현대의 교정치료에 있어 치열궁의 문제뿐 아니라 안모에 관한 비중이 높아지고 있고, 특히 안모형태를 결정하는 연조직의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 과거의 교정학 발달을 살펴볼 때 두부방사선 계측사진을 통한 경조직성장에 관한 연구는 많이 이루어 졌으나 연조직 성장변화에 관한 연구는 아직 미비하다고 볼 수 있다. 특히 국내에서의 이러한 연구는 연구대상자 수와 분석방법, 계측방법에 있어서 상당한 다양성을 보이고, 성장변화에 대한 연구는 태부족한 현실이다. 이에 본 연구는 한국인 남.녀 6세에서 17세 사이의 악안면 성장과 발육에 관한 준종단적 연구의 일부로 시행되었으며 3년간에 걸쳐 전신질환이 없고 발육상태가 양호하며 정상교합을 갖는 6-17세의 남자 409명과 여자 436명의 아동을 대상으로 하였다. 이들 아동의 성장에 따른 안면부 연조직의 변화양상을 연구하기 위해 두개안면계측사진을 촬영하여 안모의 형태, 입술의 위치 및 형태, 코의 형태 그리고 입술의 두께 등을 계측한 후 연령별, 성별 평균과 표준편차를 구하고 도표로 표시하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 결 론 1. 일반적으로 안모의 형태(facial form)는 여자에서보다 남자에서 더 장기간 성장이 지속되었으며 안면의 상부에 비하여 안면 하부구조의 길이가 더욱 큰 증가율을 보였다. 2. 상순과 하순의 두께는 연령의 증가에 따라 큰 변화가 없었으나, 서양아동에 비하여 돌출된 입술의 양상을 보였다. 3. 코의 수평방향으로의 길이는 연령의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. 4. 하안면부의 수평적인 두께는 연령에 따라 증가하였으며 상순의 비저부위의 두께[A-Sn(FH)]의 성장이 다른부위에 비하여 크게 증가하였다.

Purpose: Free flap reconstruction in the pediatric population is difficult. However, microsurgery has had remarkable success rates in children. The aim of study is to present our clinical experience using free flap for reconstruction of soft tissue defects in children and to describe long-term follow-up results. Methods: Between June 2002 and July 2010, 30 cases of pediatric reconstruction were performed with free flap. The authors analyzed several items, such as the kind of flap, associated complications, and growth problems. Results: Among the 30 cases, 21 cases were due to traffic accidents, 5 to cancer, and 4 to falls and other soft tissue defects. The lower leg and foot were the most common sites of the lesion. In the free flap operations we have done, 20 cases involved an anterolateral thigh perforator free flap, 6 a superficial circumflex iliac perforator free flap, and 4 an upper medial thigh perforator free flap. In early postoperative complications, partial necrosis was seen in 2 cases, infection in 1 case, and the hematoma in 1 case. A satisfactory success rate and functional results were achieved. Conclusion: Free flap reconstruction in children allows satisfactory function with no significant effect on growth. Free flaps are regarded as the primary choice for selective pediatric reconstructive cases.

Tissue conditioners have been used for treatment of denture stomatitis caused by wearing of dentures. Early studies pointed out Candide albicans (C. albicans) as main etiologic factor, and antifugal agents were added for control of the species. But there is a little information about broad comparison on the effect of tissue conditioners and antifungal agents added. The purpose of the present study was to compare the inhibiting effect of four tissue conditioners and one temporary soft liner on the growth of C. albicans for treatment of denture stomatitis using gel diffusion method by measuring diameter of the zone of growth inhibition. Three antifungal agents were added to each material for evaluation of the effect of added agents. Finally, observation was made to evaluate the effect of the loss of antifungal elements by aging of the specimen. The results of this study were obtained as follows : 1. Tempo had remarkable antifungal effect showing the zone of growth inhibition as 2.35 mm at 1st day, and was most effective on End: 4th and 7th day from incubation (p<0.05). But Coecomfort, Dura conditioner, Visco-gel, Coe-soft had little antifungal effect from the 1st day of incubation. 2. Nystatin was most effective showing 9.60-12.04 mm of zone of inhibition at the 1st day from incubation. The antifungal properties were reduced to amphotericin B, chlorhexidine and materials without agent (p<0.05), and the effect was diminished by time. 3. As pretreatment with amphotericin B, nystatin, chlorhexidine, Tempo was very effective at the 1st day from incubation showing zone of inhibition as 3.65, 12.04, 4.78 mm with addition of each agent. Dura conditioner had strongest antifungal effect at the next day as 2.86, 5.33, 1.29 mm of zone of inhibition, and yielding results of Coe-comfort, Tempo, Coe-soft was shown at 4th and 7th day from incubation (p<0.05). Taken all together, tissue conditioners have little antifungal effect except Tempo. Formation of the zone of growth inhibition was due to agents amphotericin B, nystatin, chlorhexidine and nystatin was most effective. Conclusively, it is advisable to select material which is effective on the growth of C. albican and consider addition of antifungal agents for treatment of denture stomatitis.

An extremely unusual case of epidermoid cyst showing diffuse parakeratosis and aggressive clinical behavior is presented. A destructive bone lesion with surrounding ill-defined soft tissue lesion was found by computed tomography in a 63 year-old man complaining of painful swelling of the right buttock. He had a history of surgical excision twice for epidermoid cysts of soft tissue of the right hip during recent one year On aspiration cytology, the aspirate was highly cellular and mostly composed of desquamated nucleated squamous cells. Operation finding revealed that the iliac bone was Irregularly destroyed and filled with gray-white cheesy material and necrotic bone bedris. Adjacent gluteus muscle showed scattered gray-white lesions. The curettage specimen showed bone necrosis and desquamated squamous cells filling the marrow spaces. The lesion within muscle revealed epidermoid cyst with diffuse parakeratosis.

Recently several studies have been developed not only to apply bone materials to bony defect, but also to use osteogenic and osteoinductive materials to form bone more effectively. In 1998 Mark et al applied gel formation of PRP(platelet-rich plasma) in bony transplantation for mandibular reconstruction as one of the method of stimulating bone formation in maxillofacial area, which is contain of varies growth factors. After he reported that PRP accelerate bone formation, which is used in varies bone transplantation and augmentation with a good result. Especially there are amount of growth factors in PRP, and PRP increase angiogenesis, cell division, and mesenchymal cell growth. Moreover it is capable of osteoconduction, hemostatitis, anti-infection, forming the shape at transplantation, ease of handling, and recipient site stability. So it is known that success rate is high in bone transplantation. However PRP need tissue adhesive to make plasma to solid form. Thrombin and calcium chloride, component of PRP, is extracted from autogenic donor. So it is expensive to extract and there is possibility of hepatitis, AIDS, and hematogenous metastasis. After all, tissue adhesive have the limitation and danger of use. So we are willing to introduce that we had get some idea after using PRF(platelet-rich fibrin) in the various hard and soft tissue bony defect, which is self extracted simply and contain growth factors.

The augmentation of soft tissue defects is one of the critical problems in the oral and maxillofacial surgery. Various types of graft materials, both autologous and non-autologous, have been used for the augmentation of soft tissue in the facial region. However, it is not easy to choose an ideal material for soft tissue augmentation because each has its advantages and disadvantages. An ideal graft material should meet the following criteria : it should not leave a scar at the area from which it was taken; should have less likelihood of causing infection; should feel natural after implanted; and should be not absorbed. Among the materials meeting these criteria, human dermis and artificial dermis are commonly used for clinical purposes. The present study was aimed to investigate and compare the resorption rate and the histological change following the use of the autologous dermis, the human homogenous dermis $Alloderm^{(R)}$, and the artificial dermis $Terudermis^{(R)}$ to reconstruct the soft tissue defect. Twenty mature rabbits of either sex, weighing about 2 ㎏, were used. Each rabbit was transplanted with the autologous dermis, $Alloderm^{(R)}$, and $Terudermis^{(R)}$ size $1{\times}1-cm$ at the space between the external abdominal oblique muscle and the external abdominal oblique fascia. They were then divided into 4 groups (n=5 each) according to the time elapsed after the surgery: 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks. The resorption rate was calculated by measuring the volume change before and after the transplantation, and H-E stain was preformed to observe the histological changes. The resorption rate after 8 weeks was 21.5% for the autologous dermis, 16.0% $Alloderm^{(R)}$, and 36.4% $Terudermis^{(R)}$, suggesting that $Alloderm^{(R)}$ is the most stable while $Terudermis^{(R)}$ is the most unstable. In microscopic examinations, the autologous dermis graft was surrounded by inflammatory cells and showed foreign body reactions. The epidermal inclusion cyst was observed in the autologous dermis graft. $Terudermis^{(R)}$ and $Alloderm^{(R)}$ demonstrated neovascularization and the progressive growth of new fibroblast. The results suggest that $Terudermis^{(R)}$ and $Alloderm^{(R)}$ can be availably for substituting the autologous dermis.

Free or pedicled vascularized fibular grafts (VFG) are useful for the reconstruction of large skeletal defects, particularly in cases of scarred or avascular beds, or in patients with combined bone and soft tissue defects. Compared to non-VFG, VEG, which contains living osteocytes and osteoblasts, maintains its own viability and serves as good osteoconductive and osteoinductive graft. Due to its many structural and biological advantages, the free fibular osteo- or osteocutaneous graft is considered the most suitable autograft for the reconstruction of long bone defects in the injured extremity. The traditional indication of VFG is the long bone and soft tissue defect, which cannot be reconstructed using a conventional operative method. Recently, the indications have been widely expanded not only for defects of midtibia, humerus, forearm, distal femur, and proximal tibia, but also for the arthrodesis of shoulder and knee joints. Because of its potential to allow further bone growth, free fibular epiphyseal transfer can be used for the hip or for distal radius defects caused by the radical resection of a tumor. The basic anatomy and surgical techniques for harvesting the VFG are well known; however, the condition of the recipient site is different in each case. Therefore, careful preoperative surgical planning should be customized in every patient. In this review, recently expanded surgical indications of VFG and surgical tips based on the author's experiences in the issues of fixation method, one or two staged reconstruction, size mismatching, overcoming the stress fracture, and arthrodesis of shoulder and knee joint using VFG are discussed with the review of literature.

저등급의 섬유점액성 육종은 최근에야 진단적 분류가 이루어진, 드문 연부 조직 종양이다. 젊은 성인의 심부연부 조직에서 발생하는 경향이 있으며, 국소 재발이나 원격 전이가 가능하다. 진단적 범주가 확실히 정립되어 있지 않고 특정한 질환명으로 구분되고 있지 않다. 조직학적으로, 주로 소용돌이 양상으로 자라는 방추상세포와 점액성이나 섬유성 기질이 번갈아 관찰되는 것이 특징이다. 형태학적이나 면역조직학적 특징에 대한 세심한 고려가 상기 질환의 진단에 도움이 되며, 다른 양성이나 악성 연부 조직 종양과의 감별에 도움이 된다. 흉백에 발생한 저등급의 섬유점액성 육종을 경험하였기에, 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Orthodontic treatment of cleft patients is difficult as the growth is different from that of normal ones. So it is very important to know the characteristic features of the craniofacial morphology and growth pattern in unilateral cleft lip and palate patients. The materials for this study consisted of 55 normal males and 50 unilateral cleft lip and palate ones who received cheiloplasty and palatoplasty previously. The cleft subjects were divided into 4 groups according to their ages kto find out the growth pattern of hard and soft tissue, and to compare the features with those of normal ones. Each cephalogram analysed by McNamara method and others. The obtained results were as follows 1. In the unilateral cleft lip and palate subjects, forward growth of the maxilla was smaller than that of normal ones from 9 years old. So the maxilla was retruded. The maxillary incisors were severely retruded in all age groups. 2. The mandibular overall length and its anteroposterior position did not show any significant differences between two groups. But the height of ramus was very short and the mandible had vertical growth tendency to compensate for undergrowth of the maxilla in cleft subjects after 12 years of age. 3. Horizontal growth of the soft tissue in middle face was smaller than that of any other facial region from 9 years old. The vertical growth rate of upper lip was decreased as growing old. 4. In cleft subjects, the upper and lower facial component angle and the facial convexity angle were large. So their facial profile changed to straight or concave as growing old.
