The purpose of this research was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of Kamibokwontonggi-san(KBTS) which has been medicated the patient such as mastitis, mammary tuberculosis. KBTS in RAW264.7 cell inhibited IL-1 ${\beta}$, IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$, COX-2 and NOS-II mRNA genes expression in a concentration-dependent manner. KBTS inhibited NO production significantly at 100, 50 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$ and ROS production in a concentration-dependent manner. KBTS inhibited IL-1${\beta}$, IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ production significantly in serum of acute anti-inflammation-induced mice and the survival rate at the 3rd day on LPS-induced lethal endotoxemia. These results suggest that Kamibokwonntonggi-san (KBTS) can be useful in treating a lot of women diseases caused by inflammation such as mastitis, mammary tuberculosis, pelvic inflammatory disease and pelvic tuberculosis.

Penetrating chest trauma by stab injury may result in massive hemothorax from damage to single or multiple intrathoracic organs such as heart, aorta, internal mammary artery, intercostal artery or pulmonary parenchyme. Prognosis of massive hemothorax necessitating emergency thoracotomy is fatal especially so if there exists concomitant underlying compromise of cardiopulmonary function. A 56 year old man with destroyed left lung due to old pulmonary tuberculosis was stabbed in right parasternal lesion through third intercostal space. Intubation with cardiopulmonary resuscitation and closed thoracostomy were performed to resuscitate from cardiac asystole from hemorrhagic shock and acute respiratory distress. Midsternotomy was made to expose active bleeding foci in right mammary artery, subclavian vein, intercostal artery and anterior segment of right upper lung showing severe bullous change and pleural adhesion. Postoperative care included ventilator support, inotropic instillation and cautious, balance fluid therapy ; successful extubation was done on third postoperative day and patient was discharged on tenth postoperative day without any complication.

This is the result of the annual statistic analysis of thoracic and cardiovascular surgical cases in 1991, Korea. 14,715 cases of surgery[thoracic 8,995/cardiovascular 5,720] were done by 53 institutes replied. The order of frequency of cell type in primary lung cancer was squamous [62.3%] / adeno [23.9%] / small [6.4%] / adenosquamous [3.0%], and in mediastinal tumor, neurogenic[27.l%] / thymoma [27.1%] / teratoma[26.4%] / congenital cystic[12.0%]. Surgery for tuberculosis was decreased to 15.8% of overall infectious disease from the recent 6 year`s average 35.7%. In general thoracic surgery, the single most frequent operation was closed thoracostomy[4,047 cases] for pleural pathology. The ratio of congenital to acquired heart disease was 2:1, and acyanotic to cyanotic was 3:1. The order of frequency of congenital acyanotic heart disease was VSD [45.6%] / ASD [25.6%] / PDA [20.4%] / PS [2.9%], and that of cyanotic heart disease was TOF [42.6%] / PA [12.9%] / TGA [9.9%] / DORV [8.8%]. In 1,364 cases of valvular surgery, single mitral pathology was the most frequent candidate[729 cases, 53.4%]. In 243 cases of coronary surgery, bypassing graft materials were great saphenous vein[41.6%], internal mammary [39.5%], and artificial vessel[18.9%]. There were no specific differences in aortic surgery, assisted device implantation, and antiarrhythmic surgery as compared to previous study. This nation-wide inquiry will be continued and reported annually by KTCS Society.

Background: Maspin (mammary serine protease inhibitor) is a member of the serpin superfamily. A few studies have examined the role of maspin in tumor suppression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, its role in the development and progression of NSCLC still remains controversial. We evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of maspin in order to elucidate its clinical significance in NSCLC. Methods: We analyzed 145 patients with pathologically confirmed NSCLC, including 66 cases of squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) and 79 cases of adenocarcinomas (ADCs). We performed a immuno-histochemical stain with maspin and PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) using tissue microarray blocks. Results: There were 108 men and 37 women in the study population. The mean age of patients in the study was 63.7 years (range, 40.0~82.0; median, 65.0). The proportion of maspin expression was significantly higher in SCCs (52/66, 78.8%; p<0.01) than in ADCs (17/79, 21.5%; p<0.01). Maspin expression was not associated with PCNA (p=0.828), lymph node involvement (p=0.483), or tumor stage (p=0.216), but showed correlation with well-to-moderate tumor differentiation (p=0.012). There was no observed correlation between maspin expression and survival with NSCLC (p=0.218). Conclusion: The present study suggests that maspin expression was significantly higher in SCCs than in ADCs and was associated with low histological grade. However, maspin expression was not an independent factor to predict a prognosis in NSCLC.
