Isolated tubal torsion is an uncommon cause of acute abdomen in pregnancy. Tubal torsion may occur in the absence of adnexal disease. Diagnosing tubal torsion is especially difficult in pregnancy because no precise preoperative radiological and biochemical investigations have been conducted. Most patients are diagnosed during surgery. Here, I present a case of isolated tubal torsion in a pregnant woman at 35 weeks and 6 days of gestation that was managed with salpingectomy and cesarean section simultaneously.

The torsion of the uterus is a rare gynecological emergency. It occurs mainly in the gravid uterus and extremely rarely in the non-gravid uterus. In this article, we report a case of a torsion of non-gravid uterus accompanied by a huge intramural leiomyoma with focus on CT and MR imaging findings.

A calf with derodidymus was delivered from a 3-year old Korean-native cow with abortion last ime at Jangheong area in Chonnam Province. The anomaly with body weight of 35 kg was born t the normal time of parturition. During the parturition, however, the calf with twin head was onfirmed and the complete amputation between fore and hind limb was inevitably carried out or safety of the dam. The calf had normal skeleton and extremities but had two heads and cervical vertebrae divided from upper thoracic part. At necropsy, there were found totally 3 pairs of ore limbs including two pairs of hypoplastic ones hided in the thoracic limb and also found one air of sternum. One head had incomplete torsion or unilateral hypoplasia of mandible with artly hypoplastic skull. There were marked fusion and torsion from cervical to 3rd thoracic vertebra. No abnormality was found on all organs in the pleural and abdominal cavities except a rectal stricture formed at 5 cm away from the atresia ani.

Purpose : This study is carried out to investigate the effect of asymmetric exercises on soccer players' vertebral abnormality and weight bearing. Methods : A total of 40 soccer players were divided into either a group of 20 players who use a unilateral foot or a group of 20 players who use both feet. 3-dimensional spine structure analyzer was used to analyze body inclination, pelvic inclination, pelvic torsion, turning of spinal segment, spinal curvature, thoracic kyphosis curvature, lumbar lordosis curvature, left/right weight distribution, and front/back weight distribution. Results : The result of the two groups showed that there were significant differences (p<0.05) for every item except turning of spinal segment and lumbar lordosis curvature. Conclusion : From this result, we can find that spinal and pelvic deformity and body weight are unilaterally supported for soccer players with asymmetric exercises.
