inserted into the rectum and inflated several times followed by triamcinolone injection. Four months later, same procedures were repeated. This report is the first to describe the use of balloon dilation of a rectal stricture followed by intralesional triamcinolone injection in a small cat with poor condition.

Hemangiopericytoma [HPC] is a rare tumor with uncommon location in the central nervous system. We report a rare case of sellar and suprasellar HPC mimicking pituitary adenoma in a patient initially seen with the symptoms of bitemporal hemianopsia, headache, and panhypopituitarism. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a contrast-enhancing soft tissue mass arising from the pituitary fossa, with apparent compression of the chiasm and involving the cavernous sinus. Subtotal resection of the tumor was achieved via a pterional approach. Histopathological examination identified the tumor as a HPC. Nine years later, the tumor recurred. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of sellar and suprasellar HPC in Korea.

Two patients, one with glioblastoma multiforme [GM] in the right thalamus and the other with meningioma at the right frontal convexity, had suffered bilateral cortical blindness after transtentorial herniation. On one of those patients, bilateral cortical blindness had occurred due to acute obstructive hydrocephalus caused by GM and on the other patient, cortical blindness had developed after acute hemorrhage from meningioma. Bilateral occipital lobes of those patients showed signal change on the brain magnetic resonance image [MRI]. There were no ophthalmologic abnormalities on fundoscopy and ophthalmologic examination. After recovery of consciousness, cortical blindness was detected in both patients, and during gradual recovery period, visual function was slowly recovered. The pattern of visual evoked potential [VEP] at 7 weeks and 12 weeks after herniation was normalized gradually. Cortical blindness due to herniation was reversible, even though the high signals of bilateral visual cortex still existed on MRI 16 month later in case 2.

Objectives : Cho Wonhui published his book "Ounyukgi-Uihakbogam", in which Ungi was used for clinical purposes, but his life is hardly known. Conclusions & Conclusions : Cho Wonhui passed the Jinsa exam in 1894 and entered Seonggyungwan. Gojong recommended him to study medicine, and in 1907, he treated a person (later Taisho Emperor) who visited the Korea Empire and achieved his reputation. He was invited to Japan with this opportunity and received a degree from Meiji Emperor, a philosophical doctor of medicine. He passed the medical intern examination in 1923, and in 1938, he published the book "Ounyukgi-Uihakbogam". After 6 25, the Ceonundang oriental medicine clinic was opened in Busan and patients were treated. In 1963, he died at the age of 90.: This study met Cho Wonhui's descendants and talked about the life of Cho Wonhui and comprehensively summarized the related data.

This paper is devoted to the examination of the identity of the Sogdian descendants and their historical role in the second millennium CE. More specifically, it discusses the Sogdian connection to the later Iranic-speaking peoples of Central Asia, namely, the Sarts and the Tajiks. It then discusses the symbiotic relationship between the Sogdian descendants and the Mongols and the Mongol descendants (Chaghatays and Uzbeks) in Central Asia. In sum, this paper argues that the Sogdians did not perish after the Arab conquest of Central Asia in the eighth century CE. They survived under new exonyms Sart and Tajik. Like the Sogdians in pre-Islamic Central Asia, the Tajiks or Sarts played important historical roles in the Mongol and post-Mongol states of Central Asia, maintaining a symbiotic relationship with the nomad elites.

Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is considered as a fatal zoonosis caused by the larvae of Echinococcus multilocularis. The lungs and brain are the most common metastatic organs. We report a human case of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis accompanied by lung and brain metastasis. In particular, the patient had a history of tuberculosis and the lung lesions were easily misdiagnosed as lung abscesses. The lesions of liver and lung underwent radical resection and confirmed as alveolar echinococcosis by pathological examination. The patient had no surgical complications after operation and was discharged after symptomatic treatment. Unfortunately, the patient later developed multiple intracerebral AE metastases. We required the patient to take albendazole orally for life and follow up.
