후두격막은 1822년 Fleichman이 호흡곤란과 발성장애를 야기한 례를 최초로 보고하였으며 선천성으로나 후천성으로 발생할 수 있다. 선천성후두격막은 태생 10주경의 후두발생장애로 발생한다고 알려져 있으며 성문부위에서 가장 많이 발견되며 후천성후두격막은 감염, 외상, 수술 및 방사선조사 후 발생한다. 저자들은 최근 1례의 선천성후두격막과 4례의 후천성후두격막환자를 치험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD) has been increased recently in Korea. Most patients who have GERD are well treated by medication. But patients who have suboptimal disease control under medical therapy are needed further treatment. Nowadays minimally invasive surgery using laparoscopy and thoracoscopy has become popular in the operation of GERD although antireflux surgery is vary. Antireflux surgery is a well-documented, effective therapeutic alternative to control GERD.

This study aimed to examine the effect of management by objectives(MBO) and job commitment on the nursing performance of operating room(OR) nurses. The study was conducted on 226 OR nurses from tertiary healthcare institutions in Seoul. Multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of OR nurses on nursing performance. In results, the factors that affect the nursing performance of OR nurses included the concreteness of goals, job commitment, and measurability of objectives in that order, and these variables explained 25.9% of the nursing performance. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of the nursing work, it is necessary to make efforts to create a work environment where nursing can be carried out due to the nature of the nursing operation. In addition, it is essential to develop a strategy to further the influence of the concreteness and measurability of goals among other attributes, thereby enhancing the job performance of OR nurses.

Background : Identification of the histologic cell type of lung cancer is important because it is related to the treatment modality and prognosis. Currently, many diagnostic methods are used to determine the cell type. We have studied to evaluate the histologic accuracy of each diagnostic methods in lung cancer. Method : 168 cases were analysed retrospectively, who underwent curative thoracotomy for lung cancer in Seoul National University Hospital from January, 1994 to February, 1997. Sputum cytology, percutaneous needle aspiration(PCNA), percutaneous needle biopsy(PCNB), bronchial washing cytology and flexible bronchoscopic biopsy were evaluated respectively. The k coefficient was applied to evaluate the degree of concordance between the histologic diagnosis obtained by each methods and the one derived from thoracotomy. Results : The k value in sputum cytology was 0.86. In the 34 cases with squamous cell carcinoma(SQ), 32 cases were finally diagnosed as having such by thoracotomy. 7 of the 8 cases with adenocarcinoma(AD) turned out to have the same. The k value in PCNA was 0.51. In the 31 cases with SQ, only 14 cases were finally diagnosed as having such. All of the 3 cases with small cell carcinoma(SC) turned out to have the same. The k value in PCNB was 0.77. The diagnosis was correct in 13 of the 16 patients with SQ and in 30 of the 32 cases with AD. The k value in bronchial washing cytology was 1.0. In all of the 29 cases with SQ and all of the 7 cases with AD, the diagnosis was correct. The k value in flexible bronchoscopic biopsy was 0.77. The diagnosis was correct in 51 of the 52 cases with SQ and in 1 of the 2 cases with SC. Conclusion : The concordance rate with the final histologic diagnosis in sputum cytology, PCNB, bronchial washing cytology and flexible bronchoscopic biopsy were excellent ($k{\geq}0.75$), while that in PCNA was fair (k=0.53). Because PCNA showed lower concordance rate than other diagnostic methods, PCNA is recommended to perform with PCNB.

Coin is the most common foreign body in foreign bodies of food passage in ENT field. Most of the coin canbe removed with ease by means of endos copy but in rare cases operative measures are necessary. The authors have recently experienced a case of foreign body in mediastinum near bifurcation of trachea, between trachea and esophagus which was removed by lateral neck exploration under general anesthesia, and this is the report of this case along with literature survey.

Congenital bronchoesophageal fistula is rare and usually has an incidious clinical course. We experienced a case of congenital bronchoesophageal fistula in adult. A 53 years old male patient visited our hospital for respiratory arrest following sudden dyspnea. He had experienced chronic coughing after swallowing and recurrent pneumonia since childhood. we could confirm the bronchoesophageal fistula preoperatively by barium swallow examination and performed right pneumonectomy and repair of the fistula. The postoperative course was uneventful.

We have recently removed three interesting foreign bodies uneventfully. Case 1: In 20 years old boy, the bullet which penetrated his trachea and esophagus through, lodged on second thoracic vertebra. Case 2: In 1 5/12 year old boy, 52 cm metallic neck lace was hung on the bifurcation of bronchus. Case 3: In 17 years old boy, the pin was stuck in the wall of his esophagus.

An accessory cardiac bronchus (ACB) is a rare congenital anomaly of the trachobronchial tree. It rarely presents with symptoms, and is usually diagnosed incidentally by chest CT, bronchoscopy, or during surgery. We experienced a case of accessory cardiac bronchus found incidentally in the bronchus intermedius with lung cancer in the right lower lobe, and surgically removed.

Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery has gained a broad acceptance for various thoracic lesions because it is the minimally invasive surgery with little tissue trauma, less pain, improved cosmetic results and short recovery time. However, there are some limitations for this method, such as restricted visual sensory information to a two-dimensional image and limited maneuverability of the tips of the instruments. To overcome these limitations, advanced technology has been introduced and the da $Vinci^{TM}$ Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc, Mountain View, CA, USA) became available in 2001. In Korea, the da $Vinci^{TM}$ Surgical System was introduced in Severance hospital (Yonsei University College of Medicine) in May 2005, and approved by KFDA in July 2005. Herein, we report the first experience of robot-assisted thoracic surgery with the da $Vinci^{TM}$ Surgical System in extirpation of a large teratoma in anterior mediastinum.
