  • The objective of this study was to assess the usefulness of bone scans in routine preoperative examinations of patients with newly diagnosed non-small cell lung carcinoma. Material and Method: We reviewed the medical records of 258 patients who were newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer in our hospital between January 2000 and December 2000. More than half of the patients (132) were deemed to be inoperable due to their advanced stage based on the CT scans. The remaining 126 patients were considered potentially operable. For these patients, clinical evaluation including the presence of bone pain, serum alkaline phosphatase, and calcium levels was used as clinical predictors of bone metastasis. All patients received bone scans. Bone X-rays, MRI or bone biopsy were performed to confirm the presence of bone metastasis. The usefulness of the bone scan was evaluated by comparing its power of predicting bone metastasis to that of the clinical information. Result: In all patients, the positive and negative predictive values of bone scans for the bone metastasis were 44%, and 99%, respectively. Those of the clinical information were 38% , and 94%. However, in potentially operable patients, the negative predictive value of the clinical information was as high as 99%. Conclusion: If newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer patients are presented as potentially operable on the basis of CT scan with no clinical evidence of distant metastases, curative resection could be considered without performing routine bone scans because of the low probability of bone metastasis. However, if there are positive clinical findings, further evaluations, including bone scan should be followed as metastasis will be documented in more than 30% of patients.

  • The use of phonosurgery in the recent development of laryngomicrosurgery has enabled the restoration of a normal voice in respect to functional laryngeal surgery which in Korea in the past limited to simple removal of benign laryngeal tumor such as laryngeal polyp or nodules and cordal injection of $Teflon^{{\circledR}}$ for the treatment of recurrent nerve paralysis under the vision of suspension laryngoscopy. Performance of phonosurgery for the treatment of cord paralysis, mutational dysphonia, vocal cord atrophy, hyperkinetic dysphonia and sulcus vocalis is a happy event in the view point of development of phonosurgery in Korea. In this aspect thyroplasty to change the position and physical characteristics of the cord outside the glottis instead of the direct handling of the vocal cord through direct endoscopy is popular. Among the 4 types of thyroplasty, classified by Insshiki(1974), type I thyroplasty(1ateral compression of vocal cord) and type IV thyroplasty(lengthening of vocal cord) were effective in the treatment of unilateral vocal cord paralysis. Advantages of this operation are the fine adjustment of the degree of lateral compression under local anesthesia according to the phonation of the patient during operation and avoidance of dyspnea and intralaryngeal hemorrhage due to the manipulation outside the internal perichondrium of the thyroid cartilage. We did 7 cases of thyroplasty for the treatment of unilateral vocal cord paralysis in the 7 months from September 1981 to March 1982. Before the operation aerodynamic study, psychoacoustical evaluation, stroboscopy and sound spectrographic analysis were done. Two months after the operation the above procedures were performed again. Results of preoperative and postoperative examination were compared and the following results were obtained. 1) In the aerodynamic study, maximum phonation time increased to 158% of the preoperative value and the phonation quotient and the mean flow rate decreased to 58% and 54% of preoperative values. 2) The degree of hoarseness improved in the psychoacoustical evaluation and the glottic chink during phonation was decreased in the stroboscopic examiantion. 3) In the sound spectrographic analysis, periodicity was much restored and noise distribution decreased especially in the high frequency area.

  • Evaluating the patient's voice before thyroidectomy is useful for the purpose of identifying patients with vocal cord paralysis without symptoms, identifying other patient's voice abnormalities, and whether it is related to voice disorders that may occur after surgery. Also voice evaluation after thyroid surgery is helpful in diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation and follow-up of voice disorders that occur without clear nerve damage after thyroidectomy. And it is helpful for rapid recovery through active early rehabilitation treatment for patients who complain of speech impairment without paralysis. In particular, neck exercise can improve the adhesion of the surgical site and increase the range of motion of the neck as well as improve subjective neck discomfort. In addition, hearing, voice and breathing functions should be improved, and voice hygiene education and counseling should be provided. Vocal cord injection is the first treatment option for unilateral vocal cord palsy. By establishing a protocol for voice disorders before and after thyroid surgery and providing appropriate treatment, the quality of life of patients can be improved.

  • Several distinct pathologic entities are encompassed in benign vocal fold lesions, including intracordal cysts, vascular ectasia, as well as vocal fold nodules and vocal fold polyps. Treatment options for theses lesions include both medical/conservative and surgical techniques. First approaches should be focus on correcting the underlying causative factors, largely through voice therapy and education. There are several laryngomicrosurgery techniques for removal of benign lesions. Much debate continues regarding the relative merits of cold instruments versus carbon dioxide laser removal of benign vocal fold lesions. Both techniques have the merits and the demerits each other. Therefore the surgeon should well comprehend the merits of each techniques and choose the proper procedure for patient's lesions.

  • Vocal strain occur chiefly in those whose occupations professional singers, teachers, actors, and so on. Continuous vocal strain may perpetuate and aggravate the condition and lead to formation of established vocal nodules. The nodes are at first red and soft. These fresh nodes are well responded by chewing method without surgery. Recently the author experienced three cases of singers nodule (one male professional classic singer, one female pop singer, one male teacher) treated by chewing method. The purpose of this paper is to discuss principles and methods of chewing with literature review.

  • 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.
