Our Goal of modified segmental osteotomy on maxilla accompanied by mandibular anterior subapical osteotomy was to get the best results from patients of bi-alveolar or bi-maxillary protrusion. In this study, cephalometric and photo (en face, profile) analysis have been compared to define the soft tissue change after surgery. Lip protrusion was efficiently reduced and nasolabial angle was much obtused. Although nose was a little widened, it was quite acceptable. Blood circulation on osteotomized segment was well maintained. This relatively simple methods could be successfully applied to many patients.

This paper describes the case of a 50-year-old female with a Class II malocclusion who presented with severe bimaxillary protrusion and generalized alveolar bone loss due to adult periodontitis. The treatment plan consisted of extracting both upper and lower first premolars and periodontal treatment. Anterior segmental osteotomy(ASO) of the mandible and upper anterior segment retraction using compression osteogenesis after peri-segmental corticotomy(Speedy orthodontics) was performed. Correct overbite and overjet, facial balance, and improvement of lip protrusion were obtained. However, a slight root resorption tendency was observed on the lower anterior dentition. The active treatment period was 9 months and the results were stable for 27 months after debonding. This new type of treatment mechanics can be an effective alternative to orthognathic surgery.

앞 턱 부위가 짧고 후방으로 위치해 있을 때 턱의 높이를 증가시키고 전방으로 돌출시키는 축조 이부성형술의 방법으로는, 매식체 삽입술, 골 절단술, 골 절제술 또는 이들을 동시에 시행하는 혼합술등이 행해져 왔다. 그러나 매식체 삽입술에서는 감염 또는 매식체의 유동성 등의 합병증의 발병이 빈발하고 매식체의 밑 부위에 골이 흡수된다든지 연조직의 변화를 예측하기 어렵다든지 하는 복잡한 문제점들이 종종 보고되고 있다. 따라서 매식체를 이용하지 않는 골 절단술이나 골 절제술만을 이용한 다양한 방법의 이부성형술이 많이 시행되고 있다. 하악골이 전후방 관계로 발육부전인 환자에게 양측 하악지 시상분할술을 시행하여 전방 이동시킨 후 앞 턱의 위치를 좀더 개선하기 위하여 $Michel{\'{e}}t$ 테크닉의 변형법을 이용한 이부성형술을 추가로 시행하였다. 이 방법의 이부성형술은 턱의 수직적, 수평적 길이를 증가시키기 위하여 하악결합면 부위에 장부와 장붓구멍 모양을 한 골 절단술을 시행하고 광범위한 연조직경을 보존하여 골편으로의 혈류 차단을 최소화하였으며 나사를 이용한 견고한 고정을 용이하게 하였다. 이 술식은 턱을 수직적으로 증가시킬 때 두 골편 사이의 공간에 골 이식을 시행할 필요가 없으며, 금속판을 이용하지 않아도 정확한 위치에 골편을 고정하기가 용이하고, 또한 고정용 나사가 향후 골형성 부위에 위치하게 된다는 장점을 경험하게 되어 이에 한 증례를 보고하는 바이다.

당뇨병성 족부병변은 당뇨병성 신경증, 허혈증, 그리고 골관절병 등에 의해서 감염, 궤양 등 하지의 조직이 파괴된 상태로 당뇨병환자의 하지절단, 사망률 등을 높이는 중요한 원인이다. 전세계적으로 하지절단의 가장 많은 원인이 당뇨병성 족부병변이며, 당뇨병환자는 정상인에 비해 하지절단의 위험이 약 15배 가량 높다. 또한 5$\sim$15% 정도의 당뇨병환자가 일생 동안 하지절단에 직면하게 된다고 하고, 한쪽 다리를 절단하면 다른 한쪽도 절단할 확률이 1$\sim$3년 이내에 40%, 3$\sim$5년 사이에 58% 정도이며, 일단 하지절단 후에는 3년 생존률이 50%에 이른다는 보고도 있다.

The delivery of optimal orthodontic treatment is greatly influenced by clinician's ability to predict and control tooth movement by applying well-known force system to dentition. It is very important to determine the location of the centers of resistance of a tooth or teeth in order to have better understanding the nature of displacement characteristics under various force levels. In this study, three dimensional finite element analysis was used to measure the initial displacement of the consolidated teeth under loading. The purpose of this study was to define the location of the centers of resistance at the upper six anterior segment. To observe the changes of six anterior segment, 200gm, 250gm, 300gm, and 350gm forces at right and left hand side each were imposed toward lingual direction. For this study, two cases, six anterior teeth and six anterior teeth after corticotomy, were reviewed. In addition, it was reviewed the effects of changes on the location of the center of resistance in both cases based on different degree of forces aforementioned. The results were that : 1. The instantaneous center of resistance for the six anterior teeth was vertically located between level 4 and level 5, which is, at 6.76mm, $44.32\%$ apical to the cementoenamel junction level. 2. The instantaneous center of resistance for the six anterior teeth after corticotomy was located vertically between level 4 and level 5, that is, at 7.09mm $46.38\%$ apical to the cementoenamel junction level. 3. Changes of force showed little effect on the location of the center of resistance in each case. 4. It was observed that the location of the instantaneous center of resistance for the six anterior teeth after corticotomy was changed more than the six anterior teeth without corticotomy to the apical part, and the displacement of the consolidated anterior teeth moved further in case of the consolidated teeth after corticotomy.

Purpose: The current study was performed to analyze the oncological and functional results, and the patient, the limb and the prosthesis survival of osteosarcoma around the knee in children according to the treatment options. Materials and Methods: From 1982 to 2002, 63 patients with osteosarcoma around the knee underwent surgical treatments before 16 years of age. Surgical treatment options were amputation, endoprosthetic replacement, and implantation of low heat-treated autogenous bone graft after wide resection of tumor. The mean age of patients was 11.5 years (4.4~16), and the mean follow-up period was 6.1 years (2.1~16.8). All patients had neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy. All endoprosthses were extendible types. Anatomical locations of osteosarcoma were distal femur in 40 patients, and proximal tibia in 23 patients. As regard to Enneking stage, 4 patients had stage $II_A$, 50 patients had stage $II_B$, and 9 patients had stage III tumors. Results: The 5 year survival rate of stage $II_B$ patients was 72.7% in amputation, 83.7% in endoprosthesis, and 100% in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. The 5 year survival rate of salvaged limb was 84.4% in endoprosthesis, and 80% in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. The survival rate of prosthesis was 92.7% at 5 years, 67.4% at 10 years in endoprosthesis, and 75% at 5 years in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. Mean functional outcome scores were 8.7 points in amputation, 20.6 points in endoprosthesis, and 16 points in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. Distant metastasis occurred 15.8% in amputation, 27% in endoprosthesis and local recurrence occurred 8.1% in endoprosthesis, 14.3% in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. Major complications happened 26.3% in amputation, 35.1% in endoprosthesis, and 28.6% in low heat-treated autogenous bone graft. Conclusion: Limb salvage procedure had functionally better results than amputation in children with osteosarcoma around the knee. Reconstruction with endoprosthesis after resection of tumor had good results in children as adults. In certain circumstances as too small bone for endoprosthesis or minimal bony destruction or too skeletally immature patient, low heat-treated autogenous bone graft may be a good treatment option. Low heat-treated autogenous bone graft may be considered as not only a substitute for endoprosthesis but also a temporary method before endoprosthesis.

Osteoclast action is necessary for alveolar bone remodeling in orthodontic tooth movement. The nervous system has also been reported to be associated with bone remodeling. This study was aimed to investigate the changes of osteoclasts in the periodontal ligament (PDL) space after surgical resection of the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN). Experimental rats were divided into young and adult groups. A surgical resection procedure of the IAN was carried out in the left side of the mandible and a sham operation in the right side of the mandible. The number of osteoclasts on the bundle bone surface and the resorption activity of the osteoclasts were histomorphometrically measured. The changes in distribution of substance P (SP) immunoreactive (IR) nerve fiber were evaluated in the PDL and pulp. SP-IR nerve fiber was depleted in both the PDL and pulp of the IAN resection side in both groups, which confirmed the resection of IAN to be successfully conducted. The number of osteoclasts in the IAN resection side was significantly reduced in both the young and adult groups (p<0.01 and p<0.05), whereas the resorption activity of osteoclasts did not show any significant difference between the IAN resection side and the sham operation side in both groups (p>0.05 and p<0.05). The adult group showed that the number of osteoclasts reduced significantly (p<0.01) and the resorption activity didn't change in comparison with the young group (p>0.05). These results suggest that surgical resection of the IAN and aging reduce the population of the recruited osteoclasts within the PDL, but don't affect on the osteoclastic resorption activity.
