- Cystic change on femoral head and neck in neurofbromatosis patient is rare case. Scoliosis is the most common bony lesion. Others are appeared at changes of out feature in long bone shaft. Bone cyst with bone fracture are treated with non operation or external fixation, osteotomy, curettage, partial and complete excision of cyst capsule, steroid injection therapy, bone graft, internal fixation, arthroplasty. We have experienced a case of bone cystic change on femoral head and neck with femoral head fracture and acetabular lesion in neurofibromatosis patient treated with total hip arthroplasty who was acceptable result.

- OBJECTIVES
In the recent years, osteoporosis and fracture with osteoporosis is growing due to increasing of old people. In case of fracture with osteoporosis, there is much socio-economic loss adding to the disability of patients. Prevention of osteoporosis and Fracture is more economic and more effective than treatment after occuring fracture. Study of risk factor of increasing fracture is meaningful. And the investigation of these factors, contributed to fracture can be used as milestone for prevention of fracture. METHOD Case-control study was done with the patients(191 case) who examined BMD (DEXA). Cases were divided into two group; one was fracture group(39 cases) and the other was non-fracture group(152 cases). Then weight, height, age, and BMD known asthe risk factors of the osteoporotic fractures were investigated and analyzed. RESULT 1. Non-fracture group showed high score than fracture group in weight, height and BMI, but there were no statistical differences.
2. Age of fracture group was higher 10 years more than that of non-fracture group and there were significant statistical differences.
3. The extent of osteoporosis was inversly proportional to age, but proportional to weight and height.
4. There were significant differences between fracture and non-fracture group in BMD, and after correction of age & BMI, significantly different in L1 and L3 vertebrae. CONCLUSION We suggest that BMD, age, weight, height and BMI have many influences on the fracture prevalence, the study for the effect of the various risk factorswill contribute to the prevention of the fracture.

- PURPOSE
: To analyze the results of open reduction and AO miniscrew fisation in displaced radial head fractures in adults.
Materials & Methods : We analyzed 10 cases of displaced radial head fractures who were operated with open reduction and AO miniscrew fixation from January 1996 to March 1998. All of the fractures were classified in the Mason classification. The functional rating index was used in follow-up assessment. RESULTS : Average flexion was 143.5degrees, and the mean fixed flexion deformity was 3.5 degrees. The average elbow score was 95.6 points Good or excellent results were achieved in 100%. No patient had evidence of valgus instability. CONCLUSION : We concluded that open reduction and internal fixation in Mason type II and reparable Mason type III radial head fractures gives satisfactory range of motion and stability in the elbow joint. We suggest that anatomical reduction of fracture fragments, rigid fixation, early mobilization and proper implant placement are important for the restoration of the elbow function
