유착, 부적절한 교정치료, 과잉치, 낭종, 비정상적인 맹출경로등의 국소적인 원인으로 인하여 구치부의 매복이 발생할 수가 있다. 매복치는 적절한 치료를 하지 않으면, 교합기능의 상실, 영구치의 상실, 대합치의 정출, 인접치의 치근흡수등을 야기 할 수가 있다. 매복치를 성공적으로 맹출유도하기 위해서는 매복치의 치근형성여부가 중요한 요소가 되며, 매복치의 치근형태, 주위환경등을 유의한 적절한 교정력이 가해져야 한다.

Bifid mandibular condyle (BMC) is an uncommon morphological variant of the mandibular condyle. Although authors have proposed various etiologies for BMC, no consensus has emerged. In addition, varying findings have been reported regarding the epidemiological parameters of BMC (e.g., prevalence, gender ratio, and age), possibly due to its low incidence. BMC is occasionally associated with symptoms of the temporomandibular joint, such as ankylosis, pain, and trismus; however, it is difficult to detect this condition on conventional radiographs. This study reports a case of BMC with radiographic findings, and reviews the literature on the epidemiology of BMC.

An ulcer is defined as loss of epithelium. Although many oral ulcers have similar clinical appearances, their etiologies encompass many disorders, including trauma, infection, immunologic disease, and malignant oral cancer. Oral squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) occupying about 90% of oral cancer, usually manifests as unhealed ulcer over 2 weeks. Oral SCC can metastasize to the cervical neck lymph node, and therefore the surgical therapeutic modality for oral SCC could encompass the neck node dissection as well as wide excision for primary lesions, which should leave the post-operative complication of functional damage like dysphagia and facial deformity. Therefore, it is important to discriminate oral SCC from other ulcerative conditions to make a prompt management. The knowledge for the pathogenesis of the ulcerative lesions could help the clinicians to understand the differences of clinical features and to practice an appropriate therapeutics.

Autism and autistic spectrum disorder are chronic neuro-developmental disorders characterized by social and language impairments and stereotyped, repetitive patterns of behavior. The etiology of autism remains unknown; however, a strong genetic component has been detected and environmental factors may also be involved in their etiologies. In the current study, we reviewed evidence for the presence of prenatal and perinatal factors, gastrointestinal factors, food allergies, metabolic and heavy metal factors, and other nutritional factors that may represent risk factors for the development of autism and autistic spectrum disorder.

Objectives & Methods : This study was to study etiology and pathologic mechanism and to study acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for GU-CHANG. I've got compared and analyzed 42 kinds of book since Nei Jing(內經). Results and Conclusion : 1. The etiologies are heat of heart and spleen, insufficiency of middle -warm energy, deficiency of yin lead to hyperactivity of fire. 2. The meridians of acupuncture points which were used much for GU-CHANG were Conception Vessel Meridian, Stomach Meridian and Bladder Meridian. 3. The frequency of using acupunture points in this treatment were Hapkok(LI4)-17th, Sungjang(CV24)-14th, Nogung(P8)-12th, Kumjin Okaeg(NH70)-11th.

Root canal perforations are defined as the communication between the pulp cavity, the periodontal tissue and alveolar bone. The occurrence of perforations during endodontic treatment is reported to range from 2.3%~12%, which is not a complication rarely happens. Perforations have iatrogenic or pathological etiologies that involve caries or resorption. It leads to inflammation and the destruction of periodontal fibers and alveolar bone, followed by periodontal defects. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is currently the most indicated material for repair of root perforation, because of its favorable biocompatibility and sealing ability. Using magnification with dental operating microscope enhance the accessibility and visibility to manage the root perforation. It is important to diagnose and repair perforations immediately if possible.

Two different unusual cases of acute sciatic neuropathy are described. They appeared to have been caused by complications from a procedure performed on a patient in the lithotomy position, and an uncertain etiology associated with either a previous femur fracture or a recent blunt trauma to the buttock. Comprehensive histories of weakness, with radiographic or electrophysiological studies, or even exploratory surgery are important in order to understand the etiologies of the sciatic neuropathies.

Anemia can be defined as a reduction in blood hemoglobin concentration or red cell mass relative to age matched normal values. Clinical presentation may range from obviously pale and lethargy to an incidental finding during screening of an otherwise well appearing child. The differential diagnosis of anemia in each instance is broad with numerous possible etiologies. A careful history and physical examination as well as complete blood count, peripheral blood smear and additional laboratory tests are necessary in defining underlying cause of the anemia and guide in further treatment plans. In addition, Iron deficiency anemia and anemia of inflammation are common causes of mild to moderate anemia in children, but most pediatricians have some confusions to differentiate these two entities.

정신의학에 있어서 운동장애는 환자의 삶의 질에 큰 영향을 끼치는, 또 하나의 중요한 정신의학적 차원임에도 불구하고, 그동안 관심을 받지 못하고 간과되어 왔었다. 정신의학에서 운동장애는 일차성 신경학적 장애, 신경학적 장애의 정신의학적 동반이환, 일차성 정신장애의 양상, 약물-유도성 운동장애, 심인성 운동장애 등의 원인에 의해서 나타날 수 있다. 정신과 환자에서 흔히 보이는 운동증상의 신속하고 적절한 치료를 위해서는, 정신과의사들의 운동장애에 관한 정확한 진단과 감별진단의 능력이 선행되어야 한다.

Flatfoot is defined as loss of medial arch with hindfoot valgus, but normal condition is obscure due to wide individual variance. Loss or decreasing of medial longitudinal arch with radiographic image is clinically diagnosed as flatfoot. Flatfoot without symptoms is not an indication for treatment. The etiologies of flatfoot are congenital cause, hypermobility, tarsal coalition, neuromuscular disease, post-traumatic deformity, Charcot arthropathy, and posterior tibial tendon dysfuction. The flatfoot is classified as congenital and acquired, flexible, and rigid. The diagnosis is made by physical examination and radiographic findings. In particular, the posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is known as adult acquired flatfoot.
