The posterior and multidirectional instability of the shoulder is a complex problem in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Increased joint volume by redundant capsular ligament has been regarded as a major pathogenesis of the posterior and multidirectional instability. Distinct from multidirectional hyperlaxity, multidirectional instability has symptoms related with increased translations in more than one direction. Recent report that shoulder symptom originates from labral lesion which was created by excessive rim-loading of the humeral head on the posteroinferior glenoid labrum during repetitive subluxation helps us to understand the pathogenesis of such instability. Painful jerk and Kim tests indicate labral lesion in the multidirectionally loose shoulder, suggesting multidirectional instability. Also, painful jerk test is a prognostic sign of failure of nonoperative treatment. The labral lesion can be an incomplete tear or a concealed lesion which often has been underestimated. Operative treatment is indicated when nonoperative treatment has failed. Arthroscopic capsulolabroplasty is a reliable procedure, which not only provides capsular balance, but also restores the labral height.

Rupture of the esophagus after blunt trauma is a rare event. But any type of esophageal rupture has the high morbidity and mortality rate. In these situations, the sign and symptom of the esophageal rupture is subtle and nonspecific; therefore, the physicians are usually not suspicious. Delaying in diagnosis prevents proper treatment (surgical or non-surgical) before significant complications occurred. We report a case of a cervical esophageal perforation with primary repair and drainage after blunt trauma.

The occlusive coronary artery disease presents a potential threat to a significant population in the United State. According to many case reports, the increasing incidence of coronary artery disease due to atherosclerosis is noted in Korean, recently. We experienced one case of coronary artery disease. He was a 68 year old male who had been suffered from hypertension since 1 5 years ago, and had intermittent conservative treatment at local clinic. He had been afflicted with severe chest pain on exertion, but this symptom was relieved on rest. Pre-operative EKG finding revealed no any other ischemic sign. Significant S-T segment depression was noted at lead II, aVF, V3, V4, and V5, and inverted T wave in V5 and V6 after Master`s test. Simple chest X-ray finding showed emphysematous field, bilaterally. Final pre-operative diagnosis was made by coronary angiogram, which showed almost 90% degree of occlusive lesion in the proximal part of left main coronary artery above the origin LAD artery. He was treated successfully by aorta-coronary saphenous vein graft under extra-corporeal circulation in May, 1987. He has been followed up with uneventful course.

Early detection of premonitory symptom of slope movement ensures tremendous saving of lives and repair costs from catastrophic disaster. Therefore, it is essential to constantly monitor the performance and integrity of both reinforced and un-reinforced cut slopes. We developed a novel monitoring system by using tension wire sensors. It's advantages are highly sensitivity, simple installation, large displacement measurement, durability of system, capability of remote sensing. Real-time measurement of slope surface movement is shown graphically and it gives a warning when the monitored value exceeds a given threshold level so that any sign of abnormal slope movement can be easily perceived.

In recent years the relationship between occlusal stability, mandibular position and temporomandibular joint function has been greatly emphasized. Anterior repositiong splint has been used for the purpose of correcting a disk-condyle in coordination, so we have usually wed it in ease of the click of the temporpmandibular joint. We have used anterior repositioning splint in 28 patients who have chief-complain of click in symptoms of the temporomandibular joint arthrosis. At the patients who had long-lasting symptom and sign, late click or degenerative change of the temporomandibular joint, the anterior repositioning splint had less effect on than we had expected. So we are now to report that we must pay attention to use of anterior repositioning spint.

The purpose of this study was to identify the above mentioned therapy on the reduction of functional leg length inequality, by the manipulation(Thonpson technique). In 8 patients who have been chronically ill with low back pain and functional leg length inequality, for past 12 weeks, we analyzed and observed the progress of symptom and sign on pelvis(femur head line level, ilium length, ilium rotation), using by X-ray. The results after 12 week treatment, compared with before treatment, were as follows : 1. The improved in femur head line in the manipulation after 12 week treatment was very significant(p<.01) 2. The improved in ilium length in the manipulation after 12 week treatment was very significant(p<.01) 3. The improved in ilium rotation in the manipulation after 12 week treatment was significant(p<.05).

This study is performed to report that oriental medical treatment was effective to the patient with piriformis syndrome after traffic accident. The patient was diagnosed as piriformis syndrome by considering clinical symptom, clinical history, physical examination, radiologic study and NCV EMG study. We applied acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, Chuna manipulation and exercise to the patient. After treatment, VAS decreased, and physical examination sign was disappeared. This result suggest that oriental medical treatment can be effective to piriformis syndrome.

Behçet disease (BD) is rare in childhood. We report a 9-year-old boy with neuro-Behçet disease who presented diplopia and weakness on the left side after a cerebral concussion. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed hyperintensity of the right mesodiencephalic junction on T2-weighted and fluid attenuated inversion recovery images. Prednisolone administration resulted in complete remission and normalization of abnormal MRI finding. Brain MRI is a useful diagnostic tool when the neurological sign is the first symptom of subclinical BD.

Extradural meningiomas are relatively rare and those arising from spinal root are even rarer. Recently, a case of extradural meningioma arising from a spinal nerve root was surgically treated in our institution. This patient was a 19-year-old female presented with paraparesis and paresthesia. The mass was compressing the spinal cord at the level of fourth thoracic spine, and it was extended to the nerve root. At operation it was found to be originated from the fourth thoracic spinal nerve root. After removal of the tumor, the neurologic symptom and sign were recovered completely. Histoligic examination of tumor revealed as transitional type of meningioma.
