To get the geologic information data such as rock resources, industrial ground, development planning and so on, distribution ratios of constituent rocks with geologic age and rock type were obtained in Gyeongnam, Ulsan and Busan areas by ArcGIS 9.3 program, digital geologic and geomorphic maps of 1 : 250,000 scale. Geologic ages and rock types in the Gyeongnam area can be divided into 6 and 40, respectively. Their distribution ratios of the geologic ages are decreasing in the order of Cretaceous, Precambrian, Quaternary, Jurassic, Triassic and Tertiary. They show the wide ranges of 1.35-57.36%, and the former makes the most dominant ratio. Major rock types are 24 ones, all of which occupy the ratio of 94.58% and relatively narrow ranges of 1.15-13.64% in the area. Among them, andesite and andesitic tuff shows the more or less dominant ratio, and separately develops in the northeast, mid east and south parts of the area. In the Ulsan area, geologic ages and rock types can be divided into 3 and II, respectively. Their distribution ratios of the geologic ages are decreasing in the order of Cretaceous, Quaternary and Triassic. They show the very wide range of 6.90-79.21%, and the former makes the most prevailing ratio. Major rock types are 9 ones, which totally occupy the ratio of 98.63% and more or less wide ranges of 1.50-39.01% in the area. Among them, Jindong formation shows the most dominant ratio, and widely develops in the inner and eastern part of the area. In the Busan area, geologic ages and rock types can be divided into 3 and 10, respectively. Their distribution ratios of the geologic ages are decreasing in the order of Cretaceous, Quaternary and Tertiary. They show the wide ranges of 6.73-47.02%, and the two former makes the most dominant ratio of 88.03%. Major rock types are 6 ones, all of which occupy the ratio of 93.02% and relatively wide ranges of 4.07-47.02% in the area. Among them, alluvium forms the most dominant ratio, which mostly develops in the lower Nagdong River, West Nagdong River and Suyeong River.

Background : Massive and untreated hemoptysis is associated with a mortality of greater than 50 percent. Since the bleeding is from a bronchial arterial source in the vast majority of patients, embolization of the bronchial arteries(BAE) has become an accepted treatment in the management of massive hemoptysis because it achieves immediate control of bleeding in 75 to 90 percent of the patients. Methods: Between 1990 and 1996, we treated 146 patients with hemoptysis by bronchial artery embolization. Catheters(4, 5, or 7F) and gelfoam, ivalon, and/or microcoil were used for embolization. Results: Pulmonary tuberculosis and related disorders were the most common underlying disease of hemoptysis(72.6%). Immediate success rate to control bleeding within 24hours was 95%, and recurrence rate was 24.7%. The recurrence rate occured within 6 months after embolization was 63.9%. Initial angiographic findings such as bilaterality, systemic-pulmonary artery shunt, neovascularity, aneurysm were not statistically correlated with rebleeding tendency(P>0.05). Among Initial radiographic findings, only pleural lesions were significantly correlated with rebleeding tendency(P<0.05). At additional bronchial artery angiograpy done due to rebleeding, recanalization of previous embolized arteries were 63.9%, and the presence of new feeding arteries were 16.7%, and 19.4% of patients with rebleeding showed both The complications such as fever, chest pain, headache, nausea and vomiting, arrhythmia, paralylytic ileus, transient sensory loss (lower extremities), hypotension, urination difficulty were noticed at 40 patients(27.4%). Conclusion: We conclude that bronchial artery embolization is relatively safe method achieving immediate control of massive hemoptysis. At initial angiographic findings, we could not find any predictive factors for subsequent rebleeding. It may warrant further study whether patients with pleural disease have definetely increased rebleeding tendency.
