The purpose of this study is to understand using of antithrombotic agents in clinical settings. The number of patients receiving antithrombotic therapy is increasing in the long term due to the increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease in the elderly. There is a guideline for discontinuation of antithrombotic treatment before dental treatment, but the present study shows that there is a difference from the actual clinical situation. We used an online survey methodology to involve 1000 participants. The questionnaires were asked about general items and Clinical experience such as history of antithrombotic history, experience of complications due to antithrombotics, discontinuation of use, reasons for discontinuing use. The result is as follows. The incidence of delayed bleeding was found to be 55.1%, and discontinuation of antithrombotic therapy before withdrawal was 87.8%. Among respondents 98.3% responded that they stopped antithrombotics because of delayed bleeding and 57.4% responded that they would stop for three to five days. Korean dentists maybe cope with delayed bleeding considering the emotional problem of the patient, the relationship with the patient's physician, and the additional socioeconomic problems.

중증외상 환자의 사망률을 높이는 출혈의 형태에는 정맥손상으로 인한 출혈과 골절 및 장기손상에 의한 동맥손상 출혈, 골수 내 출혈이 있을 수 있는데, 이중에서 동맥손상에 의한 출혈은 진단이 지연되면 다량의 출혈로 인한 생체활력 징후가 불안정하며 사망률이 높아지는 아주 중요한 질환이다. 응급실을 내원한 중증외상 환자로 등록된 환자 중 혈관조영술을 시행 받고, 동맥 파열이 진단되어 동맥색전술을 시행 받은 환자를 대상으로 생존의 영향을 미치는 인자에 대하여 알아보고자 하며 생존 군과 사망 군을 비교하여 동맥촬영 및 색전술이 적절한 치료방법으로 유용성과 적절한 시행시점을 연구하기 위함이다.

본방사선 치료 후에 후두 절제술을 시행할 경우 인두피부누공, 감염, 출혈 등 상처부위 합병증의 가능성이 높다. 저자들은 최근에 항암치료와 방사선 치료 후에 재발한 성문상부암에 대해 후두 전적출술을 시행하였고, 수술 66일째 생명을 위협하는 인두의 동맥 출혈을 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

당뇨병환자의 치과시술시 가장 문제가 되는 사항은 감염에 대한 위험성 증가와 창상치유 지연이다. 대부분의 치과치료는 출혈을 일으키고 창상을 남긴다. 만약 치과치료를 예정하고 있는 환자가 당뇨병환자라면 치과의사는 보다 적극적으로 감염 가능성을 예방하거나 줄이고 창상을 최소화하는 방향으로 치과 치료계획을 세울 것이다. 그러므로 당뇨병환자가 치과치료를 받을 때 가장 중요한 사항은 환자 본인의 당뇨 병력을 상세히 치과 진료진에게 알려주는 것이다. 물론 병력은 상세할수록 좋다.

Most low-energy pelvic ring fractures in elderly patients are treated conservatively so that an initial evaluation for complications such as vascular injury is usually overlooked. An 81-year-old female, who was taking regular aspirin, visited the emergency room and was diagnosed with a simple non-displaced pubic ramus fracture from a low-energy fall from standing, which was complicated by massive hemorrhage from the overlooked injury of the corona mortis. Elderly patients with pelvic ring fractures can have a delayed presentation of vascular injuries, regardless of the degree of displacement of the fractures, which highlights the need for a careful physical examination and close monitoring.

With the progress of medical treatment techniques of bleeding control, dental care of the patient with hemophilia has become more convenient. So many surgical treatments can be performed with out-patient. 2 cases of intraoral surgical treatment of children, one with hemophilia 3, sever, the other with hemophilia A, severe. While the former was treated under general anesthesia, the latter was treated under local anaesthesia. There are principles : 1. When a patient with hemophilia need dental treatment, the dentist must consult to his physician, pediatrician, or hematologist before dental treatment. 2. When the dentist make a treatment plan, there should be consideration of the general condition, cooperation of the patient and risk of the treatment needed. 3. Minimize the number of times of coming for dental treatment so that reduce the times that need replacement therapy of coagulation factor. And during the treatment, dentist should care for infection and bleeding.

Neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy has been increasingly used to obtain secondary resectability for locally advanced pancreatic cancers. Although most patients require biliary decompression, only a few studies have investigated the safety of biliary stenting with chemoradiotherapy. Herein, we report a rare case of delayed hemorrhage of the hepatic artery caused by biliary stenting after chemoradiotherapy. The serial follow-up CT demonstrated that the biliary stent was approaching the right hepatic artery and eventually caused acute angulation and indentation. Diagnostic catheter angiography revealed contrast extravasation at the right hepatic artery, and endovascular embolization was performed. This report highlights the relevance of anatomical deformation after chemoradiotherapy, which can result in fatal complications. Indentation of the hepatic artery caused by biliary stents should be recognized as a warning sign of vascular injury.

Severe hemodynamic dysfunction may follow after the closure of the median sternotomy in patients with myocardial edema, cardiac dilatation, and severe postoperative bleeding. In extreme cases, myocardial edema may be so severe that cardiac function is compromised merely by the edges of the open sternum touching the heart. Sternotomy remained open and delayed sternal closure is already described adjunct in complicated cardiac operations. We experi nced a case of delayed sternal closure after 16 hours of CABG using synthes DCP wide plate in a 54-year old obese female patient. Our experience conims that delayed sternal closure Is an effective at simple means of dealing with severe myocardial edema so we report this case with literature review.

Background: Congenital heart surgery may lead to myocardial swelling and hemodynamic instability. Delayed sternal closure may be beneficial in this setting. The purpose of this study was to assess mortality and mediastinal infection rate associated with delayed sternal closure after congenital heart surgery and to evaluate the risk factors which affect mortality and mediastinal infection rate. Material and Method: We retrospectively reviewed 40 patients who underwent delayed sternal closure after repair of congenital heart disease at Yonsei Cardiovascular Hospital, from January 1994 to May 2001. In these patients, we assessed the mortality and mediastinal infection rate, and evaluated their risk factors including operation time, bypass time, aortic cross clamp time, duration to sternal closure and postoperative artificial ventilation time. Mediastinal infection was defined to have positive culture in mediastinum. Result: Hemodynamic instability was the most common indication for delayed sternal closure(n=36) and other indications included postoperative bleeding(n=2) and conduit compression(n=2). The median age at operation was $14.4{\pm}33.4$months old(range, 2days-12years). The patients with postoperative bleeding and conduit compression were much older than the others. The sternum was left open for $4.5{\pm}3.4$ days(range, 1-20days). Overall mortality was 25%(10/40) and mediastinal infection occured in 24.3%(9/37) (3 patients were excluded in mediastinal infection for early death). In risk factor analyses, only aortic cross clamp time had statistical significance for mortality in univariate analyses. However, multivariate analyses revealed that there were no significant predictors for risk of mortality and mediastinal infection. Conclusion: Delayed sternal closure after repair of congenital cardiac disease had relatively high mortality and mediastinal infection rate. But, in patients with hemodynamic instability, postoperative bleeding and conduit compression after repair of congenital cardiac disease, delayed sternal closure may be an effective life saving method.

A subcapsular liver hematoma (SLH) is a relatively common lesion in fetuses and neonates. Although an SLH ruptures rarely, it may be life threatening. We report on a term neonate with a delayed rupture of an SLH that occurred on day 7 of life. The infant had been resuscitated with intubation, positive pressure ventilation, and chest compression at birth because of meconium-associated perinatal depression. The SLH was diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography and paracentesis, and the ruptured SLH was treated operatively. After intensive medical and surgical management, the infant was discharged healthy on day 27 of life. A newborn infant presenting with the sudden onset of extreme shock and pallor associated with abdominal distension should undergo differential diagnosis for SLH and a clinical evaluation concurrent with fluid resuscitation and timely surgery.
