The trained examiner can gain considerable information from visual inspections of the elbow joint, Because much of the joint is subcutaneous, any appreciable alteration in the skeletal anatomy often is detectable. Gross soft tissue swelling or muscle atrophy is also early observed. Inspection and palpation of the medial and lateral epicondyles and the tip of the otecranon from an equilateral triangle with the elbow is flexed. Normally, the arc of flexion extension, although variable, ranges from about O to 140 degrees plus or minus 10 degrees. The posterolateral rotatory instability(PLRI) of the elbow is most common pattern of elbow instability. The lateral collateral ligament complex also includes a narrow but stout band of ligamentous tissue blending with the distal and proterior fibers of the capsule to insert distally on the crista supinatoris of the ulna. This is the lateral ulnar collateral ligament(LUCL). A clinical elbow pivot shift test confirms the PLRI. There are also two active apprehension signs.

The aim of this study was to analyze various data of 120 non-submerged ITI implants placed in 64 korean adults. The data were retrieved from patients' charts and registered in the computer and coded for a statistical analysis. The results revealed that the most common type of edentulism was a distal extension case, and the largest number of implants were placed in the mandibular first molar position. Implants were placed more frequently in mandibular, posterior position than maxillary, anterior position, respectively. With respect to the implant diameter and length, an implant with 4.1mm in diameter and more than 10mm in length was the most common. Since a molar position was the most prevalent position for implant placement in korean patients, clinicians should be careful about implant diameter which can resist a strong occlusal force expected in the molar position. In addition, the distance to the mandibular canal and the floor of maxillary sinus should be considered to avoid possible damages, such as nerve injury and sinus perforation in selecting a proper implant length.

Though esophageal cancer was not a common disease, early metastasis and direct extension to adjacent organ were important on the treatment of disease. Therefore, palliative operation was often useful in advanced esophageal cancer. Between June 1985 through July 1985, we treated three cases of inoperable esophageal cancer with Celestin`s endo-esophageal tube by esophageal intubation. Three operations were done under general anesthesia. Celestin`s tube were inserted via oral cavity and additional traction on stomach were applied. After complete insertion of tube was done, the distal end of Celestin`s tube was modified in length. Also stay suture was applied between tube and stomach wall was applied. Postoperative esophagogram revealed good esophageal patency through Celestin`s tube. Clinically, swallowing difficulty was much improved after operation.

Lateral arm flap has been used for the reconstruction of the various defects in hand, head and neck region. This flap is highly dependable as a free flap because of its thin flap thickness, constant vascular anatomy and possibility of osteocutaneous flap and fascial flap. Recently, many authors tried extended approach for vascular pedicle and distal flap extension for bigger defects. In this study, we review previous articles and 14 cases used lateral arm flaps for coverage of the varying defect on head and neck, upper and lower extremities succesfully. In conclusion, lateral arm flap has constant anatomical structure and can overcome the disadvantages such as short pedicle length and limited flap size, then the range of its application can be very widened.

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the main procedure in carotid surgery, as well as the most frequent vascular procedure. Two techniques of CEA are available : eversion and conventional plus patch angioplasty. Eversion CEA is anatomic procedure that reduces ischemic and total operative time. Simultaneous correction of the joined carotid kinking and coiling is possible, easy and safe, while the usage of patch is excluded. Thanks to oblique shape of anastomosis, eversion CEA is associated with low risk of long-term restenosis. The false anastomotic aneurysms occurrence is very rare, almost impossible after eversion CEA. However, the usage of carotid shunt during eversion CEA is not always simple, while proximal or distal extension of the carotid plaque can make eversion CEA more difficult and risky. Eversion CEA should be the first choice in carotid surgery. Conventional CEA is indicated in cases when carotid plaque is extended more than usual, as well as, if the usage of carotid shunt is necessary.

There are many kinds of maintenance care services for removable denture patient. Adjustment of the denture base and occlusion should be performed regularly not only for pain relief but also for maintaining the denture function. Direct and indirect relining are needed frequently in specific cases including mandibular distal extension case or non-symmetric residual teeth situation. Surface treatments for metal and resin are essential in the relining procedure. Clinical process for the denture repair is similar to indirect relining which needs inter-occlusal registration. Especially, the peridontal maintenance care and caries prevention are most important way to preserve the abutment teeth in partial edentulism. Moreover, the caring method for the denture and the tissue should be instructed to the denture patient.

The potential physiological role and technological application of the premature termination of DNA polymerization through the off-switch of exo+ polymerases were studied using 3' phosphorothioate-modified or unmodified primers with single base mismatch distal to the 3' terminus. With exonuclease-digestible unmodified primers, a gradient premature termination of DNA polymerization was observed when amplified with exo+ polymerases. With 3' allele specific phosphorothioate-modified primers, an efficient off-switch effect occurred in the discrimination of a single nucleotide polymorphism when directly using genomic DNA. Clearly, the off-switch of exo+ polymerases is useful in biomedical research.

Dissecting aortic aneurysm is a disease which is characterized by hemorrhagic intramural seperation of aortic wall and extension for varlng distances proximally, distally, or both from the site of the intimal tear. Most aortas show some type of medial degeneration most commonly described as cystic medial necrosis. DeBackey classified this disease according to involved aorta and site of intimal tear to 3 basic types, such as type I, II and III. Type III is defined that dissecting process arrises in the descending thoracic aorta just distal to origin of the left subclavian artery and extends distally for a varing distance. We expirienced a case of dissecting aneurysm, type III of DeBackey's classification which dissecting process is limited to the descending thoracic aorta in the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Kyungpook National University Hospital. This patient was 40 year old woman and she had suffered from intermittent sharp back pain for 3 years .before admission. Excision of the aneurysm and Dacron graft were placed successfully under the left atrio-femoral bypass with artificial pump. The hospital course was uneventful.

The incidence of esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer has been significantly increasing in Western countries. Appropriate planning for surgical therapy requires a reliable classification of EGJ cancers with respect to their exact location. Clinically, the most accepted classification of EGJ cancers is "adenocarcinoma of the EGJ" (AEG or "Siewert"), which divides tumor center localization into AEG type I (distal esophagus), AEG type II ("true junction"), and AEG type III (subcardial stomach). Treatment strategies in western countries routinely employ perioperative chemotherapy or neoadjuvant chemoradiation for cases of locally advanced cancers. The standard surgical treatment strategies are esophagectomy for AEG type I and gastrectomy for AEG type III cancers. For "true junctional cancers," i.e., AEG type II, whether the extension of resection in the oral or aboral direction represents the most effective surgical therapy remains debatable. This article reviews the history of surgical EGJ cancer treatment and current surgical strategies from a Western perspective.
