Purpose: Facial rejuvenating surgery has become a challenge to most plastic surgeons. Patients are demanding fewer complications, a prompt recovery, and more natural results. Current trend of the face lift surgery has been developed into less invasive procedures. Every aging patient in Asia wants to look younger without obvious evidence of surgical correction. Methods: The authors performed the limited dissection face lift with PDS quilting suture on twenty five patients. These five quilting sutures consist of sutures at 1~2 cm posterior to the prominent point of zygoma to the periosteum of the zygomatic arch, at the lateral border of Bichat's fat pad area to the zygomatic arch, at the lateral border of the orbicularis oculi muscle to the deep temporal fascia, at the upper lateral border of the platysma to the periosteum of the mastoid, and at the anterior lower margin of the earlobe to the deep temporal fascia by quilting suture technique to achieve rejuvenation. Results: These procedures could produce a balanced volumetric rejuvenation. This method gave considerable benefit of stable and satisfactory results. It provides reduced operative time, well corrected nasolabial fold and neck wrinkle, and swift recovery with minimal complications. Conclusion: Although it could not replace the classic facelift, this technique can be recommended as an option for patients who do not present with advanced facial aging or not want a more extensive procedure.

Purpose: Cranial fasciitis is a rare type of benign tumor that occurs mostly in children younger than 6 years. It arises from the deep fascia, periosteum, or fibromembranous layer that covers fontanelles. The etiology is unknown, although prior trauma has been postulated to be an underlying cause. There is a 2:1 male predominance. Despite its rapid growth, this tumor has a benign clinical course and can be cured by total excision. Methods: A 16-year-old male presented with a 3 cm-sized palpable mass in the left lateral eyebrow region that he first noticed 4 months before presentation. The mass had grown rapidly since it was first noticed. Preoperative brain computed tomography showed a well-demarcated mass approximately 3 cm in size extending from the subcutaneous layer to the periosteum. Preoperatively, the presumed diagnosis was a dermoid cyst. An operation was performed with the patient under general anesthesia. The subcutaneous mass was completely excised by periosteal dissection. Results: Histological diagnosis revealed the presence of cranial fasciitis. After 20 months of follow-up, there have been neither complications nor evidence of local recurrence besed on clinical examination. Conclusion: Although cranial fasciitis is quite rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis for lytic skull lesions in patient whose clinical presentation suggests this possibility. This condition could be occasionally mistaken for malignant or locally aggressive lesions. To prevent local recurrence, curettage of the underlying bone is recommended for patients with bone involvement.

Myositis ossificans is a solitary benign ossifying lesion in the soft tissue. Occurring predominantly in muscles, a similar lesion may occasionally be found in subcutaneous tissues, tendons, fascia and periosteum. It is often misdiagnosed as an extraskeletal osteosarcoma because of its rapid growth. Therefore, it is sometimes called pseudomalignant myositis ossificans. Myositis ossificans rarely occurs in the distal portion of the finger. We present a case of myositis ossificans of finger and review the the clinical, radiographical, and histological presentation, as well as the appropriate therapeutic management.

The effect of irradiation of x-ray to developing rat mandible in the gestation stage was focused on the study of mandible development and the side effect of x-ray irradiation. The author studied the effect of x-ray irradiation with the gestated rat and their off'springs. 100 rads, 200 rads, 300 rads and 400 rads of x-ray was irradiated in regular order schematically at the lower left abdomen of gestated rat. 18½days after conception, their off'springs were sacrificed and exaimined their developing mandible with histological findings. The results were as followed. 1. In the 100-200 rads irradiated rat off'springs, bony trabeclulation was revealed irregular shape. In combine with this finding, osteoblast and fibroblast were appeared shrunken of their nucleus and location of eccentric position. 2. In the 300-400 rads irradiated rat off'springs, decrease of fibroblast and osteoblast appearance in the periosteum were prominently observed and empty lacunae were frequently appeared in their bone matrix. 3. The advent of osteoclast and resorption of cortical bone were appeared in proportion to increasing of x-ray irradiation.

We have experienced 30 patients of tuberculous chest wall abscess which was surgically treated at Kyung Hee University hospital during 6 years from Jan, 1978 to Dec, 1983. We analyze 30 cases of clinical findings and surgically treated, and 20 cases of chest X-rays are available. The results of this sturdy are as follows: 1.Sex ratio ; Male: Female = 1:1.72. 2.Chief complaints are fluctuated mass with or without tenderness or pain and pus from wound. 3.Out of 20 cases of chest x-rays revealed 8 cases of osteolytic lesion, 11 cases of soft tissue swelling, 5 cases of pleural changes and 4 cases of negative findings. 4.We resected partially 43 ribs of 30 patients [average: 1.43 resected] in tuberculous chest wall abscess. 5.Operative methods of tuberculous chest wall abscess were partial resection of destructed or denuded periosteum of ribs and curettage of its surrounding tissues in operative field.

We experienced a rare case of parosteal lipoma, which located on the periosteum of the foot 4th metatarsus. A 22-year-old woman visited the hospital with painful mass in her foot. Based on the assessment of plain radiographs, computed tomography scan, and magnetic resonance image, it was suspected as lipoma. Marginal excision was performed and parosteal lipoma was confirmed histologically. Any local recurrence and complications were not observed in 2 years after surgery.

We presented a case of posteriorly displaced fracture of the distal clavicle in Child. The closed reduction was failed due to posteriorly displaced proximal fragment and interpositon of trapezius muscle and periosteum. We found that periosteal sleeve and coracoclaviclar ligament and acromioclavicular ligament was intact. The open reduction should be considered for the treatment of the irreducible posteriorly displaced fracture of the distal clavicle in child.

A weakened wild feral pig (a boar of about 15 kg) with snout distortion and characteristic external lesion of infectious atrophic rhinitis was captured at farm land near low mountains in Chinju, Kyeongnam province. This pig was necropsied and then the snout parts and the parenchymal organs were removed. The snout and nose were transversely sectioned at thickness of 1.5 cm interval. Grossly, the right side of the snout was shorted than that of left by reduction of right nasal turbinate length, but the nasal opening exudate was not observed. At necropsy, degeneration, adhesion, occlusion, and asymmetry of left and right sides on the meatus and turbinate were observed and findings of mild pneumonia were observed. Microscopically, the leukocyte infiltration, hyperemia and hyperplasia on the mucosa of the turbinates and septum were observed. The atrophied periosteum and osseous tissue were also observed. But Bordetella bronchiseptica was not identified in culture from nasal swabs. We expect the possibility that the snout distortion of this pig was due to infectious atrophic rhinitis according to these findings.

This paper reports a patient who had an airway obstruction caused by a hemorrhage of the mouth floor that occurred after she underwent flapless implantation in the region of the mandibular anterior teeth. The hemorrhage may have been caused by iatrogenic malpositioned fixture and patient's hypertension. The lingual periosteum was not dissected during the flapless procedure. Therefore, when hemorrhage occurred, the blood did not drain easily into the oral cavity but instead drained into the deep neck region, which might have been the cause of the airway obstruction.

Although painful conditions of varying degrees of severity involving the soft tissues (i .e., muscles, tendons, ligaments, periosteum and peripheral nerves) occur frequently, their underlying pathogenesis is poorly understood. The term peripheral neuropathic pain has recently been suggested to embrace the combination of positive and negative symptoms in patients whose pain is due to pathological changes or dysfunction in peripheral nerves or nerve root. The spinal nerve root, because of its vulnerable position, is very easily prone to injury from pressure, stretch, angulation, and friction. Therefore, not a few of musculoskeletal chronic pains are result of nerve root dysfunction. Neuropathic changes due to nerve root dysfunction are primarily in soft tissue especially muscle, tendon and joint. It shows tenderness over muscle motor points and palpable muscle contracture bands and restricted Joint range. Careful palpation and physical examination is the important tool that, be abne to detect all of these phenomena.
