The purpose of this study is to offer the raw data for establishing the management and restoration plan by objective surveying and analysing the flora distributed in Seoak District, Gyeongju National Park, Korea. The flora summarized as 411 taxa including 92 families, 285 genera, 363 species, 2 subspecies, 41 varieties and 5 forms. The rare plants designated by Korea Forest Service were 2 taxa including Exochorda serratifolia and Potentilla discolor. The Korean endemic plants were 3 taxa including Philadelphus schrenkii, Lespedeza maritima and Weigela subsessilis. The specific plants by floristic region were 16 taxa including Asplenium sarelii, Pyrrosia petiolosa, Vitex negundo var. incisa and so forth. The target plants adaptable to climate change were 2 taxa including Lespedeza maritima and Carpesium macrocephalum, and the plants with approval for delivering oversea were 4 taxa including Exochorda serratifolia, Glycine soja, Lespedeza maritima and Weigela subsessilis. The naturalized plants were 51 taxa including Phytolacca americana, Viola papilionacea, Lamium purpureum and so forth. The invasive alien plants were 3 taxa including Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Aster pilosus and Lactuca scariola. NI(Naturalized Index) was 12.4% of all 411 taxa of surveyed flora in this study and UI(Urbanized Index) was 15.9% of all 321 taxa of naturalized plants in Korea. Potentilla discolor in rare plant, Philadelphus schrenkii in endemic plant and Dictamnus dasycarpus in specific plant were established the conservation plan. Whereas, invasive alien plants such as Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Aster pilosus and Lactuca scariola should be removed as soon as possible. The damaged sites in Seoak District were divided between wildfire area and farmland. To restore a forest fire site, we will have to apply a natural renewal and community planting. In case of farmland, we will have to do ecological planting using native species and constrcut a forest wetland.

Hunter syndrome or mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS-II) (OMIM 309900) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficiency in the activity of the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase. This enzyme is responsible for the catabolism of the following two different glycosaminoglycans (GAGs): dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. The lysosomal accumulation of these GAG molecules results in cell, tissue, and organ dysfunction. Patients can be broadly classified as having one of the following two forms of MPS II: a severe form and an attenuated form. In the severe form of the disease, signs and symptoms (including neurological impairment) develop in early childhood, whereas in the attenuated form, signs and symptoms develop in adolescence or early adulthood, and patients do not experience significant cognitive impairment. The involvement of the skeletal-muscle system is because of essential accumulated GAGs in joints and connective tissue. MPS II has many clinical features and includes two recognized clinical entities (mild and severe) that represent two ends of a wide spectrum of clinical severities. However, enzyme replacement therapy is likely to have only a limited impact on bone and joint disease based on the results of MPS II studies. The aim of this study was to review the involvement of joints in MPS II.

Investigation of flora was performed from March to October of 2008 as Eastern and Western coastal districts located in the same latitude ($36^{\circ}47^{\prime}-37^{\circ}48^{\prime}$), in order to apply this to basic data for effective protection and management of coastal forests also for insurance of biodiversity in coastal forests. As a result of the investigation of floras, both coastal forests recorded product-plants as follows: 98 families, 262 genera, 370 species, 46 varieties, 4 forms, 1 hybrid, 421 taxa in total. The Eastern coastal forests had 85 families, 188 genus, 248 species, 32 varieties, 3 forms, 1 hybrid, 285 taxa in total, whereas Western coastal forest had 96 families, 227 genus, 306 species, 39 varieties, 2 forms, 1 hybrid, 348 taxa in total. Among them, seashore plants accounted for 10.2% of total plants appeared in both coastal, and they are 26 families, 38 genus, 40 species, 3 hybrids and 43 taxa in total. There are special Korea plants in both coastal; 9 families, 9 genus, 8 species, 1 varieties, 1 hybrid, 10 taxa in total. There are rare plants in both coastal; 8 families, 8 genus, 7 species, 1 varieties, 8 taxa in total. Naturalized plants are also existed; 11 families, 24 species, 1 variety, 30 taxa in total.

Pulmonary amyloid deposition generally occurs with concurrent primary systemic amyloidosis. Localized forms of pulmonary amyloidosis are rare and appear most frequently as an incidental finding on chest radiographs. We present a case of nodular pulmonary amyloid tumor suggested by fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC) and confirmed by histology examination with the polarizing light microscopy. A 41-year-old woman presented with ill-defined nodules. In the middle and lower lobes of both lungs. FNAC of the nodules revealed waxy, acellular amorphous fragments. Thoracotomy for diagnosis may be avoided by FNAC diagnosis of this unusual lesion.

Epidermolysis Bullosa(EB) is rare, chronic mechanobullous disease, which easily produce bulla by minor trauma or spontaneously. There are three major forms of Epidermolysis bullosa - Epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Junctional epidermolysis bullosa, Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. This report is on the 21-year-old female patient who has Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa(Recessive Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa-mitis). The Korean medical treatments such as acupuncture and herbal medication were used, with light therapy : Carbon Are, which is known for effect of dermal resuscitation. As a result, Carbon Arc and Korean medical treatment's effect of dermal resuscitation is proved in this study. But more cases are necessary for establishing more effective treatment methods.

Rapunzel syndrome refers to a very rare condition in which swallowed hair forms a gastric trichobezoar that has a long tail extending into the small bowel. We describe a case of Rapunzel syndrome in an 8-year-old girl who presented with abdominal mass, epigastric pain and vomiting. Abdominal computed tomography scan showed a markedly dilated stomach filled with coarse heterogeneous materials. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a huge hairy ball with a tail extending through the pylorus. We performed a surgical laparotomy and successfully removed a huge trichobezoar with a long tail extending into the middle portion of jejunum. Psychiatric consultation with review showed her past history of trichotillomania and trichophagia 4 years ago. But her parents denied further psychiatric therapy and she was lost to the follow-up. Rapunzel syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis in children with chronic abdominal pain and trichophagia.

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation[CCAM] is a rare disease that cause respiratory distress in the newborn and infants, but is one of the two causes along with lobar emphysema. This malformation has the pathologic characteristics which can be differentiated from other forms of diffuse cystic disease, i.e. CCAM is marked proliferation of the terminal bronchioles and that can enlarge rapidly by air trapping in cystic areas. The CCAM has a clinical importance because of rapid worsening respiratory distress, with tachypnea, subcostal retraction and cyanosis. This is a strict surgical condition and after operation[lobar, segmental resection or pneumonectomy] the symptoms relieved obviously. We experienced 6 cases of CCAM from July, 1980 to September, 1987 at the Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, Severance Hospital, College of Medicine, Yonsei University. The male patients were two and female patients were four. The age distribution was from premature to 10 year old. One of them was 27 weeks gestational premature female who was borne dead. The other 5 patients were performed on thoractomy[1 case pneumonectomy and 5 cases lobectomy]. The postoperative courses were good and no complications were seen.
