심장 횡문근종은 영아나 소아기에서 가장 발생빈도가 높은 원발성 심장종양으로서 결절성 경화증을 빈번히 동반하고, 자연 퇴화가 보고된다 할지라도 좌심실 유출로 폐쇄를 동반한 종양은 아직까지는 예후가 불량하고 수술적 치료가 적응이 된다. 생후 4 일된 신생아가 청색증과 빈 호흡을 주소로 내원하여 생후 4일째에 정중흉골절개를 통한 체외 순환하에 수술을 시행하여 좌심실 유출로를 막고있는 0.7$\times$0.9$\times$0.4cm크기의 종괴를 제거하였다. 수술 후 합병증은 발생하지 않았으며 수술후 14일째에 건강하게 퇴원하였다.

People with somatoform disorder have a number of different symptoms that typically last for several years. Their symptoms can't be traced to a specific physical cause. In people with somatoform disorder, medical test results are either normal or don't explain the person's symptoms. The symptoms of somatoform disorder are similar to the symptoms of other illnesses. People with this disorder may have several medical evaluations and tests to be sure that they don't have another illness. In this case, we described a 56-year old man who was diagnosed as R/O) ALS, because he has many similar symptoms of ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) such as gait disturbance, dysarthria, dyspnea. But we diagnosed his case as somatoform disorder and treated with herbal medication, acupuncure treatment ,negative cupping and relaxation training. Through these treatment, the patient showed improvement of chief complains and accessory symptoms.

Purpose: This study was conducted in order to determine the changes in pain and breathing function when kinesio taping is applied to patients with myofacial trigger points on sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. Methods: The subjects were 25 males and females aged 20 to 30 years (male 10, female 15). They were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group to be applied with kinesio taping. Kinesio taping was applied to SCM muscle three times per week for two weeks. Pain triggered when the taut band or nodule was palpated was measured. Pain intensity was measured using the visual analog scale (VAS). The breathing function was measured using forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and FEV1/FVC ratio. In all subjects, VAS, breathing function was measured before and after intervention. Results: In the experimental group, pain in the SCM was relieved as VAS showed a significant decrease and FVC, FEV1, and FEV1/FVC ratio showed a significant increase. Comparison between the groups, showed significant differences in VAS and the FVC, FEV1, and FEV1/FVC ratio. Conclusion: These results suggest that myofascial pain on SCM muscle is thought a factor that affects the breathing function.

Purpose: Forward head posture is a typical symptom in people who use computers for long periods of time. Respiration is a complex function involving co-operation of muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems. Abnormal posture can have a negative effect on respiratory function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between forward head posture and respiratory function in young adults. Methods: Forty-six healthy subjects participated in this study. Craniovertebral angle was measured for assessment of the forward head posture. The respiratory function of all subjects was evaluated by measuring forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1), forced expiratory volume at one second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) ratio, and peak expiratory flow (PEF). The baseline of forward head posture was less than 49 degrees. Results: : Significant differences for predicted FVC and FEV1 were observed between the two groups, however, no statistically significant differences in FEV1/FVC ratio and PEF were observed between the two groups. Conclusion: Results of this study demonstrate that forward head posture has a negative effect on respiratory function in young adults.

원발성 폐동맥 육종은 드물며, 흔히 폐동맥 색전증으로 오진하기 쉽다. 예후는 매우 좋지않아서 치료하지 않았을 때의 생존율이 약 1.5개월이며,수술후에도 생존율을 일년정도까지 연장할 수있다. 본 교실에서는 원발성 폐동맥 육종을 1례 치험하였기에 보고하고자 한다. 환자는 55세 여자로 주증상은 호흡곤란, 우측흉통, 및 객혈이었다. 술전 흉부 전산화단층촬영상 폐동맥 색전증과 유사한 종괴음영을 나타내었다. 수술은 부분 체외순환하에 폐동맥 성형술과 우측전폐 절제술이 시행되었다. 술후 조직학적 진단은 미분화 육종이었고, 증상은 다소 호전되었으나 술후 3개월에 원인 미상으로 사망하였다.

총폐정맥환류이상증은 모든 폐정 맥혈이 좌심방 대신 직간접적으로 우심방으로 환류되는 선천성 심기 형으로 떼 내에 수술을 시 행치 않을 경우 80%의 높은 사망율을 나타내는 질환이다. 1984년 5월부터 1995년 5월까지 7례의 총폐정맥환류이상증에 대한 교정수술을 시행하였다. 환자의 연령분포는 15일부터 11세 까지로 평균 연령은 27.1개 월이 었다. 남녀 비는 남자가 5례, 여자가 2례 였다. 형태는 심장상부형이 5례, 심장형이 2례였다. 5례는 통상적인 체외순환하에서 수술하였고2례의 경우 초저 체온 및 완전혈류차단하에서 수술하였다 술후 합병증은 호흡부전 1례, 부정맥 2례, 창상감염이 1례 있었다. 수술사망은 2례 였으며 생존자들은 외래 추적 조사상 특이 증상없이 잘 지내고 있다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report on the improvement of respiratory function of a fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy patient after receiving Korean medical treatment. Methods : This study was carried out on a 60 year-old male patient who suffered from fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. While we carried out Korean medical treatment, we observed $EtCO_2$ (end-tidal carbon dioxide), Vte (exhaled tidal volume) and PIP (peak inspiratory pressure). Results : $EtCO_2$ count decreased from 34 mmHg to 24 mmHg during the treatment period, and PIP count became stable. Vte count also did not worsen in this study. Conclusions : Based on this study, we concluded that Korean medical treatment could be effective in treating fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy patients with respiratory failure.

The etiology of the obstructive sleep apnea includes the various factors such as anatomical abnormality in upper airway, craniofacial structure, obesity and personal habit. To establish reasonable treatment plan, multi-department approach is should be emphasized because the treatment modality is depend on the result of analysis for degree & site of obstruction and various behavioral factors. In Sleep Clinic in Keimyung University Medical Center, the standard of care for sleep apnea patient was established according to the Standard of practice committee of Americal Sleep Disorders Association. After one year experience of comprehensive approach for sleep apnea we could achieve following recommendation for the treatment. 1) The multi-department examination and diagnosis could prevent unnessesary treatment because the treatment plan could be established under comprehensive discussion. 2) Determination of the site of obstruction is important for treatment planning. However, no single determinant could be found. We expect multi-department approach can reduce the mistake in detection of obstruction. 3) Further evaluation of treatmet outcome should be succeeded to establish Korean standard of care for sleep apnea treatment.

Chronic tic disorder or Tourette syndrome is known to be a chronic neuro-behavioral disease for which cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies have recently been introduced. Here, we report the effectiveness of CBT in a case of childhood chronic tic disorder, which is very common in clinical settings. The DSM-IV clinical diagnosis was applied by a child psychiatrist. The Yale Global Tic Severity Scale, Kovac's children's depression inventory, Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Abbreviated Conners' Rating Scales, and the Dupaul ADHD Rating Scales were used. This case involved a pharmacological treatment-refractory patient over the previous year. Thus, psychiatric consultation was undertaken. Subsequently, we administered five sessions of CBT for four weeks, consisting of symptom evaluation and planning, habit reversal training, and ventilation training. Following four weeks of CBT administration, there were improvements in the scores of the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale and the Clinical Global Improvement scale. Our observations indicate that CBT may be effective in the treatment of childhood tic disorder.

저자들은 양측 폐상엽 국균증으로부터 유발된 객혈 1 례를 경험하였다. 환자는 66세 남자로 간헐적으로 재발된 객혈을 가진 환자로 다량의 객혈로 전원되어 X-ray 검사상 양측 상엽에 공동과 진균구를 관찰되었다. 환자는 불량한 전신상태와 호흡기능을 가져 술후 합병증을 최대한 예방하기 위해 정중 흉골절개에 의한 동시 절제보다는 순차적 절제를 계획해 우측병변을 먼저 절제하고 후에 좌측병변을 절제하였다. 조직 검사상 폐결핵성 병변은 없는 폐국균증으로 확진되고 큰 합병증 없이 회복되어 외래 추적치료중이며 객혈이나 진균증의 재발소견은 없었다.
