Purpose: We describe a new technique of arthroscopic medial plication using pull-out suture with consideration of anatomical location of medial patellofemoral ligament for the treatment of acute or recurrent patellar dislocation. Operative technique: Under arthroscopic examination, sutures are passed through the medial capsule, at which medial patellofemoral ligament is located, from outside to inside of knee joint. Three guide wires are inserted from anterior surface of the patella to upper half of its medial border. Intraarticular portions of sutures are pulled out toward anterior surface of the patella through bony tunnels. Under appropriate tension, the sutures are tied after performing lateral retinacular release. Conclusion: As suturing medial patellofemoral ligament, this technique can maximize the effect of medial plication and can correct subluxation and tilt of the patella. It seems to be a minimally invasive, easy and effective method for the treatment of acute or recurrent patellar dislocation.

Eventration of the diaphragm is a rare anomaly, the cause of which still is not understand completely. Recently we were experienced two cases of diaphragmatic eventration which were successfully treated with surgical diaphragmatic plication at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, college of medicine, chosun university. Specific complication were not noticed after surgical repair of diaphragmatic eventration with good results.

Ebstein`s anomaly, a rare congenital cardiac anomaly, is characterized by downward displacement of abnormal tricuspid valve. Indication for surgical repair and the optimal surgical approach are still controversy. Recently, we experience a case of Ebstein anomaly, which was treated by atrilized right ventricular plication and annuloplasty. The patient was discharged with good result on 17th post-operative day.

A 47-year-old man with myasthenia gravis (MG) was admitted for a lung transplant. He had bronchiolitis obliterans after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation due to acute myeloid leukemia. MG developed after stem cell transplantation. Bilateral sequential lung transplantations and a total thymectomy were performed. The patient underwent right diaphragmatic plication simultaneously due to preoperatively diagnosed right diaphragmatic paralysis. A tracheostomy was performed and bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) was applied on postoperative days 8 and 9, respectively. The patient was transferred to the general ward on postoperative day 12, successfully weaned off BiPAP on postoperative day 18, and finally discharged on postoperative day 62.

A 8 year old male was admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Korea University Hospital on June 22, 1978. The chief complaints were cyanosis and exertional dyspnea since at birth. EKG shows BVH and dextrocardia, phonocardiogram revealed the accentuation of second heart sound in aortic area. Echocardiogram from the left ventricle to the base of the heart, there is a discontinuity between the ventricular septum and the anterior aortic margin with a large aortic root & aortic overriding. His cardiac catheterization data and cardiac angiogram shows situs inversus totalis, dextrocardia, right aortic arch, large ventricular septal defect etc., and finally diagnosed Truncus Arteriosus. Edwards type IV with retrograde aortogram and selective bronchial angiogram. This is the first operative case reported as Rastelli operation for Truncus Arteriosus type IV in the literatures in Korea. Authors have experienced I case of Truncus Arteriosus, Edward type IV and Rastelli operation with Dacron Arterial Conduit Graft under cardiopulmonary bypass on July 3, 1978. The procedures were as follows; 2] Cardiopulmonary bypass: Origin of bronchial arteries excised from descending aorta bilaterally; defects in aorta closed. 2] Horizontal incision made high in right ventricle. 2] Ventricular septal defect [Kirklin type I+II] closed with Teflon patch. 4] Bifurcated dacron arterial graft with pericardial monocusp sutured to the bilateral pulmonary arteries. [Diameter 9 mm: Length 7 cm]. 5] Proximal end of the conduit graft anastomosed to right ventricle. [Diameter 19 mm: Length 5 cm]..Total perfusion time was 220 min. The result of operation was poor due to anastomotic leakage and increased pulmonary vascular resistance resulting acute right heart failure. The patient was died on the operation table. Literatures were briefly reviewed.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to report four operative cases of recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation being effectively treated by superior peroneal retinaculum reconstructive operation and rerouting of calcaneofibular ligament. Materials and Methods: Four male adults with recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation including one of patient with redislocation after the treatment of plication of inferior peroneal retinaculum were followed up after being treated with superior peroneal retinaculum reconstructive operation using Achilles tendon and rerouting of calcaneofibular ligament. Results: All patients followed up for over one year revealed no pain and no redislocation. One patient who experienced redislocation after the treatment of plication of inferior peroneal retinaculum had no other complication after the treatment of superior peroneal retinaculum reconstructive operation using Achilles tendon. Conclusion: The reconstructive operation presumed to be effective for recurrent peroneal tendon dislocation.

A 1 year 2 months old, male Chihuahua dog weighing 0.92 kg was presented with a history of intermittent vomiting after eating since two weeks ago. Based on the history, clinical signs, physical examination, and contrast radiographs, the diagnosis of sliding hiatal hernia was made. Diaphragmatic plication, esophagopexy and left-sided gastropexy concurrently required for surgical correction but in this case, diaphragmatic plication and esophagopexy could not be applied because of the patient's special condition. Instead, left-sided gastropexy was performed with additional pyloropexy. To treat reflux esophagitis, cimetidine and sucralfate were administrated and patient was fed in an upright position. Two days after the surgery, the patient showed normal activity and after then there was not found recurrence or complication.
