Annular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly with the descending duodenum encircled by a ring of pancreatic tissue, which may cause partial or complete obstruction of the duodenum. In newborn, the symptoms can be those of duodenal stasis resulting from partial intestinal obstruction secondary to some degree of duodenal stenosis. A male newborn weighing 2.0 Kg was born by C-section delivery at 37 weeks' gestation to a 27-year-old mother who had a hydramnios. He was in relatively good condition at birth except regurgitation of saliva and intermittent apnea. A plain film of the abdomen showed the double-bubble of gas filled stomach and proximal duodenum, and upper gastrointestinal series showed a dilated proximal duodenum, with a complete obstruction of the descending duodenum. Intraoperative finding revealed encirclement of the duodenal second portion by pancreatic tissue. Duodenojejunostomy was performed. After the operation, he had developed two serious complications, neonatal septicemia by Enterobacter cloacae on postoperative day 12 and systemic candidiasis on postoperative day 19, and been managed with ventilatory support, antibiotics, and antifungal agents with recovery.

Many types of cancer, current therapy other than surgery and/or radiotherapy was of only limited efficacy. At the basic chinese traditional medicine(TCM) there was increased understanding of the additional basic and clinical neoplasm treatment research. The metastasis and recurrence of neoplasm was the basis of yudu(餘毒) on remained neoplasm cell and stagnation of blood, thermotoxo, phlegm, asthenia of healthy enerngy, stagnation of vital energy. The principles therapy of neoplasm on metastasis and recurrence was based on knowledge of the method of support the healthy energy and strengthen the body resistance, promote blood circulation to remove blood stasis, clear away heat and toxic materials, dissipate phlegm and disperse the accumulation of evils, regulate vital energy and disperse the depressed vital energy. But the major clinical features of neoplasm was to be considered in developing a treatment plan include (1) distinguish between clinical and pathologic staging - acute and chronic, (2) classification of pathologic pattern, and (3) distinction of body situation : for examples asthenia - sthenia etc. It was most important to distinguish between supporting the healthy and eliminating the evil factors and to treat differently at the root and the branch cause of a neoplasm. This paper's results indicate that identification and effective use of TCM medicines inhibited netastasis and decreased recurrence and then we were able to expect increasing survival rate.

We hope most clinicians practicing cosmetic acupuncture to understand theoretical background well and to treat cosmetic diseases more diversely by this paper. Methods : We collected useful informations from 35 papers in Chinese at website www.cnki.net about TCM treatments including acupuncture, moxibustion and herbal medicine. And we could see important factors connected with physiology, pathology and clinical applications within this field. Conclusions : Liver, lung, stomach, mental disorders and yin-deficiency constitution were connected each other in cosmetic physiology. Blood stasis and congestion were thought highly in cosmetic pathology. In clinical applications, wet cupping therapy on the acupoints located in the back line of Governor Vessel(GV), ear-acupuncture, acupuncture using local facial acupoints, pharmacopuncture, moxibustion were used diversely for each case with cosmetic disorders. Especially, local acupoints and remote acupoints were selected at the same time for wrinkle care. And studies on plastic surgery sequelae, dark skin, acne and melasma were more published than those on wrinkle care.

Methods This study researched randomized controlled trials through various databases in the world about herbal medicine treatments in JIA. Results 11 out of 414 studies were selected and analyzed. All studies were conducted in China. Most of the studies were using herbal medicines, as an adjunctive treatment to the main regimen, and the total effective rate was higher in the treatment group than in the control group. One study was comparing the herbal oriental medicine treatment to the western medicine treatment, and it showed that treatment group was more effective than control group. 5 out of 11 studies reported treatment cases from a single herbal medicine; most of them used Total glucosides of Paeonia (TGP). Clematidis Radix et Rhizoma (威靈仙) were also commonly used, as well as medicinal herbs belong to Eliminating wind-dampness medicine (祛風濕藥) and Activating blood resolving stasis medicine (活血祛瘀藥).

This paper aims to explore an other way to reflect on the self through woman, through the feminine, as a mode of being. In other words, in order to say about "how to re-think the self, in a different way," if I start from the issue of the feminine, how and why can this "a different way" be linked to woman? This question implies several more questions; what is woman? what is the feminine? what does it mean "a different way"? how can we say of "a different way"? Or, why can we take woman as the medium to "be" in a different way? If woman gives us a "way out," that is to say, if (S)he opens out a way for our out-being, ex-sistence, standing outside ourselves, that is, ek-stasis, does this enable us to overstep egotism? Then, how can we re-flect and say about this "out (as 'ex-/ek-')" in terms of woman, the feminine? This paper starts from these questions. Woman is an explosive overflowing force, movement, and process, which displace 'within' into 'outside,' as what Irigaray would call a "disruptive excess." Thus, I start from saying of the "place" in which woman itself takes place as overflowing. By referring to Derridian, Lacanian, and Heideggerian terms, I hope to foreground the ex-sistential space of woman.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze the trends of Korean medicine treatment on postherpetic neuralgia. Methods : Domestic databases(OASIS, KISS, RISS, KISTI, NDSL, KMbase) were used to search case studies related to Korean medical treatment of postherpetic neuralgia. Total 9 studies were selected. Results : A total 15 prescriptions were used 22 times in 14 cases. Among them, Sipjeondaebo-tang(十全大補湯) was the most frequently prescribed. Total 91 herbs were used and they were classified as tonifying and replenishing medicine(補益藥), exterior-releasing medicine(解表藥) and blood-activating and stasis-dispelling medicine(活血祛瘀藥) in the order of mostly used. In 8 studies, in addition to herbal medicine treatment, other Korean medicine treatments such as acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, moxibusiton, cupping therapy and external agents were performed at the same time. Most frequently used acupoints were 足竅陰(GB44) and 商陽(LI1). Conclusions : This is the first study to analyze the trends of Korean medicine treatment for postherpetic neuralgia. Although there are some limitations, this study is thought to be helpful in the domestic treatment of postherpetic neuralgia in the future.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to recognize correlation between stress and menstrual pattern among low-income women. Methods: From 5th October to 24th October 2009 we researched 14 low-income mothers by questionnaires to investigate their stress and menstrual patterns. Results: The mean level of their stress was $6.71{\pm}2.92$. The less the income was, the higher the stress was. Among the women, the stress of those who do not had husbands was also high. Most of the women's menarche came late and their menstrual cycle was long. The menstrual color was a little dark and they had blood clots and pain during menstruation. Their mental states also often changed over the period and they had pattern of blood stasis. The study observed that the higher the stress was, the worse the menstrual pain was. Conclusion: Low-income women are under stress by their socioeconomic status and their menstrual patterns often change. Stress has correlation with menstruation.
