Although autoclaved autogenous bone reconstruction is one of the established procedures, it may have some problems in bone regeneration and mechanical property. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of more biologic and anatomical reconstruction where allograft is not readily available. From Aug.1991 to Feb. 1996 the authors analyzed 32 cases of reconstruction with autogenous low heat treated bone. Autogenous graft sites were humerus 4, tibia 4, pelvis 9, and 15 femur. Average follow-up period was 23(range;12-51) months. There were 49 graft-host junctional sites. Diaphysis was 22, metaphysis 10, and flat bone 17. Average duration of healing for the 38 united sites was 7 months. Average union time for each anatomical area 8 months in 19 diaphysis, 12 months in 7 metaphysis, and 12.7 months in 12 flat bone(pelvis). Eleven nonunion sites consisted of 3 diaphysis(3/22), 3 metaphysis(3/10), and 5 flat bone(5/17). Complications other than nonunion were local recurrence(4), bone resorption(3), graft fracture(2), osteomyelitis(1), metal failure(2), and wound infection(1). Initial bone quality and stable fixation technique was important for union rate. Plate and screw is a good method for diaphyseal lesion. Metaphyseal and flat bone are weak area for rigid fixation and one stage augmentation with iliac bone graft can be a salvage procedure.

본 연구는 원발성 악성 골종양의 감별진단에 대한 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP 골스캔의 임상적인 유용성을 알아보기 위해 시행하였다. 골조직검사로 원발성 악성골종양으로 진단받았고 골조직검사 전에 $^{99m}Tc$-MDP 골스캔을 하였던 골육종 22예, 연골 육종 5예, 유잉 육종 4예의 총 31예의 환자들을 대상으로 각각의 악성골종양의 공통적인 소견을 관찰하여 이를 방사선학적 검사와 비교하였고, 골육종에서는 조직학적인 간질조직의 형성에 따라 골아세포성, 연골아세포성, 섬유아세포성, 모세혈관 확장성으로 분류하여 골스캔소견과 비교하였다. 골육종에서 공통적인 소견은 강한 방사능 섭취와 동반된 내부의 불규칙한 방사능감소와 골윤곽의 심한 변형으로 22예 중 16예에서 나타났고 조직학적 분류에 따른 차이점은 발견할 수 없었다. 연골 육종에서 공통적인 소견은 정상보다는 증가되었지만 천장관절보다 약한 방사능섭취와 내부의 불규칙한 방사능증가, 비교적 잘 유지된 골윤곽으로 5예중 3예에서 관찰되었다. 유잉 육종에서 공통적인 소견은 천장관절보다 높은 방사능 섭취와 내부의 균일한 방사능 분포, 중등도의 골윤곽 변형으로 4예중 3예에서 관찰되었다. 결론적으로 악성골종양 3예에서 각각 특징적 소견을 나타내는 경향이 있고 환자의 임상적 정보와 방사선학적 소견을 참고하면 감별진단에 도움이 되었다. 그러므로 이에 대한 관심을 갖고 판독하는 것이 중요하다고 생각된다.

The cytokines are the hormone-like proteins, which are produced in the mononuclear cells. They have many roles, such as immune mediators, cell differentiations, angiogenesis. The chemokines have chemotactic effects which control the host immune response. There were few reports about the cytokines associated with musculoskeletal tumors. From late 1980s, the cytokine studies of bone tumors such as osteosarcoma were started, but most studies for benign and malignant musculoskeletal tumors were left to be explored. To evaluate the characteristics of the cytokines in variable musculoskeletal tumors, tissues were obtained from the seven patients who visited the Yeungnam University hospital from February to July 2000. They were lipoma (1 case), parosteal osteoma (1 case), enchondroma (2 cases), pigmented villonodular synovitis (1 case), ganglion (1 case), and metastaic squamous cell carcinoma (1 case). The gene experession of the cytokines were analyzed by RNase protection assay (RPA) and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The lipoma and parosteal osteoma expressed MIP-$1{\beta}$, and IP-10 genes. The two enchondromas showed different results, one expressed all of MIP-$1{\alpha}$, MIP-$1{\beta}$ and IP-10 genes but the other expressed none of above. The pigmented villonodular synovitis strongly expressed MIP-$1{\alpha}$ and IP-10 when compared with the other cases. The ganglion did not express all of the chemokines mentioned above. And the metastatic squamous cell carcinoma expressed all of the chemokines and especially IP-10 was highly expressed. Even though this study has only a few cases, these results provide a basis for the cytokine mediating network study in musculoskeletal tumors.

Osteoblastoma is a relatively rare benign bone tumor representing less than 1% of all bone tumors. The tumor usually involves the spine and sacrum of young individuals, less than 10% being localized to the skull, and nearly half of these affect the mandible, especially the posterior segments. In clinical finding, osteoblastoma present mainly with pain, swelling, and expansion of bone cortex. Radiographic appearances are variable, but frequently a well-delineated radiolucent lesion containing varying amounts of mineral deposits is seen. Histologically, ostoeblastoma is consists of irregular trabeculeae of osteoid and immature bone present within highly vascular connective tissue matrix. Osteoblastoma must be differentiated from a number of bone-producing lesions, including osteoid osteoma, fibrous dysplasia, ossifying fibroma, fibrous dysplasia, and osteosarcoma. If diagnosis may be mistaken for osteosarcoma, there are risks of more aggressive and irreversible treatment. Differential diagnosis of osteoblastoma is important. The preferred treatment of osteoblastoma is conservative approach and surgical excision. Recurrence following surgical intervention is rare. We treated osteoblastoma located in premolar area of mandible by excision with preservation of vital structure, such as nerves and teeth. So we report our clinical treatment with literature review

Typical transcranial approaches are insufficient for adequate visualization and resection of skull base tumors. Different approaches with multiple modifications have been attempted. Here, we describe a new approach for a lesion that is central and hard to treat by conventional craniotomy and successful reconstruction with calvarial bone graft and titanium mesh plate. A 69-year-old female patient presented with recurrent meningioma. The tumor had invaded the frontal lobe, right supraorbital rim, and ethmoidal bone. We performed a modified anterior craniofacial approach that fully exposed the tumor and invaded bone. In consideration of the patient's age and cosmetic result, the tumor and invaded bone was resected and the defect area was reconstructed with titanium mesh and calvarial bone graft. At 6 months postoperative the patient had no complications and was satisfied with the esthetic result. We report this case to demonstrate the successful approach and reconstruction using this technique.

Sinonasal malignant tumors comprise less than 1% of all cancers and 3% of all malignant tumors of the head and neck, which explains a lack of large series addressing the clinical characteristics and management of these tumors. Neck node metastasis occurs in only about 7% to 15% of malignant tumors compared with other head and neck cancers. A 90-yr-old woman presented with left palpable neck mass and right nasal mass occupying nasal cavity. Fine needle aspiration biopsy of left neck mass results in metastatic squamous cell carcinoma(SCC). PET/CT shows intense FDG uptake in right nasal cavity with bone invasion. Histopathologic examination of excised lesion in the right nasal cavity revealed SCC. We report here on a primary sinonasal SCC with contralateral lymph node metastasis.

목적: STAT3는 주요 세포 진행과정을 조절하는 암유전자로, 활성화되면 여러 악성종양의 생물학적, 임상적 특징과 연관된다고 알려져 있고, 한편 배아줄기세포와 연관된 유전자이기도 하다. 본 연구에서는 연골종양의 발생에 STAT3 활성화가 관여하는지 살펴보았다. 대상 및 방법: 총 33예의 각종 양성 및 악성 연골종양에서 STAT3 활성화를 살펴보기 위해 활성화된 $pSTAT3^{tyr705}$에 특이한 단클론성 항체를 이용한 면역조직화학법을 시행하였다. 결과: 통상적인 연골육종 17예 중, 조직학적 등급 3의 연골육종은 3예(50%)에서 pSTAT3에 양성이었고, 등급 1 및 2 연골육종은 모두 음성이었다. 즉 pSTAT3 양성도는 조직학적 등급과 통계학적으로 유의한 상관관계(p=0.0432)를 나타내었다. 또한 투명세포 연골육종 2예(50%)도 pSTAT3에 양성이었다. 내연골종, 연골모세포종, 연골점액양섬유종 등 12예의 양성 연골종양 중 6예(50%)에서 pSTAT3가 관찰되었다. 결론: STAT3 활성화는 통상적인 연골육종 중 고도의 조직학적 분화도가 나쁜 등급에서 주로 발견된다. 배아줄기세포 표지자인 STAT3가 양성 및 악성 연골종양 일부에서 활성화되는 것으로 미루어보아 연골 기원 종양에서도 악성종양의 줄기세포 가설을 제안할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to introduce rotation-plasty procedure and prosthetic ambulation training. The recent development of chemotherapy and diagnostic facility have permitted the orthopaedic surgeons to try limb saving procedures rather than amputations for the treatment of the malignant bone tumors. If the tumors around the knee joint were treated by mid-thigh amputation or hip disarticulation, it would impose the client with a great handicap for rehabilitation. Rotation-plasty procedure was first done by Borggreve, in 1930 for the congenital short femur. Recently this procedure was used a malignant bone tumor at the distal femur by Kotz and Salzer in 1982. In spite of its cosmetic problem of the distal stump, this procedure has the great functional advantage of converting the above-knee amputation to the below-knee amputation. The inverted foot was also good to control the prosthesis as a below-knee stump and heel functioned as a patella to support the body weight. This 15 years old girl case was had rotation-plasty due to osteosarcoma of the distal femur with 3rd postoperative chemotherapy, and admitted to Yonsei rehabilitation hospital for prosthetic ambulation training. Then, the case had excellent functional results of prosthetic ambulation training with rotaion-plasty after 3 months.
