The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of intrusion in primary dentition and to evaluate factors influencing complications of primary and permanent dentition during long-term follow-up period. 61 patients (84 teeth) were selected in this study. Medical records of 61 patients were reviewed and age, gender, cause of injury, site of injury, severity of traumatic injury, other injuries associated with trauma, treatment method, and complications of primary and permanent dentition were examined. Collected data were statistically evaluated using Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. Intrusion in primary anterior teeth was predominant in boys over girls and fall was the most common cause of trauma. It was most common at home and occurred most in the primary maxillary central incisors. Severity had an effect on the incidence of sequelae in permanent successors (p = 0.014). The incidence of complications was significantly lower in patients with soft tissue injuries than in patients with other periodontal injuries (p = 0.000).

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence, location, type and treatment of meniscal injury associated with acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears Material and Methods: From Mar. 1997 to Feb. 2002, we reviewed 73 cases of acute ACL tear. There were 66 males and 7 females. The average age at the time of surgery was 33 year old (range, 16-62 years). The common causes of meniscal injury were sports injuries (45 cases) and traffic accidents (19 cases). In 45 sports injuries, thirty four cases were soccer injuries. All patients had undergone arthroscopic evaluation. We analyzed incidence, type, location, and treatment of meniscal injuries, especially those of soccer injuries. Results : Foully eight (57 sites) out of 73 had meniscal tears : Of these injuries, tears of lateral meniscus (26 cases, $54.2\%$) were more common than medial meniscus. Posterior horn of the meniscus was the most common location (52 cases, $91.2\%$) and radial tears were the most common type (15 cases, $26.3\%$). Thirty eight cases $(66.7\%)$ were treated by partial menisectomy. In soccer injuries, twenty eight (33 sites) out of 34 had meniscal tears. and tears of lateral meniscus (17 cases, $60.7\%$) were more common. Posterior horn of the meniscus was the most common location (30 cases, $90.9\%$) and radial tears were the most common type (9 cases, $27.3\%$). Twenty two cases $(66.7\%)$ were treated by partial menisectomy. Conclusions : Lateral meniscal tears in the setting of an acute ACL insufficiency are more common than medial meniscal tears. The findings in the this study would be helpful in clinical diagnosis and subsequent treatment decisions in patients with an acute ACL tears.

Purpose: To compare the clinical outcomes after meniscus allograft transplantation between lateral and medial or isolated and combined procedure groups. Materials and Methods: Of the patients who had undergone arthroscopic meniscal allograft transplantation between Dec. 1997 and Jun. 2007, 52 patients were available for retrospective evaluation. Patients were grouped into lateral(33 cases) and medial(19 cases) transplant groups as well as those with isolated(18 cases) and combined(34 cases) procedure. The average age was 34.2 years and the mean follow-up period was 42.2 months. Postoperative range of motion (ROM), visual analog scale (VAS), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective score, Lysholm score, Tegner score, patient's subjective satisfaction, $2^{nd}$ look arthroscopy and MRI were evaluated retrospectively. Results: Mean postoperative ROM was $130.3^{\circ}$. The VAS showed an improvement from 5.96 to 3.05 at the last follow up. IKDC subjective score and Lysholm score also showed an improvement from 46.5 to 64.5 and from 61.9s to 79.58 respectively. Tegner score was improved from 2.9 to 3.6. Overall, 61.5% of patients reported they were completely or mostly satisfied with procedure. There were no significant differences noted between lateral and medial groups as well as isolated and combined groups. In 2nd look arthroscopy, 10 of 18 cases showed good pheripheal healing and there were 6 cases of partial and 2 of complex tear. We observed graft subluxation or extrusion in 12 of 16 cases who were evaluated with follow-up MRI. Conclusion: Meniscus allograft transplantation alone or in combination with other procedure showed an improvement in knee pain and clinical score. But there were no significant difference between lateral and medial groups or isolated and combined procedure groups.

SLAP(Superior labrum anterior to posterior) lesion is found in superior labrum injury alone and also combined with extension of the Bankart lesion(anteroinferior labral tear) in recurrent shoulder dislocation patients and rarely accompanied by the posterior Bankart lesion. There have been reports about SLAP lesions associated with various lesions, however, posterior type II SLAP lesion associated with posterior Bankart lesion has been rarely reported. In such a case, there are important technical tips in inserting anchors and suturing during arthroscopic repair. We experienced a rare case of posterior type II SLAP lesion associated with posterior Bankart lesion, occurred not after repetitive throwing(common mechanism) but after trauma in slipping down with the arm stretched during riding a bicycle. The satisfactory result was obtained after arthroscopic repair in this case.

Posterolateral instability of the knee occurs more commonly in association with an injury to anterior and posterior cruciate ligament and combined injuries are severe injuries that result in significant functional instability and articular cartilage degeneration. Reconstruction of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament without an appropriate treatment of posterolateral corner injury result in failure of the reconstructed cruciate ligaments. Meticulous physical examinations, imaging studies, lower limb alignment and gait pattern should be evaluated. Acute grade III isolated or combined injury of the posterolateral corner is best treated within three weeks by direct repair, or augumentation, or reconstruction. The appropriate surgical method or combined methods are selected among the several methods of posterior and posterolateal reconstruction, and all injuried posterolateral and cruciate ligament structures are anatomically reconstructed simultaneously or by stages. If a varus alignment and varus thrust is disclosed in chronic posterolateral instability of knee, soft tissue reconstructions laterally are highly unlikely to be able to correct tile problem. It is appropriate that valgus osteotomy should be done before soft tissue reconstruction and reevaluate the posterolateral instability about 6 months later.

The role of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in hemodynamically unstable pancreatic trauma is unclear. We report here a case of traumatic pancreatic bleeding controlled with REBOA and angioembolization of the splenic artery before surgery. A 65-year old man experienced blunt trauma upon falling from a height of 20 m. Computed tomography (CT) revealed distal pancreatic trauma (grade III) and contrast extravasation around the splenic artery. Shortly after CT, his systolic blood pressure was 60 mmHg and REBOA was performed for hemodynamic stability. His systolic pressure increased to 130 mmHg after balloon inflation and angioembolization of the splenic artery was performed. On angiography, no further arterial bleeding was identified and the balloon was removed. Subsequently, the patient underwent emergent laparotomy with distal pancreatectomy. There was no active bleeding during surgery and distal main pancreatic duct injury was identified. After surgery, the patient recovered without complication. In this case, hemodynamically unstable hemorrhagic pancreatic trauma was treated effectively and safely with distal pancreatectomy after REBOA with angioembolization.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical outcome of meniscal repairs according to tern location and combined injury. Materials and Methods : From 1994, 73 meniscal repairs were underwent by arthroscopy and followed more than 1 year. The locations of torn meniscus were 29 red-red Bone, 36 red-white zone, 8 white-white zone. Twenty-six patients also had combined lesion including ACL injury 17 cases and treated simultaneously. Clinical result was evaluated by OAK system. Result : Healing rates(above good) were $94\%$ in isolated injury and $88\%$ in combined injury, especially $94\%$ in ACL injury. The result according to tern location were $90\%$ in red-red zone, $91\%$ in red-white zone, all in white-white zone. Conclusion : Meniscus tear with ACL injury should be repaired by arthroscopy, simultaneously. The meniscal tear of white-white zone could be healed by arthroscopic meniscal suture.

Displaced tibial spine fractures need the anatomical reduction of the displaced bone fragment to achieve normal range of motion and anterior stability of the knee joint. The purpose of this paper is to describe details of arthroscopic technique using suture hook and pull-out PDS and to evaluate the clinical results. We report 7 cases who underwent arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation using suture hook and pull-out PDS. All cases had fresh fractures generated within 3 weeks. The follow up period was at average 16.6 months. The fracture union was achieved at average 7.4 weeks. Knee exercise was started 2 weeks after the operation. One of the patients, who had combined injury of posterior cruciate ligament and lateral meniscus, showed limitation of knee movement. But he was underwent the arthroscopic fibrolysis at one year later, he returned to normal range of motion. Arthroscopic treatment of displaced tibial spine fracture using suture hook and pull-out PDS showed good results including rigid fixation and early mobilization. Therefore it is thought to be one of the effective operative techniques in treatment of the tibial spine fractures.
