Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) is an extremely rare, highly aggressive malignancy of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Patients with SNUC usually being asymptomatic until the tumor has extensively progressed therefore frequently present with invasion of the orbit or cranial vault. Most case series of SNUC report very poor prognosis despite aggressive multimodality therapy. We recently experienced a 78-year-old male patient diagnosed as SNUC occurred from the left sphenoid sinus with invasion to the cavernous sinus and orbital content, which was treated intranasal endoscopic debulking surgery combined with curative radiation therapy successfully, and report this case with a review of literature.

Nasotracheal intubation is an essential procedure during general anesthesia for dental treatment. Fiberoptic intubation is best accomplished by those who perform it as part of their daily practice. But nasal approach of fiberoptic intubation has some complications such as epistaxis and laryngeal injury. Especially, epistaxis is common and it make fiberoptic intubation because of limited view. When the epistaxis obstruct the field of vision we have to withdraw the fiberoptic bronchoscope and consider the other method for securing the airway. We succeeded in securing the airway of patient who had epistaxis during the fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation without withdrawing the fiberoptic bronchoscope. We used blind intubation guided by light source placed the tip of fiberoptic bronchscope applied to lightwand intubation.

A 4-year-old gelding Thoroughbred racehorse, which had been undergoing antibiotic therapy at a local veterinary clinic, was referred to the KRA veterinary center with a 20-day history of continuous right nasal discharge. Patient's history, endoscopic examination, and radiographic examination revealed primary maxillary sinusitis. Under sedation, surgical intervention was performed to collect samples and remove the accumulated mucopurulent exudate in the sinus. Swab samples were collected from the sinus during surgery for cytology and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Only one type of bacteria was cultured, and molecular analyses of 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences identified it as Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The isolate was resistant to multiple antibiotics, which are frequently used in equine practice. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was chosen based on antibiotic susceptibility test, trephination, and sinus lavage using saline were applied to treat bacterial sinusitis. The clinical signs improved after 1 month and the patient resumed training. This report describes S. aureus isolated from bacterial maxillary sinusitis in a horse and its antibiotic susceptibility.

Purpose: To investigate the anatomical structure of the incisive canal radiographically by a cone beam computed tomography. Materials and Methods: 38 persons (male 26, female 12) were chosen to take images of maxillary anterior region in dental CT mode using a cone beam computed tomography. The tube voltage were 65, 67, and 70kVp, the tube current was 7 mA, and the exposure time was 13.3 seconds. The FH plane of each person was parallel to the floor. The images were analysed on the CRT display. Results: The mean length of incisive canal was 15.87 mm±2.92. The mean diameter at the side of palate and nasal fossa were 3.49 mm±0.76 and 3.89 mm± 1.06, respectively. In the cross-sectional shape of incisive canal, 50% were round, 34.2% were ovoid, and 15.8% were lobulated. 87% of incisive canal at the side of nasal fossa have one canal, 10.4% have two canals, and 2.6% have three canals, but these canals were merged into one canal in the middle portion of palate. The mean angles of the long axis of incisive canal and central incisor to the FH plane were 110.3°±6.96 and 117.45°±7.41, respectively. The angles of the long axis of incisive canal and central incisor to the FH plane were least correlated (r= 0.258). Conclusion : This experiment suggests that a cone beam computed radiography will be helpful in surgery or implantation on the maxillary incisive area.

The study was based on a series of 252 patient with facial bone fractures who visited to Chun Cheon Sacred Heart Hospital, College of Medicine, Hallym University during the period of Dec., 1984 trough Nov., 1989. The results obtained are as follows; 1. The most frequent etiologic factor was traffic accident(45.2%). 2. The ratio of male to female was 5.5 : 1 and 2nd decade(44%) was the highest age group in incidence. 3. Monthly incidence was the highest in Aug(14.3%). 4. The most common site of fracture was mandible(55.3%) and zygoma complex(24.2%), nasal bone(11.6%), maxilla(8.9%) were next in order of frequeny. 5. In mandible fractures, the most frequent site was symphyseal area(36.9%) and 142 cases(85%) had fractures only in mandible. 6. In maxillary fractures, fracture with other facial bones(85.2%) was more frequent than fracture on maxilla only. The major fracture type on maxilla was Le Fort II type. 7. In fracture of zygoma complex, zygoma & zygomatic arch was the most frequent site(52.0%) and zygomatic arch(24.7%), zygoma(23.3%) were next in order. 8. Open reduction was major method of treatment in facial bone fractures except nasal bone ; mandible(62.9%), maxilla(77.8%), zygoma complex(65.8%). 9. Maxillofacial fractures were most frequently combined with head & neck injury(43.1%), and upp. & low. extremities(29.4%), chest and abdomen(11.9%) were in order of frequency.

Purpose: This study was a within subject repeated pretest-posttest design done to compare the effect of disinfection and the degree of MRSA(Methicillin- resistant staphylococcus aureus) isolation from hand disinfectant in ICU nurses. Method: Out of the total internal medicine/surgery ICU nurses at a university hospital in Seoul, 29 female nurses who were participating in direct patient care were participants in this study. After collection of samples, Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA were isolated from the palms, nails and nasal cavities of the nurses according to disinfectants (soap and beta-scrub). Results: The effect of disinfection was greater in the beta-scrub group than in the soap group, and the effect of disinfection on palms was higher in the beta-scrub group than in the soap group. As for the degree of MRSA isolation, there was more isolation in palms in the soap group than in the beta-scrub group but there was no difference in the degree of MRSA isolation from the hand disinfectant in nails and nasal cavities. Conclusion: Beta-scrub showed a superior prolonged effect against transient bacteria compared with soap. Further, to reduce MRSA infection, we recommend interventions focused on these aspects.

Background: There is no normative craniofacial anthropometric data for the Kenyan-African population. The purpose of this investigation was to determine normative anthropometric craniofacial measurements and proportional relationships for Kenyans of African descent and to compare the data with African Americans (AA), North American Whites (NAW), and neoclassical canons. Methods: Twenty-five direct facial anthropometric measurements, and 4 angular measurements, were taken on 72 Kenyan-African participants (age range 18-30 years) recruited at the University of Nairobi in Kenya. The data were compared with AA and NAW populations, and neoclassical canons. Descriptive statistics of the variables were computed for the study population. Results: Significant differences between both Kenyan males and females were detected in forehead height (~ 5 mm greater for males, ~ 4.5 mm for females), nasal height (reduced by ~ 4 mm in males, ~ 3 mm in females), nasal width (8-9 mm greater), upper lip height (> 3 mm), and eye width (greater by ~ 3 mm) compared to NAW subjects. All vertical measurements obtained were significantly different compared with NAW. Differences were observed in comparison with AA subjects, but less marked. Mouth width was similar in all groups. Angular measurements were variable. Neoclassical canons did not apply to the Kenyan population. Conclusions: Anthropometric measurements of NAW showed clear differences when compared with the Kenyan population, and variations exist with comparative AA data. The anthropometric data in terms of linear measurements, angular measurements, and proportional values described may serve as a database for facial analysis in the KenyanAfrican population.
