  • In our hospital we have seen 20 cases of congenital diaphragmatic anomalies from June 1984 until December 1993. These were classified into 10 cases of diaphragmatic eventration, 8 cases of Bochdalek hernia, 1 case of Morgagni hernia, and 1 case of esophageal hiatal hernia. Diaphragmatic eventration cases were composed of 8 males and 2 females with ages varing from 3 hour to 42 year. They were discovered by symptoms: 5 cases of respiratory insufficiency; 3 cases of frequent respiratory infection; and 2 cases by chance; 6 cases involved the left side, 4 cases involved right side. Emergency operations were done to 4 patients. Among the 10 patients, only one operative mortality occurred; 3 hour old female.Bochdalek hernia cases composed 6 females and 2 males, 5 patients were less than 6 hour old. All patients were operated on an emergency status and three of them expired due to the vicious cycle of pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary vasoconstriction, persistent fetal circulation, hypoxia, and metabolic acidosis. Morgagni hernia was seen in one 69 year old female patient, she had no complaint of symptoms and was incidentally detected. Hernia was repaired through right thoracotomy. She was discharged with healthy appearence. Esophageal hiatal hernia was seen in a 10 month old male patient, his symptoms were persistent vomiting and coughing since birth. Sliding type of esophageal hiatal hernia repair was completed through left thoracotomy.

  • Pneumonia is an inflammation that forms at the mesopulmonum and alveolus that is also an acute infection with fever and cough. It is difficult for doctors to diagnose pneumonia in elderly patients, due to the variety of symptoms. For this reason, it, with its complications, is a major cause of death for the elderly. In this case, improvement was seen in an elderly patient diagnosed with pneumonia by X-ray, and by using Si-Kyung-Ban-Ha-Tang-Ka-Mi-Bang as a way of Kong-Bo-Kyum-Si, because in this case pneumonia was presumed Dam-Yel-Ong-Pye and Ki-Eum-Yang-Huh due to the weakness associated with old age. This thesis proposes that the elderly are better treated differently from other pneumonia patients due to the weakness that comes with old age.

  • A 20 year-old cleft lip and palate patient came for occlusal rehabilitation, but the constricted maxilla and early loss of posterior teeth called for an unusual treatment modalities. Distraction osteogenesis in the edentulous areas followed by artificial bone graft, dental implant along with orthodontic tooth movement were planed. Multidisciplinary treatment enabled both esthetic and functional oral rehabilitation of this patient.

  • I had treated a patient, 58 years old male, with squamous cell carcinoma in mandible. In the patient, radical operation was made by hemimandiblectomy, neck dissection and gnathoplasty with resin made mandible. The patient was radically treated, and the results were excellent in point of view of mandibular functions and esthetics.

  • The authors observed a case of Cherubism from 8 year-old boy who visited the Dept. of Oral Radiology in S.N.U.H. The patient complained of painless, bilateral swelling on mandibular angle area. Radiologically, sharply defined multiocular radiolucencies are found at both mandibular angle and maxillary posterior area. Another lesion is found at mandibular symphysis area. Interestingly, patient did not show 'look toward heaven' appearance in spite of maxillary involovment. The purpose of this paper if to describe the characteristic clinical, radiological and histopathological feature of the patient without familial involvement.

  • Twenty three year old soldier, was referred to me because of extreme mandibular prognathism. Eight years before, the patient had become aware of some protrusion of his mandible. Up until this time, his jaws seemed to have been developing normally. The oblique osteotomy of the mandible was performed. Risdon cable wiring was used in the upper and lower jaw in order to immobilize the mandible by intermaxillary wiring. The patient recovered from the operation, and was discharged from the 1st Army Hospital after 6 months with good functional mandibular relationship. The appearance of the patient was greatly improved.

  • Compared to other variables being considered in therapeutics, patient compliance has long been given minor attention although it affects every aspect of medical care; Limited methodology of compliance measurement, in particular, has hampered major progress in research, and pre-conceptions have been reiterated. However, there is a recent surge in interest derived from new data revealed by reliable methods, i.g. continuous medication (compliance) monitoring. The visualization of dynamics in drug regimen compliance over time offers unique opportunities, both to scientific drug evaluation and therapeutics in medical practice. New perspectives related to the descriptive and explanatory side of the problem are outlined by giving examples from various therapeutic fields.

  • Tuberculous epididymo-orchitis, a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, results from hematogenous dissemination or retrograde extension from the lower urinary tract. Herein, we studied the case of a 22-year-old male patient who presented with refractory left scrotal pain and inflammation. The patient also complained of multifocal pain involving the right buttock, posterior thigh, and right wrist, without trauma history. The patient was diagnosed with multifocal tuberculosis by sputum AFB study and right sacroiliac joint biopsy.

  • Over a 12 months period, we treated 2 cases with discrete subaortic stenosis caused by membranous band. In one patient, who was 19 years old woman, the echocardiograms showed the discrete membrane and idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis [IHSS . She underwent transaortic myotomy and mymectomy simultaneously band resection. Other case of 11 year old boy with discrete subaortic stenosis only underwent membrane resection. Both patients had an uneventful hospital course, but 19 year old woman showed remained pressure gradient in follow up echocardiograms.

  • Low back pain (LBP) is a significant in today's society, with lifetime include factors associated with LBP ar reporter. Among the causes, aberration of posture may play a role in the development of LBP. Many investigators have assessed the curvature of spine in standing posture. But LBP is associated with Lumber Hyperlordosis of Hyperlordosis is controversial Subjects: In conservative treatment(acupuncture, herb med, manipulation & TENS. exercise, potural correction) for a 40 years old woman who had low back pain(V AS) be caused by decrease lumbar lordotic angie. Objectives: The object is change of lumbar lordotic angle of a 40 years old woman who had low back pain with Lumbar hyperlordosis, In conservative treatment. Method: In conservative treatment, We added taping therapy(mechanical correction taping of Kinesio Taping) about Lumbar Lordosis. Conclusion: We experienced a 40 years old woman who had love pack pain with Lumbar hyperlordosis. In conservative treatment, Her pain was Improved by additional taping therapy In company with decrease of Lumbar Lordosis. 1. abnormal spinal curvature, specially lumbar hyperlordosis act on induction & perpetuation agent for low back pain 2. In a patient had low back pain with lumbar hyperlordosis, change of lumbar lordotic angle is of utility value for the effect of treatment and assessment of prognosis. 3. pain control is more relative with change of lumbosacral angle than lumbar lordotic angle, in patient had low back pain with lumbar hyperlordosis. 4. mechanical taping therapy with elastic adhesive tape is effective for patient had low back pain with lumbar hyperlordosis
