Tissue expansion has now been widely used in various soft tissue defects and deformities. It is to reconstruct the lesion site by providing donor tissue of the same color, texture, and similar thickness and sensation with minimal scar formation and minor donor site morbidity. It is achieved through using a temporary expander capable of accumulating normal saline. Internal pressure from expander exerts its force on the flap, which gradually expands to provide additional tissue for reconstruction. We have applied tissue expander in three patients. The first case was soft tissue loss on the left forehead. The second case was multiple scar formation on the left mandibular angle and upper cervical area. The third case was scar contraction on the right cheek. All cases have been successfully reconstructed without complications.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the change of soft tissue profile on lower face following retraction of incisors through orthodontic treatment. 31 Korean women with bialveolar protrusion who were treated with 4 first bicuspid extraction were selected. All of samples were treated from above 17 years of age. Lateral cephalometric head films taken before and after treatment were analyzed statistically. The results were obtained as follows. $\cdot$The ratio of upper incisor retraction to upper lip retraction and lower incisor retraction to lower lip retraction were 1.54:1 (r=0.746) and 0.92:1 (r=0.584) respectively $\cdot$It appeared during orthodontic treatment that UIS-LS was increased considerably and the others in soft tissue thickness measurements were slightly decresed. $\cdot$Analysis of correlation showed that the change of the upper lip (LS) with the change of maxillary central incisor (UIS) and the change of lower lip with the change of B point were most strongly correlated. $\cdot$The multiple regression equations were obtained to predict soft tissue profile change of lower face according to retraction of incisors.

Penile shaft reconstruction requires adequate soft tissue characteristics as well as constant vascular pedicles when considering a perforator flap. The free flap technique using various donor sites and regional conventional and perforator flaps have been utilized for penile shaft reconstruction. Still, the free flap techniques include challenging surgical procedures in addition to postoperative management. The regional flap can be applied to limited defects due to the size and shape. We performed the bilateral superficial external pudendal artery (SEPA) perforator flaps in order to reconstruct a circumferential penile shaft defect. The circumferential wound has noted necrotic tissue involving superficial (Dartos) fascia. We underwent debridement, preserving deep (Buck's) fascia and corpus spongiosum. Thereafter, the soft tissue defect was covered with bilateral SEPA perforator flaps. The patient has been observed for 27 months, showing penile resilience without deformity or wound-related problems.

흡수성 차페막을 이용한 조직 유도 재생술시 차폐막의 견고성으로 미루어 보아 재생을 위한 공간의 유지가 어려울 수 있다. 조직 유도 재생술과 함께 골이식술을 시행함으로써 공간 확보와 함께 적절한 혈병의 유지를 도모할 수 있고 이식된 골은 선생골 형성을 위한 핵으로 작용할 수도 있다. 최근에 사람의 치아회분말과 연석고를 혼합한 골이식재가 여러 연구를 통해 좋은 골이식재로 평가되었다. 본 연구에서는 성견 하악 소구치 2급 치근이개부위에 외과적으로 형성하여 흡수성 차폐막과 치아회분말-연석고 혼합 이식재를 이용한 조직유도재생 술을 시행하여 치주 조직 재생의 양상을 조직학적으로 관찰하고자 한다. 생후 12개월에서 16개윌 된 체중 15 Kg 내외의 성견 4마리를 이용하였다. 실험 재료로 생체흡수성 차폐막 (Biogide(R), Swiss) 를 사용하였고, 골이식재로 치아회분말-연석고를 혼합매식 하였다. 양측 상악 소구치 부위에 변연 치조골하방에 4 mm ${\times}$ 4 mm ${\times}$ 4 mm, (깊이 ${\times}$ 근원심 ${\times}$ 협설폭경) 깊이로 골내낭을 형성하였다. 형성된 골내낭의 기저부위 치근 표면에 1/4 round bur로 notch를 형성하여 참고점으로 하였다. 무작위로 선택된 한 쪽의 결손부를 대조군으로 오직 생체 흡수성 차폐막을 사용하였고, 실험군으로 치아회분말-연석고와 생체 흡수성 차폐막을 결손부로부터 2 mm 이상 덮을 수 있도록 다듬어 결손부 위에 위치시킨 후 협측 판막을 덮고 봉합하였다. 4주 후 2마리 ,8주 후 2마리를 희생시키고 통상의 방법으로 고정, 탈회, 포매의 과정을 거쳐 광학 현미경으로 검경하였다. 그 결과, 1. 4주 대조군에서 Bio-gide(R)는 완전한 흡수를 보였고, 치근이개부내에는 큰 공간이 존재하였다. 2. 4주 실험군에서 역시 Bio-gide(R)는 완전한 흡수를 보였고, 골 결손부내에 더 많은 신생골 관찰되었다. 그러나 아직까진 기존골과 신생골간에 명확한 차이가 있어서 쉽게 구분할 수 있었다. 또한 골이식재 주변으로 파골세포가 다수 관찰되며 이로 미루어 보아 활발한 골흡수가 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 3. 8주 대조군에서 결손부내에서는 기존골에 인접하여 신생골 형성이 부분적으로 일어났으나 연조직 침입이 관찰되었다. 4. 8주 실험군은 신생골이 기존골과 매우 유사한 형태로 관찰되었고, 신생골 형성 부위에 신생 혈관 증식이 관찰되었다. 또한 골내낭 기저부위에서는 백악질과, 치주인대가 재생됨이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과에서 치아회분말-연석고 혼합매식은 골재생을 위한 골전도성이 있는 재료로 사료되며, 이를 이용히여 치주조직재생술시 흡수성 차폐막과 병행하여 사용한다면 더 많은 골재생이 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Our Goal of modified segmental osteotomy on maxilla accompanied by mandibular anterior subapical osteotomy was to get the best results from patients of bi-alveolar or bi-maxillary protrusion. In this study, cephalometric and photo (en face, profile) analysis have been compared to define the soft tissue change after surgery. Lip protrusion was efficiently reduced and nasolabial angle was much obtused. Although nose was a little widened, it was quite acceptable. Blood circulation on osteotomized segment was well maintained. This relatively simple methods could be successfully applied to many patients.

Major type of facial asymmetry results from facial deformity and needs surgical correction. To diagnose facial asymmetry and set a treatment plane for patients, setting a sagittal reference plane is crucial. The purpose of this study is comparison of measurements of sagittal soft tissue reference point to three different sagittal planes. The subjects are 25 of asymmetry patients (M:15, F:10) and 19 of normal people. There are differences in point Gnathion and Stomion. Most of measurement of sagittal reference points showed within 1 mm difference from sagittal reference plane. Deviation of point Pronasale in Sa1 plane revealed significant difference among 3 reference planes. The deviation of Gnathion was proportional to the deviation of Stomion in all 3 reference planes.

The soft tissue tumors that occur commonly in newborn infants include palatal and gingival cyst of the newborn, congenital epulis, hemangioma, teratoma, pyogenic granuloma, and irritation fibroma. Such soft tissue tumors in the alveolar ridge of newborns are usually treated by surgical excision. If untreated, they can cause airway obstruction and breathing difficulty due to aspiration. They also cause discomfort during oral feeding. If nasal feeding is tried, since vomitting is impossible, there is a risk of aspiration pneumonia. In this case, a newborn infant visited our hospital with soft tissue tumor as chief complaint, and the infant was treated by surgical excision. It appeared to be similar to pyogenic granuloma and irritation fibroma upon histologic exam. However, it was different from those diseases since multinucleated giant cells were observed and it was congenital. The pathologic process of this neoplasm is not clear. This case is reported, since it is difficult to classify it as a specific disease.

The artifacts in sonography is not always harmful. Sometimes it is beneficial for the evaluation of the water contents of the soft tissue and estimating the degree of inflammation and character of the regenerated tissue indirectly using artifacts such as acoustic shadowing and the enhanced transmission. It can also be useful to evaluate the possibility of aspiration of the calcifies masses by knowing of the contents of the water among them. Unlike the MRI it is useful to get real time informations with low cost in diagnosis and treatment of the soft tissue disease usinf artifacts in sonography.

The purpose of this study was to describe growth changes of soft tissue profile in koreans with normal occlusion and to get differences between male and female. The biennial serial cephalometric radiographs of 26 samples (15 males, 11 females) with normal occlusion from 8.5 years to 18.5 years of age were used in this study. The following results were obtained : 1. Both sexes had lower facial parts more protruded at 18.5 years of age than 8.5 years of age : in total facial convexity angle, male showed a decrease(P<0.01) and female showed no significant difference(P>0.05). 2. In the growth changes of soft tissue thickness, male outgrew female in the areas of nose and upper and lower lips, and female outgrew male in the pogonion area 3. In the growth changes of upper facial height and upper part of lower facial height, male's was higher than female's growth (P<0.05). 4. The ratio of the upper facial height over the lower facial height showed a decrease at 18.5 years of age than 8.5 years of age(P<0.01). The ratio of upper vs lower part of lower facial height and that of upper lip height vs lower lip height showed no significant difference(P>0.05). 5. Male showed a sustained change into older age compared with female in soft tissue profiles.
