  • Even in the hands of the expert endoscopists, an occasional instrumental perforation of the esophagus occurs. But instrumental perforation of the esophagus should not be difficult to diagnose if the possibility is borne in mind. Occasionally patient with esophageal perforations show little reaction at first, but usually they develop systemic manifestation if surgical management is delayed. Early surgical drainage of esophageal perforation is very important & effective therapeutic method. The delayed surgical treatment of esophageal perforation would have increased the morbidity & mortality by allowing mediastinitis & empyema thoracis. We have experienced 6 cases of delayed surgical management of instrumental perforation of esophagus from May 1974 to April 1986 in the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Yonsei University, college of the medicine. The ages ranged from 4 years to 57 years. The underlying esophageal diseases consisted of esophageal stricture in 3 cases, foreign bodies in the esophagus in 2 cases and esophageal ca. in one case. Most clinical manifestations on admission were high fever, chest discomfort, chest pain, dysphagia and subcutaneous emphysema. Most complications due to esophageal rupture were acute mediastinitis with or without empyema thoracis. Failure to diagnose promptly and failure to promptly institute adequate treatment undoubtedly were largely responsible for this patients death. All 6 patients had been taken delayed surgical drainage more than 24 hours following esophageal perforation. One patient had been in the open drainage state for long time and the another patient has been in the tracheostomy with postintubation vocal cord ulceration. The third patient died due to respiratory failure and sepsis due to fulminant mediastinitis & empyema thoracis. Even if the patients with esophageal perforation have been taken delayed surgical management, the patients should be survived with aggressive & effective surgical drainage with intensive post-operative care.

  • Esophageal perforation is a rare but potentially fatal complication of robot-assisted thyroidectomy (RAT). Herein, we report the long-term outcome of an esophageal reconstruction with a jejunal free flap for esophageal rupture after RAT. A 33-year-old woman developed subcutaneous emphysema and hoarseness on postoperative day1 following RAT. Esophageal rupture was diagnosed by computed tomography and endoscopy, and immediate surgical exploration confirmed esophageal rupture, as well as recurrent laryngeal nerve injury. We performed a jejunal free flap repair of the 8-cm defect in the esophagus. End-to-side microvascular anastomoses were created between the right external carotid artery and the jejunal branches of the superior mesenteric artery, and end-to-end anastomosis was performed between the external jugular vein and the jejunal vein. The right recurrent laryngeal nerve injury was repaired with a 4-cm nerve graft from the right ansa cervicalis. Esophagography at 1 year after surgery confirmed that there were no leaks or structures, endoscopy at 1 year confirmed the resolution of vocal cord paralysis, and there were no residual problems with swallowing or speech at a 5-year follow-up examination. RAT requires experienced surgeons with a thorough knowledge of anatomy, as well as adequate resources to quickly and competently address potentially severe complications such as esophageal rupture.

  • Purpose: The standard treatment of esophageal cancer is the Ivor-Lewis operation, which consists of an abdominal phase involving gastric tube formation, and a chest phase involving esophagectomy and anastomosis. We aimed to report our experience of performing thoracic esophagectomy with the laparoscopic gastric pull up (LGPU) technique and its surgical outcomes. Methods: Clinicopathologic data and short-term surgical outcomes of 14 patients who underwent LGPU for thoracic esophageal cancer from August 2008 to May 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Mean age of the patients was 62.3 years and mean body mass index was $21.7kg/m^2$. Eleven patients had medical comorbidities. Patients' mean American Society of Anesthesiologists score was 2. Mean operation time was 428.5 minutes, with the mean abdominal operation time being 138.9 minutes. There was no open conversion case. Three patients had pneumonia, three patients had surgical site infection, and one patient had subcutaneous emphysema within 30 days after surgery. One patient had minor anastomosis site leakage. There was one 30-day mortality case. One patient with postoperative aspiration pneumonia developed acute respiratory distress disease, and died due to sepsis. Mean postoperative intensive care unit stay was 3.5 days, and mean postoperative hospital stay was 20.6 days. Nasogastric tubes were removed on average at 3.4 days, and mean oral intake time was 3.4 days. Conclusion: If the gastrointestinal surgeon has extensive experience in laparoscopic procedures, LGPU will be a safe and feasible technique for thoracic esophagectomy in patients with intrathoracic esophageal cancer.

  • The current study aimed to explore the types and frequencies of uncommon complications associated with third molar extractions based on a scoping review of case reports and case series. The study used an electronic literature search based on PubMed and Embase up to March 31, 2020, with an update performed on October 22, 2021. Any case reports and case series that reported complications associated with third molar extractions were included. The types of complications were grouped and the main symptoms of each type of complication were summarized. A total of 51 types of uncommon complications were identified in 248 patients from 186 studies. Most types of complications were post-operative. In the craniofacial and cervical regions, the most frequent complications included iatrogenic displacement of the molars or root fragments in the craniofacial area, late mandibular fracture, and subcutaneous emphysema. In other regions, the most frequent complications include pneumomediastinum, pneumorrhachis, pneumothorax, and pneumopericardium. Of the patients, 37 patients had life-threatening uncommon complications and 20 patients had long-term/irreversible uncommon complications associated with third molar extractions. In conclusion, a variety of uncommon complications associated with third molar extractions were identified. Most complications occurred in the craniofacial and cervical regions and were mild and transient.

  • 연구배경 : 외과적 기관절개술(surgical tracheostomy, ST)은 수술장에서 외과의에 의해 시행되며 중환자의 경우 수술장으로 이동은 위험을 수반하고, 또한 수술장과 외과의가 확보되지 않아 적기에 시행되지 못하는 경우도 흔하다. ST에 대한 대안으로 최근 경피적 확장 기관절개술(percutaneous dilational tracheostomy, PDT)이 구미에서 많이 시행되고 있으나 국내에서는 아직 보편화되지 않아 PDT의 시술 용이성 및 합병증을 ST와 비교해 보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 7일 이상 기계 환기 중이거나 인공 기도 확보가 요구되는 중환자 38명을 대상으로 ST(n=18) 또는 PDT(n=20)를 시행하였다. PDT군에 비해 ST군의 여성 비가 높은 것 외에 양 군 간에 임상적 특성은 차이가 없었다. ST군은 이비인후과 전공의에 의해, PDT군은 내과 전공의 또는 호흡기내과의에 의해 각각 기관절개술이 시행되었다. PDT는 기관지경 보조하에 Ciaglia Percutaneous Tracheostomy Set(Cook Critical Care, Bloomington, USA)를 사용하였다. 양 군에서 시술 의사 미확보 등으로 당일 기관절개술이 이루어지지 못한 건수, 기관절개술 시술 소요 시간 및 기관절개술과 관련된 합병증 발생율 등을 비교하였다. 결 과 : 기관절개술이 결정된 후 당일 시행되지 못한 예는 ST군에서 11예(61%), PDT군에서는 3예(15%)였다(P<0.05). 시술 소요 시간은 ST군 $29.1{\pm}11.6$ 분, PDT군 $15.6{\pm}7.1$ 분이었다(P<0.0001). 기관절개술의 합병증은 ST군에서 T-cannula의 우발적 발관 l예, 피하기종 2예, 소량 출혈 2예, PDT군에서 기관내 관의 조기 발관 1예, 소량 출혈 2예 및 피하기종 1예가 발생하였다(P>0.05). 결 론 : PDT는 중환자에서 수술장 이동이나 외과의 확보의 필요 없이 즉시 시행할 수 있고, 술기 습득이 용이하며 합병증은 ST와 비교하여 차이가 없었다.

  • 배경: 자연성 종격동 기종은 어떤 뚜렷한 유발 요인이나 질환 없이 젊은 연령에서 발생하는 흔하지 않은, 양성의, 자연 치유 경과를 지닌 질환이다. 이번 연구의 목적은 이 질환의 본질을 다루는데 있어서의 우리의 경험을 재검토하고 평가와 관리에 있어서 입증할 만한 과정을 열거하는데 있다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년부터 2005년까지 마산삼성병원 흉부외과에서 종격동 기종으로 진단, 치료받은 성인 환자들을 대상으로 후향적인 연구 방법을 사용하였다. 결과: 평균 연령 26세(최소 15세에서 치대 65세)의 15명의 환자들(남자 14명, 여자 1명)을 대상으로 하였다. 임상증상은 12명($80\%$)의 환자에서 흉통, 5명($33\%$)의 환자에서 호흡곤란, 4명 ($26\%$)의 환자에서 경부 불편감을 호소하였다. 2명의 환자에서 흡입약제와 관련이 있었고, 3명의 환자에서 흡연력, 3명의 환자는 운동으로 인해 발생하였다. 자연성 종격동 기종의 소인으로는 천식과 같은 호흡기질환, 과도한 운동, 구토와 같은 것들이 있다. 이학적 소견으로 10명($77\%$)의 환자에서 피하기종이 관찰되었다. 흉부 X선과 CT는 모든 환자들에서 있어 진단에 유용했으며 특히 흉부 CT는 6명의 환자에서 폐 질환과의 연관성을 밝히기 위해 사용되었다. 식도 조영술과 기관지 내시경은 선별적으로 사용되었다. 15명($100\%$)의 환자 모두 입원치료를 받았는데 평균 재원기간은 3일이었다. 모든 환자들은 보존적 치료로 치료되었으며 외래 추적 관찰상 3년간 합병증인 재발은 나타나지 않았다. 결론: 대부분의 단순한 자연성 종격동 기종은 양성 질환이며 환자들 대부분에서 전형적인 흉통과 호흡곤란 그리고 피하기종이 관찰되었다. 흡입약제 사용은 아직은 자연성 종격동 기종의 주요원인은 아니나 흡입약제 사용환자에서 자연성 종격동 기종의 의심스러운 원인으로 증가추세에 있다.

  • 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.

  • 배경: 자연성 종격동 기종은 드문 질환으로 세계적으로 보고된 환자도 적다. 주로 젊은 남자에서 발병하며 양성의 자연 치유 경과의 질환으로 어떤 특별한 이유 없이 일어난다. 폐기포 파열을 일으키는 흉강내 압력 변화 이후 나타나게 된다. 두 병원의 임상 경험을 분석하여 적정한 치료에 도움이 되고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 후향적으로 2003년 3월부터 2010년 8월까지 자연성 종격동 기종 환자들을 연구하였다. 결과: 24명의 환자가 자연성 종격동 기종으로 진단되었다. 이들 24명의 환자는 18명의 남자와 6명의 여자로 구성되었고, 평균 나이는 18.9세였다(범위 10~33살). 초기 주요 증상은 흉부 통증(79.2%), 이후 통증(62.5%), 피하 기종(4 1.7%)이었고 유발 인자로 운동(16.7%), 기침(12.5%), 구토(12.5%) 등이었고 유발 인자가 없는 경우가 54.2%였다. 모든 환자에서 흉부 단순 촬영과 단층 촬영이 이루어졌으며, 25% 환자에서 진단을 위해 단층 촬영이 필요하였다. 백혈구 수치와 C반응 단백(CRP)가 측정되었는데 초기 평균 수치는 각각 $9,790{\pm}3,240/{\mu}L$$1.31{\pm}1.71mg/dL$, 최종 평균 수치는 $5,440{\pm}1,665/{\mu}L$$0.72{\pm}0.73mg/dL$이었다. 23명의 환자가 입원하였으며(평균 $5.0{\pm}1.8$일) 증상은 자연 치유되었으며 합병증은 없었다. 결론: 자연성 종격동 기종은 약한 염증성 증세를 보이는 양성 질환이며 종종 흉부 또는 인후 통증을 나타낸다. 바람직하지 못한 결과를 방지하기 위하여 비침습적인 검사로 이차성 원인이 배제되어야 한다. 합병증과 재발이 거의 없는 관계로 증상에 따라 외래 진료나 단기적인 입원이 합당하다고 하겠다.
