Soft tissue sarcoma of the head and neck is not frequent neoplasm, accounting for less than 1% of all malignant neoplasm in the region. The histological varieties include osteogenic sarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, tenosynovial sarcoma, angiosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. Rhabdomyosarcomas of the head and neck usually occur in children under the age of 10 years (over 70%) and rarely develop in adults over the age of 20 years. The prevalent sites of involvement include the orbit, nasal cavity, external ear, paranasal sinus and soft tissue of mouth and the primary location of tumor is considered to be one of the important prognostic factors. Before the 1960s, when surgical resection was the only method of treatment, the 5-year survival rate was less than 20%, but recently it has been greatly improved by the multimodality treatment, combining surgery with chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Here we treated a rhabdomyosarcoma woman with three cycles of high dose chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy. After the, completion of preoperative treatments, successful result of more than partial response was achieved. Three months later total maxillectomy and radical neck dissection was performed. There was no evidence of tumor infiltration in the resected tumor and regional lymphnodes but metastasized tumor cells in cervical lymphnodes were detected. Tumor cell infiltration was also found on the bone marrow biopsy to evaluate the pancytopenia which occurred during postoperative recovery. Two months later she died of secondary bone marrow failure. We think that this multimodality treatment combining pre-operative chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery might play an important role in curative resection and eyeball preservation in patients with rhabdomyosarcoma involving the eyeball.

하악골에서 low grade 골육종은 매우 드물게 보고되고 있으며 조직검사상 conventional osteosarcoma와는 달리 pleomorphism을 보이지 않기 때문에 양성종양으로 underdiagnosis되기 쉽다. 그러나 정확한 환자의 진단은 적절한 치료와 환자의 예후에 영향을 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 조기에 정확한 진단을 위하여는 의심되는 여러부위에서 조직검사를 시행하고 임상소견과 방사선소견 등을 병리의사와 공유하여야 한다. 이에 저자들은 초기에 진단이 어려웠던 하악골에 발생된 low grade 골육종을 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Background: Osteosarcoma is the most common bone cancer in children, responsible for a high rate of amputation and death. This is the first long-term, population-based, epidemiologic and survival study in Thailand. Objective: To study the incidence and survival rates of pediatric osteosarcoma in Khon Kaen. Method: Childhood osteosarcoma cases (0-19 years) diagnosed between 1985-2010 were reviewed. The data were retrieved from the population-based data set of the Khon Kaen Cancer Registry and medical records from Srinagarind Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Khon Kaen University. All cases were censored until the end of April 2012. The age-standardized incidence rate (ASR) was calculated using the standard method. Survival experience was analyzed using the standard survival function (STATA 9.0) and presented with a Kaplan-Meier curve. Results: 58 cases were enrolled. The overall ASR was 14.1 per million. Males and females were equally affected. The peak incidence was for 15-19 year-olds in both sexes (ASR=10.4 per million in males and 8.5 in females). The 5-year overall survival rate was 27.6% (95% CI: 15.8-40.8%). The median survival time was 1.6 years (95% CI: 1.2-2.1). In a subgroup analysis, the patients who received only chemotherapy survived longer (5-year survival 45.7%, median survival time 4.1 years, p=0.12). Conclusion: The incidence rate for childhood osteosarcoma was slightly less than those reported for Western countries. The survival rate was also lower than reports from developed countries. Further evaluation of the treatment protocol and risk factor stratification is needed.

1. 연부 조직과 골 조직사이에서의 악성 섬유성 조직구종의 근본적인 조직학적 차이는 없었다. 2. 악성 섬유성 조직구종은 조직학적 소견이 다양하므로, 확진을 위해서는 다른 종양을 반드시 배제하여야한다. 3. 재발시 다른 형태의 조직 소견을 보여줄 수 있기 때문에 정확한 진단을 위해 환자의 과거력 및 과 거의 조직학적 검토가 필수적이라 사료된다.

PURPOSE. The object of this study was to investigate the effect of UV irradiation (by a general commercial UV sterilizer) on anodized titanium surface. Surface characteristics and cellular responses were compared between anodized titanium discs and UV irradiated anodized titanium discs. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Titanium discs were anodized and divided into the following groups: Group 1, anodized (control), and Goup 2, anodized and UV irradiated for 24 hours. The surface characteristics including contact angle, roughness, phase of oxide layer, and chemical elemental composition were inspected. The osteoblast-like human osteogenic sarcoma (HOS) cells were cultured on control and test group discs. Initial cellular attachment, MTS-based cell proliferation assay, and ALP synthesis level were compared between the two groups for the evaluation of cellular response. RESULTS. After UV irradiation, the contact angle decreased significantly (P<.001). The surface roughness and phase of oxide layer did not show definite changes, but carbon showed a considerable decrease after UV irradiation. Initial cell attachment was increased in test group (P=.004). Cells cultured on test group samples proliferated more actively (P=.009 at day 2, 5, and 7) and the ALP synthesis also increased in cells cultured on the test group (P=.016 at day 3, P=.009 at day 7 and 14). CONCLUSION. UV irradiation induced enhanced wettability, and increased initial cellular responses of HOS cells on anodized titanium surface.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: A biochemical approach for surface modification has offered an alternative for physicochemical and morphological methods to obtain desirable bone-implant interfaces. PURPOSE: The purpose of the present study was to investigate cell responses to poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)/$1{\alpha}$,25-(OH)$_2D_3$ coating with reference to cellular proliferation and differentiation in vitro. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 96 titanium discs were fabricated and divided into four groups. Group 1 was anodized under 300 V as control. Group 2, 3 and 4 were anodized then coated with 3 ml PLGA/$1{\alpha}$,25-(OH)$_2D_3$ solutions. Amount of the solutions were 2 ul, 20 ul and 200ul respectively. The osteoblast-like Human Osteogenic Sarcoma (HOS) cells were seeded and cultured for 1, 3 and 7 days. MTSbased cell proliferation assay and ALPase activity test were carried out. RESULTS: PLGA nanoparticles were observed as fine, smooth and round and HOS cells attached to the anodized surfaces through strand-like and sheet-like filopodia. After 3 days of culture, the dendritic filopodia were exaggerated and sheet-like cytoplasmic projections covered the coated titanium surfaces. After 3 days of culture, all of the groups showed increased cellular proliferation and the lowest proliferation rate was measured on group 2. Higher amount of incorporated $1{\alpha}$,25-(OH)$_2D_3$ (Group 3 and 4) improved cellular proliferation but the differences were not significant statistically (P > .05). But they increased the rate of ALP activities than the control group at day 3 (P < .05). CONCLUSION: Biodegradable PLGA nanoparticles incorporated with vitamin D metabolite positively affected proliferation and differentiation of cells on the anodized titanium surface.

Methotrexate (MTX) in one of the antineoplastic drug and it is known to effective to management of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children, management of choriocarcinoma and related trophoblastic tumors in women, management of carcinomas of the breast, tongue, pharynx, and tests, maintenance of remission in leukemia and treatment of serve, debilitating psoriasis. Intermediate to high-dose methotrexate administration followed by leucovorin rescue is effective in treatment of carcinoma of the lung and osteogenic sarcoma. Intrathecal administration is effective in treating meningeal leukemia or lymphoma. There are FPIA (Fluorescence polarization immunoassay) and EMIT (Enzyme multiplied immunotechique) methods that measure for MTX. We evaluated the FPIA and EMIT methods. MTX were measured by Hitachi-7600 P-module using EMIT and FPIA using TDX in the sera 60 patients. The performance characteristics evaluated were, light influence, linearity, comparison with FPIA. Also, precision evaluated were three level controls through put following CLSI evaluation protocols (EP10-A). When the MTX value of $4.16{\pm}5.78{\mu}{\mu}mol/L$ (mean, SD) by the Hitachi-7600 P-module was compared with that of $4.05{\pm}5.47{\mu}{\mu}mol/L$ by FPIA, coefficients of correlation of 0.988 was obtained. The regression equation was Y (Hitachi-7600 P-module) = 0.9408 x (FPIA) + 0.1316 (r=0.9885, n=60). CVs of MTX measured by Hitachi 7600 P-module was 6.78% at $0.33{\mu}{\mu}mol/L$, 0.96% at $1.16{\mu}{\mu}mol/L$, and 0.96% at $8.04{\mu}{\mu}mol/L$. The precision was excellent in each group. The linearity was acceptable. We evaluated that MTX is light-sensitive on prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Comparing with the FPIA using TDX, the Hitachi-7600 P-module using EMIT showed good coefficient of correlation and precision. Therefore the Hitachi-7600 P-module can replace the FPIA for quantitative analysis of MTX.

목적: 장관골의 골육종 치료로써 한국에서 시행된 항암제 치료 및 수술적 치료 후의 결과와, 중국에서 시행된 비침습적인 초음파 치료(high intensity focused ultrasound, HIFU)간의 다국적 임상 결과를 비교하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 한국에서 1993년 이래로 통상적인 항암요법과 사지구제술을 시행한 총 67예(IIA; 4 cases, IIB; 58 cases, III; 5 cases)와, 중국에서 1997년 이래로 초음파 치료를 시행한 총 71예(II; 57 cases, III; 14 cases)를 연구 대상으로 하였다. 한국에서는 총 67예 중, 66예에서 수술 전 선행 화학치료를, 반면 중국에서는 총 71예 중, stage II의 34예에서 9회 이상의 full protocol 화학치료가 시행되었고, stage II의 23예와 stage III의 14예에서 8회 이하의 부분 화학치료를 시행하였다. 한국의 67예는 모두 광범위 절제술을 시행하였고, 56예에서 국소 재건술을 병행하였다. 5예에선 국소 재건 없이 광범위 절제만 시행하였고, 6예에선 절단술만을 시행하였다. 반면 중국의 총 71예는 평균 1.5회(1~4회)의 초음파 치료가 시행되었다. 결과: 한국의 stage II의 5년 생존율은 평균 92.7%(IIA 100%, IIB 85.5%), 반면, 중국의 5년 생존율이 평균 78.7%로써 항암제를 병행한 군은 91.8% 및 항암제 치료를 못 받은 군은 56.6%였다. Stage III의 3년 생존율은 한국 20%(5예중 1예 생존), 중국은 7.1%(14예 중 1예 생존)였으며, 전 예의 평균 생존율은 한국 65.2%, 중국 51.8%였다(Table 2). 한국 환자들의 ISOLS에 의한 최종 기능 평가 결과는 평균 24.3(81%)였고, 중국 환자들은 19.8(73%)였으며, 치료의 합병증은 한국 25.4%(17/67 cases), 중국 31%였다. 결론: 한국에서 시행한 수술적 치료전후 화학요법을 시행한 결과는 초음파 치료를 이용한 비침습적 열괴사 방법보다 양호하였으나, 골종양에 대한 초음파 치료도 적응증을 잘 선택한다면 장관골 골육종의 치유 및 국소 재발율을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.
