최근 평균수명의 연장과 진단 및 치료 방법의 발달로 원발성 중복암의 발견율이 높아지고 있다. 폐와 간에 발생한 중복암, 특히 동시성 중복암에 대한 보고는 매우 드물다. 저자 등은 만성기침을 호소하는 73세 남자에서 폐의 편평상피세포암을 진단한 후, 복부초음파에서 간 종괴를 발견하여 폐암의 전이를 의심하였으나 FDG-PET에 간 전이가 없어서 초음파 유도로 간 생검을 시행한 결과 간세포암을 진단하여, 폐와 간의 동시성 중복암을 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 더불어 보고한다.

악성 골종양의 사지 구제술이 보편화 되었으나 슬관절 주위의 골육종환자 중 예상되는 하지부동이 5 cm 이상 되는 경우의 재건 술식의 선택은 아직 논란이 많다. 양측 골단판 중 하나를 희생하는 것이 불가피한 미성숙 소아의 슬관절 주위 악성골종양에서 가장 이상적인 재건술은; 1)인접 골 단판을 손상하지 않고, 2)가동관절을 유지할 수 있으며, 3) 일차술식이 추후 하지 연장술에 방해가 되지 않아야 할 것으로 생각된다. 저자들은 4세 원위 대퇴골 간부 골육종을 분절절제술 후 저온 열처리 자가골 재삽입술로 재건하였다. 술 후 6개월에 대퇴골 과 열처리 자가골 근위부의 불유합, 열처리 자가골의 흡수 및 파괴 와 내고정물의 해리가 발생하여 환자의 근위 대퇴골을 동종골 간단부에 안착시키는 술식을 이용하여 3개월 만에 근위부 골유합을 얻었으며 기능적 결과도 양호하여 보고하고자 한다.

Gastrointestinal motility consists of phasic slow-wave contractions and the migrating motor complex (MMC). Eupatilin (Stillen$^{(R)}$) has been widely used to treat gastritis and peptic ulcers, and various cytokines and neuropeptides are thought to be involved, which can affect gastrointestinal motility. We performed a study to identify the effects of eupatilin on lower gastrointestinal motility with electromechanical recordings of smooth muscles in the human ileum and colon. Ileum and colon samples were obtained from patients undergoing bowel resection. The tissues were immediately stored in oxygenated Krebs-Ringer's bicarbonate solution, and conventional microelectrode recordings from muscle cells and tension recordings from muscle strips and ileal or colonic segments were performed. Eupatilin was perfused into the tissue chamber, and changes in membrane potentials and contractions were measured. Hyperpolarization of resting membrane potential (RMP) was observed after administration of eupatilin. The amplitude, AUC, and frequency of tension recordings from circular and longitudinal smooth muscle strips and bowel segments of the ileum and colon were significantly decreased after admission of eupatilin. Eupatilin elicited dose-dependent decreases during segmental tension recordings. In conclusion, eupatilin (Stillen$^{(R)}$) showed inhibitory effects on the human ileum and colon. We propose that this drug may be useful for treating diseases that increase bowel motility, but further studies are necessary.

Diverticulosis of the small intestine is a rare entity, compared with that of duodenum or colon, and is found in only 1% of autopsied patients. The main complications are diverticulitis with or without a perforation, obstruction and hemorrhage, which are associated with a high mortality. Intussusception is primarily a disease of childhood; with only 5 to 10% of cases occurring in adults. In contrast to childhood intussusception, 90% of adult intussusception cases are had an associated pathologic processes. An inflammatory fibroid polyp is an uncommonly localized non-neoplastic lesion of the gastrointestinal tract. It occurs most often in the stomach and secondly in the ileum. It rarely occurs in other organs such as the colon, jejunum, duodenum and esophagus. We report a case of jejunal diverticulitis with a perforation combined with intussusception caused by an inflammatory fibroid polyp. A 78-year-old female presented with abdominal pain, fever and chill. Contrast CT scan showed intussusception of the ileum. The patient was treated with a small bowel segmental resection. After surgery, the specimen showed jejunal diverticulitis with perforation.

Ameloblastoma is an aggressive benign odontogenic epithelial tumour that may arise from the enamel organ, remnants of dental lamina, or the lining of an odontogenic cyst. It is usually categorized into solid or multicystic, unicystic, and peripheral types. Treatment ofameloblastomas include conservative methods such as marsupialisation, enucleation, and curettage; and radical treatments such as marginal or segmental resection. Radical treatments have resulted in lower recurrence rates; however, may also encounter esthetic, functional, and reconstructive problems. Unicystic ameloblastoma has been considered less aggressive and a lower recurrence tendency. Thus, many authors have recommended conservative treatment in cases of unicystic ameloblastoma. An 11 year-old boy presented with displaced second and third molars by luminal unicystic ameloblastoma in the mandible. Cyst enucleation, curettage, and third molar extraction were done. No signs of recurrence or esthetic problems such as facial asymmetry were seen radiologically and clinically, up to 8 years 2 months postoperatively.

Intussusception primarily occurs in children and is uncommon in adults. Moreover, intussusception caused by intestinal tuberculosis is very rare. We report a case of intussusception induced by intestinal tuberculosis. A 53-year-old man presented to our hospital with complaints of cough and sputum for 2 weeks. We started anti-tuberculosis medication as the patient's sputum acid-fast staining was positive. After 4 days of treatment, the patient developed abdominal cramping pain. Imaging studies showed ileo-ileal type intussusception. The patient underwent segmental resection of the small bowel and intestinal tuberculosis was confirmed on histological examination. He recovered after surgery and was discharged on anti-tuberculosis medication.

Since the insertion of self expandable metalic stent[SEMS has became popular method for hollow organ stenosis, many attempts for further apply the stent to airway stenosis as an simple procedure has been made, but intrabronchial migration of stent or occurrence of inflammatory granuloma around stent develop occasionally and sometimes it worsen bronchial stenosis further more. This report describes 2 case of surgically treated bronchial restenosis in whom intrabronchial stent were applied for release of bronchial stenosis. Our surgical option was pneumonectomy and bronchoplasty with sleeve right middle and upper lobectomy respectively. During the operation we found the SEMSs were tightly impacted in restenotic bronchial lumen with overgrowth of granulation tissues. The bronchial obstructions occupied more than 90% of lumens in both cases, and needed much complicated procedure to be relieved. Therefore, even though the insertion of SEMS remains as a prcedure determined by the physician`s preference, it has to be considered prudently that the use of SEMS can cause severe restenosis and the surgeon has more difficulties in performing segmental resection of restenotic bronchus in patient with SEMS previously inserted. Throughout these experiences we can conclude that the insertion of SEMS must be performed only in very selected cases of bronchial stenosis.

A vitelline duct (VD) anomaly is a relatively common congenital abnormality of the umbilical area. The anomalies include patent vitelline duct (PVD), cyst, fistula or sinus. The incidence is approximately 2% of the populations, but development of symptoms is rare. Recently, we experienced two cases; PVD accompanied by a small omphalocele and intestinal volvulus due to mesenteric band between Meckel's diverticulum and the mesentery. Thereafter,we evaluated the data of vitelline duct anomalies for 27 years. From 1980 to 2006, 18 cases of VD anomalies were reviewed based on the hospital records retrospectively. There were 15 boys and 3 girls and age ranged from 2 days to 15 years. Among the 18 cases, 15 cases were symptomatic and consisted of Meckel's diverticulum (10 cases), PVD (4 cases) and umbilical polyp (1 case). Three asymptomatic cases of Meckel's diverticulum were found incidentally were and were observed without resection. Ten cases of Meckel's diverticulum were presented with intestinal bleedings (4 cases), intestinal obstructions (5 cases) and perforation (1 case). Wedge resections and segmental resections of ileum were performed in 8 patients and 2 patients, respectively. Postoperative complications were adhesive ileus (1 case) and wound seroma (1 case). Small omphaloceles were accompanied in two of 4 PVD patients. There was 1 small omphalocele case which was accompanied by a prolapse of ileum. In summary, VD anomalies were more common in male and more than half of them were found in patients less than 1 year of age. PVD was diagnosed most frequently in neonates. Meckel's diverticulum presented with intestinal obstruction more frequently than bleeding.

저나트륨혈증은 항암화학요법 중에 발생하는 전해질 장애 중의 하나이며, 조기에 발견하여 치료하지 않을 경우 급사할 수 있다. 저나트륨혈증을 유발하는 여러 원인중에 항이뇨호르몬과다분비증후군(syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone, SIADH)이 항암화학요법을 시행받은 환자들에게서 발생하였다고 보고되고 있다. SIADH를 유발하는 항암제는 아직까지 몇 가지 외에는 많이 알려져 있지 않다. 본 예는 위암으로 위전절제술, 비장절제술, 횡행결장구역절제술을 시행 받은 55세 여자로 수술 후 복막전이가 발견되어 S-1 ($80\;mg/m^{2}$)과 cisplatin ($60\;mg/m^{2}$)을 이용한 항암화학요법 중 SIADH가 발생하였다. 환자는 3% 생리식염수를 투여한 후 저나트륨혈증이 정상화되어 퇴원하였다.
