The volcanic sequence of the late Cretaceous Moonyu volcanic mass which distributed in the southwestern part of Ryeongnam massif, can be divided into felsic pyroclastic rocks, andesite and andesitic pyroclastic rocks, rhyolite in ascending order. The earliest volcanic activity might commence with intermittent eruptions of felsic magma during deposition of volcaniclastic sediments. Explosive eruptions of felsic pyroclastic rocks began with ash-falls, to progressed through pumice-falls and transmitted with dacitic to rhyolitic ash-flows. Subsequent andesite and andesitic pyroclastic rocks were erupted and finally rhyolite was intruded as lava domes along the fractures near the center of volcanic mass. Petrochemical data show that these rocks are calc-alkaline series and have close petrotectonic affinities with subduction-related continental margin arc volcanic province. Major element compositions range from medium-K to high-K. Petrochemical variation within the volcanic sequence can be largely accounted for tractional crystallization processes with subordinate mixing. The most mafic rocks are basaltic andesite, but low MgO and Ni contents indicate they are fractionated by fractional crystallization from earlier primary mafic magma, which derived from less than 20% partial melting of ultramafic rocks in upper mantle wedge. Based on the stratigraphy, the early volcanic rocks are zoned from lower felsic to upper andesitic in composition. The compositional zonation of magma chamber from upper felsic to lower andesitic, is interpreted to have resulted from fractionation within the chamber and replenishment by an influx of new mafic magma from depth. Replenishment and mixing is based on observations of disequilibrium phenocrysts in volcanic rocks. REE patterns show slight enrichment of LREE with differentiation from andesite to rhyolite. Rhyolite in the final stage can be derived from calc-alkaline andesite magma by fractional crystallization, but it might have underwent crustal contamination during the fractional crystallization.

Common carotid artery (CCA) rupture during parathyroid cancer surgery is extremely rare and is generally life-threatening. We present a case of successful management of a ruptured CCA following the emergency placement of stent-graft in a 59-year-old male diagnosed with recurrent parathyroid cancer. During recurrent parathyroid cancer surgery, his right CCA ruptured unexpectedly, and his vital signs deteriorated rapidly despite surgical management. After stent replacement, his unstable vital signs improved and, thereafter, he was discharged without any complications.

Objects : Cancer patients receiving radiotherapy have many psychological problems. Those problems depend on clinical factors of cancer and the characteristics of patients. This study was designed to estimate the morbidity of psychiatric disorder and to investigate the relationship between psychiatric disorders and clinical variables. Methods : The subjects were 47 patients who had been treated by radiotherapy. Psychiatric disorder was diagnosed according to DSM-IV. The authors assessed the relation between psychiatric disorder and demographic features, clinical features of cancer such as site, duration, frequency of recurrence of cancer, and patients' awareness of disease and expectation of outcome of radiotherapy. Results : 21 patients(44.7%) had a psychiatric disorder. The most common psychiatric disorder were adjustment disorder(66.7%), and the next major depressive disorder(23.8%). There was a significant positive relationship between psychiatric disorder and recurrence of cancer, patients' expectation of poor outcome after radiotherapy. Psychiatric morbidity was significantly low in those who had no evidence of recurrence and who considered radiation treatment as curative. However, site and duration of cancer, patients' awareness about serious illness were not related with psychiatric disorder. Conclusion : Psychiatric disorders are common among cancer patients on radiotherapy. Further clinical attention and effective treatment of psychiatric complication in cancer patients are needed not only for reducing symptoms but for better adjustment.

Cancer cachexia-anorexia is a multi-organ metabolic syndrome characterized by anorexia and weight loss. Generally, such symptoms are a serious problem in cancer patients, adversely affecting chemotherapy success and survival rate. Cachexia has been reported to accompany up to 80% of gastrointestinal cancers, such as pancreatic, lung, and colon cancer, though it is relatively rare in lymphoma or breast cancer patients. It is also known that cancer-induced anorexia occurs independently of chemotherapy, although decreased appetite due to chemotherapy is well reported. In terms of pathoflammatory cytokines that are excessively increased by tumor tissues. Since the mechanism of cancer cachexia is not yet fully understood, there are currently no therapeutic agents or diagnostic markers to treat it. A recently published study identified a substance secreted from cancer cells that induces cancer anorexia, and the molecular mechanism causing the eating disorder was discovered. An increase in the expression of this substance has been shown to be statistically correlated with the symptoms of cachexia in cancer patients, and it is therefore expected to be applicable in the diagnosis and development of therapeutic agents for cancer cachexia. This review article aims to provide an overview of the key molecular mechanisms of the anorexia and tissue wasting caused by cancer cachexia.

Sleeve pneumonectomy can be a method of treatment in a selected patient with bronchogenic carcinoma involving carina. A 64 years old male with a history of mitral valve replacement via midsternotomy 13 years ago and resection of papilloma of the vocal cord 2 years ago. The patient was admitted due to blood-tinged sputum. Bronchoscopy and computerized tomogram of the chest revealed 3.5 cm mass at lower margin of the trachea and totally obstructing the left main bronchus. A biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma. He underwent left sleeve pneumonectomy through sequential bilateral thoracotomy without cardiopulmonary bypass, and the pathologic stage was T4N0M0 stage IIIB. The patient is being followed through the outpatient clinic in good general condition.

법송 방조제 조성지역 매립부 지반의 측방 및 수직변화를 조사하였다. 매립부 지반은 측방 및 수직으로 구성광물과 풍화정도에서 차이를 보여준다 이러한 차이는 기원암의 차이를 반영하는 것으로 편광현미경분석, 주사전자현미경분석, X-선회절분석에서 공통적으로 인지 할 수 있다. 해성점토층의 출현심도는 10m의 일정한 심도로 분포하여 방조제 축조이전 해성층이 수평층이었음을 지시하며 이러한 심도는 매립층의 하한선이 된다. 매립물질의 토색,토성. 풍화도, 구성광물차이에 의한 매립부 지반은 모두 같은 모재를 사용하여 매립되지 않았음을 지시하며 매립물질이 층서구조를 가지고 있는 점은 방조제의 수 차례에 걸쳐 조성되었음을 지시한다. 조사 결과 방조제 코어부와 성토부는 서로 다른 시기에 매립되었을 것으로 추정되며 성토부의 조성은 서로 다른 기원지의 모재를 사용하여 3회 이상에 걸쳐 시행되었음을 의미한다.

Purpose: A purpose of this study was to compare dose of junction between breast and SCL fields in radiation therapy by MLC located at the junction. Materials and Methods: With 6 MV of 21EX-S equipped with 120-leaf Millennium MLC, treatment plans were designed with 30 patients who underwent radiation therapy using TFT. Plan 1 where the MLC was all used at the junction. In plan 2 and plan 3, MCLs were retracted 5 mm from breast and SCL, respectively. Plan 4 with all of MLC retracted at the junction were designed. In all of the plans, collimator angle for SCL field was divided into $0^{\circ}$ and $270^{\circ}$. To verify junction dose, the dose at 3cm depth of junction was compared with average value by MapCHECK. Results: In case of the SCL field with $0^{\circ}$ collimator angle, average value of D3cm was 4131.1, 4215.9, 4351.4, and 4423.0 cGy. In case of the SCL field with $270^{\circ}$ collimator angle, average value of D3cm was 4044.3, 4246.7, 4291.1, and 4441.2 cGy. In plan1 and 3, change in average dose depending on collimator angle was changed more significantly than paln2 and 4. Dose measured at 3cm depth of junction was similar to treatment plan. Conclusion: In radiation therapy plan for breast cancer with SCL, retracting MLCs from junction between breast and SCL fields will lead to decrease effect of dose of the junction.
