Kidney diseases rates in modern Korean society, which is entering an aging society, are growing. These diseases diagnosed at early stage can be cured with the drug or dietary treatment. If, however, at worsening stage, kidney dialysis or transplant is needed. In this context, we analyzed the relationship between kidney and voice by measuring and analyzing the changing rate of the vocal chord and intensity according to hemodialysis. For this, we collected voice samples before and after hemodialysis, and compared and analyzed them through application of vocal analytical element. Namely, based on oriental medical diagnosis theory that voice is quieted down when kidney is abnormal, we collected voice samples before and after hemodialysis, and applied trembling and intensity analysis of vocal chord.

Giant cell tumor is usually found around the knee joint, especially in the distal femur or proximal tibia. Despite being classified as benign, it has unusual biological behavior of local aggressiveness and tend to have severely destructive lesion and develop rare pulmonary metastasis. Therefore, when the patient is presented to the physician with an expansile lytic lesion of challenging clinicopathologic entity extending to subchondral bone, the physician faces up to difficulties in treatment. We report a case of 25 years old patient having recurrent giant cell tumor in the right distal femur which developed metastasis to lung. The primary bone lesion was treated with local curettage and fillings with methylmethacrylate, but when he returned to the hospital two years later, the recurrence had developed with lung metastasis.

Surgical treatment of pelvic bone tumors represent one of the most complicated problem in musculoskeletal oncology. Because of three dimensional anatomy of the pelvis, tumors reach huge sizes and the diagnosed late relatively to a similar tumors in extremity. Especially, there are limited reconstruction methods to keep the function of hip joint after resection of periacetabular tumors, and the results of reconstruction is not so promissing. We present one case of periacetabular metastatic tumor from renal cell carcinoma, which was resected with wide margin and reconstructed with composite of pasteurized autogenous bone graft and constrained total hip arthroplasty.

Purpose : In this study, we analyzed the short term changes of thyroid function, incidence and risk factors of thyroid dysfunction soon after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in children. Methods : We enrolled 80 pediatric patients following allogeneic HSCT, at the Catholic HSCT center between January, 2004 and February, 2006. Serum TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), total serum thyroxine and total serum triiodothyronine levels were systematically measured in 80 patients before the HSCT, and at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after HSCT. Results : Thyroid function statistically decreased at 1 month after HSCT(P<0.001). Thyroid dysfunction at 1 month was observed in 43 (54 percent) of 80 patients, 31 (39 percent) of whom presented with euthyroid sick syndrome (ETS). Thyroid dysfunction was normalized within 1 year after HSCT. In univariate analysis, malignant disease and the presence of acute graft-versus-host disease (grade ${\geq}II$) were risk factors for ETS (P=0.04, 0.01 respectively). In multivariate analysis, we could not detect an independent risk factor for ETS (P=0.19, 0.06 respectively). Conclusion : The present study suggests that the incidence of thyroid dysfunction is high after allogeneic HSCT. Therefore, regular monitoring of thyroid hormone levels after HSCT is required.

The present study investigated the effects of variations in decalcification time of demineralized freeze-dried bone on the osteogenic potential of DFDB. Sixteen 3-wall intrabony defects with 4mm depth were surgically created in the mesial aspect of upper and lower anterior teeth of 4 dogs. Following the flap procedure, three test groups with 4 defects each received either freeze-dried bone graft (Group I), demineralized freeze-dried bone graft decalcified for 12hours (Group II), or demineralized freeze-dried bone graft decalcified for 24hours(Group III). The rest of the four defects received the flap procedure-only as the control group. The healing was histologically analyzed after 14 weeks on the length of connective tissue adhesion, new bone formation and new cementum formation. The results were as follows: 1. The length of connective tissue adhesion showed no statistically significant difference in all groups with $0.62{\pm}0.14mm$ for Control, $0.42{\pm}0.11mm$ for Group I, $0.63{\pm}0.43mm$ for Group II and $0.52{\pm}0.11mm$ for Group III. 2. The new bone formation showed no statistically significant difference in all groups with $3.17{\pm}0.24mm$ for Control. $3.15{\pm}0.56mm$ for Group I. $3.22{\pm}0.36mm$ for Group II, and $3.28{\pm}0.74mm$ for Group III. 3. The new cementum formation showed no statistically significant difference in all groups with $4.19{\pm}0.46mm$ for Control, $3.23{\pm}0.64mm$ for Group I, $4.13{\pm}1.82mm$ for Group II. and $3.13{\pm}0.62mm$ for Group III.

Percutaneous transthoracic fine needle biopsy has been widely used In the diagnosis of pulmonary lesions especially lung cancer. Onc of the rarest complication's is that malignant cells are implanted within the needle tract and developed a chest wall mass subsequently. Wc expcrlenccd a case of chest wall implantatio of lung cancer after percutaneous transthoracic floe needle biopsy. A 65-ycar old man had undergone bilobectomy (right upper lobe and right middle lobe)for squamous cell (·4rcinoma (TINOMO) of the lung. 60 days after percutaneous biopsy (48 days after operation), a tiny nodule (1 mm sized) was notcd at the right anterior chcst wall where the diagnostic fine needle biopsy had been performed before operation. This tiny mass was rapidly growing to 1.5 cm sized mass for 20 days. We carried out wide excision of chest wall mass and skin grafting, and confirmed squamous cell carcinoma histopathologically as same as the lung cancer.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the distribution of the diameter of four strand autologous hamstring tendon and to identify the factors related to the diameter. Materials and Methods: Between December 2004 and July 2006, 66 patients underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autologous hamstring tendon. Sixty one patients were male and the other 5 patients were female. Both semitendinosus and gracilis tendon were harvested in every case. Harvested two tendons were folded once together to create a four strand double loop graft and were passed through cylindrical sizer to measure their diameter. Parameters such as sex, age, height and weight were analyzed for their correlation with the diameter of the graft. Results: The diameter of the graft ranged from 6 mm to 10 mm. The graft with the diameter of 8 mm was most common and the average diameter of all the grafts was $7.85{\pm}0.92mm$. Seven patients (10.6%) had a graft with the diameter of 6 mm, which is considered too thin to be ideal one. No statistically significant correlation was found between age of the patient and the diameter of the graft. However, the diameter of the graft was significantly correlated with sex, height and weight of the patient. Female patients had a significant tendency to have thinner hamstring tendons. Both small height and light weight of the patients were correlated with thinner hamstring tendons significantly. Conclusion: Sex, height and weight of the patients were the factors that had a statistically significant correlation with the diameter of the graft. Being aware of the risk factors related with harvesting exceedingly thin hamstring tendon prior to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, one can utilize wide range of options in selecting an optimal graft.
