구순 구개열은 구강 악안면 부위에 발생하는 선천적 기형이다. 정상적인 연구개는 휴식 시에는 구강과 비강을 연결해 주고, 연하나 특정 발음 시에는 상방으로 이동하여, 구강과 비강을 분리하는 구개인두 폐쇄 운동을 한다. 구개인두 기능부전을 갖는 구개열 환자에서는 이 운동이 불완전하여 저작, 연하, 발음 시에 어려움을 겪는다. 이때, 구개 결손부를 폐쇄하기 위해 사용하는 보철물을 구개 폐쇄장치라고 한다. 구개 폐쇄장치는 구강과 비강을 분리하여 발음, 저작, 연하, 심미적 기능을 회복한다. 본 증례의 환자는 구개인두 기능부전을 갖는 선천적 구개열 환자로 구개인두 폐쇄를 이루기 위하여 모델링 콤파운드와 점막 조정재를 이용한 기능인상 과정을 시행하여 제작한 구개 폐쇄장치를 장착하여 기능적인 면과 심미적인 면에서 만족할만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

DNA 손상 치유 유전자 연구를 기초로 한 임상적 접근이 새로운 치료방법으로 떠오르고 있다. 많은 연구들이 중요한 DNA 수복유전자의 다형성을 찾아내어 각각의 단백질의 활동성에 대한 영향을 알아내고 특정한 치료법을 찾아내고 임상적 적용을 시도하고 결과를 평가하였다. 그 결과 암 치료에서 정상 세포와 암세포에서 DNA 수복 유전자의 발현 분석은 화학요법이나 방사선 치료에서 개인맞춤형 치료법을 가능하게 하고 있다. 예를 들어, NER이 결핍된 종양은 cisplatin 치료에 민감성을 나타내고, MMR 결핍세포는 알킬화 화학요법 약제에 높은 내성을 나타낸다. 선천성 비폴립성 결장암과 같은 MMR 결손종양 또한 알킬화 화학요법 약제에 의한 치료에 내성을 가진다. 신경교종(glioma)에서 MGMT 유전자 프로모터가 흔히 메틸화되는데 이것은 유전자 발현이 억제되고 알킬화 화학요법제에 대한 반응성을 증가시킨다. 향후 구강악안면외과 영역에서도 구강암의 발생의 위험성을 증가시킬 수 있는 더 많은 DNA 수복 유전자의 다형성을 발굴하고 임상적으로 개인맞춤형 치료법을 개발하고 적용할 수 있는 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: Free flap reconstruction is performed on defects including benign and malignant tumors as well as trauma in the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, but there are few reports of free flap reconstruction cases for oral cancer in patients in Korea. Methods: This study was designed to retrospectively analyze surgical outcomes and complications of 164 free-flap reconstructions performed at the Oral Oncology Clinic, National Cancer Center, during 2002~2011. A total of 164 free flaps were performed for reconstruction of oral and maxillofacial defects which were caused by oral cancer and osteoradionecrosis in 155 patients. Results: The present study had 162 successful cases and 2 failed cases for a total of 164 cases. The study had a success rate of 98.8% for free-flap reconstructions. Flap donor sites included radial forearm free flap (n=93), fibula osteocutaneous free flap (n=25), anterolateral thigh flap (n=18), latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap (n=16) and other locations (n=12). Postoperative medical complications were generally pneumonia and delirium. Postoperative local complications occurred including partial flap necrosis, delayed wound healing of the donor site, infection of the recipient site and salivary fistula. The incidence of postoperative complications and patient-related characteristics including age, sex, smoking, history of radiotherapy, hypertension (HTN) and diabetes Mellitus (DM) were retrospectively analyzed. Patient age ($P$=0.003) and DM ($P$=0.000) and HTN ($P$=0.021) were significant risk factors for complications overall. Conclusion: The present study had no mortality and confirms that free-flap reconstructions are extremely reliable in achieving successful results.

Various local flaps and distant flaps including tongue flap, palatal island flap, and buccal flap as well as skin grafts have been used for the reconstruction of oral mucosal defect. In the posterior region of oral cavity and the buccal cheek area, buccal fat pad can be used as a pedicled graft. The buccal fat pad is different from other subcutaneous fat tissue and it is easily accessible. There are many advantages in pedicled buccal fat pad graft for the closure of oral mucosal defect. The procedure is easy, there is no visible scar in the donor site, it is capable of reconstruction of various contour, and it has good viability. We had used buccal fat pad as a pedicled graft for the closure of oral mucosal defect after the excision of tumor and the oroantral fistula. From the results of these cases, we concluded that the use of the buccal fat pad flaps was worth of the consideration for the reconstruction of oral mucosal defect in the regions of the buccal cheek, and posterior oral cavity.

$TGF-{\beta}$ is one of growth factors that may be involved in the formation of bone and cartilage. Multiple studies demonstrate that $TGF-{\beta}$ is involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation and matrix synthesis, events observed in frature healing. The apperance of $TGF-{\beta}$ in the fracture during healing was evaluated by immunohistologic localization of $TGF-{\beta}$ using antibody. Twenty Sprauge-Dawley strain white male rats, each weiging about 150grams were used and divided two groups. The one group, the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect was formed in the right femur. The other group, $4{\times}2mm$ bony defect was formed in right femur. Both group were sacrificed at 3day, 1, 2, 3, 4 week and femur were harvested, paraffin sections were stained with H & E, MT stain, immunihistochemical staining with $TGF-{\beta}$ antibody and observed under light microscope. The result were as follows: 1. New bone formation and cartilagenous tissue was seen at 3day. And in the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect group, $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the cell surounding new bone. 2. The osteoclast and trabecular was seen at 1week. $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the osteoblast and in the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect group was stained more than $4{\times}2mm$ bony defect group. 3. The lamella bone and trabecule was seen from 3, 4week, and $TGF-{\beta}$ stained almost negative. From the above finding, we could concluded that $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the osteoblast at early stage and 1week, the peak stain was seen from 1week, and then decreased, almost negative stain was seen at 3, 4week.

Bone graft has been used to repair one defect caused by disease and trauma, congenital and acquired deformities. Graft materials are autogenous bone, allogenic bone, xenogenic bone, synthetics. Autogenous bone graft is the most superior to other materials for immunologic reaction, compatibility to host tissue, and revascularization. However, autogenous bone graft is required for additional operation and the amount of taking is limited. Autografts are obtained at own expense and also limited in size, shape. In order to compensate these problems, allogenic bone graft has been used increasingly. But allogenic bone graft encounters immunologic complications. Therefore, it has been used after freezing, lyophilization, or demineralization. Allogenic bone processed by only lyophilization includes potential antigenic properties on its surface, therefore it is demineralized to deplete immunologic reaction. Demineralized bone releases BMP and helps the mesenchymal cells transform to the chondroblast to produce cartilage and bone. This reaction is called osteoinducation. Many authors have reported that mineralized lyophilized bone had less antigenicity clinically and favorable bony consideration with host bone. In our department from 1995 to now, we have used banked allogenic bone graft that has been prepared from Wonkwang Bone Bank in 5 cases and mineralized lyophilized bone graft in 2 cases to reconstruct the maxillofacial bone defect after tumor resection and cyst enucleation and cleft alveolus. We will report with literature review that the result is favorable functionally and esthetically.

Purpose: Addition of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to grafting material has become widely accepted additively for bone regeneration because it can raise high expectations on it's clinical potential. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of PRP and PRF on early bone regeneration of rabbits when used in combination with beta tricalcium phosphate. Methods: In eight rabbits, the calvarium was exposed and the two marrows were penetrated. After then these artificial bone defects were augmented with ${\beta}$-TCP or ${\beta}$-TCP with PRP or ${\beta}$-TCP with PRF and covered. The animals were sacrificed after four and eight weeks. Histologic findings were observed under the light-microscope and histomorphometric analysis was performed by measuring calcified area of new bone formation within the CSD. Results: They demonstrated that new bone formation tended to be produced along the outline of graft materials. More amounts of newly bone was regenerated in ${\beta}$-TCP only and in combination of${\beta}$-TCP with PRF and it was statistically significant. In contrast, there was no significant difference between nothing apply and ${\beta}$-TCP with PRP groups in the relative amounts of newly mineralized bone. Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, it can be concluded that PRF in combination with ${\beta}$-TCP showed a positive effect on bone regeneration and statistically it was significant.
