  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of applying physical expression program through dancing on the post-traumatic growth of domestic violence female victims. The subjects of this study were female victims of domestic violence living in shelters (7 facilities) for women victims of domestic violence in Seoul, consisting of 23 experimental groups and 23 control groups. The dancing healing physical expression program applied to the experimental group consisted of 18 sessions, which was conducted three times a week for 6 weeks, and each session was conducted for 90 minutes. This study was aimed to dancing based on physical expression and movement experience, but focuses on improvisational, non-formal and creative expression for inner expression. We referred to the activities and principles of previous studies, and applied characters, which were counseling techniques, interactions, and healing principles of previous counseling psychology studies on domestic violence and trauma, to every stage of the session. As a result of this study, it was found that the dancing healing physical expression program had an effect on the entire post-traumatic growth of the experimental group and lower dimension lists of the depth of interpersonal relationship, self-perception, potential discovery, spiritual interest level, The results of the post - test were compared. There was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups after the test. In conclusion, this study aimed to understand the fundamental and healing attributes of dance, and provided basic data to establish a virtuous intervention strategy that provided opportunities for self-recovery to those who experienced psychological pain, such as women victimized by domestic violence at the social aspect.

  • The objective of this study is to find out the effect of the secondary traumatic stress prevention program for counselors at child protection agencies. The quasi-experiment design was used for pre-test, post-test, and for follow-up test, performed 3 months after the program. Experimental group consisted of 9 counselors, while the comparison group consisted of 10 counselors. As a result, it was revealed that secondary traumatic stress prevention program was effective in decreasing the secondary traumatic stress and depression of the counselors, and also effective in increasing stress coping even though it was not statistically significant. Follow-up test did not present statistically significant changes in secondary traumatic stress, depression, and stress coping. It was found that, to achieve continued effect of the program, much longer and sustained program is required. Based on these findings, the necessity and application of the secondary traumatic stress prevention program were suggested.

  • Intramuscular hemangioma originated in chest wall is a rare benign tumor, with no relevant reports in Korea. In most cases, the tumor is discovered before the age of 30 years and it is reported that trauma operates as the initiation factor. It is essential to concern the clinical suspicion and conduct a CT scan for diagnosis. The principle of treatment is surgical excision with clear resection margin. The authors of this study report a case of surgical excision for post-traumatic intramuscular hemangioma of the chest wall with review of literature.

  • Atlantoaxial rotatory dislocation [AARD] is an uncommon disorder of childhood in which clinical diagnosis is generally difficult and often made late. It is very rare in adults because of the unique biomechanical features of the atlantoaxial articulation. We report a case of post-traumatic AARD in an adult. Reduction was difficult to obtain by skull traction and gentle manipulation. Therefore, the patient was treated surgically by an open reduction, transpedicular screw fixation, and posterior C1-2 wiring with graft. The normal atlantoaxial relation was restored with disappearance of torticollis. Postoperatively, the patient remains neurologically intact and has radiographic documentation of fusion. Atlantoaxial transpedicular screw fixation can be one of the treatment options for the AARD.

  • It has recently been reported that long-standing post-traumatic open bite can be successfully corrected with botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection into the anterior belly of the digastric muscle (ABDM). The report documented an individual with bilaterally symmetrical and otherwise unremarkable anterior digastric musculature. However, the existence of variant anterior digastric musculature is common and may complicate the management of anterior open bite with BTX-A injection. Screening for variant ABDM can be accomplished via ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Screening for variant ABDM should be performed prior to BTX-A injection in order to account for musculature that may exert undesired forces, such as inferolateral deviation, on the anterior mandible in patients with anterior open bite.

  • Talar fracture and total dislocation, each known as one of rare injuries mainly caused by high-energy trauma, tend to cause avascular necrosis, post-traumatic arthritis, non-union, skin necrosis and infection because of weak blood supply. The authors have experienced and reports a total talus dislocation of 16 year old male associated with medial malleoalr fracture, who showed relatively good result by early reduction and operation.

  • Motion of the metatarsophalangeal joints is essential for the normal gait. Therefore it is important to recover the motion of normal joint in the treatment of stiffness of the metatarsophalangeal joints. However, there have been no report about the treatment of stiffness of the four lateral lesser metatarsophalangeal joints yet. We report an experience that good clinical and radiographic results were obtained after resection arthroplasty for the post-traumatic stiffness of the four lateral lesser metatarsophalangeal joints.

  • A severe crushing injury of the chest produce a very striking syndrome referred to as traumatic asphyxia. This syndrome is characterized by bluish-red discoloration of the skin which is limited to the distribution of the valveless veins of the head and neck. And also if it is characterized by bilateral subconjunctival hemorrhages and neurological manifestations. But these clinical entities faded away progressively in a few weeks. Apporximately 90% of the patients who live for more than a few hours will recover from traumatic asphyxia when it occurs as a single entity. And so, death results from either severe associated injuries of from subsequent infection, rather than from pulmonary or cardiac insufficiency in traumatic asphyxia. We have experienced 4 cases of traumatic asphyxia with severe crushing thoracic injuries at department of the chest surgery, Captial Armed forces General Hospital during about 3 years from April 1977 to Aug. 1980. The 1st 22 year-old male was struct 2$\frac{1}{2}$ ton truck on the road and was transferred to this hospital immediately. He had taken tracheostomy due to severe dyspnea with contusion pneumonia and for removal of a large amount of bronchial secretion. The 2nd case was 23 year-old male who was got buried in a chasm. In this case, the heavy metal post tumbled over him back while at work. The 3rd case was 39 year-old male who leapt out of a window in 5th story while fire broke out in living room by oil stove heating. He had multiple rib fracture with right hemothor x and right colle's fracture and pelvic bone fracture. The last 22 year-old male was run over by a gun carriage. The wheel of this gun carriage passed over his thorax and right chin. He was brought to this hospital by helicopter. when he was first examined at emergency room, he was in semicomatose state and has pneurmomediastinum with multiple rib fracture and severe subcutaneous emphysema. As soon as he arrived, bilateral closed thoracostomy was performed and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was done. In hospital 8th weeks, chest series showed fibrothorax in right side even if chest wall stabilized. All 4 cases had multiple petechiae over their facees and chest and bilateral subconjunctival hemorrhages referred to as traumatic asphyxia. 3 cases except one case who received splenectomy, had been suffered from contusion pneumonia and had been treated with respiratory care. In these 3 cases, they had warning of impending injury before accident, and took a deep breath hold it and braces himself. And also, even if he had not impending fear in remaining one case, he had taken a deep breath and had got valsalva maneuver for pulling off the heavy metal post. Intrathoracic pressure rose suddenly and resulted to traumatic asphyxia in this situation. All these cases were recovered completely without sequelae except one fibrothorax, right.
