Purpose Patients with bladder cancer may show hematuria after radical cystectomy with ileal neobladder formation, causing anxiety regarding tumor recurrence. Here, we aim to show that the nutcracker syndrome (NCS) can be a cause of hematuria post-operation, and is a common, rather than a rare syndrome. Materials and Methods A retrospective review of contrast-enhanced abdominopelvic CT (CE-APCT) and urine analysis (UA) findings of 255 patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystectomy and ileal neobladder formation between 2011 and 2016 was performed. In the CE-APCT review, the left renal vein flow patterns were evaluated to determine the presence of NCS findings. In the UA review, patients were classified according to the percentage of UA tests with positive hematuria among the total number of UA tests. Results CT findings of NCS were present in 31.9% of the 135 patients. In the positive hematuria group, there were 26% more patients with NCS findings than those without. Conclusion NCS findings are prevalent even for bladder cancer patients after surgery, and there is a strong correlation between NCS findings and hematuria. Furthermore, the prevalence of NCS findings is much higher than urinary tract recurrence after the surgery.

이리듐-192(lr-192)는 각종 형태의 암조직의 특성에 맞게 변형하여 적절히 사용되는 특수치료용 동위원소로서, 반감기가 74일로 짧으며 에너지도 낮아 보관$\cdot$관리가 용이하고, 금속 철선 형태로 제작되어 인체내의 암조직에 바늘상태로 자입하는데 편리하게 사용되므로 근접치료에 가장 보편적으로 사용된다. 또한 라듐(Ra-226)이나 세슘(Cs-137)과 달리 시술하는 의료진의 방사선피폭에 전혀 문제가 없다. 원자력병원 연구팀은 최근 이를 이용, 안구 적출없이 안구암흑색종을 치료하는 신기술을 개발한 바 있다.

조기후두암은 치료 목표는 생명을 구하면서 동시에 후두기능을 최대한으로 보존하는 것이라고 할 수 있는데, 치료자의 철학과 환자의 선호도에 따라 방사선 치료, 레이저 수술 그리고 후두부분적출술 등의 방법이 적용되고 있다. 어떤 치료 방법이던 재발암에 대한 구제치료를 포함하면, 궁극적인 생존율은 거의 비슷하다. 그러므로 일차 치료후 얼마나 적극적으로 환자를 추적관찰하고, 적절한 구제수술을 시행하느냐에 따라 생명의 보존 그리고 재발암에서의 기능의 보존 여부가 좌우된다고 할 수 있다. 향후 보다 체계적인 추적 관찰법과 최소의 환자 부담으로 최대의 성과를 거둘 수 있는 치료방법 이 연구되어져야겠다.

The dentigerous cyst originates through alteration of stellate reticulum after amelogenesis has completed, with accumulation of fluid between the layers of the reduced enamel epithelium or between this epithelium and the tooth crown. Its incidence is relatively high on 10s or 20s of age and it is always related to the unerupted crown. Generally, it has no symptom, however, if the cyst is large or accompanied with pus formation, swelling and pain may occur. In radiographic findings, it shows impacted crown surrounded by well defined unilocular radiolucent lesion and occasionally displacement of adjacent teeth or root resorption. The goal of treatment is complete elimination of abnormal tissue preserving the tooth involved in the cyst. Enucleation and marsupialization are commonly used for the treatment. Marsupialization is the procedure which removes the partial portion of the cystic wall and connects with the oral mucosa. As the pressure in the cyst decreases, bone regeneration takes place in the defect area and cystic wall converts into normal mucosa. This procedure, however, is the most conservative procedure which allows the protection of adjacent important structures. If the eruption space is sufficient, then inducing the eruption of the permanent tooth in the cyst is also possible. In following cases, dentigerous cyst was diaganosed after clinical and radiographic examination. Marsupialazation was done to remove the cyst and induce the tooth, which was in the cyst, to erupt into the oral cavity.

A clinical study was performed on 152 cases of surgical esophageal disease treated by the Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery of Korea University Hospital from Jan. 1989 through July 1994. The most common esophageal disease was cancer which was seen in 73 cases (48%) among 152 cases. All were treated surgically' 52 patients (71%) were managed by curative or palliative resection with reconstruction and feeding gastrostomy or jejunostomy, otherwise Celestine tube insertion was performed on the remaining 21 patients for palliatio'n. Esophageal leiomyoma occurred in 6 cases(3.9%), among them 1 case was performed with trio recoscopic enucleation . Achalasia were in 7 cases (4.6%) and was treated with modified Heller's m otomy and with Belsey Mark IV operation. Diverticulum were in 11 cases (7.2%). Esophageal stricture occurred in 20 cases (14.1 %) and 17 of 20 cases were managed with bypass surgery. Esophageal perforation was seen in 20 cases, its cause was instrumental trauma in 7 cases, stab wound in 4 cases, foreign body in 4 cases, spontaneous perforation in 3 cases, and others 1 case Other disease including congenital lesion was seen In 1 Scases.

A 59-year old woman visited us for incidentally detected posterior mediastinal mass. Preoperative esophagography, esophagoscopy, esophageal ultrasound and computed tomography showed a esophageal submucosal tumor. With the diagonsis of esophageal leiomyoma, the patient underwent right side video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS): The mediastinal pleura and the esophageal muscle layers were longitudinally opened and the tumor was enucleated. Esophagography performed at 6th postoperative day revealed no esophageal mucosal bulging or leakage. The patient was discharged reveiving a soft diet on the 7th postoperative day.

Various flaps are using for reconstruction of esophageal defect. The choice of reconstruction is depended to the oncologic needs of the situation. If the entire esophagus or significant part of the thoracic esophagus is involved by tumor, then total esophagectomy and gastric pull-up or colon transposition is indicated. But for most hypopharyngeal tumors, laryngopharyngeal tumors, and cervical esophageal tumors, segmental resection of these area and replacement with a jejunal fee or forearm free flap has become the standard technique. The authors have experienced a case of total pharyngo-laryngo-esophago-gastrectomy and colon transposition in a patient of esophageal cancer following partial esophagectomy and gastic pull-up due to corrosive esophageal stricture. We report this case with brief review of the literatures.

A 9-year-old intact female Shih-Tzu was presented with abdominal pain and abdominal distension. Since the animal's birth, the owner had never observed proestrous bleeding in the patient. Ultrasonography revealed segmental enlargement of the genital system. An ovariohysterovaginectomy was performed to remove the genital mass. The vagina was grossly dilated as a result of being filled with a solid black-green substance. A vaginogram was performed. Based on the surgical findings and vaginogram results, an imperforate hymen was diagnosed. One month from the first surgery, a stump pyocolpos developed between the sutured site and the obstructed portion. The persistent hymen was removed by endoscopy. However, peritonitis and sepsis developed after the procedure, and the dog died. Therefore, During operation of persistent hymen, a cruciate incision over the hymen strongly recommended to avoid additional post operative complications.

An ameloblastoma is one of the most common odontogenic tumors. Ameloblastoma is cytologically a benign tumor, but is clinically characterized by infiltrative growth and high recurrency. The treatment of ameloblastoma has been controversial. The aim of this paper is to consider effectiveness of curettage and enucleation after SSRO in the small-sized multilocular intraosseous ameloblastomas that have been treated more frequently by radical treatment. They were radiographically characterized by the cortical bone that was expanded or eroded locally and histopathologically by solid multilocular ameloblastomas. It is considered that curettage and enucleation after SSRO and long-term follow-up enable the small-sized multilocular intraosseous ameloblastomas that were characterized by almost destroyed cancellous bone and expanded cortical bone to treat minimizing facial disfigurement and masticatory dysfunction and sociopsychological impact produced by radical treatment. We recommend that the small-sized multilocular intraosseous ameloblastomas without involvement to the surrounding soft tissues be first treated by curettage and enucleation after SSRO.
