To observe the healing process of the gingival wound in diabetic condition, the author induced diabetes mellitus by intravascular injection of streptozotocin in rat tail vein and made fresh wound in rat mandibular posterior gingiva using scalpel. The healing processes of gingival wound were examined periodically by light microscopy. The results were as follows. 1) The healing was completed at second week in control group, but it delayed until fourth week in experimental group and the organization was persisted for first two weeks. 2) The inflamed gingiva of dibetic rat demonstrated scanty polymorphonuclear lerkocytic infiltration at the early stage of experiment, but it soon became numerous as in cotrol group and the lymphocytic infiltrations were same degree as in control group. 3) The tissue destruction was broader in the experimental group than in the control group. The epithelization was began at the early stage of healing and the epithelial attachment was reformed with the completion of the wound healing. 4) Loss of Sharpey's fibers and destruction of cementum and alveolar bone were observed with the inflammatroy reaction, but these were reformed with the completion of the wound healing.

신경모세포종 환아에서 레티노익산 치료 중 급성 췌장염이 합병되어 사망한 1례를 경험하여 보고하는 바이다. 레티노익산을 사용하는 환아에서 췌장염을 예방하기 위해서는 지속적인 혈중 지방 수치 추적이 필요할 것으로 생각되고 치료 중 호전을 보이더라도 지속적인 감시와 관찰이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections mainly involve respiratory tract; however, also can manifestate other symptoms by site involved. Extrapulmonary manifestations of M. pneumoniae infection are rarely known to occur without pneumonia. Herein we report a case of a 9-year-old boy who presented with acute cholestatic hepatitis in the absence of pneumonia. Rhabdomyolysis, skin rash, and initial laboratory results suspicious of disseminated intravascular coagulopathy were also observed in this patient. M. pneumoniae infection was identified by a 4-fold increase in immunoglobulin G antibodies to M. pneumoniae between acute and convalescent sera by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. This is the first pediatric case in Korea of M. pneumoniae infection presenting with acute cholestatic hepatitis in the absence of pneumonia.

장티푸스는 10-15%에서 수막염, 폐렴, 심근염, 간염, 골수염, 파종성 혈관내 응고병증등의 심각한 합병증을 유발할수 있다. 소아에서 장티푸스 병발 후 신장에 발생되는 합병증은 국내외 모두 매우 드물다. 우리는 장티푸스 병발후 단백뇨, 고혈압, 신기능 저하가 동반된 급성 사구체 신염 케이스를 경험후 보고하는 바이다. 이 케이스는 대변 배양검사에서 병원체를 확인할 수는 없었지만 상승하는 Widal 수치로 장티푸스를 진단할 수 있었다. 장티푸스는 유병률은 감소하였지만 고열이 있는 경우 여전히 고려해보아야 하는 중요한 질환이다.

Percutaneous coronary angioplasty is well established therapeutic modality in the management of coronary artery disease. However, the high restenosis rate of 30 to 50% limits its usefulness. The principal mechanism of restenosis, intimal hyperplasia, is the proliferative response of vessel wall to injury, which consists largely of smooth muscle cells. A large body of animal investigations and a limited number of clinical studies have established the ability of ionizing radiation to reduce neointimal proliferation and restenosis rate significantly. Human studies have been reported that intravascular radiation after first restenosis inhibits a second restenosis. Encouraged by these reports, we are also conducting a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to evaluate this new therapeutic modality in patients with coronary artery stenosis. The objective of our trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of catheter-based solutional beta emitting radioisotope system in preventing restenosis after angioplasty. This review describes the vascular brachytherapy systems and isotopes that have been utilized in the initial clinical trials performed in this area of post PTCA coronary restenosis. The results of many worldwide ongoing clinical trials will determine whether this new technology will change the future practice of vascular intervention.

Malignant oncocytoma(oxyphil cell adenoma) is a extremely rare malignant tumor of the salivary glands and almost occurs in the parotid gland. A case of malignant oncocytoma of the parotid gland occurring in a 63 year old man is reported. Establishing a diagnosis of malignant oncocytoma essentially requires the application of two sets of criteria to the tumor under examination. First, the tumor cells must be identified as oncocyte and second, malignancy must be determined. Histochemical stains are not as useful as generally believed. Electron microscopy confirms the diagnosis by demonstrating an abundance of mitochondria. The diagnosis of malignant oncocytoma depends on several additional criteria in addition to cellular and nuclear pleomorphism, including lack of encapsulation, local infiltration, perineural and intravascular growth, and regional and/or distant metastasis. Satisfactory results from surgical resection and postoperative radiotherapy in our patient serve as additional experience in the treatment of this rare malignancy.

The present work was done to investigate the pharmacological effectiveness of Guichoolpajing-Tang and Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang. The extracted water of those two prescription were administered to experimintal animals and determined analgesic, anti-pyretic, anti-inflammatory effects and effects on intravascular coagulation, spontaneous morements of the isolated rat uterus, the uterine contracion induced by oxytocin or $PGF_{20}$, lifespan of mice implanted intraperitoneally with Sarcoma 180. The following results were obtained. 1) The extracted water of Guichoolpajing-Tang and Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang were revealed significant analgesic effect. 2) The extracted water of Guichoolpajing-Tang and Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang showed anti-pyretic effect. 3) The extracted water of Guichoolpajing-tang and Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang showed anti-inflammatory effect. Especially, the extracted water of Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang showed more significant dffect than another. 4) Concerning the degree of concentration of FDP, Gamiguichoolpajing-Tang treated groups tevealed significant decreases. 5) The extracted water of both prescriptions revealed uterus relaxation on the spontaneous movement of the isolated rat uterus and showed uterine contraction induced by oxytocin or $PDF_{2}$. Especially Guichoolpajing-Tang showed more significant effect than another. 6) The extracted water of both prescription both prescriptions showed effect on lifespan of mice implanted intraperitoneally with Sarcoma 180.

The use of intravenous catheters are occasionally complicated by intravascular fragments and swelling of the catheter fragments. We present a patient in whom an intravenous catheter fragments was retrieved from the dorsal metacarpal vein following its incidental CT examination detection. The case of demonstrates the utility of microscopy and multi-detector CT in localizing small of subtle intravenous catheter fragments as a human error. A case of IV catheter fragments in the metacarpal vein, in which reproducible and microscopy data allowed complete localization of a missing fragments and guided surgery with respect to the optimal incision site for fragments removal. These reproducible studies may help to determine the best course of action and treatment for the patient who presents with such a case.

Platelet activating factor (PAP) has been known as implicating as one of potent inflammatory mediators and reported 0 be involved in inflammation and allergy. PAF induces ciliary dysfunction and epithelial damage of human paranasal sinus mucosa in vitro. However, several recent papers have reported that PAF may not readily damage the airway epithelium. The aim of this study was to investigate the ultrastructural evidence to elucidate the pathogenesis of epithelial damage induced by PAF. Sixteen $\mu\textrm{g}$ g of PAF was applied into the maxillary sinuses of 6 rabbits. Rabbits were divided into 2 subgroups along with time interval at 1st and 3rd experimental day, and sinus mucosae were taken for the histopathologic study using electron microscopy. At 1st day, epithelial cells showed no ultrastructural change. Ultrastructures of the cilia were well preserved. Subepithelial space showed no evidence of the infiltration of inflammatory cells. Intravascular platelet aggregation and swelling of endothelial cells were evident. At 3rd day, epithelial cells showed vacuolar degeneration. Fusion of cilia forming giant cilia and focal loss of cilia were evident. Eosinophils were infiltrated in subepithelial and intraepithelial space. Swelling of endothelial cells, and migration of inflammatory cells into the connective tissue were evident. This study implies that epithelial damage induced by PAF may be secondary to the cytotoxicity of mobilized eosinophils rather than direct cytotoxicity of PAF.
