Objectives: This prospective observational study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of perioperative airway and ventilatory management in patients undergoing surgery for oral cavity cancer. The study described the frequencies and types of procedures for securing the airway and the duration and types of postoperative ventilatory support. We compared the findings with those of the TRACHY study. Patients and Methods: One hundred patients undergoing oral cavity oncological surgeries were included. Airway assessment included inter-incisor gap, Mallampati class, neck movements, and radiological features. Surgical parameters, postoperative ventilatory support, and complications were documented. Results: The buccal mucosa was the most common cancer site (48.0%), and direct laryngoscopy was deemed difficult in 58.0% of patients. Awake fibreoptic intubation or elective tracheostomy was required in 43.0% of cases. Thirty-three patients were extubated on the table, and 34 patients were successfully managed with a delayed extubation strategy. In comparison with the TRACHY study, variations were observed in demographic parameters, tumour characteristics, and surgical interventions. Our mean TRACHY score was 1.38, and only five patients had a score ≥4. Prophylactic tracheostomy was performed in 2.0% of cases, in contrast to the TRACHY study in which 42.0% of patients underwent the procedure. Conclusion: The study emphasizes the challenges in airway management for oral cavity cancer surgery. While prophylactic tracheostomy may be necessary in specific cases, individualized approaches, including delayed extubation, are preferrable to maximize safety. Our findings contribute to better understanding and managing perioperative challenges in oral cancer patients and highlight the need for personalized strategies. Scoring systems like TRACHY should not be accepted as universally applicable.

Orthognathic surgery for the correction of dentofacial deformities is a common elective procedure. That has proven over the years to be a safe operation with minimal long-term morbidity. But, there are many surgical complication including mal-union of the bone, TMJ problem, excessive bleeding, and permanent damage of inferior alveolar nerve. Among them excessive bleeding which focus is not clear is one of the serious complication because that is fatal and so a transfusion is performing for the prevention and management of that. Until the end of the 1980's, homologous blood transfusions were routinely necessary because of the large amounts of blood lost during surgery. Recently several blood-saving measures can be undertaken for orthognathic surgery patients before, during, and after the operation. We made a comparative study of an amount of blood loss, hematologic change and transfusion requirements based on a series of 40 consecutive patients undergoing single-jaw and double-jaw surgery. The purpose of this investigation was to make a comparative analysis of an amount of blood loss, post-operative hematologic change and duration of the procedure under induced hypotensive anesthesia in healthy orthognathic patients.

Background: With growing attention to the aortopathy associated with aortic valve diseases, the number of candidates for accompanying ascending aorta and/or root replacement is increasing among the patients who require aortic valve replacement (AVR). However, such procedures have been considered more risky than AVR alone. This study aimed to compare the surgical outcome of isolated AVR and AVR combined with aortic procedures. Materials and Methods: A total of 86 patients who underwent elective AVR between 2004 and June 2010 were divided into two groups: complex AVR (n=50, AVR with ascending aorta replacement in 24 and the Bentall procedure in 26) and simple AVR (n=36). Preoperative characteristics, surgical data, intra- and postoperative allogenic blood transfusion requirement, the postoperative clinical course, and major complications were retrospectively reviewed and compared. Results: The preoperative mean logistic European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (%) did not differ between the groups: $11.0{\pm}7.8%$ in the complex AVR group and $12.3{\pm}8.0%$ in the simple AVR group. Although complex AVR required longer cardiopulmonary bypass ($152.4{\pm}52.6$ minutes vs. $109.7{\pm}22.7$ minutes, p=0.001), the quantity of allogenic blood products did not differ ($13.4{\pm}14.7$ units vs. $13.9{\pm}11.2$ units). There was no mortality, mechanical circulatory support, stroke, or renal failure requiring hemodialysis/filtration. No difference was found in the incidence of bleeding (40% vs. 33.3%) which was defined as red blood cell transfusion ${\geq}5$ units, reoperation, or intentional delayed closure. The incidence of mediastinitis (2.0% vs. 0%), ventilator ${\geq}24$ hours (4.0% vs. 2.8%), atrial fibrillation (18.0% vs. 25.0%), mean intensive care unit stay (34.5 hours vs. 38.8 hours), and median hospital stay (8 days vs. 7 days) did not differ, either. Conclusion: AVR combined with additional aortic or root replacement showed an excellent outcome and recovery course equivalent to that after isolated AVR.

Objective : Transfemoral catheter angiography (TFCA) is a basic procedure in neurovascular surgery with increasing importance in surgical and non-invasive treatments. Unfortunately, resident neurosurgeons have relatively few opportunities to perform TFCA in most institutions. We report a method developed in our hospital for training resident neurosurgeons to perform TFCA and evaluate the efficacy of this training. Methods : From May 2011 to September 2011, a total of 112 consecutive patients underwent TFCA by one resident neurosurgeon supervised by two neuroendovascular specialists. Patients who underwent elective diagnostic procedures were included in this study. Patients who underwent endovascular treatment were excluded. Demographic data, indications for TFCA, side of approach, number of selected arteries, and complications were analyzed. Results : This study included 64 males and 48 females with a mean age of 51.6 (12-81) years. All procedures were performed in the angiography suite. Common indications for procedures were as follows : stroke-induced symptoms in 61 patients (54.5%), Moyamoya disease and arteriovenous malformation in 13 patients (11.6%), and unruptured intracranial aneurysm in eight patients (7.1%). Right and left femoral puncture was performed in 98.2% and 1.8% of patients, respectively. A total of 465 selective angiographies were performed without complications. Angiographic examination was performed on 4.15 vessels per patient. Conclusion : TFCA can be performed safely by resident neurosurgeons based on anatomical study and a meticulous protocol under the careful supervision of neuroendovascular specialists.

A well-planned, precise occlusal adjustment of natural teeth has some distinct advantages over other forms of occlusal therapy. It should be emphasized, however, that an occlusal adjustment is an irreversible procedure and has definite contraindications in some mouths. Generally, the treatment methods for the patients that has open-bite will be following as below. : (1) Use of removable orthopedic repositioning appliance, (2) Orthodontics, (3) Full or partial reconstruction of the dentition, (4) Orthognathic surgical procedure, (5) Occlusal adjustment of the existing natural teeth, (6) Any combination of the above. Above all, the advantages of occlusal adjustment of natural teeth are : (1) the patient is more able to adapt to the changes in jaw position and posture; (2) the phonetic or speaking ability of the patient is not significantly changed and usually is improved; (3) the esthetics of the natural teeth is not altered and often is better; (4) the hygiene of the individual teeth is easily maintained; and (5) the functional usage of the teeth as cutting and chewing devices is markedly improved. The objective of an occlusal adjustment, as with any form of occlusal therapy, is to correct or remove the occlusal interferences, or premature contacts, on the occluding parts of the teeth which prevent a centric relation closure of the mandible. A systematic, disciplined approach can be followed in treatment, the objectives should be listed. They are : (1) Centric relation occlusion of the posterior teeth. (2) Proper "coupling" of the anterior teeth. (3) An acceptable disclusive angle of the anterior teeth in harmony with the condylar movement patterns. (4) Stability of the corrected occlusion. (5) Resolution of the related symptoms. For the patient with open-bite on anterior and posterior teeth, this case report shows the treatment methods in combination the fixed prosthesis with the selective cutting of the natural teeth. Occlusal adjustment is no longer an elective procedure but a mandatory one for patients requiring restorations and those in treatment for TMD dysfunctions or those whose dentitions show signs of occlusal trauma. Occlusal adjustment is essential for all who do not display the above lists.

Background and Objectives：Supraglottic partial laryngectomy is oncologically sound surgical procedure for selected cases of laryngeal cancer which maintains physiologic speech and swallowing without permanent tracheostoma. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the oncologic and functional results of supraglottic partial laryngectomy and neck dissection for supraglottic cancer. Materials and Methods：Between 1991-2005, Twenty-three supraglottic cancer patients, underwent supraglottic partial laryngectomy, were studied retrospectively. There were 5 patients with cT1, 14 with cT2, 4 with cT3 and 11 patients with cN0, 1 with cN1, 10 with cN2, 1 with cN3. All patients underwent neck dissection and postoperative radiotherapy was added to twenty patients. They were reviewed with respect to primary subsites, extended subsites, treatment result, survival rate, factors affecting the prognosis, postoperative complication, time of decannulation and oral diet, and postoperative voice. Results：Among eleven patients with clinically negative node, six patients had pathologically positive nodes. So occult metastasis was 54.5%. Two patients recurred at cervical lymph node and one had distant metastasis to lung. Local and regional control were 100% and 91.3%. The overall 3-year and 5-year survival rate were 84%, 78%, respectively. Nineteen cases were squamous cell carcinomas and four were basaloid squamous cell carcinomas. Basaloid subtype was significantly affected to survival. Decannulation and oral feeding were possible in 100%. Conclusions：Supraglottic partial laryngectomy is oncologically safe and functionally good procedure in supraglottic cancers. Elective neck dissection is beneficial in management of occult cervical metastasis.

배경 및 목적: 폐동맥밴딩술(pulmonary artery banding)은 폐동맥밴딩에 따른 합병증과 2차 수술시의 사망률에 있어서 상당한 위험부담을 갖고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 폐동맥밴딩술후에 시행되는 2차 수술의 위험부담을 알아보기 위해서 이전에 폐동맥밴딩술을 받았던 소아에게 시행된 2차 완전교정술의 성적을 조사하였다. 방법: 이전에 폐동맥밴딩술을 받았던 환아들중 1988년 5월부터 1997년 6월사이에 개심술에 의한 2차 완전교정술을 받았던 29례의 소아를 대상으로 하였다. 연령은 생후 2개월에서 45개월까지 였다(평균 20.6$\pm$9.0개월). 이들중 27례는 기왕의 폐동맥밴딩술후에 심부전 증상이 호전되었던 예들이었고(정기 수술군), 2례는 그렇지 못하여 조기에 2차 수술을 시행해야 했었다(조기 수술군). 술전 진단명은 양대혈관우심실기시가 2례(양대혈관우심실기시군), 심실중격결손이 주병변이었던 경우가 27례(심실중격결손군)였었다. 결과: 폐동맥밴딩술후 2차 완전교정술 시행까지의 기간은 5일부터 45개월까지로 평균 15.5$\pm$8.7개월이었다. 수술방법은 양대혈관우심실기시 2례중 1례에서는 심실내 턴넬교정법이, 1례에서는 수정 Glenn수술이 시술되었고, 심실중격결손군에서는 전례에서 심실중격결손의 첨포봉합을 함과 아울러 누두부근육절제술 4례 및 형성부전성 폐동맥판막의 판막절제술 1례가 추가시행되었다. 2차 완전교정술시에, 18례에서는 폐동맥밴딩으로 인해 초래된 협착을 해소하기 위해서 폐동맥패취성형술을 시행하였고, 1례에서는 수정 Glenn수술을 위해 주폐동맥을 근위부에서 완전결찰하였다. 2차 완전교정술에 따른 병원사망률은 17.2%(5례)였는데, 사망원인으로는 저심박출 4례 및 자가면역 출혈성 빈혈 1례가 있었다. 본 연구에 있어서, 양대혈관우심실기시군(2례)과 조기 2차 수술군(2례)은 높은 병원사망률을 나타내는 위험인자로 작용하였다. 그리고 만기사망 1례가 있었다. 결론: 본 연구에서 이전에 폐동맥밴딩술을 받았던 소아에게 2차 완전교정술을 시행했던 결과는 폐동맥밴딩에 따른 후천적 병변을 함께 교정해야 하는 어려움에 기인하여 술후 이병률과 조기 수술사망률이 상당히 높게 나타났다. 따라서 가능하면, 단순 심실중격결손에 있어서는 1차 완전교정술이 요망된다.

배경: 최근에 경피적 대동맥 스텐트 삽입술의 비약적인 발전으로 외과적 수술이 감소하고는 있으나, 여전히 근치를 위한 치료로 인정되고 있다. 저자들은 지난 6년 8개월간 시행한 복부 대동맥류의 수술성적 및 그 예후에 미치는 영향인자에 대해 분석하여 보았다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년 5월부터 2005년 6월까지, 2007년 4월부터 2009년 11월까지 복부 대동맥류로 수술 받은 환자 36명을 대상으로 하였다. 수술의 적응은 파열, 60 mm 이상의 최대직경, 내과적으로 조절 안되는 고혈압이나 통증이 있는 경우 등이었다. 결과: 환자들의 평균 나이는 $69.67{\pm}6.97$세 (57~84세)였고, 남자가 32명(89.2%), 여자가 4명 (10.8%)이었다 신동맥 하부부터 장골동맥 위까지 진행된 경우는 8명(22.2%), 장골동맥까지 진행된 경우는 28명(77.8%)이었다. 진단 당시 대동맥이 파열되어 있었던 환자들은 13명(36.l%)이었다. 대동맥의 평균 최대직경은 $73.7{\pm}13.3 mm$ (60~100 mm)였다. 수술은 대부분 정중 복부절개를 통한 복강 내 접근으로 시행하였고, 응급수술은 10명의 환자(27.8%)에서 시행하였다. 전체 환자 중 3명이 사망하여 전체 사망률은 8.3%였고, 파열된 환자의 사망률은 23.1%, 파열되지 않은 환자의 사망률은 0%였다. 수술 후 합병증으로는 창상감염 3예, 패혈증 2예, 신부전 2예, 폐렴 1예씩 있었다. 사망에 영향을 주는 인자로는 수술 전 불안정한 활력징후 수혈, 또는 실신이 있었던 경우, 과거력 상 당뇨병이 있는 경우, 동맥류가 파열된 경우와 응급수술 등이 있으며, 합병증 중 패혈증, 신부전이 발생한 경우와 술중 심폐소생술을 시행한 경우가 통계적으로 의미 있었다(p<0.05). 결론: 파열된 복부대동맥류에 대한 응급수술은 여전히 높은 사망률을 보이나, 파열되지 않은 복부대동맥류의 수술은 비교적 안전하게 진행할 수 있다. 비록 경피적 대동맥 스탠트 삽입술이 최근의 치료 경향이나 파열되지 않은 동맥류의 계획된 수술은 시술과 관련된 부작용이나 반복된 검사의 불편함을 줄이고 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.
