광학교육에 있어서 정규교육은 대학교에서 장기적인 계획을 수립하여 21세기 수요에 적합한 인재를 길러내는 역할을 수행한다면, 비정규교육은 주로 단기과정으로 개설된다. 국내의 경우는 인하대학교 광기술 교육센터와 전남대학교의 광기술인력교육센터에서 단기 교육과정을 개설하고 있으며, 최근 몇 년 사이에 개설강좌가 많이 늘어나서 광기술 교육수요에 적극적으로 대처하고 있다. 단기교육은 최신기술의 흐름을 파악하고 오프라인 교육과 온라인 교육이 병행되어야 한다. 그래서 지속적인 관심으로 광학교육을 발전시켜 나가야 한다.

Purpose: To compare of the results between anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction alone and combined with high tibial osteotomy for ACL ruptured knees with varus alignment. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 8 cases of ACL reconstruction combined with high tibial osteotomy (Group I) and 13 cases of ACL reconstruction alone (Group II) for varus angulated ACL ruptured knees (from March 2005 to February 2007). Mean age were 34.1 years (range: 20-53) in Group I, 34.9 years (range: 21-50) in Group II. Average follow up period were 22.6 months (range: 12-35) in Group I, 20 months (range: 13-33) in Group II. We analyzed clinical and radiological results. Results: There were no significant differences in clinical and radiologic results between two groups for IKDC scores, Lysholm knee scores, Lachman test, pivot shift test, KT-2000 arthrometer, $30^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ anterior drawer stress radiographs. Tegner activity scales and Cincinnati knee ligament rating scales were 4.9, 57.9 in Group I, and 5.6, 72.9 in Group II. Group I was statistically lower than Group II for Tegner activity scales and Cincinnati knee ligament rating scales (p<0.05). Conclusion: There were no significant differences in daily living between ACL reconstruction alone and combined with high tibial ostetomy for varus angulated ACL ruptured knees. However, ACL reconstruction combined with high tibial osteotomy could limit sport activity ability.

Background: Thirty children ranging from 3 to 15 years of age underwent cardiac valve replacement at Dongsan Medical Center from 1982 to 1997. Material and Method: There were 16 boys and 14 girls. The mean age was 12.1. The underlying pathological cause for valve replacement was congenital heart disease in 17 children and acquired heart disease in 13. The valve replaced was mitral in 15 children, aortic in 11, tricuspid in 3, and combined aortic and mitral in 1. Twenty-one mechanical and 10 tissue valves were placed: primary mechanical valve have been utilized since 1985. Eight of ten patients with tissue valves have had successful second valve replacements 4 to 11 years after the initial operation. Result: The operative mortality was 6.7%, but mortality was higher among patients less than 5 years of age and patients who had previous cardiac operations. Of the 28 operative survivors, 4 patients were lost to follow-up: the remaining patients were observed for a total of 2091 patient/months(mean 74.7 months, maximum 187 months). There was one late death from dilated cardiomyopathy after mitral valve replacement in 7 year-old patient with atrioventricular septal defect. After the operation, all patients with mechanical valves were placed on a strict anticoagulant regimen with Coumadin. The actuarial survival rate was 96% at the end of the follow-up. No instance of thromboembolism or major bleeding were observed in the survivors. Conclusion: These results indicate that valve replacement can be performed with low mortality in children, and with satisfactory long-term survival.

Background: Circulating levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) provide prognostic information for patients with heart failure. The aim of our study was to investigate whether preoperative and postoperative BNP levels could predict postoperative complications and outcomes in patients after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). Material and Method: Data was collected prospectively on 30 patients (M/F=19/11, age $60.0{\pm}9.6$ years) undergoing conventional CABG during a 1-year period beginning on January 1, 2005. Patients underwent off-pump CABG, and combined surgery was excluded. The BNP assay was performed preoperatively, immediate postoperatively at the intensive care unit (ICU), and 1, 3, 5, and 7days postoperatively. Result: Preoperative BNP levels significantly correlated with preoperative echocardiographic ejection fraction and an ICU stay of 5 days or more (r=-0.4, p=0.028; r=0.39, p=0.031, respectively). A preoperative BNP cut-off value above 263 pg/mL demonstrated high specificity (90.5%) for predicting postoperative complications using the receiver operating characteristics curves. Preoperative and postoperative (7 days) BNP levels were different depending on the abscence (mean BNP=$99{\pm}23\;pg/mL$ vs. $296{\pm}74\;pg/mL$, p<0.05) and presence (mean BNP=$212{\pm}29\;pg/mL$ vs. $408{\pm}23\;pg/mL$, p<0.01). Conclusion: Preoperative BNP levels >263 pg/mL predict postoperative complications in patients receiving CABG.

Background: Mitral valve repair (MVP) is the optimal procedure for mitral regurgitation (MR), however, failure and subsequent reoperations are the limitations. The current study assessed the procedure in relation to the primary valve related causes of recurrent MR. Material and Method: MR was treated in 493 patients undergoing MVP from January of 1994 to January of 2002. The causes of MR were degenerative $(n=252,\;51.5\%),$ rheumatic $(n=156,\; 31.6\%),$ and others $(n=85,\; 16.9\%).$ Surgery comprised 446 ring annuloplasties $(90.5\%),$ 227 new chordae formations $(46\%),$ 125 quadriangular resections $(25.3\%),$ 28 chordae transfers $(5.7\%),$ and 8 Alfieri's stitches $(1.6\%).$ The mean follow up was $29.04\pm22.81$ months. Result: There were 5 early $(1.01\%)$, and 5 late deaths $(1.01\%).$ The reoperation rate was $1.42\%$. There were 45 $(9.1\%)$ recurrent MR (grade III or IV). Of these, 24 were procedure related including incomplete repair (n=14), discordant new chordae length (n=8) and others (n=2). In 21 patients, the cause was valve related including rheumatic disease progression (n=10), recurrent chordae elongation or prolapse (n=5) and others (n=6). Severe MR was higher after incomplete repair (p < 0.001), and valve related failure strongly correlated with rheumatic progression (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Since completeness of operation is the prime risk factor that determine the repair durability, intra-operative assessment of the initial repair with trans-esophageal echocardiography is essential.

Purpose: We introduce a technique of all inside arthroscopic capsular imbrication and lateral release used to treat patellofemoral instability. Methods: With the arthroscope in the anteromedial portal for best viewing, the arthroscopic scissor is placed through superolateral portal for proximal to distal release. The release performed 5mm to 1cm from the edge of the patella. After completion of the procedure, with the arthroscope in anterolateral portal, we inserted 5mm cannula in superolateral portal and made working portal from superomedial portal. Medial reefing was performed with all inside technique by using curved needle of the spectrum suturing system and No. 1 monofilament PDS suture is passed through the superomedial portal percutaneously and retrieved through a superolateral portal. Conclusion: Several methods for arthroscopic patella realignment have been proposed, but they have consisted primarily of arthroscopically assisted techniques using a medial incision. We believe that our procedure is preferable to arthroscopically assisted methods commonly used, in that an incision is avoided and the vastus medialis obliqqus is not violated. Our technique is minimally invasive and is easy to control the tightness of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) under direct vision.

Os acromiale is the rare shoulder disease and its treatment is controversial. Despite conservative treatments for 6 months include medication, exercise, physical therapy and subacromial steroid injections, operative treatment for uncontrolled symptomatic Os acromiale is considered the treatment of choice. Operative treatment includes excision, arthroscopic or open reduction and internal fixation with a bone graft. Open reduction with tension band wiring and a bone graft is now the preferred treatment. We experienced 8 patients with symptomatic Os acromiale from March, 2001 to March, 2006. The average patient's age was 45 years and the man and women ratio were 2: 6. All 8 cases of symptomatic Os acromiale of the mesoacromion were treated with open reduction and internal fixation using tension-band wiring. The preoperative ASES($47.3\pm24.4$) and UCLA ($16.6\pm5.8$)scores were improved to $88.8\pm7.3$ and $31.5\pm1.9$, respectively, at the 2 year follow up. The overall UCLA score showed 1 excellent result and 7 good results. We think that symptomatic Os acromiale is a specific disease entity, and open reduction and internal fixation using tension-band wiring with K-wire is a good treatment modality.

Purpose: We reviewed the outcome of treatment of ossifying fibroma involving long bones. Materials and methods: Eight patients who enrolled at our hospital for ossifying fibroma from 1994 to 1999 were selected for this study. Mean age was 7.9 years old. Five were male and three female. Seven involved tibia and one fibula. All cases were diagnosed by biopsy. The initial treatment was conservative and the followings were operative indications; (1) repeated fracture, (2) suddenly growing mass, (3) severe bowing deformity, (4) pseudoarthrosis. We assessed the recurrence by x-ray follow-up. Results: As initial treatment, curettage was performed in 2 patients, observation in 2 subperiosteal resection in one and extraperiosteal resection in 3 patients. Two patients who were observed and 3 patients who received extraperiosteal resection did not suffer recurrence. Two patients who received curettage and one patient who received subperiosteal resection had recurrence. The second treatment was performed in 3 patients. The one case of curettage received extraperiosteal resection. The other was in observation. The case of subperiosteal resection was in observation, too. There were no recurrence and aggravation at follow-up. Conclusion: Ossiying fibroma should to be treated by conservative method. If operation is indicated, extraperiosteal resection could reduce the recurrence.
