낭은 상피세포로 싸여있는 병적인 공간으로 내부가 액체나 반액체로 채워져 있다. 악골에서 낭은 다른 골 부위에서보다 더 흔하게 발생하는데 이는 대부분의 낭이 치아 형성 후에 악골에 남아있는 치성잔류물로부터 발생하는 경우가 많기 때문이다. 구강악안면부에서 발생하는 낭은 연조직에서 발생할 수도 있지만 대부분 골내에서 발생하고, 법랑질 상피나 치배와 관련해 악골내에 발생하는 치낭성이다. 치낭성은 WHO분류에서 발생근원에 따라 크게 염증성과 발육성 기원의 두 가지 군으로 분류되고, 발육성 낭은 치성과 비치성으로 세분할 수 있다. 악골에 발생하는 낭은 대부분이 치낭성이며 가장 흔한 악골 낭종은 치근단낭으로 염증성이고, 발육성인 함치성낭과 치성각화낭도 다음으로 발생률이 높은 편이다. 소아환자에서 함치성낭과 치성각화낭의 발병률이 성인보다 더 높았다. 비치성낭 중에서 비구개관낭이 가장 많이 발생하며, 연조직에서 발생하는 낭과 상피세포 경계가 없는 낭성 병소인 가성낭(pseudocyst)은 드물게 관찰된다. WHO에서 치성각화낭과 서회화치성낭은 파괴적 성장을 하고 재발 경향이 높으므로 양성 낭성 종양으로 재분류하고 있다.

Osteochondromadevelop most commonly at distal femur, proximal humerus and proximal tibia, but the rib osteochondroma was reported less commonly. In this report, scapular snapping syndrome complicated by adventitious bursa and soft tissue pseudotumor surrounding the osteochondroma of the $6^{th}$ rib body was treated successfully by surgical excision of them. We report this rare case with reviewing the relevant literature.

Ranula is a mucocele which occurs at the mouth floor and is mostly related to sublingual gland. In other words ranula is definded as a pseudocyst which occurs as the secretion duct of sublingual gland is destructed there as the saliva from the secretion duct flows out and retention in the soft tissue. The cause of ranula is destruction or obstruction of the duct. The clinical findings of ranula is a painless, unilateral bluish transparent swelling around the frenum and shows fluctuation when palpated. Histological finding represent a formation of cavity inside the connective tissue, but a pseudo-cyst can be seen which the wall of the cyst is composed of granulation tissue rather than epithelial cells. The first treatment of ranula can be considered as marsupialization. which induces the inner wall of the Ranula to be a part of oral mucosa. This case report shows a treatment of marsupialization with gauze packing in a young patient representing a clinical finding of characteristic ranula.

Pseudocysts of lung by blunt chest trauma are rare lesion with 1 to 2 % incidence. The symptoms are nonspecific and misled or confused with lung abscess or congenital cystic disease of lung occasionally. Diagnosis is not difficult by radiographic findings and history of blunt chest trauma. There courses are benign and spontaneously absorbed and require no specific treatment mostly. Recently, we had the one case of 8 year-old female with traumatic lung cyst and its cavities filled the entire right lower lobe. The destruction of lung was severe, so, right lower lobectomy was done and recovered, discharged without event.

Purpose: Childhood pancreatitis has more various and somewhat different etiology than adult. Until now the analysis of severity in childhood pancreatitis were not well-known, although several studies have been made. Therefore, we studied the etiology and complications in childhood pancreatitis and analyzed whether Ranson and CT criteria could be applicated to evaluate the severity of childhood pancreatitis patients. Methods: The records of 30 patients with pancreatitis under 15 years of ages who were diagnosed in Asan medical center were reviewed. Age, sex, history, etiology, clinical features and treatment was reviewed in all patients but complications, Ranson and CT criteria were available in only 12 patients. Correlation between the number of complications and both Ranson and CT criteria were calculated with Spearman correlation coefficient. Results: 1. Median age at diagnosis was 7.3 years of age. 28 cases were acute pancreatitis and 2 cases were chronic pancreatitis. 2. Etiology: choledochal cyst(8 cases), drug (7 cases), trauma (4 cases), infection (3 cases), biliary stone or bile sludge (3 cases), idiopathic (2 cases) Hemolytic uremic syndrome, pancreatic duct obstruction, iatrogenic (1 case). 3. Local complications were ascites (5 cases), pseudocyts (4 cases) and systemic complications were hyperglycemia (4 cases), hypocalcemia (3 cases), pleural effusion (3 cases), etc. 4. Positive correlation was found between the number of complication and Ranson creteria (r=0.78, P=0.0016) and between the number of complication and CT criteria (r=0.65, P=0.015) in 13 cases. Conclusion: A trial to search the biliary duct anomaly may help to find the causes of childhood idiopathic pancreatitis, and both Ranson and CT criteria can be applicated to pediatric patients to evaluate the severity of childhood pancreatitis.

A 69-year old man presented with severe epigastric pain for 1 day. He had early gastric cancer at the antrum and underwent a distal subtotal gastrectomy and Billorth II gastrojejunostomy one month later without any post-operative complications. Radiologic examination revealed a large amount of retroperitoneal free air formation. Because of unremitting pain and unstable vital sign, exploratory laparotomy was followed. During the operation, a perforated duodenal diverticulum at the posterior wall of the 2nd portion of the duodenum was identified. He underwent diverticulectomy and primary closure. He was discharged on the 18th post operative day and has been followed up without any evidence of comlpication for several months.
