Esthetic factors are very important in the success of maxillary anterior implant restoration. However, achieving esthetic results is difficult, especially in cases where periodontitis has resulted in severe alveolar bone loss. In the case of maxillary anterior teeth, the alveolar ridge resorption that begins immediately after tooth extraction interferes with the esthetic implant restoration. Therefore immediate implant placement can be performed to minimize the alveolar ridge resorption. However, in severe bone loss cases, immediate implant placement could result in esthetic failure, and this result might cause irreparable problems. We can also perform alveolar ridge preservation and then place implants later. On JCP published in 2019, there is the consensus of European academy of periodontology on the extraction socket management and the timing of implant placement. This consensus states that alveolar ridge preservation should be considered when there is severe labial bone loss in an esthetically important area such as maxillary anterior region. On performing the alveolar ridge preservation, we cannot obtain the primary wound closure, so secondary wound healing is induced with open membrane technique or soft tissue grafting should be performed for primary wound closure. However, the secondary wound healing can have a negative impact on bone regeneration, and soft tissue grafting such as FGG or CT graft can be burdensome for both patients and dentists. On the other hand, by using the granulation tissue in the extraction socket, primary closure can be achieved without soft tissue grafting. Also some studies have shown that granulation tissue in periodontal defects contains stem cells that may help in tissue regeneration. Based on this, implant restorations were performed on maxillary anterior teeth with severe alveolar bone loss by alveolar ridge preservation using granulation tissue. In spite of the severe bone defect of the extraction socket, relatively esthetic results could be obtained in implant restorations.

A 77-year-old man presented with a huge protruding mass on the left anterior chest wall. The tumor was resected and diagnosed as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP). DFSP is an uncommon, intermediate-grade mesenchymal cutaneous tumor which extends deep into subcutaneous tissue and may invade through the fascial planes and into muscle but rarely metastasize. Histologically, DFSP is composed of spindle cells arranged in an irregularly whorled or storiform pattern. The histological diagnosis can be confirmed with immunohistochemical staining for CD34. We report a case of DFSP. The tumor was completely excised and the chest wall was reconstructed using latissimus dorsi muscle flap and skin graft.

The extent of renal biopsy indication is being widened because of the increasing incidence of incidental renal masses; the increasing treatment options for renal cell carcinoma, including ablation therapy and novel targeted treatment; and the increasing incidence of kidney transplantation. However, percutaneous renal biopsy is technically difficult, particularly for beginners, because the skin-to-organ distance is relatively longer than those associated with other organs. In the present review, we will discuss the indications, technical considerations, efficacy, and complications of renal biopsy. Furthermore, we share practical tips of renal biopsy through many examples to help radiologists perform renal biopsy safely and effectively in various situations.

implant라는 것은 생리학적으로 생체에 있어서 이물이라는것을 인식해야 한다. 또 그 일부를 상부구조물을 제작하기 위하여 구강내에 노출시킴으로써 연조직과의 접촉부위가 감염으로 염증상태를 지속하고 있다. 그뿐아니라 저작시에 교합압에 의한 위격으로 골내에 여러 가지 변화를 일으킨다. 이와같이 생체내에 이물를 implant 하였을 때 생기는 반응은 생체의 방어기전으로서 염증을 일으키는데 이 염증의 진도에 따라 동화, 흡수, 배제중의 어느 하나로 결말짓게 된다. 따라서 implant를 시술하였을때 생기는 조직의 반응을 최소한으로 감소하기 위한 생물학적 적응조건으로서 재료, 약물, 기구, 시술방법 등을 잘 선택하는 것이 implant의 임상응용에 요절이 되는것이다. implant의 종류는 실로 다양다종이다. 그러나 어떤 implant와 시술방법을 선택하든지 악골에 접착, 또는 식위하여 견고하게 장착되어 그 implant된 자체를 통하여 가장 천연치에 가까운 기능을 얻는것이 implant의 시술목적이다. 임상의가 implant를 시술하면서 이것이 과연 성공할것인가? 즉 저작효율과 내구연한이 얼마나 갈것인가 우려하지 않을수 없다. 그러므로 그 우려를 덜고 성공으로 이끄는 임상상의 문제점을 찾아 논하기로 한다.

The fibrin sealant was first designed as an alternative to surgical suture for the purpose of surface-to-surface union especially in parenchymal organs like the liver, spleen and kidney. The clinical application of currently used fibrin sealant was first introduced in 1972. The fibrin sealant consists of principal two components; lyophilized human fibrinogen and bovine thrombin. The fibrinogen component also contains coagulation factor XIII. A solution of aprotinin, an inhibitor of fibrinolysis is used to dissolve the fibrinogen and to provide the first component, and a solution of calcium chloride is also used to provide the second component. From July to December in 1990, during 6 months, we used fibrin sealant in the 28 patients of 33 various cases, in the following ways; supportive application of fibrin sealant after free autogenouse nerve graft for the repair of inferior alveolar nerve, facial nerve or accessory nerve, treament of hemangioma or lymphangioma to thrombosize and lead to the tumor shrinking, skin grafting to stimulate the adhesion and tissue repair, bone grafting in the patients of cleft alveolus, mandibular reconstruction or orthognathic surgery to facilitate the knitting of bone chips, tissue adhesion after tumor resection, radical neck dissection or flap reconstructions, and supportive adhesion of external auditory cannal after TMJ surgery via postauricular approach. No adverse effects were observed, none of the patients developed hepatitis or other blood transmitted disease, and the wound healing were acceptable.

Purpose: This retrospective study is to evaluate whether the timing of implant placement and the result of esthetic outcomes are related. Materials and Methods: Among the patients who had undergone single implant surgery on anterior area from 2010 to 2013 in Veterans Health Service Medical Center, 34 implants in 27 patients (24 male and 3 female) were selected and categorized into 3 groups according to the timing of placement, which are group D (Delay), group E (Early) and group I (Immediate). Aesthetic indices used included the Pink Esthetic Score (PES). It has 7 variables scores, such as mesial papilla, distal papilla, a level of soft-tissue margin, soft-tissue contour, alveolar process, soft-tissue color, and soft-tissue texture. Each variable ranges from 0 to 2, therefore total 14 points are highest. All patients were received by regular follow-up at least 1-year. One examiner measured PES on the intraoral photos. Each patient was considered as a statistical unit for statistical analysis. Statistical analyses were performed using a commercially available statistical software (SPSS Statistics 21.0, IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Kruskal-Wallis test was used for inter-group comparisons. Statistical significance was set at P<0.05. Result: Mean score in Group D, Group I, and Group E were $11.5{\pm}1.5$, $11.4{\pm}1.8$, and $11.3{\pm}1.8$ respectively. In Kruskal-Wallis test, there are no differences (P=0.989). Conclusion: In this limited study suggests that clinical aesthetic results can be achieved with all treatment protocols. Finally, various factors can be considered to produce the esthetic results.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of preservation of the tibial remnant on the synovialization of graft tendon after the reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) based on the second look arthroscopic findings. Materials and Methods: From May 2005 to May 2012, among sixty three patients having ACL reconstruction with the four-strand hamstring using a bioabsorbable cross pin (RigidFix$^{(R)}$) for the femoral tunnel, nineteen patients who had second look arthroscopy were analyzed. We classified them into three groups according to the tibial remnant of the torn ACL for arthroscopic findings. Group 1 had less than 5 mm of a remnant tissue, Group 2 had from 6 mm to 10 mm of it, and Group 3 had more than 11 mm. We estimated the percentage of synovial coverage on the graft tendon during second look arthroscopy. We evaluated Lysholm score and Tegner activity score preoperatively and in the last follow-up. Results: At the time of ACL reconstruction, the mean length of preserved tibial remnant of torn ACL was 2.3 mm in Group 1, 7.4 mm in Group 2, and 13.7 mm in Group 3. In the second look arthroscopy, the average percentage of synovial coverage was 55.4% in Group 1, and 77.9% in Group 2, and 89.7% in Group 3. Lysholm score and Tegner activity score improved from 74.2 and 7.3 preoperatively to 94.1 and 8.5 in the last follow-up. Conclusion: The preservation of tibial remnant of torn ACL influenced the synovial coverage of the graft tendon and the volume of preserved remnant in accordance with the surface of synovial coverage. It would have a good effect on graft healing and preservation of proprioceptive function.
