양측성 성대마비의 수술적 치료는 여러 가지가 알려져 있으나 원인을 알 수 없는 양측성 성대마비인 경우 견갑설골근과 경계제신경을 이용한 신경-근 이식으로 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 양측성 성대마비 환자 3례를 신경-근 이식을 이용하여 수술하였기에 보고하는 바이다. (중략)

Arare case of bilateral abducens nerve paralyses after rupture of a left posterior communicating artery(PcomA) aneurysm with multiple unruptured aneurysms in a 46-year-old female is presented. Sudden left abducens nerve paralysis followed by progressive right abducens nerve paralysis were present without additional neuroophthalmological signs. Postoperatively, bilateral abducens nerve paralyses gradually recovered and disappeared in 2 weeks. The authors reviewed and discussed the possible mechanisms involved in this uncommon neuro-ophthalmological manifestation.

양측성 정중위 성대마비는 양측 반회신경의 마비나 윤상피열연골관절이 염증이나 외상에 의하여 고정되는 경우에 발생하며 조기에 심한 호흡곤란을 초래하게 되므로 기관절개술을 요하게 되고, 또한 영구적인 기도확보를 목적으로 Woodman(1946), Orton(1948), Thornell(1959), Downey(1968)등의 여러 학자들에 의하여 다양한 방법으로 피열연골에 대한 수술법이 시도되어 왔다. 최근 10년간 본 교실에서 양측성 정중위 성대마비 7례, 양측성 윤상피열연골관절고정 2례에 대하여 endolaryngeal arytenoidectomy (Thornell's method) 6례 , extralaryngeal arytenoidectomy 3례 (Woodman's method l례, Downey's method 2례)를 각각 시행하여 비교적 좋은 성적을 거두었기에 이들을 비교 검토하여 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Objective : To identify the effect of bilateral arm training for activities of daily living(ADL) of the chronic phase after stroke. Methods : 20 patients with stroke, randomized to an experimental group(n=10) and a control group(n=10). Both groups received the usual occupational therapy. In addition, an experimental group received an bilateral arm training, 30-min sessions per a day for 6 weeks. The Functional Independence Measure(FIM) was used to evaluate ADL for both groups. Results : First, there is a significant difference before and after receiving the bilateral arm training(p <.05). Second, there are significant differences in all ADL areas of Self-care, Transfer, Social cognition after bilateral arm training(p<.05). Third, there are significant differences in all sub-areas of Self-care, only stairs of Locomotion, and only Problem solving of Social cognition by comparing sub-areas as bilateral arm activity(before and after) and occupational therapy intervention(before and after). Conclusion : Using bilateral arm training for the chronic phase after stroke improved their abilities of ADL. Therefore, there are an expectation to use bilateral activity training for the chronic after stroke clinically and a need of further study about bilateral arm training related to ADL in the future.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of occupation-based bilateral upper extremity training and transcranial direct current stimulation on upper limb function in stroke patients. The study group was divided into 13 experimental groups with occupation-based bilateral upper extremity training and transcranial direct current stimulation, and 13 controls with only occupation-based bilateral upper extremity training. A total of 4 weeks, 50 minutes, 5 times a week conducted, the patients were tested with Canadian Occupational Performance Measure(COPM), Accelerometer, Fugle-Meyer Assessment(FMA), and Motor Activity Log(MAL). As a result of the study, the experimental group and the control group showed significant improvement in both occupation satisfaction and performance, usage of the affected side and the tendon side, recovery of upper limb function, and quality of movement, In particular, the experimental group showed a significant difference in the amount of the affected side than the control group. Therefore, it was found that the combination of occupation-based bilateral upper extremity training and transcranial direct current stimulation had a positive effect on the recovery of upper limb function in stroke patients.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) commonly arise from the pleura and are mostly benign. However, they may develop anywhere in the body, and 10%-30% are malignant. Classically, SFTs appear as solitary enhancing masses, and bilateral presentation is extremely rare. In this case, an 88-year-old male presented with back pain and a history of chronic tuberculous empyema. Imaging studies revealed bilateral paravertebral masses with aggressive radiologic features, which were speculatively presumed as thoracic malignancies in association with chronic empyema. Herein, we report a unique case of bilateral paravertebral malignant SFTs that were accurately diagnosed with a CT-guided coaxial needle biopsy.

Bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis is a rare disease. It is caused by trauma, cardiothoracic surgery, neuromuscular disorders, corvical spondylosis, and infection. A 60 year-old male patient developed bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis after an on-bloc resection of thymic carcinoma which invaded the right upper lobe, pericardium, superior vena cava and innominate vein. Severe respiratory difficulty developed and ventilator weaning was impossible. We performed bilateral diaphragmatic plication. After the operation, satisfactorily ventilator weaning and sleeping in supine position were possible; therefore, we report this case.

Most dentigerous cysts are solitary. Bilateral and multiple dentigerous cysts are rare and occur typically in association with a number of syndromes such as Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, Hunter's syndrome, Basal cell nevus syndrome, Marfan syndrome, cleidocranial dysplasia. The presented case is of bilateral nonsyndromic, dentigerous cysts associated with mandibular right and left first premolars. A marsupialization procedure may be a choice of treatment for a large sized dentigerous cyst rather than an enucleation. The marsupialization procedure is recommended during the age when the erupting force of the teeth is still strong. We can expect the unerupted tooth to erupt normally. Although most of bilateral or multiple dentigerous cysts which are not associated with syndromes are rare, a bilateral dentigerous cyst without syndrome is seen. Therefore, it is wise to explain a possibility of development of new one to patient / parents in advance.

Purpose: Bilateral traumatic locked posterior dislocations of the shoulder are very rare and there has been no report on the operative treatment for this injury in the Korean medical literature. Materials and Methods: We present here a case of bilateral locked posterior dislocations of the shoulders after trauma and this was successfully treated with open reduction and lesser tuberosity transfer on the right shoulder and subscapularis tendon transfer on the left shoulder. Results and Conclusion: Twenty-four months later, the clinical and radiologic results were excellent.

Background: The simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare clinical event. Contrary to the unilateral pneumothorax, the patients with simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax sometimes complains of severe respiratory distress, cyanosis and chest pain without tention pneumothorax. It is often dangerous; therefore, the chest drain should be inserted immediately. Material and Method: Between March 1994 and February 2004, 802 patients were treated in our department for spontaneous pneumothorax. Among these, the simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax developed in 14 patients (1.7%). Result: Out of fourteen patients, two females and twelve males presented with simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax. The patient age ranged between 0 and 79 years with mean age of 31.2 years. In eleven patients, this was the first episode of pneumothorax. One patient had combined hemopneumothorax and two patients had combined pyopneurnothorax. Six patients had smoking history (42.8%, average 17.3 p-y). Five patients had pulmonary tuberculosis history and among these, two patients had active pulmonary tuberculosis. Three patients were died due to meconium-aspiration pneumonia (1 patient) and ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) with pneumonia (2 patients). We treated these patients with nasal oxygen inhalation, chest drain insertion, thoracotomy, VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery) and chemical pleurodesis. Conclusion: The simultaneous bilateral spontaneous pneumothorax developed in 14 patients (1.7%) among 802 patients. Prompt insertion of chest drain is needed for a relief of severe symptoms, and to reduce the risk of recurrence, early thoracotomy or VATS should be performed rather than chest drain insertion only.
