Three small-breed dogs with grade IV medial patellar luxation were presented. In all cases, patellar luxation could not be reduced by conventional surgical techniques. Femoral shortening osteotomy was performed in all dogs to correct patellar luxation. In all the dogs, the clinical condition was remarkably improved, and following surgical procedures, no complication or recurrence was presented. Femoral shortening osteotomy is an effective treatment in small-breed dogs with medial patellar luxation associated with severe skeletal deformity.

Tooth movement facilitated by corticotomy and distraction osteogenesis, a new paradigm in orthodontics, was discussed. Molar uprighting was thought to be either difficult or nearly impossible. In this study, a section of cortical bone, which may act as resistance to tooth movement in alveolar bone, was removed. Active bone deposition was also made possible in the tension side This forms the main concept of tooth movement facilitated by corticotomy and distraction osteogenesis. Molars in two cases were uprighted at such a speedy rate as we could not imagine in conventional tooth movement. which lead to reduction of the total treatment period. And molar uprighting was possible without side effects. for example, supraversion oif the tooth or anterior anchorage loss. These were the superior aspects to conventional orthodontics.

배경: 최근 들어 최소 절개술의 도입의 장점으로 입원간의 단축이 거론되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최소 흉골 절개술(mini-sternotomy)하에 시행된 개심술 환자에 대하여 전향적으로 수술 후 문제가 없는 환아에 대하여 5일 이내에 퇴원을 시도하고 그 안전성, 경제성 등을 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1998년 11월부터 1999년 7월까지 최소 흉골 절개술하에 개심술을 시행한 환자 중 5일 이내에 퇴원한 환자 29명과 1997년 1월부터 5월까지 전통적인 흉골 절개술로 개심술을 시행한 29명의 환아들을 각각 실험군(제1군)과 대조군(제2군)으로 하였다. 환자는 동일한 수술자로부터 수술을 받았고 질병군은 유사하였다. 결과: 제1군과 제2군의 수술 후 재원일수, 총 병원비, 합병증, 수술 후 소견 등에 차이가 있는지 비교하였다. 평균 수술 후 재원일수는 4.5$\pm$0.6일 및 9.1$\pm$2.4일이었다(p<0.05). 두 환자군에서 수술 후 합병증으로 인한 재입원은 없었고 수술 후 시행한 심초음파에서도 심장수술과 관련된 병변은 관찰되지 않았다. 제1군의 총 입원비의 평균은 7,333,184$\pm$113원이었고, 환자부담액은 3,464,383$\pm$80원이었다. 반면 제2군에서의 총 입원비의 평균은 7,486,136$\pm$140원, 환자부담액은 3,660,194$\pm$92원이었다(p>0.05). 결론: 본 연구를 통해 단기 퇴원 지침하에 환자를 치료함으로써 수술 후 재원일수를 단축시키는 시도가 합병증이나 잔존 병변을 남기지 않고 안정적으로 시행될 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였다. 하지만 경제적 이점은 통계적인 유의성을 찾을 수 없었다. 향후 환자군의 크기와 질병군의 난이도 등을 조절한 비교 평가가 필요하다고 생각된다.

From February 1996 to May 1997, 18 patients underwent mitral valve repair for mitral regurgitation. There were 9 male and 9 female patients aged from 19 to 68 years(mean, 53). Thirteen patients were in New York Heart Association(NYHA) class III and IV. The cause of mitral regurgitation was degenerative in 12 patients, rheumatic in 5 patients and infective in 1 patient. Fifteen patients were in Carpentier's functional classification II, 2 patients in Carpentier's class III and 1 patient in Carpentier's class I. Surgical procedures included prosthetic ring annuloplasty(16 cases), rectangular resection of posterior leaflet(15 cases), chordal shortening(5 cases), triangular resection of anterior leaflet(2 cases), commissurotomy(2 cases), partial transposition of posterior leaflet(1 case). These procedures were combined in most patients. There was no operative death. These patients have been followed from 1 to 15 months, mean of 6.7 months. There was one late death resulted from low cardiac output following mitral valve replacement. The function of the repaired valve in other 17 patients has remained satisfactory during the observed interval. We consider that mitral valve repair is highly satisfactory in patients with mitral regurgitation.

Lumbar Sympathectomy is a surgery for plantar hyperhidrosis, vascular and other reflex sympathetic diseases and has a various indications and physiologic effects. However it is not performed actively compared to thoracic sympathectomy because of its invasiveness. Therefore, we tried to perform lumbar sympathectomy using mediastinoscopy with small incision and introduce this new surgical technique. Material and Method: From July 2003 to December 2004, 18 patients undewent lumbar sympathectomy with mediastinoscopy at Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital. There were 12 males and 6 females whose mean age was 24.3$\pm$8.2 years ranging from 18 to 67 30 cases of lumbar sympathectomy was performed with mediastinoscopy of which 24 cases were for plantar hyperhidrosis and 6 cases for other diseases. Result: Mean operation time was 37.2$\pm$12.5 minutes and mean post operation hospital stay was 3.1$\pm$2.2 days. There was one post sympathetic neuralgia and one peritoneal opening. Conclusion: Lumbar sympathectomy using mediastinoscopy is a simple and effective technique and has the advantage of cosmetics, post operative pain and hospital stay. However, further studies with large number of cases should be carried out for better outcome.

이 연구에서는 의료서비스 품질 향상을 위하여 제안된 뇌 전위적 영상안내에 의한 개두술 방법과 옥틸 시안화 아크렬산염 (2-octylcyanoacrylate: 2-0CA)을 드레싱 재료로 사용한 조사군과, 전통적 개두술 방법과 봉합사 및 아이오다인을 사용했던 대조군과 비교를 실시하여 의료품질 향상 효과를 분석하였다. 연구방법으로는 특정 의료기관에서 26 례 조사군과, 38례 대조군을 대상으로, 임상적 특성, 감염균, 두피접착의 열개(裂開)성 및 기타 위험 인자를 조사하였다. 연구결과 새롭게 제안된 의료용 재료인 2옥틸시안화 아크릴산염은 피부조직 속으로 외부 액체가 유입되는 것을 억제하거나 제한하였으며, 외피 접착기능으로 창상보호 특히, 평균감염률과 감염빈도에 있어서 상대적으로 대조군보다 우수하였다. 한편 뇌 전위적 영상 안내에 의한 개두술 방법으로 수술시간의 단축과 수술 복잡성의 경감 및 위험성이 감소되었으며, 상처 부위 흔적이 적게 남는 등 미용적인 측면에서도 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

Freiberg disease is a relatively rare osteochondrosis of metatarsal head, which usually involves the 2nd metatarsal of adolescent females. Various open surgical treatments have been recommended; arthrotomy and removal of loose body, dorsiflexion osteotomy and resection of the metatarsal head. Arthroscopic treatment for Freiberg disease has a merit of shortening the recovery period and reducing the postoperative stiffness. We report a case of early stage Freiberg disease treated with metatarsophalangeal arthroscopic excision of loose body and debridement of the 2nd metatarsophalangeal joint.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of uterus shortening on the duration required for estrus, the number of ovulation and the level of serum progesterone and prostaglandin $F_{2}{\alpha} (PGF_{2}{\alpha} $). The duration required for estrus after the surgical shortening of uterine horns and the interval between the following estrus was not affected by the surgical treatment but affected by luteal and follicular phase. The number of ovulations were increased by induction of superovulation to gilts with shortened uterine horns compared to the control. Serum progesterone concentration during the luteal phase was higher than that during the follicular phase with no difference between the control and me horns than that of the control. Findings of this study indicate that luteal formation and regressions and estrus cycle were normal when the unconnected parts of uterine horns were left in abdominal cavity. Therefore surgical shortening of uterine horns of sows helps embryo collections by non-surgical methods.

Ankyloglossia is the presence of a lingual frenulum, which can range from a mucous membrane band to a short and thick band and, in extreme cases, to fusion of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. The effects of such a condition, in addition to speech defects and occasionally restriction of sucking, including dental deformities, such as open bite, or even prognathism. Treatment is surgical. The preferred treatment is horizontal sectioning of the frenulum down to the lingual septum and then suturing of the mucosa. The main problem after the healing of surgical wound is adhesion and contracture. Adhesion restrict the movement of tongue like tongue-tie. Z-plasty at the site of incision can solve this problem by changing the direction of scar. We have experienced a patient with ankyloglossia with speech defect, who underwent frenuloomy by Z-plasty. So we present a surgical treatment of Ankyloglossia using Z-plasty and discuss the treatment with a review of literature.

지중송전선로 건설공사에 154kV 장조장 케이블 드럼개발 및 트레일러 일체형 Under Roller 방식을 이용한 포설장비를 개발하여 현장에 적용함으로써 신기술 신개발 공법 적용으로 인한 국제경쟁력 향상 뿐만 아니라 접속경간의 장조장 설계로 케이블 접속개소 감소로 인한 공사비절감과 공사기간 단축에 크게 기여하였다. 이와 동시에 공사를 위한 도로점용 단축으로 민원발생을 크게 감소시켰다. 현행 도로법 규제로 케이블의 운반중량이 제한되었던 케이블 표준 경간을 450m에서 최대 700m까지 가능하여 접속개소의 유연성이 확보되었을 뿐만 아니라 토목구조물(전력구,관로등)공사의 다양한 설계방법을 적용할 수 있게 되었다.
