  • Purpose : We used transparent flexible tube which had provided the good visual field of median nerve when it was used in endoscopic release of transverse carpal ligament and evaluated the safety of that technique. Materials and Methods : We evaluated the 12 patients(20cases) who had been diagnosed as carpal tunnel syndrome and performed by endoscopic carpal tunnel release between Mar. 1997 and Mar. 2000. We used two portal technique and released the transverse carpal ligament with direct supervision of median nerve. Results : 14 cases$(70\%)$ were revealed excellent or good results and 6 cases$(30\%)$ were fair. No serious complications were shown such as nerve injury. Conclusion : We could avoid the complications of endoscopic carpal tunnel release using the transparent flexible tube which had provided tire good circumferential vision around the median nerve and it is unnecessary to maintain the wrist Joint hyperextension state during operation. Also that tube was easily obtainable in hospital so we need not to purchase the expensive operation apparatus.

  • A 43-yr-old patient visited our department with intermittent chest pain he had suffered with for the past 2 months. Chest CT showed an egg shaped mass in the left chest wall. Local resection was performed for distinguishing the mass from a neurogenic tumor. The diagnosis was periosteal Ewing sarcoma of the rib. Since there was no evidence of metastasis based on the PET-CT, a 2nd operation was done with wide resection and thoracoplasty. The patient was then treated with combined chemotherapy. There has been no local recurrence for the fast 1 year. The patient's age and tumor origin were distinct from the usual characteristics of Ewing's sarcoma. Periosteal Ewing's sarcoma of the rib has rarely been reported. We report here on a case of periosteal Ewing's sarcoma of the rib along with a review of the relevant medical literature.

  • Successful treatment of multi-loculated pleural effusion or thoracic empyema requires effective drainage and definitive diagnosis of causative organism. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in the management of thoracic empyema or multi-loculated pleural effusion after chest tube drainage treatment had failed. Material and Method: Between April 2000 and July 2002, 20 patients with thoracic empyema or multi-loculated pleural effusion that failed to chest tube drainage or other procedures who underwent an operation. All patients were assessed by chest-computed tomogram and underwent video assisted thoracoscopic drainage, debridement, biopsy and irrigation of pleural cavity. Result: In 18 cases (90%), underwent successful video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. In 2 cases, decortications by mini-thoracotomy were necessary. The ratio of sex was 4 : 1 (16 male: 4 female), mean age was 48.9 years old (range, 17∼72 years), mean duration of postoperative chest tube placement was 8.2 days (range, 4∼22 days), mean postoperative hospital stay was 15.2 days (range, 7∼33 days). Causative disease was tuberculosis, pneumonia, trauma and metastatic breast cancer, There were no major postoperative complications. Symptoms improved in all patients and were discharged with OPD follow up. Conclusion: In an early organizing phase of empyema or multi loculated pleural effusion, video-assisted thoracoscopic drainage and debridement are safe and suitable treatment.

  • Backgound: Cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation have been used to treat the atrial fibrillation. Some reports insisted that the microwave ablation Is a better method for a deep and extensive lesion. Material and Method: From December 2001 to July 2002, we peformed 8 microwave ablations in patients who needed mitral valve surgery (7 MVR, 1 MVR+AVR). There were 3 men and 5 women, and their mean age was 43.4$\pm$8.3 years and mean follow up period was 5.6$\pm$2.4 months respectively. The microwave was applied on endocardium or epicardium by Lynx (Afx, inc.) using a power of 45 watts for 25 seconds. We studied the left atrial dimension, the left atrial function and the sinus conversion with echocardiography and electro-cardiography at three times; 1) before the operation, 2) immediately after the operation, and 3) 6 months after the operation. Result: There was no complication and no mortality. The mean aortic clamping time was 104.6$\pm$25.0 minutes, and the mean total bypass time was 130.5$\pm$28.7 minutes. The rate of sinus conversion was 75%, A wave across the mitral valve was a mean of 77.0$\pm$24.8 cm/sec, and the AVE was a mean of 0.46$\pm$0.17 at 5.6 months postoperatively Conclusion: There was no difference in the early result of microwave ablation compared to other methods. The microwave ablation was an acceptable method due to its convenient application especially in beating heart.

  • Background: Supraglottis and glottis have a different embryologic origin. Supraglottic cancer is characterized by high incidence of cervical lymph node metastasis at initial diagnosis, and favored surgical management of the early supraglottic cancer was partial supraglottic laryngectomy, however the procedure resulted in frequent incidences of postsurgical aspiration and voice disabilities. Objectives: We retrospectively analyzed the problems and the advantages of the endoscopic laser assisted supraglottic partial laryngectomy as a part of surgical management for early supraglottic cancer. Materials and Methods: During the past nine years 25 cases of supraglottic cancer(Tl 10 cases, T2 15 cases) were treated by tracheotomy and laser assisted supraglottic partial laryngectomy(KTP532, 15 Watt, continuous type) and in 10 cases with cervical lymph node metastasis, they were additionally managed by neck dissection one week later, and all cases received postoperative irradiation therapy. Results: At present, 19 cases are alive with no evidence of disease. During the follow up period total of six cases(primary failure: three cases, nodal failure: three cases) were recurred. In relation to tumor staging, One of the 10 Tl cases and two of the 15 T2 cases recurred showing 88% locoregional recurrence rate for early supraglottic cancer. Postoperative com-plication included bleeding in three cases who were controlled by electrocautery under general anesthsia, one case of longstanding aspiration and two cases of laryngeal stenosis as a delayed complication. Conclusion: High control rate suggests that the endoscopic laser assisted supraglottic partial laryngectomy may be a good initial management method for early supraglottic cancer, however it is difficult to determine the resection margin, therefore, accurate tumor staging must be done prior to surgery. In order to prepare for postoperative bleeding, edema and aspiration, the tracheotomy must be performed prior to surgery.

  • Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS) is a common disease in the field of otorhinolaryngology and is characterized by repeated upper airway occlusions occurring during sleep. OSAS can occur due to various etiologies of the nasal, oral, pharyngeal and laryngeal airway in adults. Nasal obstruction can be caused by septal deviation, nasal polyps, concha bullosa, choanal atresia, neoplasms, foreign body, postoperative/post-traumatic synechiae, various rhinitis and so on. There are various kinds of surgical treatment of OSAS including nasal surgery, LAUP, UPPP, surgery of tongue base, tracheostomy and so on, but the effect of nasal surgery on snoring and OSAS is controversial. The authors report the case of a patient who had experienced nasal obstruction, moderate snoring and OSAS and who improved after septoplasty and turbinoplasty.

  • 편측 성대마비의 음성개선을 위하여 현재까지 알려진 치료방법은 teflon 또는 silicone 주입술, 외과적 성대 내전술, 갑상연골 성형술, 신경재식술, 등이 있으며, 근래까지는 Teflon 또는 Gelform 주입술이 제일 효과적인 방법이라 알려져 있으나, 이는 음의 높낮이 조절능력의 한계가 있고, 신경재식술의 결과 역시 만족스럽지 못한 경우가 많다. 따라서 저자는 발성기능의 생리학적인 측면에서, 보다 효과적인 음성개선의 방법을 찾기 위하여, 사람의 후두와 비교적 유사한 특성을 가진 개를 사용하여 실험을 하였다. 반회신경을 절단하여 편측 성대 마비를 유발한 뒤, 동측의 유일한 외전근인 후윤상피열근을 절제후 절단된 신경을 문합하여, 성대의 외전근 작용의 소실과, 발성시에 주로 작용하는 내전근만의 작용을 유도하여, 공동운동의 차단과, 내전운동의 향상을 기대하였다. 본 실험에 앞서, 임의적으로 신경을 자극시킬 수 있는 신경자극기와, 주위조직으로부터 신경만을 분리하여 자극할 수 있는 전극을 개발하여 사용하였으며, 또한 성대의 발성음을 임의대로 유발시킬 수 있는 생체 내 후두발성 모형(in vivo laryngeal phonation model)을 Moore(1987, 1988)등이 발표한 모형을 토대로 자체 개발하여 사용하였다. 실험은 13마리의 개를, 반회신경 절단군(3 마리), 반회신경 절단 및 후윤상피 열근 절제군(3 마리), 후윤상피열근 절제군(3 마리), 반회신경 문합 및 후윤상피 열근 절제군(4 마리)등으로 나누어 실험하였으며, 3 개월 후, 현수후두경, 후두 내시경, videolaryngoscopy, 신경자극 검사 등으로 성대의 내전운동 및 위치 변화의 관찰, 발성음의 음향분석 및 갑상피열근의 형태학적 변화를 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 반회신경 절단군과 반회 신경 절단 및 후윤상피열근 절제군은, 수술후 3 개월에 성대의 움직임이나 각도의 변화가 없었으며, 음향분석 결과 발성음이 아닌 잡음만이 포착되었다. 즉, 절단된 신경의 문합 없이 후윤상피열근 절제 만으로는 음성개선은 기대할 수 없었다. 2. 후윤상피열근 절제군에서는 수술 후 3 개월에 정상적인 성대의 내전운동이 관찰되었으며, 음향분석상 기본주파수 동요율 및 발성음의 강도는 약간의 증가를 보였다. 즉, 반회신경이 절단되지 않은 상태에서 후윤상피 열근 만을 절제하면, 발성음의 변화는 거의 없었다. 3. 반회신경을 절단후 문합하고 후윤상피열근을 절제한군 에서는 수술후 3 개월에, 성대의 정상적인 내전운동을 보였고, 음향분석상 수술직후에는 잡음만이 포착되었으나, 3 개월 후에는 잡음이 아닌 발성음을 들을 수 있었으며, 이 발성음의 기본주파수 및 강도는 수술전보다 감소되어 있었으나, 기본주파수 동요율은 증가되어 있었다. 즉 이 술식으로 인한 뚜렷한 발성음의 향상이 있었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어, 편측 신경 절단으로 인한 성대마비시, 절단된 신경을 봉합하고 성대의 유일한 외전근인 후윤상피열근을 절제하면, 공동운동의 차단과, 내향운동의 향상으로, 음성개선에 효과적이라고 사료되었으며, 이 방법이 편측 성대마비 환자의 효과적인 음성개선의 치료방법의 하나로 응용될 수 있으리라 생각된다.

  • Purpose : This study was designed to evaluate the usefulness of 3T-TOF MR angiography (3T-TOF MRA) compared with transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) and conventional angiography (CA) in patients with suspected cerebral infarction. Materials and Methods : Fifty four patients with clinical symptoms of cerebral infarction were involved in this study, and had undergone 3T-TOF MRA and TCD, with CA in 11 patients. On the basis of divisions of the carotid artery, four groups were designated: group I, both vertebral arteries and basilar artery; group II, segment between 2 cm below bifurcation of common carotid artery and genu portion of internal carotid artery; group III, segment between petrous portion of internal carotid artery and bifurcation of anterior and middle cerebral artery; group IV, from bifurcation of anterior and middle cerebral artery to thier distal branches. Two radiologists retrospectively reviewed the vascular imaging and stenosis in 3T-TOF MRA, TCD, and CA. Results : A total of 432 arteries, 108 in each group, were available. The assessment of vascular imaging quality in 3T-TOF MRA is scored 2.98, 2.96, 2.91, 2.88 in 4 groups, respectively. Agreement among 3T-TOF MR angiography, TCD, and CA was high. Conclusion : 3T-TOF MR angiography may be useful method for the assessment of stenotic lesions of cranial vasculature in patients with cerebral infarction.

  • Purpose : The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the functional and oncologic results of the limb salvage surgery with intramedullary nailing and cementization in malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus. Materials and Methods : We reviewed 18 cases of limb salvage surgery of resection and reconstruction with an intramedullary nail and cement-molded humeral head for the malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus, which performed between August, 1992 through the April, 1998. The diagnoses included the osteosarcoma in 7 patients, chondrosarcoma in 3, the recurrent giant cell tumor in 3, metastatic tumor in 3, multiple myeloma in one patient and the one patient with malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The mean age at the time of surgery was 38 years(range, 15-73 years). The mean follow-up period was 26 months(range, 6-67 months). Results : Average functional score by ISOLS evaluation system was 21.1(70.3%). There were 3 local recurrences and 5 distant metastases. There were one case of shoulder instability and one case of deep infection. The seven patients are continuously disease free state and seven patients are alive with disease. Four patients died from the disease. Conclusion : The limb salvage surgery with intramedullary nailing and cementization in the bone tumors of the proximal humerus may be considered an option for the malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus in selected patients.

  • Purpose: To analysis of the result of the treatment of metastatic diaphyseal fracture of the humerus with closed interlocking intrameduallry nailing. Materials and Methods: Among surgically treated 29 patients with pathologic or impending fracture of diaphysis of the humeurs, 13 patients (16 cases) treated with closed intramedullary interlocking nail were selected for the study. The final result of pain relief and functional recovery was evaluated by modified rating system of Perez et al. Results: Primary cancer was diagnosed after fracture was developed in 2 patients and pathologic or impending fracture was occurred average period of 28.9 months after primary cancer was diagnosed. The main primary malignancies were multiple myeloma, lung cancer and breast cancer. Mean survival after humeral metastasis was 11.7 months. The final result was superior to fair in 13 of 16 cases, and poor in 3 cases with progression of tumor spread or distant dissemination to the ipsilateral fingers. Except the latter 3 patients and other 3 patients, who died before 3 months postoperatively, bony union was achieved in 10 cases. There were no complications related to surgery. Conclusion: Closed interlocking intrameduallry nailing is accomplished with brief operative time, small amount of bleeding and provides immediate stability with resultant early return of function to the arm. Additionally it allows early postoperative irradiation. However, some of our cases shows that intramedullary nailing can accelerate tumor spread and metastases elsewhere, so that serious consideration must be given in planning this treatment. In conclusion, the functional status before fracture, life expectancy, type of tumor and extent of involvement should be carefully considered to decide operative treatment of metastatic disease.
