혈관외피세포종(Malignant hemangiopericytoma)은 난원형의 혈관외피세포(pericyte)들로 구성된 매우 드문 혈관종의 일종으로 대개 사지 및 후복막에 발생되며, 안면부와 경부에도 약 25%가량의 발생율이 보고되어 있다. 성별 발생빈도의 차이는 없고 $20{\sim}50$대에서 호발하며, 종양은 대부분 서서히 성장하고 경계가 명확한 무통성의 고형 종괴로 나타난다. 악성과 양성의 구별은 조직학적 소견과 주변 조직으로의 침습, 원격전이 여부 등을 고려하여 판단하지만, 양성으로 진단된 경우에도 수년 내에 재발 및 원격전이가 나타나는 경우가 다수 보고되므로 악성과 양성의 감별이 매우 어렵고. 양성인 경우에도 악성 잠재성이 존재하는 것으로 알려졌다. 치료는 수술적 완전절제가 유일한 방법이나 절제가 불완전한 경우는 수술 후 외부 방사선 조사를 한다. 항암제 투여는 효과면에서 논란이 있지만, 원격전이나 수술과 방사선 치료가 실패한 경우 시행할 수 있다. 저자들은 최근 안면부에 발생한 악성 혈관외피세포종 환자 1예를 치험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

After esophagectomy, the stomach is used most commonly for the method of reconstruction. However, the stomach may not be large enough to be reached the site of anastomosis when it is above the pharynx. We experienced a double primary cancer of the lower esophagus and the larynx. Total laryngectomy and total esophagectomy were done with cervical pharyngojejunogastrostomy for reconstruction. Free jejunal graft is interposed between the oropharyngeal stump and the stomach is pulled-up. We could restore the alimentary track without tension at the anastomotic site and obtain sufficient blood supply.

측두하악장애환자와 정상대조군의 두경부 근육에 있어서 실제 또는 위약 치료에 따른 저출력 레이저의 효과와 측두하악장애환자에서 저출력 레이저의 효과적인 치료기간을 평가하기 위하여, 측두하악장애를 가진 부산대학교 치과대학생 19명과 측두하악장애의 병력이나 증상이 없는 부산대학교 치과대학생 20명을 대상으로 치료전, 치료 2주 및 치료 4주에 구외촉진이 가능한 32 근골격 촉진점의 압력통각역치와 각각의 동통정도와 두개하악지수를 측정하여 다음과 갈은 결론을 얻었다, 1. 치료전 환자군의 압력통각역치는 정상대조군 압력통각역치보다 낮았다(p<0.05), 2. 환자군의 압력통각역치는 유의하게 증가하였으며 (p<0.05) 레이저 조사 환자군의 증가된 압력통각역치는 레이저 모의조사-환자군의 증가된 압력통각역치보다 더 크게 나타났다. 3. 대조군에서는 레이저 조사나 모의 조사에 의해 압력통각역치와 변화가 없었다. 4. 레이저 조사-환자군의 압력통각역치가 안면근육에서는 치료2주부터 유의하게 증가하였고 경부근육에서는 치료4주부터 유의하게 증가하였다(p<0.05) 5. 레이저 조사-환자군에서 동통의 정도와 두개하악지수는 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05).

Brachial plexus injury is regarded as one of the most devastating injuries of the upper extremity. Accurate diagnosis is important to obtain the successful results. Basic preoperative evaluation includes simple radiography, cervical myelography. Magnetic resonance imaging, angiography, electrophysiologic studies and intraoperative studies. Furthermore, proper timing of surgery, surgical indication, plan and sufficient understanding of patients about the prognosis are the key for the satisfactory outcomes. This article provides an overview of the evaluation, diagnosis, intraoperative monitoring, and proper surgical planning for the treatment of posttraumatic brachial plexus injuries.

Malignant Melanoma refers to a malignant neoplasm of melanocytes. Primary malignant melanoma of oral cavity is rare. Most frequent site of primary oral malignant melanoma are palate & gingiva. We have experienced 2 cases of malignant melanoma of the mouth. In one case, we performed wide surgical excision which was followed by chemotherapy with DTIC. In the other case, performed wide surgical excision only. There is no evidence of recurrence or of metastasis of the lesions 22 months, 12 months after operation, respectively.

Among the causes of SVC syndrome, intraluminal tumor, especially the leiomyosarcoma is very rare. We report a 39 year old female patient who had been suffering from headache and facial edema for 6 weeks before admission. On physical examination, facial edema and venous engorgement on upper extermities and upper chast wall were showed. The chest CT scan and SVC cavogram showed a long intraluminal mass lesion resulting in a near total obstruction of the SVC Surgery was performed through median sternotomy. For complete resection of the tumor and thrombus, we used partial and total CPB. The follow up SVC cavogram revealed no abnormality 14 months after the operation.

Fine needle aspiration cytologic features of a case of insular carcinoma of the thyroid in a 23-year-old woman who presented a palpable neck mass is described. The aspirate showed cellular smear arranged in trabeculae, solid or loose clusters, and microfillicles in necrotic background. The tumor cells had uniform, small round, hyperchromatic nuclei. The chromatin was finely granular, and nuclear membrane was smooth. Nucleoli were not discernible. Nuclear pleomorphism was minimal. The cytoplasm was usually scanty, pale, poorly outlined, and almostly amphophilic. Sometimes paranuclear cytoplasmic vacuoles were noted. final diagnosis was confirmed by total thyroidectomy as insular carcinoma.

Liposarcoma is a malignant tumor originated from adipose tissue, accounting for 20% of all soft tissue sarcomas. A 69-year-old man with anterior and posterior neck mass visited to our department and we performed an excisional biopsy in level I. Histopathological examination revealed liposarcoma, so we performed wide excision in anterior and posterior neck, and adjuvant radiotherapy. We report a unique case of well-differentiated liposarcoma on anterior and posterior neck with literature review. To our best knowledge, such case has not been reported earlier in Korea previously.

Spindle cell carcinomas of the head and neck are unusual neoplasms that are histologically biphasic, having both squamous cell carcinoma and apparently malignant spindle cell or sarcomatous element. Controversy about the histogenesis of these tumors has resulted in various terminology ; sarcomatoid carcinoma, pseudosarcoma, carcinosarcoma, and spindle cell carcinoma. The clinical course and natural history of these tumors are also variable. We report a case of 64-year-old male who complained of a neck mass. The patient was treated with extended radical neck dissection and postoperative radiotherapy, but the primary site of spindle cell carcinoma could not be found. We reviewed the clinical course, treatment, prognosis, and histogenesis of spindle cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

경동맥 파열은 악성 종양으로 인한 두경부 수술의 1-5%에서 발생하고 80%의 사망률과 생존자의 50%에서 신경학적 후유증을 나타낸다. 저자들은 수술전ㆍ후 방사선치료를 받은 환자 2례에서 경동맥파열을 경험하였다. 제 1례는 51세의 남자로서 후두암($T_4$NoMx)으로 후두전적출술과 6120 rad의 수술후 방사선 치료 후 좌측 악하 부위에 악성 종양의 경동맥 침윤으로 시험적 수술후 6일만에 경동맥 파열로 사망하였다. 제 2례는 51세의 남자로서 하인두암($T_3$$N_2$Mx)으로 7200 rad의 수술전 방사선치료후 악성 종양의 재발로 후두전적출술과 일측의 근치적 경부곽청술후 누공을 형성하여 수술후 14일만에 경동맥 파열로 사망하였다.
