Angioneurotic edema is rarely seen in dental practice and manifested by acute attacks of swelling of the extremities, face, airway, or abdominal visera, occuring spontaneously and suddenly or secondary to trauma. Two types are recognized : hereditary and nonhereditary. Prophylatic therapy may be used by fresh frozen plasma or antifibrinolytic agents in hereditary type. Good supportive care for acute attacks, together with a knowledge of course of the disease, can prevent asphyxiation from airway obstruction. A case of acute angioneurotic edema of the facial area in a 19-year-old man is presented in conjunction with a review of the literature. Angioneurotic edema attacks him acutely after the extraction of the lower, right 3rd molar.

50세 남자환자가 교통사고로 인한 경부부종을 주소로 응급실에 내원하였다. 경부 컴퓨터 당층촬영에서 갑상연골골절에 의한 기관열상으로 경부에 광범위한 피하기종이 생긴 것으로 진단되었다. 환자는 보존적 치료후 완전한 증상의 소실을 보였다. 갑상연골골절은 드문 외상이며 이에 의한 기관열상은 보고된 바 없다. 이에 저자들은 갑상연골골절에 의한 기관열상으로 경부에 광범위한 피하기종이 발생된 환자를 치험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

The assessment method of human body composion by bioelectrical impedance is very simple, safe, rapid and noninvasive. Based on prediction formulas for total body water from bioelectrical impedance, the observed weight loss should be associated with an increase in impedance. However in edematous patients for dialysis, the calculated total body water loss as calculated from impedance were overestimated and significantly higher than the weight loss after dialysis. So determination of impedance were made in 50 edematous patients before, during and after dialysis. Mean weight loss, which was assumed to be only loss of water was 1719$\pm$ 866 gr and mean impedance change was 71.0 $\pm$ 23.0 Ohm under 50kHz. Body weight loss was highly correlated [r>0.81 with the increase in body impedance under variable frequencies[1, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 kHz . But there were no differences between frequences. In conclusion, clinical application of bioelectrical impedance method is useful for individual edematous patients with new correlation equation[Y=230+26.8X, X;Impedance change, Y;Calculated total body water loss .

폐부종은 심인성, 혹은 비심인성 요인에 의해 발생한다. 심인성폐부종(Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema, CPE)은 심질환, 좌심방 압력의 증가, 폐정맥과 폐모세혈관의 압력 증가와 관련있다. 이와는 대조적으로 비심인성 폐부종(Noncardiogenic Pulmonary Edema, NCPE)은 좌심방의 압력증가에 의해서 혹은 기저질환인 심장 질환과 관련없이 발생한 국소적인 정수압의 증가하여 발생하거나, 폐포나 모세혈관내 피표면의 투과도의 변화에 의해서 발생한다. 혹은 국소적인 정수압 및 투과도의 복합적인 변화 모두에 의하여 발생한다. NCPE의 환축을 적절하게 치료하기 위하여 CPE와 반드시 감별되어야 한다. 또한, 심인성 및 NCPE의 감별 및 적절한 처치를 위하여는 철저한 환축의 병력, 신체검사, 흉부방사선 촬영 등의 검사를 실시하여야 한다. NCPE는 원발요인과 치료반응에 따라 예후가 달라질 수 있다.

The anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions of Cedrela sinensis, Oenanthe javanica and ARtemisia princeps var. orientalis were carried out. The methanolic extract of Artemisia princeps var. orientalis showed the inhibitory effect on carrageenin-induced edema as well as vascular permeability in mice. And we also found the alagesic activity in these plants.

We report a case of a resection of very large intracavitary metastatic malanoma causing obstruction of the right ventricular inflow and outflow tract of the heart. A 49-year-old woman with dyspnea and generalized edema was seen. Echocardiography reveal an intra cavitary mass occupying the entire right ventricle and pericardial effusion. The lesion was palliatively resected using a cardiopulmonary bypass and was confirmed as a malignant melanoma. The patient is alive and improved symptomatically 30days after the operation.

11-year-old neutered male dog was presented with paralysis with decreased postural reaction in the bilateral pelvic limbs. On MRI and CT, the spinal cord from T13 had a slightly swollen area and lost the central canal. A well circumscribed mass was observed at anterior of a right kidney and invaded the spinal canal through the pleura without the fusion and destruction of the spines. Hemilaminectomy was performed to identify the mass pathohistologically and decompress the spinal cord. The mass was diagnosed as hemangiosarcoma. The dog had showed neither progressive neurologic disorders nor improvement and passed away 58 days after the surgery.

Congenital interruption of the inferior vena cava (IVC) can lead to secondary hepatic congestion, portal hypertension, and liver cirrhosis. A 49-year-old woman was admitted to the gynecology department with symptoms of menorrhalgia, known uterine myoma, and anemia. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and venography performed at our hospital revealed congenital interruption of the IVC. The patient underwent retrohepatic cavoatrial bypass surgery with a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) 16-mm ringed graft via posterolateral thoracotomy, and recovered without major complications. A retroperitoneal approach via posterolateral thoracotomy provides appropriate visualization during dorsal cavoatrial bypass in treating patients with congenital interruption of IVC.

Lymphangioma is a rare, benign, and hamartomatous tumor of the lymphatic vessels that shows a marked predilection for the head and neck region. When this tumor occurs on the tongue or mouth floor or in the deep neck space, blockage of the efferent lymphatic vessels can result in secondary macroglossia. We report here two patients who showed unusual macroglossia from birth. Initially, there was no noticeable cervical or mandibular swelling. However, mandibular swellings were noted during follow-up examinations, which led to MRI scans on the two infant patients at 5 months and 5 weeks of age, respectively. Subsequently, both patients were diagnosed with lymphangioma or lymphangiohemangioma in the deep neck space.

Since the entity of postmastectomy lymphangiosarcoma was first reported by Stewart and Treves in 1948, postmastectomy lymphangiosarcoma has become a well recognized, uncommon malignant tumor which occurs in the upper extremity following mastectomy for mammary carcinoma. The postmastectomy lymphangiosarcoma occurred at an average age of 63.9 years and at an average of 10 years and 3 months following mastectomy. The lymphangiosarcoma raised from blood and lymphatic vessel. The histologic appearance has been observed edematous dermiss and dilated lymphatics lining with malignant cells. Most authors recommend radical amputation for treatment, either shoulder disarticulation or forequarter amputation. Other modalities of treatment including radiotherapy were considered as ineffetive. The present report provides a case of the regression of postmastectomy lymphangiosarcoma with chronic lymphedema by external irradiation. Radiation therapy was used as primary therapy. Total tumor dose of 6500 cGy in 9 wks was delivered using 6 MV x-ray and 8 MeV electron.
