후두협착증은 그동안 여러 치료방법에도 불구하고 이비인후과영역에서 가장 어려운 문제 중의 하나로 남아 있다. 1979년 McGee등이 후두 및 기관협착증에 처음으로 $CO_2$ laser를 사용한 이래 미세현미경술과 조화되어 후두의 상흔 및 육아조직을 제거하는 정교하고, 쉽고, 지혈이 우수한 방법으로 대두되고 있다. 또한, 주기적인 후두 및 기관확장술, 국소 steroid주입법, stenting등의 보조요법과 병행하여 사용될 때 개방성형술의 빈도를 훨씬 줄일 수 있다. 최근 저자들의 상흔성 비후에 의한 후두협착 환자에서 $CO_2$ laser를 사용하여 협착을 제거하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

The efficacy of several pulpotomy methods were evaluated histologically on animal model using 6 beagles. At 1, 4, 6 weeks after pulpotomy, animals were sacrificed by perfusion method, Histomorphometric analysis was performed using computerized image analyzing system. Statistical comparisons were done using SPSS program. The following results were obtained: 1. Tissue responses after ferric sulfate treatment mainly consisted of fibrous surface layer with the underneath pulpal tissue layer containing well-preserved odontoblasts. 2. Bleeding, fibrosis and necrosis are the main reactions obsereved in electrosurgical pulpotomy and the normal pulpal tissues were limited to the apical portion. 3. In the aspect of preserving the normal pulpal tissue, ferric sulfate pulpotomy was evaluated to be superior to formocresol or electrosurgical pulpotomy.

In the extremity surgery, pneumatic tourniquet and povidone-iodine solution are commonly used to provide an aseptic, bloodless field, and their complication rate has remained low. However, chemical burn under tourniquet has been rarely reported. Patients sustained burn injuries over the dependent, weight-bearing regions such as posterior neck, back, buttocks and posterior thighs. This rare adverse complication occurred in a 22-year-old man who underwent modified Brostrom operation with arthroscopic os trigonum excision. 10% povidone-iodine was used as topical antiseptic, and full thickness burn occurred underneath the area of tourniquet application. Main causes of povidone-iodine related chemical burn are considered maceration, irritation of the skin, long term use of the tourniquet and pressure. To reduce the complications like chemical burn, awareness of the risk and the possible pathogenesis as well as the preventive measures is important in surgical practice.

Experimental studies were conducted to investigate the hemostatic effect of the water extracts of Kwibitang. For this purpose, the effects of the extracts on the bleeding time in mouse tail and prothrombin time in vitro were estimated. Furthermore, its activity on the isolated uterine muscle in rats were investigated. The results obtained were as following; The bleeding time was not shortened, but the plasma prothrombin time in vitro test was significantly shortened. The uterotonic action produced by the extract was not inhibited by pretreatment of diltiazem at the doses of $10^{-5}g/ml$.

In an attempt to investigate the effect of Beekeumsan on the hemostatic action and isolated uterine muscle, Beekeumsan was administered orally and the bleeding time in mouse tail, prothrombin time in vitro were estimated. Its activity on the isolated uterine muscle in rats were investigated. The following results were obtained; The bleeding time was not shortened, but the plasma prothrombin time in vitro was significantly shortened. The uterotonic action produced by the Beekeumsan was not inhibited by pretreatment of atropine, but was slightly inhibited by cyproheptadine and completely inhibited by pretreatment of diltiazem.

Gamigwaruhaebaekwhanggum-Tang (GGHWT) have been evaluated for antihyperlipidemic effects on experimental hyperlipidemic rats and mice induced by Triton WR-1339, com oil and high cholersterol-diet. Especially, GGHWT is formulated with Trichosanthis Fructus, Pinelliae Tuber, Aurantii Immaturus Fructus, Magnoliae Cortex, Allii Macrostemi Bulbuls, Cinnamomi Ramulus and Scutellariae Radix. Oral administration of GGHWT at 500 mg/kg/day for 3 days significantly inhibited the increase of serum triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol, liver triglyceride in hyperlipidemic rats induced by Triton WR-1339. And, GGHWT significantly inhibited the increase of serum triglyceride in hyperlipidemic rats induced by corn oil. Also, administration of GGHWT (500 mg/kg, once daily for 1 week, p.o.) prevented the increase of serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, liver total cholesterol and triglyceride in 1% cholesterol-diet fed mice. These results suggest that GGHWT is effective for the treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Existing oceanographic data indicate that tidal mixing fronts generally prevail in the Eastern Yellow Sea along the Korean coast. In the Western part, these fronts seem to be much weaker. These fronts are believed to be generated mostly by spatially different tidal mixing. The geostrophic adjustment model applied to the observed density structure gives the mixed coastal water flowing northward and the offshore waters(both surface warm and bottom cold waters) flowing southward along the Korean coast. The transport of each water amounts to O(10$\^$4/)m$\^$3//sec.

Retroperitoneal hemorrhage is a potentially lethal complication in patients on anticoagulant therapy and can be caused by ovarian artery bleeding, regardless of the patients' age and obstetric history. This case illustrates the clinical presentation of ovarian artery bleeding in a postmenopausal female on anticoagulant therapy, the diagnostic utility of transcatheter angiography, and successful embolization.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of water-soluble sulfated ${\beta}$-glucan (SBG) obtained from Ganoderma lucidum mycelia on the antihyperlipidemic and serum lipid levels in high-fat diet-induced obese rats. Five-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a high-fat diet for two weeks to induce obesity. They were ten divided into five groups-normal control diet group (NC), high-fat control diet group (HC), high-fat diet and 200 mg/kg of SBG group (HC-HSBG), high-fat diet and 20 mg/kg of SBG group (HC-LSBG), and high-fat diet and 20 mg/kg of lovastatin group (HC-Lov)-and fed one of five diets for two more weeks. Although food intake and final body weight after four weeks of SBG consumption were similar in the five experimental groups, food efficiency ratio was higher in the high-fat diet groups(2, 3, 4, and 5) than in the NC group. In evaluating the hematological parameters of the rats, the neutrophil and monocyte ratios were higher in the HC-HSBG, HC-LSBG, and HC-Lov groups than in the HC group. Serum lipid profiles were analyzed after a 12 hr fast at the end of the study. Total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were significantly lower in the HC-HSBG and HC-LSBG groups than in the HC group. These results suggest that chemically engineered sulfated mushroom ${\beta}$-glucan (SBG) might contribute to lower cholesterol and lipid levels in blood.

Purpose : This study was performed to know the clinical profile and effectiveness of colonoscopic polypectomy in patients with solitary juvenile polyp. Methods : This study included 19 children, aged 1.8 to 11.4 years, who underwent colonoscopic polypectomy and histologically proven solitary juvenile polyps between March 1998 and August 2002. We analyzed their detailed history, clinical manifestations, colonoscopic examination, method of anesthesia and results of colonoscopic polypectomy. Results : The mean age of the 19 cases was $4.7{\pm}2.8year$. The male to female ratio was 1 : 1.1. Hematochezia, the main indication of colonoscopy, was present in all cases. Combined symptoms were mucoid stool or diarrhea(42%), abdominal pain(26%), constipation(11%) and anal fissure(11%). Anemia(Hb <10 g/dL) in four cases recovered spontaneously after polypectomy. Complications associated with premedication, sedation and colonoscopy itself did not occur. Bleeding developed in two cases(11%) after polypectomy. One of them was controlled with hemoclipping. The main site of polyps was the rectosigmoid colon in 15 cases(79%). The size of the polyps ranged from 0.5 to 3.5 cm. The interval between the onset of symptoms and polypectomy was from 0.1 to 42 months. Conclusion : Juvenile polyps are a common cause of benign, chronic and recurrent rectal bleeding. Colonoscopic polypectomy is a simple, safe and effective therapeutic method. So earlier colonoscopy might avoid uneffective treatment and prevent untoward problems such as fear of parents and anemia.
