From June 1983 to September 1984, the pleural biopsies with Cope needle were performed at department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Pusan Paik Hospital, Inje college, on 78 patients for exudative pleural effusion caused by various conditions. These results were analyzed clinically and summarized as follows: 2. The accuracy of pleural biopsy was 69.2% [54 of 78 patients]. The accuracy represented by ratio for the number of biopsy was 63.5% [54 of 85 biopsies]. 3. Among 61 patients of tuberculosis or malignancy, 37 [60.7%] were confirmed by pleural biopsy. 4. Tuberculosis was diagnosed in 48 patients, in 26[54.2%] out of these by pleural biopsy alone, in 3[6.2%] by pleural biopsy and isolation of AFB, in 2[4.2%] by pleural biopsy and operation, in 4[8.3%] by isolation of AFB, in 2[4.2%] by operation, and in 11[22.9%] clinically. 5. Among 13 patients of malignancy, 4[30.8%] were diagnosed by cytology alone, 4[30.8%] by pleural biopsy and cytology alone, 4[30.8%] by pleural biopsy and cytology, 1[7.7%] by pleural biopsy alone, 1[7.7%] by pleural biopsy and operation, and remained 3 by operation, lymph node biopsy, or bronchoscopy respectively. 6. False positive of clinical diagnosis was 12.5% for tuberculosis and 28.6% for malignancy. In pathological diagnosis there was no false positive. So specificity of pleural biopsy was very high. But false negative of pleural biopsy was 29.2% for tuberculosis and 46.2% for malignancy. 7. 4 cases[5.1%] of minimal pneumothorax were in the early series.

Radiological analysis of chest lesions detected on chest radiographs or CT scans begins with their classification into parenchymal, pleural, or extrapleural lesions according to their presumed origin. The mediastinum is divided anatomically into the anterior, middle, and posterior mediastinal compartments, and localizing a mediastinal mass to one of these divisions can facilitate their differential diagnosis. A differential diagnosis of a mediastinal mass is usually based on a number of findings, including its location; the structure from which it is arising; whether it is single, multifocal (involving several different areas or lymph node groups), or diffuse; its size and shape; its attenuation (fatty, fluid, soft-tissue, or a combination of these); the presence of calcification along with its characteristics and amount; and its opacification following the administration of contrast agents.

The purpose of this study was to detect Mycobacterium bovis in cattle(serum, milk, lung, lymph node) by PCR. Nineteen samples from 7 skin test-positive cattle were analyzed. The amplified band of IS6110 by PCR was detected from 2 samples in lung and Iymph node. But the sensitivities of the present methods for detecting M bovis in milk and serum are deficient. Because the PCR sensitivity has been shown to be hindered by the method used to isolate the nucleic acid target. PCR-based methods have the potential to be faster, more accurate, and the most efficient means of detecting M bovis. The detection of M bovis by PCR will contribute to the more efficient detection and control of tuberculosis.

Bronchial carcinoids were classified as one of the bronchial adenoma group and constituted about 90% of bronchial adenoma. Typical carcinoids are common benign neoplasms of the airway because of their uniform histologic feature, predictable clinical course and good survival after surgical resection. And atypical carcinoid is regarded as a malignant tumor because of its pleomorphic, hyperchromatic nucleus, frequent mitosis and distant metastasis (about 70%). However, typical carcinoids rarely metastasize to regional lymph nodes and such cases would be regarded as a low grade malignancy because their clinical prognosis could be bad. We present a case of typical bronchial carcinoid which metastasize to hilar lymph node who has been followed up 10 months after resection.

Background and Objectives： Necrotizing lymphadenitis or Kikuchi's disease is characterized by cervical lymphadenopathy of unknown etiology with unique histologic findings in young female patients. The importance of this disease lies in the fact that it can be easily misdiagnosed as malignant lymphoma, hence, clinicians need to aware of this disease entity. The purpose of this study is to report the clinicopathologic findings, radiographic findings, and many laboratory tests in order to contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of necrotizing lymphadenitis. Materials and Methods： We evaluated 31 patients, who were diagnosed as necrotizing lymphadenitis by excisional biopsy or fine needle aspiration cytology or ultrasound guided 18G cutting needle biopsy, retrospectively. Result : The median age was 24.8 years (range 12 to 43 years) and the male to female ratio was 1 : 2.4(9：22), with 14 females (45.1%) under 30 years. The common chief complaints were neck mass, easy fatigue and fever. Lymph node enlargement was limited to the cervical area in most cases (28cases : 90.3%). The involved lymph nodes were usually multiple (20cases : 64.5%), unilateral (26cases 83.9%) and small sized. Leukopenia (19cases : 61.3%) and elevation of ESR (18cases : 58.1%) appeared most frequently in the abnormal laboratory data. These symptoms will be gone spontaneoulsy without any specific treatment in several weeks or months. Conclusion : We should consider open biopsy or fine needle aspiration cytology or ultrasound guided cutting needle biopsy with lymph node in patients who have cervical lymphadenopathy with easy fatigue and fever, especially young women to exclude other conditions such as malignant lymphoma and tuberculosis, etc.
