This study was undertaken to find out the effect analysis of conservative treatment in of lumbar intervertebral disc. The data was performed to evaluate the effect of conservative treatment in 50 patients aging from 20 to 67 with lumbar intervertebral disc patients. Changes in low back pain score were evaluated by age, occupation, duration of symptoms, marital status, education period, self assessment. Duration of symptoms in over 7 months was 62.0%. 8.6 scores of complete recovery was changes in low back pain score of self assessment patients. In the multiple regression of risk factors to changes in low back pain score were correlated with age, education period, marital status, duration of symptoms(p<0.05). All patients were assessed by the low back pain protocol which was composed of symptom, clinical sign and activities of daily living scales before and after the treatment. Poor result could be predicted after the nonoperative treatment in the patient groups of changes low back pain score decreased with aging, duration of symptom over 7 months.

Intussusception in adult is a rare disease and laparotomy is usually considered because of the probability of malignancy. Especially with obstruction symptom or sign, it might be needed emergency operation. This case was a simultaneous development of small bowel intussusception and acute hepatitis A. The patient had abdominal pain and vomiting. Intitial laboratory examination with elevated aminotransferase revealed that the diagnosis was acute hepatitis. As managing acute hepatitis, the abdominal pain was not improved and the patient had tenderness on periumbilical area on physical examination. A jejunal intussusception with a lead point was proved on the abdominal computed tomography scan. Fortunately, symptom of intussusception was relieved while nulli per os (NPO) and intravenous hydration. After recovery of acute hepatitis, laparotomy was done. The lead point was $2.5{\times}3.0cm$ sized hamartoma. This was the case that the symptom of intussusception was confused with that of acute hepatitis.

Background： Infectious mononucleosis is a disease precipitated by Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) in mostly children, some seronegative adolescents and young adults comprising clinical symptoms such as fever, lymphadenopathy, and pharyngitis as well as laboratory findings such as hetero-phil antibodies and atypical lymphocytosis. It is confirmed by serologic test for EBV. Materials and Methods： A retrospective evaluation of 26 patients who diagnosed with infectious mononucleosis was peformed through the analysis of typical symptom, sign and laboratory findings. Results : Infectious mononucleosis occurs mostly at 3 to 10 years (74.9%), common symptoms and signs are fever, cervical lymphadenopathy, tonsillar enlargement and exudate. Positive ratio of atypical Lymphocyte(>10%) and hetrophil antibodies are 61.5%, 35.2% respectively, it is less diagnostic. EBV-viral capsid antigen(VCA) IgM are positive in all cases, so it is most diagnostic findings. Conclusion： Infectious mononucleosis should be considered as a cause of cervical lymphadenopathy and pharyngotonsillitis in children and young adults, the assessment of EBV-VCA IgM is necessary for the diagnosis.

Total 63 cases, 23 were male and 40 were female with sex ratio of 1: 1.7. 2. The age distribution was widely varied from 7 years of the youngest to 65 years oldest, average age was 35.3 year old. 3. The main clinical symptom and sign were D.O.E, general weakness, fatigability, palpitation, chest pain, hepatomegaly, pitting edema and both neck vein distension. 4. The preoperative N.Y.H.A functional classification were class II, III, IV in 28%, 54%, 16%. 5. The preoperative diagnosis were MS - 6.3%, MR - 53.9%, MSR - 36.5%, MVP - 3.1%. 6. All 63 patients were operated on the under direct vision using extracorporeal circulation, MVR in 18 cases, MVR and Tricuspid annuloplasty in 24 cases, DVR in 3 cases, DVR and Tricuspid annuloplasty in 5 cases, TVR in 1 case, Mitral annuloplasty in 4 cases, mitral valvuloplasty in 7 cases and mitral commissurotomy in 2 cases 7. The operative mortality was 7.9%, and 5 years actuarial survival rate was 89%.

In order to evaluate the effect of signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders on the bite force of anterior teeth, the author estimated a feature of maintaining the maximum bite force on central incisors in Korean 34 adult females with signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD group) and in Korean 31 adult females within normal masticatory function far from any sign or symptom of TMD (control group), and analyzed the data statistically. The obtained results were as follows: 1. There was not a significant difference of the maximum bite force on central incisors between TMD group and control group (P>0.05). 2. The duration of maintaining the maximum bite force on central incisors in TMD group was shorter than it in control group (P<0.01).

Endometrial carcinoma is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies and which is predominant in postmenopausal women. Clinically many patients are hospitalized in early stage due to clinical sign and symptom such as vaginal bleeding and in this case, patient's prognosis is known to be good. However, considerable number of patients with advanced and relapsed disease reveal poor prognosis. Therefore, exact staging work up is essential for proper treatment as is primary lesion detection. $^{18}F-FDG-PET$ has been widely used for the evaluation of gynecologic malignancies such as cervical carcinoma and ovarian cancer. In contrast, FDG PET application to endometrial carcinoma is limited until now and there is no sufficient data to validate the usefulness of FDG PET for this disease yet. However, several studies showed promising results that FDG PET is sensitive and specific in detection of recurrent or metastatic lesions. Therefore further active investigation in this field can facilitate the use of FDG PET for endometrial carcinoma.

The first Mitral Commissurotomy was performed for tight mitral stenosis on March 1957. The patient was at that time 22-year-old male, student. The longest follow 9p for 22 years and 8 months has been obtained. During the follow up period, late deterioration due to restenosis developed 4 years after initial good result and reoperation was succeeded by transventricular Mitral Valvotomy with Tubb`s ilator on April 1964. The possible cause of restenosis was attributed to recurrent rheumatic activity. After more than 13 years long-good life following 2nd operation, Endocarditis such as episode of high fever & chill intermittently followed by mild fever and night sweat, I t. tibial artery embolization and rupture of aortic cusp. At present, patient complained of no subjective symptom, enjoying ordinary life {NYHA II]. Blood pressure has been 110/50-60 mmHg, trivial diastolic murmur at apex and moderate degree of mechanical murmur on diastole at Erb`s rea. Neither signs of RVH for mitral stenosis nor sign of LVH. ST-T change for aortic regurgitation appeared yet during last 2 yrs. The patient`s are for prevention of Rheumatic activity and development of endocarditis is important for obtaining the better long-term result.

As one of the effective therapies for musculoskeletal diseases, orthopedic manual physical therapy has been watched with keen interest. In Korea, orthopedic manual physical therapy has been widely spread and applied in the field of clinical medicine since the mid-nineties. Since then, the clinical efficacy of orthopedic manual physical therapy has been approved, and orthopedic manual physical therapy has been gradually spread in the filed of clinical medicine. However, it should be noted that clinically available therapies are not well recognized. Therefore, this study was conducted to allude diagnostic and therapeutic characteristics of these therapies including deep tissue massage, manual therapy, Cyriaxs method combining manual reduction and chemotherapy, Kaltenborn-Evjenth method based on concave-convex rule for joint and soft tissue, Maitlands method based on patients sign and symptom, stress due to the posture, intraarticualr disturbance and Mckenzies method for pain due to the dysfunction.
