Although reports of multiple primary malignant tumors have increased recently, cases of synchronous double primary tumors of lung and liver are rare. A 73-year-old man suffered from chronic cough. His chest x-ray showed segmental atelectasis of the right upper lobe. Bronchoscopy revealed a mass occluding the orifice of the anterior segmental bronchus of the right upper lobe, and a biopsy showed a squamous cell carcinoma. A synchronous hepatic mass was found by ultrasonography. However, F18-FDG-PET showed no evidence of a distant metastasis. The liver biopsy revealed a hepatocellular carcinoma. A right upper lobe lobectomy and a sleeve resection were performed for the lung cancer, and radiofrequency ablation was performed for the hepatocellular carcinoma.

An 8-year-old male red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in Species Restoration Technology Institute of Korea National Park Service (KNPS), revealed nodular growths in its ventro-cervical region. The fox was introduced from Young-Yang Gun in 2012 to KNPS for re-introduction of the red fox. It has been cared in captive facility and showed the mass in August 2013 that was sent to Wildlife Medical Center. For the diagnosis of underlying disease and cervical mass, radiographical and sonographical examinations, complete blood count, serum chemistry analysis, peripheral blood smear examination and surgical removal of the mass were performed. The mass was fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin and processed routinely for haematoxylin and eosin (HE) stain. Based on hematological and serum chemical examination, the fox showed mild leukocytosis, thrombopenia, increase of creatine kinase MB (CKMB) and uric acid. However, it was considered as no clinical relevance since the fox showed no related clinical signs. Macroscopically, the mass was round shape, whitish and well-demarcated. Microscopically, it was diagnosed as a lipoma consisting of mature adipose tissue. Lipoma is a common benign tumor in most domestic animals, however it has never been reported in the red fox. The present case report provides comprehensive diagnosis of a subcutaneous lipoma in a red fox.

기계적 에너지를 전기적 에너지로 변화하는 에너지 변환소자인 압전 세라믹스는 액츄에이터, 변압기, 초음파모터, 초음파 소자 및 각종 센서로 응용되고 있으며, 그 응용분야는 크게 증가하고 있다. 최근 이러한 에너지 변화 소자는 앞으로 도래하는 ubiquitous, 무선 모바일 시대의 휴대용 전자제품, robotics, 항공우주, 자동차, 의료, 건축, MEMS 분야 등의 대체 에너지원으로 응용하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 특히 인간의 동작 등과 같은 일상적인 동작으로 필요한 전력을 얻을 수 있고, 세라믹 소자를 이용하기 때문에 전자노이즈가 발생되지 않을 뿐 아니라 반영구적으로 사용할 수가 있어서, 기존 이차전지, 연료전지를 대체 또는 보완 할 수 있는 방안도 검토되고 있다. PZT계 세라믹스는 높은 유전상수와 압전특성으로 전자세라믹스분야에서 가장 널리 사용되어지고 있지만 $1200^{\circ}C$이상의 높은 소결온도 때문에 $1000^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 급격히 휘발되는 PbO로 인한 환경오염과 기본조성의 변화로 인한 압전 특성의 저하가 문제시되고 있다. 또한, 적층 세라믹스의 제작 시 구조적 특성상 내부 전극이 도포된 상태에서 동시 소결이 필요한데, 융점이 낮은 Ag전극 대신 값비싼 Pd나 Pt가 다량 함유된 Ag/Pd, Ag/Pt 전극이 사용되고 있어 경제적인 문제가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 순수 Ag 전극을 사용하거나, Ag의 비율이 높은 내부 전극을 사용하기 위해서는 $950^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 소결되는 압전 세라믹스를 개발 하는 것이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 압전특성이 우수한 $(Pb_{1-x}Cd_x)\;[(Ni_{1/3}/Nb_{2/3})_{0.25}Zr_{0.35}Ti_{0.4}]O_3$계의 조성을 설계하여, 소결온도를 낮추기 위해서 2단계 하소법을 이용하였다. 분말을 ball milling을 통해 24시간 동안 혼합하였다. 혼합된 분말은 $800^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 동안 하소하였다. 하소한 분말을 72시간 동안 ball milling 하여 최종 분말을 얻었다. 최종 분말에 PVB를 첨가하여 ${\Phi}21$ disk 형태로 성형한 후, $800{\sim}950^{\circ}C$ 소결을 하였다. 최종 분말 및 소결된 시편을 XRD분석을 통하여 상을 확인하였고, SEM을 이용하여 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 전기적 특성을 확인하기 위하여 두께 1mm로 연마한 시편에 Ag 전극을 도포하여 열처리한 후, 분극 처리하였다. 압전특성은 $d_{33}$ 미터로 측정하였고, impedance analyzer를 이용하여 주파수 및 impedance 특성을 측정하였다. 그 결과 $900^{\circ}C$에서 우수한 압전 특성 및 전기적 특성을 확보 할 수 있었다.

An 11-year-old, 2.67 kg female Maltese dog with 3 weeks history of palpable cervical mass near trachea was submitted to a local animal hospital. Radiography and ultrasonography showed radiopaque mass adjacent trachea and vagus nerve. Surgically excised mass was solitary and approximately $3.5{\times}2{\times}0.8cm$ in size. Histopathologically, there were large neoplastic foci admixed with normal thyroid tissues. These neoplastic foci were composed of small to large packets of the neoplastic cells with plasmacytic morphology, and these packets were divided by fine fibrovascular septa. Immunohistochemically, most neoplastic cells in the thyroid mass showed positive reactions for cytokeratin (AE1/AE3), chromogranin A, neuron specific enolase (NSE) and the negative reaction for vimentin. Based on the gross, histopathologic and immunohistochemical characteristics, this dog was diagnosed as medullary thyroid carcinoma.

Purpose : Children with acute colonic diverticulitis(ACD), can be misdiagnosed with acute appendicitis. Methods : We reviewed 15 cases of ACD during five years, from January 1998 to June 2002 retrospectively. Results : Most patients(80%) with ACD in children presented with right lower quadrant pain. The primary diagnosis on admission was mostly acute appendicitis(87%), and all ACD in children occurred in the right colon. Fourteen patients were managed by conservative treatment including antibiotics. A follow-up study was performed in 15 patients. There were symptomatic recurrences in two patients, but no significant complication was noted. The frequency of ACD was 11.7 per 1000 acute appendicitis. Conclusion : ACD in children can mostly be cured by conservative treatment. It is prudent to choose the management through the diagnostic work up, including abdominal sonography and computed tomography, because there was no significant difference of clinical findings between ACD and acute appendicitis.

The tube thickness map of water wall has been measured in a commercial circulating fluidized bed combustor (200 ton steam/hr, $4.97{\times}9.90{\times}28.98m$ height) with ultrasonic method and tube erosion has been discussed. Severe tube erosion took place in the splash region on all waterwalls including wingwalls. Erosion on the lower part of front and rear walls, close to both side walls, was more serious than other places. Erosion of some tubes around the gas exit was found to be noticible. Tube erosion increased on the wingwall as the position of the tube become closer to the center of the combustor crosssection.

A 57-year-old man with dyspnea was transferred to our institution. Echocardiography demonstrated grade III aortic valve regurgitation with a bicuspid aortic valve. The preoperative coronary angiography showed a left single nary artery. Replacement of the aortic valve was performed. Ventricular fibrillation developed during weaning patient of cardiopulmonary bypass after aortotomy repair. An anomalous origin of the coronary arteries is an incidental finding. However, in patients who are undergoing aortic valve replacement, a can significantly complicate the procedure. If this is present, then it is imperative that the clearly identified and the required procedure should be modified to avoid injury to these.

Ovarian cysts are the most common cystic abdominal masses in female newborns. It is believed to be derived from an overstimulation of the ovarian follicles by maternal, placental, and fetal hormones. Although most ovarian cysts resolve spontaneously, surgical management is mandatory for life-threatening, complicated cases, including torsion, intracystic hemorrhage, and rupture of the cyst. Rupture of ovarian cysts is thought to be exceedingly rare, but can lead to severe hemorrhagic ascites or peritonitis. We managed a case of a ruptured ovarian cyst in a female newborn who presented with mild abdominal distension and two episodes of gross hematuria. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a right ovarian cyst with torsion and rupture. She was successfully treated with a right salpingo- oophorectomy with no sequelae.

도시지역의 우수유출해석 모형인 SWMM 모형의 매개변수는 유역유출관련 매개변수와 우수관로 매개변수로 구분이 된다. 이중 우수관로내 수리거동에 영향을 대표적인 매개변수는 조도계수가 있다. 우수관로 조도계수는 우수관로의 규격 및 재료에 따라 적용범위가 제시되어 있지만 현상태 관로내 퇴적 및 협잡물 등에 의한 조도변화가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우수관로 조도계수의 변화에 따른 유량의 민감도를 검토하고 모니터링 유량과 비교를 통한 연구 대상지역의 최적 조도계수를 선정하였다. 연구 대상지역은 울산광역시 삼호동 일대이며 대상지역 내 발생한 우수유출은 최종적으로 태화강으로 방류되는 구조를 갖고 있는 배수분구이다. 조도계수 민감도 분석에 적용한 조도계수의 범위는 일반적인 원형 우수관로의 조도계수 0.013을 기준으로 하고 0.002씩 증감을 시켜 총 6개 CASE에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 모의 유량의 비교군이 되는 관측 유량의 경우는 초음파 유량계로 관측한 총 3개 지점의 유량자료를 이용하여 민감도 분석에 활용하였다. 조도계수 민감도 분석결과 조도계수 증가에 따라 첨두유량은 감소하게 된다. 각 지점별 첨두유량 변화 폭은 지점 4, 5, 6에 각각 7.0% (-3.4~3.6%), 14.3% (-7.5~6.8%), 15.6% (-7.7~7.9%) 증감 폭을 갖는 것으로 분석되었으며, 유역의 하류부로 갈수록 변동 폭이 커지는 것으로 분석되었다. 시계열 수문곡선 비교결과 지점 4에서는 조도계수 0.011, 지점 5는 0.013, 지점 7은 0.015를 적용하는 것이 실측치와의 상관계수가 가장 높게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 이상의 분석 결과를 토대로 유역의 관 흐름 상태의 변화는 관로의 퇴적, 부유물, 폐유부착 등의 유지관리 상태에 따라 달라지며 특히 유역의 하류부로 갈수록 퇴적, 부유물 등의 축척이 누적되어 조도계수를 상류부 보다 기준 값보다 크게 적용해야 관측치 유량과 유사하게 모의되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 도시유출해석 모형에서의 조도계수 적용은 우수관로의 유지관리 상태 등을 고려하여 우수관로별 적용 값 다르게 입력하는 것이 타당한 것으로 판단된다.
