This report presents the case of 75-year-old men with spindle cell neoplasm. The patient underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for renal stones and benign prostatic hyperplasia. One month postoperatively, the patient was able to void without any difficulty. Five months later, the patient experienced difficulty voiding and presented to the emergency room with severe pelvic pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed regrowth of the prostate mass into the posterior bladder and penile root. The prostate-specific antigen level remained constant at 1.14 ng/mL during the pre-and postoperative periods. Five months before the TURP operation, the patient's CT scan showed a soft and mildly enlarged prostate with no protrusion into the bladder. Biopsy of the prostate, however, showed a protruding mass, indicative of a spindle cell neoplasm. The patient was subsequently treated with the chemotherapeutic drug adriamycin. Unfortunately, treatment was unsuccessful, and the patient died 18 months later.

본 연구는 가상현실 게임이 노인 뇌졸중 환자의 우울, 대인관계, 삶의 만족도에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위하여 실시되었다. 연구대상은 65세 이상의 뇌졸중 노인 40명으로, 전통적 작업치료만 실시한 대조군과 전통적 작업치료와 2인이 함께 가상현실 게임을 수행한 실험군에 각각 20명씩 무선배치하여 총 12주간 실시하였다. 실험군에게 적용된 가상현실 게임은 Nintendo Wii Sports Resort 프로그램을 적용하였고, 대상자의 심리 사회적요인을 알아보기 위해 우울증 척도 (Beck Depression Inventory; BDI), 대인관계 변화 척도(Relationship change scale; RCS), 삶의 만족도(Life Satisfaction Index-Z; LSI-Z)를 이용하여 실험 전과 실험 후의 평가를 시행하였다. 이에 대한 연구결과는 다음과 같았다. 첫째, 심리 사회적(우울, 대인관계)변화를 살펴본 결과 우울은 두 군 모두, 대인관계는 실험군에서만 통계적으로 유의한 향상을 나타났다(p<.001). 둘째, 삶의 만족도의 변화를 본 결과 대조군(p<.05), 실험군(p<.001) 모두에서 통계적으로 유의한 향상을 보였다. 셋째, 우울, 대인관계 및 삶의 만족도와의 상관관계를 본 결과 우울증, 대인관계는 삶의 만족도와 통계적으로 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(p<.05). 이상의 결과를 정리하면 2인이 함께 수행하는 가상현실 게임이 뇌졸중 노인환자의 심리 사회적요인(우울, 대인관계)과, 삶의 만족도에 유의미한 효과가 있음이 알 수 있었다.

A 69-year old female stroke patient was admitted on August 7, 1998. She had seborrheic dermatitis on her lower abdomen for 25 years. The patient received many treatments but was unable to find a cure. During her hospitalization for stroke, the patient had trouble sleeping. The doctors hypothesized the dermatitis to be the cause of the sleeping disorder and attempted to treat it. The doctors chose Hwangyeonhaedog-tang Gagambang for treatment and smeared it on the patient's abdomen. After ten days of treatment, the dermatitis disappeared and did not reoccur. The patient's abdomen continued to show no symptoms of dermatitis after being released for 2 years.

Upward migration of the peritoneal catheter of a subgaleo-peritoneal (SP) shunt and coiling into the subgaleal space is an extremely rare complication of a SP shunt. A 32-year-old male patient visited our hospital presenting with a large skull defect due to a prior craniectomy performed elsewhere. The patient underwent a cranioplasty with methylmetacrylate, but subsequently developed progressive pseudomeningocele and subgaleal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection. The patient underwent CSF diversion via a SP shunt. After SP shunting, the pseudomeningocele disappeared completely. Six months later, the patient presented with progressive scalp swelling. Skull X-ray showed migration and coiling of the distal catheter of the SP shunt. The patient was treated by removing the entire shunt catheter and the dura was covered with a subgaleal flap. We would like to report our experience with a very rare complication of subgaleo-peritoneal shunting.

Nowadays, Korean society is quickly transforming into an aging society. There are lots of problems resulting from old aged society. First of all, in the case of medical service, it is an urgent task to find out what is the most proper care for the elderly in order to reduce medical expenses.
