Purpose: The common deformity after the correction of unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity is nasal asymmetry, and it is caused by the hypoplasia of the pyriform aperture. To correct this, many procedures have been applied, but still many problems are present. Authors performed the inlay and onlay insertion of porous high density polyethylene sheet(1 mm thickness $Medpor{(R)}$ sheet) in the hypoplastic pyriform margin of cleft side and obtained satisfactory results. Methods: 11 cases were performed and the mean follow up period was 15.1 months. Their mean age was 23.6 years. Under general anesthesia, bilateral pyriform margin was exposed. $Medpor{(R)}$ sheets in "match stick" like shaped were inlay inserted, and kidney shaped were onlay inserted fixating with two 6 mm titanium screws. After the surgery, the results was evaluated by photogrammetric analysis. On the basal view, the distance from the subalare and labiale superius' to the transverse baseline connecting the both cheilions was measured from the cleft side and the non-cleft side. Then, the postoperative symmetry was assessed by obtaining the cleft side against the non-cleft side as proportion index, defined as lateral and medial upper lip contour index. Results: There were 2 infections. The cause was because the inserted implant was too long and thus protruded to the base of nasal cavity. The lateral upper lip contour index was from 95.49 to 103.27, and medial upper lip contour index was from 90.92 to 100.49, it was statistically increased, and thus the symmetry was improved. However clinically mild depression remained at nostril floor. Conclusion: Authors performed porous high density polyethylene sheet inlay and onlay insertion for the hypoplasia of the pyriform margin in unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity. It was found that depressed pyriform margin and upper lip were corrected effectively except for the nostril floor, for which an additional soft tissue augmentation would be necessary. The inlay insertion has risk of protrusion, thus the guideline of the use of artificial prosthesis should be observed strictly.

Background: A 9-year-old male showed severe defects in midface structures, which resulted in maxillary hypoplasia, ocular hypertelorism, relative mandibular prognathism, and syndactyly. He had been diagnosed as having Apert syndrome and received a surgery of frontal calvaria distraction osteotomy to treat the steep forehead at 6 months old, and a surgery of digital separation to treat severe syndactyly of both hands at 6 years old. Nevertheless, he still showed a turribrachycephalic cranial profile with proptosis, a horizontal groove above supraorbital ridge, and a short nose with bulbous tip. Methods: Fundamental aberrant growth may be associated with the cranial base structure in radiological observation. Results: The Apert syndrome patient had a shorter and thinner nasal septum in panthomogram, PA view, and Waters' view; shorter zygomatico-maxillary width (83.5 mm) in Waters' view; shorter length between the sella and nasion (63.7 mm) on cephalogram; and bigger zygomatic axis angle of the cranial base (118.2°) in basal cranial view than a normal 9-year-old male (94.8 mm, 72.5 mm, 98.1°, respectively). On the other hand, the Apert syndrome patient showed interdigitating calcification of coronal suture similar to that of a normal 30-year-old male in a skull PA view. Conclusion: Taken together, the Apert syndrome patient, 9 years old, showed retarded growth of the anterior cranial base affecting severe midface hypoplasia, which resulted in a hypoplastic nasal septum axis, retruded zygomatic axes, and retarded growth of the maxilla and palate even after frontal calvaria distraction osteotomy 8 years ago. Therefore, it was suggested that the severe midface hypoplasia and dysostotic facial profile of the present Apert syndrome case are closely relevant to the aberrant growth of the anterior cranial base supporting the whole oro-facial and forebrain development.

눈물길 조영검사 시 눈물기관 해부학적 구조의 다양성, 눈물길기형, 검사 중 발생하는 유루증과 같은 경우 전면상 외에 코 안으로의 배출을 좀 더 자세히 표현해낼 수 있으며, 유루증과 코 눈물관으로의 배출을 구별할 수 있는 방법의 필요성을 생각해 보았다. 이에 전면상 지연 촬영 외에 양측 안 와 사위상을 획득하는 방법의 유용성에 대해 알아 보고자 하였다. 2013년 1월부터 2013년 8월까지 눈물길폐쇄로 인한 유루증을 주소로 하는 78명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 평균나이는 $56.96{\pm}13.36$세였다. $^{99m}TcO4^-$ 3.7 MBq (0.1 mCi)을 $10{\mu}L$ 씩 마이크로피펫을 이용하여 양 안 하결막낭에 1-2방울 점안 후 1분 씩 20frame, 20분 간 동적 검사를 시행 하였다. 동적 검사 직후 양 안에서 코 안으로 배출이 확인되는 경우는 즉시 사위상을 획득하였고 어느 한쪽의 안 와라도 배출이 보이지 않는 경우 40분 뒤 전면상으로 확인 후 안 와 사 위상을 획득하였다. 검사 시 사용한 장비로는 Pin-hole Collimator를 장착한 Gamma Camera (Siemens Orbiter, Hoffman Estates, IL, USA)장비를 사용하였다. 실험대상 78건의 영상 중 전면상에서 코 안으로의 배출이 확인되었던 환자는 35명이었다. 그 중 양 안 모두에서 코 안으로 배출을 보인 환자는 15명이었고 양 안 8명, 좌 안 2명, 우 안 1명에서 사위상을 통해 보다 나은 배출 양상 관찰이 가능하였다. 좌 안 및 우 안에서 배출이 있었던 환자는 20명이었고 10명이 전면상에 비해 명확한 배출을 보여 주었다. 그 외 배출 가능성이 있는 환자는 13명이었으며 코 눈물관으로의 추적자이동이 보이지 않은 환자는 30명이었다. 기술통계 결과 총 35명 중 21명(60%)이 사위상 추가 촬영으로 전면상보다 뚜렷한 배출 양상을 나타내었다. 배출 감별유용성에 관한 Likert 5점 척도 blind test를 통해 사위상 획득이 전면상에서 자세히 보이지 않는 부분을 나타내 줌으로써 배출 유무 확인이나 배출 지연, 코 눈물관 폐쇄를 진단하는 데 도움이 된다고 응답하였다. 또한 유루증 발생시 코 눈물관으로의 배출과 피부로의 흘림을 구별할 때 사위상이 전면상에 비해 구별능이 높다고 응답하였다(전면상:$4.14{\pm}0.3$, 사위상:$4.55{\pm}0.4$). 눈물길 조영검사 시 양측 안 와 사위상을 전면상 이외에 추가적으로 획득한다면 전면상에서 충분히 보여주지 못하는 영역의 검사가 가능하여 코 눈물관 이후로의 배출 유무를 확인하고 피부에서 유루증의 흐름을 코 눈물관과 구별하는 데 용이하기에 판독의 진단능을 높일 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

The secondary correction of cleft lip nasal deformity (CLND) presents difficult surgical problems. Characteristically, nostrils are asymmetric. The present study was aimed to examine and compare the effect of Straith's alar web Z-plasty, Millard's alar web Z-plasty, alar web excision, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base for augmentation of the nostril with or without lengthening the columella in CLND. The subjects were 28 patients with unilateral cleft lip, who had secondary nostril correction. The nostril correction methods were Straith's alar web Z-plasty, Millard's alar web Z-plasty, alar web excision, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base. Facial photographs were taken before and 20 days after the operation. By using Adobe photoshop, the columella length and the nostril width were measured from the facial frontal photograph and Worm's eye view. The degree of improvement was calculated and statistically analyzed. The degree of improvement of the columella length using Straith's alar web Z-plasty was 70.20%. And then Millard's alar web Z-plasty was 55.01%, alar web excision was 39.93%, and lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base was 16.38% in order. The degree of improvement of the nostril size using lateral V-Y advancement of the alar base was 55.26%. And then alar web excision was 52.72%, Millard's alar web Z-plasty was 34.86%, and Straith's alar web Z-plasty was 16.06% in order. Straith's alar web Z-plasty and Millard's alar web Z-plasty resulted in elongation of the columella, equalization of asymmetrical nostril, and enlargement of small nostrils. Alar web excision enlarged nostrils and restored symmetry. Lateral VY advancement of the alar base increased nostril width and enlarged nostrils. These results indicate that the correction of nostrils improve the shape and the symmetry of the nostrils in CLND.

Objective: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of miniscrew assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) treatment in late adolescents and adult patients using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Literature search was conducted in five electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) based on the PICOS keyword design focusing on MARPE. Out of the 18 CBCT screened outcomes, only nine parameters were sufficient for the quantitative meta-analysis. The parameters were classified into three main groups: 1) skeletal changes, 2) alveolar change, and 3) dental changes. Heterogeneity test, estimation of pooled means, publication bias, sensitivity analysis and risk of bias assessment were also performed. Results: Upon database searching, only 14 full-text articles were qualified from the 364 obtained results. Heterogeneity test indicated the use of the random-effects model. The pooled mean estimate were as follows: 1) Skeletal expansion: zygomatic width, 2.39 mm; nasal width, 2.68 mm; jugular width, 3.12 mm; and midpalatal suture at the posterior nasal spine and anterior nasal spine, 3.34 mm and 4.56 mm, respectively; 2) Alveolar molar width expansion, 4.80 mm; and 3) Dental expansion: inter-canine width, 3.96 mm; inter-premolar width, 4.99 mm and inter-molar width, 5.99 mm. The percentage of expansion demonstrated a skeletal expansion (PNS) of 55.76%, alveolar molar width expansion of 24.37% and dental expansion of 19.87%. Conclusions: In the coronal view, the skeletal and dental expansion created by MARPE was of the pyramidal pattern. MARPE could successfully expand the constricted maxilla in late adolescents and adult patients.

Cleidocranial dysplasia is a rare and autosomal dominent disorder characterized by aplasia or hypoplasia of the clavicles, an open fontanelle, dental abnormalities, and short stature, A 17-year-old female who presented with short stature and subsequent delay in eruption of permanent teeth is described. she showed the abnormal hypermobility of the shoulder, ocular hypertelorism and concave nasal bridge. Radiographs revealed the underdeveloped maxilla, defect of the cranium in the fontanelle region, and aplasia of the clavicles. Characteristically, panoramic view revealed near parallel-sided borders of the ascending ramus and downward curvature of the zygomatic arch with hypoplasia. The prolonged retention of deciduous teeth with delayed eruption of permanent teeth and multiple embedded supernumerary teeth were striking. Radiographic and clinical investigations revealed Cleidocranial dysplasia.
