The body segment parameters of twelve young male Korean were measured to compare with the results of foreign cadaver studies. A human body was assumed to have fourteen body segments. The mass of each segment was measured with a water immersion test and the mass center of a segment was determined on the balance platform by changing postures. In the case of Korean, because of the difference in body proportion, the mass center of whole-body is located further from the distal end of head(Korean : 44.9% vs. Caucasian : 41.2%), and the mass center of each segment also located in different proportional locations. The existing regression equations, which can estimate segment mass based upon the anthropometric dimensions, estimates segment mass (the mass of shank) for Korean with 13% error. Therefore, it is not recommended to estimate the mass, and the moment of inertia of body segment of Korean based on the existing equations. However, the density information of body constituents was similar enough to apply it to Korean density. It was validated by the comparison between the results of the direct immersion method and 3-dimensional volume reconstruction of segment form the cross sectional images of CT-scan. The average body density measured form twelve subjects was $1.035{\;}kg/m^3$ and showed deceasing trendency.

This is a report of a. case in which a long narrow segment coarctation of the aorta was successfully corrected with Teflon graft. The patient was 30 year old man with hypertensive symptoms that occurred 7 years prior to operation. Blood pressure measured 230/110 mmHg in the arms and 110/80 mmHg in the legs. Pulses were strongly tensive in radial artery, but very weak in femoral artery and even absent in dorsal pedis artery. Final preoperative diagnosis was made by aortography which showed a long narrow segment between aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta and highly developed collateral circulations. A long hypoplastic narrow segment was located proximal to the ligament arteriosus, and diaphragmatic stenosis of the aorta was located just distal to the ligamentum arteriosus. After prosthetic correction of the coarctation of the aorta, blood pressure were measured 130/ 80 mmHg in the arms and 150/100 mmHg in the legs. Peripheral pulses were palpated normally, and the postoperative course was uneventful.

Purpose: This study investigated the coordination and contribution of body segments during functioning. Methods: The relevant literature related to body segments and function were reviewed. Results: Efficient control of function is considered with regard to a participant's ability to perform a sequence of movements in body segments, which progresses from the head to the arm, trunk, pelvis, and leg segments. Each segment performs a specific role, which environment explorer using visual information for the head, reaching and grasping for the arms, a stabilizer for the trunk, and the distribution of COM in the pelvis and leg. Conclusion: During any of the movements, the momentum generated by the proximal segments is transferred to the adjacent distal segments in an appropriate sequence. In assessing function for clinical intervention strategies, the segment coordination, segment sequence, transfer of the center of body mass, asymmetrical ratio, muscle activity, and compensatory strategies should be considered.

The aneurysm arising from the posterior cerebral artery is relatively uncommon, and has been reported in 0.7- 2.2% of whole cerebral aneurysm. Moreover, only a few cases of the giant aneurysm over 2.5cm in diameter arising from the distal portion of the posterior cerebral artery have been reported. Neurologic complications may occur after surgical treatment of this aneurysm due to difficult surgical approach and neurovascular complexity around the brain stem. Authors experienced a case of the thrombosed giant aneurysm with approximately 2.7cm in diameter arising from the P2 segment of the left posterior cerebral artery. Complete removal of the thrombus in the aneurysmal sac and direct neck clipping was performed via left subtemporal approach.

The treatment of aortic aneurysm of ascending aorta has been fraught with difficult surgical problems. For the most part, these were resolved in 1968 with the introduction of a technique of total replacement of ascending aorta and reimplantation of the coronary arteries by Bentall and De Bono. This technique however, with all of its advantages, caries a certain problems. In chronic dissecting aneurysms, there is frequently a marked disparity in circumference between the true and false lumen distally. Distal perfusion is directed into both the true and false lumens by removing segment of the septum between the two lumens and constructing the distal graft anastomosis is to the outer layer of aortic adventitia. The distal false lumen, aortic branches and fenestrations have matured and healed in most cases. And importantly, major aortic tributaries may be solely dependent on the false lumen for perfusion. We are presenting two cases of chronic dissecting aneurysm of ascending aorta with aortic regurgitation, who have good result by surgical correction of so-called Bentall procedure with maintenance of blood flow directed into both true and false lumen.

Spontaneous dissection of the anterior cerebral artery is an unusual cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. We present a case of a dissecting aneurysm of the anterior cerebral artery presenting with subarachnoid hemorrhage. A 51-year-old woman presented to our hospital with severe headache. Neurological examination demonstrated neck stiffness, decreased visual acuity of the left eye, and left ankle weakness. Computed tomographic scans showed subarachnoid hemorrhage. The initial cerebral angiogram demonstrated a slightly narrowed caliber and mild poststenotic dilation of the right A1 segment. A second cerebral angiogram 14 days later revealed no change in the focal narrowing of the proximal A1 segment but marked progression of the dilatation of the distal A1 segment. Right pterional craniotomy was performed. A sausage-like dilation of the right A1 segment was found with no definite mural hematoma. This abnormal right A1 segment was wrapped with a Sundt clip. A postoperative computed tomographic scan revealed Infarction of the right head of the caudate nucleus and the anterior limb of the right internal capsule. If a dissecting aneurysm is suspected, serial angiographic studies should be performed because of the possibility of dynamic changes over a short period.

Thirty-four children who were patients at the Pedodontic Department of Infirmary of Dental College, S.N.U., aged from 3 years 1 month to 6 years 10 months. One quadrant jaw was measured for each child, Each of the 5 teeth was measured in 6 specific areas, therefore, a total of 1,020 measurements were observed. The results were as follows: 1. Facial surface was the shallowest of all. It was 0.14 mm. shallower than lingual, 0.62mm. shallower than mesial, 0.98mm. shallower than distal. 2. The sulcus generally increased in depth from anterior to posterior. 3. The anterior segment in the maxilla was the shallowest of all. It was 0.68mm. shallower than posterior of maxilla, 0.08 mm. shallower than anterior of mandible, 0.63 mm. shallower than posterior of mandible. 4. The most frequent measurement observed in the both jws was 1.4mm. 5. The mean for the complete anterior segment in the maxilla was 1.3±0.50 mm. In the posterior segment of the maxilla, the mean was 2.0v0.74mm. In the mandible, the mean for the anterior segment was 1.4±0.46 mm. In the posterior segment of the mandible, the mean was 2.0±0.56 mm. 6. The mean gingival sulcus depth for the entire Primary Dentition was 1.7±0.59 mm.

Three-dimensional solid model has not been widely used in surgical prediction of orthognathic surgery because frequent artifacts from occlusal restorations or prosthesis limited the usefulness of simulated surgery involving occlusion. We prepared three-dimensional(3D) solid model from CT data and integrated the 3D solid model with dental cast using a face-bow transfer technique combined with skeletal reference measurement and confirmation with cephalometric radiographs. With this simple and easy method, it was possible to predict bony interference between the proximal and distal segment of the mandible so that we can prevent condylar displacement after sagittal split ramus osteotomy of the mandible with prominent asymmetry. The method error was within 2mm and it seemed to be useful in preoperative planning for maxillofacial surgery with maxillo-mandibular occlusal change.
