  • Nucleoplasty is a type of percutaneous disc decompression that has been developed to treat herniated intervertebral discs. Currently, in some clinics, researchers have also applied this procedure to patients with internal disc disruption, apart from the originally intended usage on herniated intervertebral discs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of this extended use based on medical logic. To achieve this, the author analyzed case studies on performing nucleoplasty on patients with internal disc disruption. The main points of the analysis are, first, the validity of the treatment evidence presented by the researchers and, second, the relevance of the patient selection criteria. As a result, it is judged that the therapeutic rationale of existing papers applying nucleoplasty to the treatment of internal disc disruption is unclear or inconsistent with general medical logic, and in the process of patient screening, discs that may be deemed inappropriate for percutaneous decompression are included. Therefore, the author believes that existing studies applying nucleoplasty to the treatment of internal disc disruption have the nature of somewhat adventurous experiments that are unnecessary or can cause potential side effects. In order to uphold patients' rights and improve the completeness of the study in the research process on this topic, the author thinks that it is essential to establish clearer therapeutic evidence than the current level of understanding and to have an elaborate patient screening process based on it.

  • Afferent loop syndrome (ALS) is a rare complication of gastrectomies and gastrointestinal reconstruction. This can predispose patients to fatal conditions, such as cholangitis, pancreatitis, and duodenal perforation with peritonitis. Therefore, emergency decompression is necessary to prevent these complications. Herein, we report two cases in which transcholecystic duodenal drainage, an alternative decompression treatment, was performed in ALS patients without bile duct dilatation. Two patients who underwent distal gastrectomy with Billroth II anastomosis sought consultation in an emergency department for epigastric pain and vomiting. On CT, ALS with acute pancreatitis was diagnosed. However, biliary access could not be achieved because of the absence of bile duct dilatation. To overcome this problem, a duodenal drainage catheter was placed to decompress the afferent loop after traversing the cystic duct via a transcholecystic approach. The patients were discharged without additional surgical treatment 2 weeks and 1 month after drainage.

  • 상업용 인쇄 시장이 지속적으로 위촉되고 있는 지금, 일부 발 빠른 인쇄사는 서비스 영역을 이미 라벨 시장으로 확대하고 있다. 물론 이를 가능하게 하는 것은 라벨 시장의 꾸준한 성장세다. 미국의 컨설팅 그룹인 프리도니아US는 미국의 라벨 시장 매출액이 2015년에 200억 달러까지 증가할 것이라고 전망한 바 있다. 이 가운데 감압 라벨이 전체의 약 70%를 차지할 것이라고 예측했다.
