Fourteen patients underwent surgical resection of bullae between February, 1987 and June, 1990 via median sternotomy. Twelve patients had spontaneous pneumothorax with previous history of pneumothorax on the contralateral side or visible bullae on chest X-ray films. Two patients had bullous emphysema. The duration of operation and admission, frequency and amount of analgesic administered for pain control, pulmonary function test [FEV1, FVC, MVV] and the amount of bleedings were compared with six cases of staged unilateral thoracotomy. The results were as follows: 1. All patients were male. 2. Mean follow up period was 13.5 month and no recurrence of pneumothorax are noted after the operation. 3. Median sternotomy showed shortened admission days than thoracotomy. [12.4$\pm$2.7, 15.6$\pm$3.1 days] 4. Significantly shortened anesthetic time in median sternotomy than thoracotomy [121$\pm$21, 184$\pm$33 minutes] 5. Median sternotomy required less injection of analgesics than thoracotomy. [6.5$\pm$2.7, 13.5$\pm$3.1 ampules] 6. Bleeding amount and PFT showed no differences. 7. Complications were prolonged air leakage for more than 7 days [2 patients], transient elevation of SGOT and SGPT[2 patients], and wound infection[1 patient]

An unstable second metatarsophalangeal joint may produce pain in the forefoot. Plication of stretched lateral ligament and capsule and transfer of the extensor digitorum brevis under the transverse intermetatarsal ligament performed as the primary procedure to stabilize this painful joint. But the pain was not subsided and the proximal phalanx was resubluxated. So, we osteotomized the second metatarsal to restore a normal alignment of the second toe. Then the symptom was subsided. We report a case of painful instability of the metatarsophalangeal joint of the second toe.

In several experimental models, estrogens protect neurons against ischemic insults. However, the recent clinical studies of hormone replacement showed negative results to prevent stroke. Therefore, optimal models to study estrogen replacement for neuroprotection are needed before its clinical ap-plication. Organotypic hippocampal slice under oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) has been established as a model of cerebral ischemia and has advantages to study drug effects. We investigated whether estrogen protected CAI neurons and affected activation of Akt (pAkt) in CAI region under OGD. Thus, rat hippocampal slices on day 7 of culture were treated with $17-{\beta}$ estradiol (E, 1 nM) for 7 days before 30 min OGD, and cell death of CAI neurons was quantified by propidium iodide (PI) staining and expression of pAkt was studied by Western blot and immunofluorescence. PI intensity in slices treated with E was significantly reduced 72 hour after OGD compared to that of non-treated slices (p < 0.05). E pretreatment also increased the expression of pAkt 72 hour after OGD compared to that of no treatment (p<0.01). These data suggest that estrogen pretreatment may rescue neurons from ischemic insults through the activation of Akt and also indicate that our model would be a useful alternative method to study the mechanisms and effects of estrogen replacement treatment for neuroprotection.

Background Numerous methods exist for simultaneous correction of mild blepharoptosis during double eyelid surgery. These methods are generally categorized into either incisional (open) or non-incisional (suture) methods. The incisional method is commonly used for the creation of the double eyelid crease in patients with excessive or thick skin. However, concurrent open ptosis correction is often marred by the lengthy period of intraoperative adjustment, causing more swelling, a longer recovery time, and an increased risk of postoperative complications. Methods The authors have devised a new, minimally invasive technique to alleviate mild ptosis during incisional double eyelid surgery. The anterior lamella is approached through the incisional technique for the creation of a double eyelid while the posterior lamella, including Muller's and levator muscles, is approached with the suture method for Muller's plication and ptosis correction. Results The procedure described was utilized in 28 patients from June 2012 to August 2012. Postoperative asymmetry was noted in one patient who had severe preoperative conjunctival scarring. Otherwise, ptosis was corrected as planned in the rest of the cases and all of the patients were satisfied with their postoperative appearance and experienced no complications. Conclusions Our hybrid technique combines the benefits of both the incisional and suture methods, allowing for a predictable and easily reproducible correction of blepharoptosis with an aesthetically pleasing double eyelid.

In 1979 during the period of about 10 months 320 cases of open heart surgery were done in Seoul National University Hospital. There were 220 Congenital anomaly cases consisting of 113 acyanotic and 107 cyanotic varieties, and 1 O0 acquired cardiac lesions. Out of 100 acquired lesions 96 were valvular cues. Among 97 valve replacement cases 3 were Ebstein anomaly treated with plication and tricuspid valve replacement. Operative mortality rate for congenital anomaly was 10.6%, with 2.7% for acyanotic and 22.4% for cyanotic group. For acquired lesions over all operative mortality was 7%. Tetralogy of Fallot, ventricular septal defect, and atrial septal defect were the 3 main congenital anomalies, with 88 cues, 69 cases, and 27 cues respectively. In 61 simple ventricular septal defect without other anomalies operative mortality rate was 1.6%, in 27 atrial septal defect no death and, in tetralogy of Fallot 12.2%. Among 69 ventricular septal defect cases 19[27.5%] type I VSDs, after Kirklin-Becu classification, were found, rather high relative incidence of type I compared with Caucasian patients. Among 97 valve replacement cases 20 double valves were replaced-11 mitral with aortic and 9 mitral with tricuspid valves. Over all operative mortality rate for valve replacement was 8.2% with 3.3% in 61 mitral valve replace-merit. The over all operative mortality rate for 320 open heart surgery cases was 10.6%. Bubble type oxygenator and xenograft bioprosthetic valves were utilized In almost all cases.

The superiorly based flap tracheostomy(SBFT) has been advocated as an new technique of tracheostomy to manage a wide variety of causes of upper airway obstruction. This technique has particular applicability in patients who require long term tracheostomy such as in bilateral vocal cord paralysis and severe obstructive sleep apnea. SBFT has numerous advantages such as shortening of the gap between the skin and trachea : construction of a self-sustaining tract ; circumferential mucocutaneous junction to reduce infection, granulation tissue, bleeding, and stenosis of the tract : avoidance of the laryngotracheal damage : easy placement of a tracheostomal stent to promote speech, coughing and swallowing. Most of all, this technique can reduces the suprastomal buckling by the support of the superiorly based tracheal flap, and thus prevents the stenosis of suprastomal airway. The disadvantage of SBFT is more time-consuming procedure than the conventional tracheostomy, A retrospective analysis of 8 patients undergoing SBFT between June, 1994 and March, 1995 in Dankook University Hospital was performed to present the surgical technique and com-plication rates. The average duration of follow up was 11 months. The complications were consisted of a wound infection and a sternal granulation. The other complications including wound dehiscence, tracheitis, pneumonia, tracheal granulation, sternal narrowing and subglottic stenosis were not experienced.
