In our hospital we have seen 38 cases of esophageal cancer from June 1984 until June 1994. They composed of 34[89% men and 4[11% women, their age distributed from 35 to 74, mean age was 57.55 7.43. Their symptoms were varied, dysphagia[97% , pyrosis[58% , chest pain[31% , weight loss[31% , anemia[8% , vomiting[5% , and hoarseness[1% . Surgical treatment was done with esophagectomy and upper GI reconstruction 35 cases, and palliative gastrostomy was 3 cases. There was no operative mortality, and operative morbidity was 8 cases of anastomotic leakage, 5 cases of wound infection, 5 cases of pleural effusion, hoarseness, pneumothorax, and lung abscess. Pathologic lesion distribution: upper thoracic esophagus 6 cases[16% , middle thoracic esophagus 17 cases[45% , and lower thoracic esophagus 15 cases[39% . There was no statistical difference of transhiatal esophagectomy and transthoracic esophagectomy in complications and hospitalization period in this study but we proved the superiority of gastric upper GI reconstruction rather than colon upper GI reconstruction in anastomotic leakage and hospitalization period. Cumulative survival rate was 76.2% in 1 year survival, 33.9% in 3 year survival, 25.4% in 5 year survival, 12.7% in 10 year survival. There was no relationship with the time of dysphagia with survival in this study.

A clinical study was made on 72 cases of primary lung cancer operated in the department of thoracic & cardiovascular surgery, Kyungpook national university hospital from January 1975 to May 1985. The ratio of male to female was 13.4: I and mean age was 53. Histologically, squamous cell carcinoma comprised 72.2% of 72 operated cases. Before admission to our hospital, the erroneous diagnoses were made at local clinics on the 43 cases[59.7%] and a large percentage of them was diagnosed as pulmonary tuberculosis. And then, total of 56 cases received inadequate treatment or delayed the operation. For the location of the tumor, right to left ratio is 1.2:1 and the right upper lobe was most often involved [23.6%]. Operation was performed on the 72 cases and resection on the 59 cases[8.2%]. Postsurgical staging showed that stage III was found most frequently [59.4%] and T,N,M, was 28% of total cases. Two common surgical complications were bleeding in 7 and acute respiratory failure in 6 cases, and these 6 cases of acute respiratory failure were all died. On the basis of these experiences, we conclude that aggressive effort is needed for the early accurate diagnosis and adequate treatment of lung cancer.

This study was designed to survey misused expression in 37 KS (Korean Industrial standards) related to personal protective equipment. The results were as follows: 1. One hundred and twenty five misused expressions were found - 44 expressions were used illogically (35.2 %). 80 expressions were wrongly described (64.0 %) The types of illogically misused are: 10 illogical cases, 4 cases of a wrongly designated provision when cited, 12 cases of the lack of provisons for KS, 7 cases of a inappropriate uses of units, 8 cases of an overlapped sizes between standards. - The types of expressions wrongly described are: 30 cases of confusion in using an terms, 4 case of making an error when proofreading, and 29 cases of choosing words not appropriate to describe technical standard, 18 cases of unclear provisons due to missing phrases and terms, and 11 cases of provisons described differently from original intended purposes. 2. There is one case, where the same standard is categorized as two different names. There are three major causes of the misused expressions as seen from the following summary: - Imitated the developed countries' standards without filtering them by considering domestic law and ocher KS standards. - Tended to create each definition for each standard instead use of the basic standard. - Insufficiency of synthetic examination to the correlation between standards.

Benign lung tumors compose a heterogeneous group of solid growths that present variations in clinical features, depending on whether the origin is within the bronchus on lung parenchyma or from visceral pleura. Benign tumors of the lung are relatively uncommon, and series are to be found in the literature and the classification of benign tumors of the lung continues to be controversial because of disagreement concerning the origin and prognosis of many common lesions. We adopt Liebows original classification but excluded bronchial adenoma which no longer considered as benign tumor and added pulmonary A-V fistula and congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation. We analyzed 61 cases of benign tumors which were composed of 16 original Korean cases and 45 cases which were reported on journal of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery. The results were. [1] Incidence; Of 61 cases, chondromatous hamartoma was 2 cases [41 %], congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation 10 cases [16.4 %], pulmonary A-V fistula 5 cases [8.1 %], sclerosing hemangioma 4 cases [6.5 %], teratoma, plasma cell granuloma & mesothelioma were 3 cases [4.9%], Castlemans disease 2 cases [3.3%], and mucous gland adenoma, paraganglioma, and leiomyoma 1 case [1.6 %]. [2] Age & Sex distribution; Male 30 cases and female 31 cases. Mean age was 31.4 years old. [3] Main symptom; was coughing, 32.8%, and no symptom, 24.6%. [4] Sixty eight percentage of chest film showed mass density, and 4 cases showed calcification, 2 cases had lobulation. [5] Size of mass was large and multiple mass was 2 cases. Endobronchial tumors were 9 cases, 14.9 %. [6] Three cases of endobronchial tumor were preoperatively diagnosed by bronchoscopy and 2 cases of pulmonary A-V fistula were diagnosed by pulmonary arteriography. [7] Seven cases, 11.5%, had associating diseases such as bronchogenic cyst, thymic cyst, Schwannoma, situs inversus, bronchiectasis and bronchogenic carcinoma. [8] Minor resection such as excision 8i: wedge resection were 15 cases, 26.2 %, and 6 cases, 75.4 %, of lobectomy were performed including 5 cases of pneumonectomy 5 cases had. [9] Postoperative complications; One case, 1.6 %, expired due to respiratory insufficiency. Two cases had re-operation due to bleeding and hemoptysis.

Purpose: While all midshaft clavicle fractures have traditionally been treated with conservative measures, recent operative treatment of displaced, communited midshaft clavicle fractures has become more common. Though a recent increase in operative treatment for midshaft clavicle fractures, we have done the operative methods in limited cases. The aim of this study is to present indications, operative techniques and outcomes of the experienced cases that have applied to this limited group over the previous 10 years. Methods: This study consists of a retrospective review of radiological and clinical data from January of 2005 to July of 2015. Operative criteria for midshaft clavicle fractures having considerable risk of bone healing process were 4 groups - a floating shoulder, an open fracture, an associated neurovascular injury, and a nonunion case after previous treatment. Results: The study consisted of 18 patients who had operative treatment for midshaft clavicle fractures in adults. The most common surgical indication was a floating shoulder (10 cases, 55.6%), followed by nonunion (5 cases, 27.8%), an associated neurovascular injury (4 cases, 22.2%), and open fracture (3 cases, 16.7%). All cases were treated by open reduction and internal fixation in anterosuperior position with reconstruction plate or locking compression plate. Bone union was achieved in all cases except 1 case which was done bone resection due to infected nonunion. Mean bone union period was 19.5 weeks. There were no postoperative complications, but still sequelae in 4 cases of brachial plexus injury. Conclusion: We have conducted an open reduction and internal fixation by anterosuperior position for midshaft clavicle fractures in very limited surgical indications for last 10 years. Our treatment strategy for midshaft clavicle fractures showed favorable radiological results and low postoperative complications.

The purpose of this study is to look into nurse's legal duty and to analyze influencing factors, by reading through precedents in nursing-related malpractice cases. 157 clinic nurses and 40 head nurses who were working in 3 university hospitals in the area of Seoul and KyongKi province were surveyed with pre-set questionnaires which were based on 20 cases and to compare precedents with nurses' attitudes. Independent variables were demographic characteristics, job characteristics, experience and education, and personal characteristics. Dependent variables were the extents of understanding in their duty. To analyze the extent of duty understanding t-text. ANOVA, and multiple regression were performed according to the characteristics of each study subject. Main findings are as follows; 1. $X^2$ test was performed for each hospitals and job category. The existence of religion and job-related advisers were significantly different according to hospitals and job categories. The existences of the orientation for nursing, education, and meeting were significantly different according to hospitals. 2. The extent of duty understanding according to the subject characteristics was assessed by means of median. Each case was given the median. 12 cases(46%)out of 26 cases demonstrated the median of more than 6 showing high extent of understanding. 3. When $X^2$ test was performed. the extent of duty understanding was significantly different in the areas of marriage status. the existence of meetings. and the experience of having dispute. When multiple regression(stepwise method) was performed, above variables were not statistically significant. 4.As result of comparative analysis on precedents and nurse's attitudes. it is 4 cases that nurse's attitudes is more active than precedents and it is 9 cases that nurse's attitudes is more passive than precedents and it is 4 cases that nurse's attitudes is parallel with precedents. This study does not present statistical model which can integrate all the cases. The significance of this study is in that it generalized and assessed the nurses' understanding of duty based on nursing -care which was legally disputed and compared nurse's attitude with precedents.
