Background and Objectives : Based on histological findings, intracordal cysts are divided in two subtypes : retention cysts and epidermoid cysts. They are typically located in the superficial layer of the lamina propria and appeared as opaque ovoid buldging masses underlying the epithelium. They are characterized by unilateral diminished mucosal wave on stroboscopy. In this article, we report some cases of patients with an oval shaped-yellowish flat cyst. Materials and Method : At the clinic of the department of otorhinolaryngology in Gangnam Severance Hospital, with 3 female complained of hoarseness as subjects, using the stroboscopy we checked preoperative and postoperative vocal cord and operative findings. Surgery was performed under general anesthesia by the senior authors. All patients noted subjectively that their performing voice was improved. Results : During surgery, an oval shaped-yellowish flat cystic lesion was distinguished from normal epithelium. On palpation of this area with microforceps and cottons, the yellowish discharge was noted to move out from the opening of the cyst. In one case, the cyst was ruptured but remove the capsule completely. In other cases, sulcus was noted at the oppsite site. Conclusion : Because of the opening, the cyst was not easy to dissect and remove completely. After the debris was move out, fibrosis around the opening and invaginated epithelium extending into the deeper layers to the fold. The cyst was must removed carefully and completely for improvement of voice quality before evolving into a sulcus vocalis.

본 교실에서 시행했던 후두미세수술 1900례중에서 술후 성대낭종으로 확진된 83례를 대상으로 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 전체 후두미세수술 1900례 중 성대낭종이 차지하는 비율은 83례로 4.4%였다. 2) 성대낭종 83례중 유표피낭종은 27례로 32.5%. 저류낭종은 56례로 67.5%를 차지하였다. 3) 성별분포는 83례의 성대낭종중 여성이 55례(66.3%). 남성이 28례 (33.7%)로 여성에서 호발하였고 저류 낭종에서는 남녀비가 17 : 39. 유표피낭종에서는 11 : 16으로 나타났다. 4) 이학적검사 소견으로서 유표피낭종은 보다 진단이 용이하여 술전 이학적 검사상 63%에서 낭종을 의심할 수 있었으나 저류낭종은 성대 폴립이나 결절 등으로 오인되는 경우가 많았고 술전 진단과 술후 진단이 일치하는 경우는 34%에 지나지 않았다. 5) 병리 조직학적 검사상 유표피낭종은 중층 평편상피로 구성된 막을 가지고 있고 내부는 대개 PAS 음성인 케라틴과 콜레스테롤양(cholesterol-like)물질을 포함하고 있고 저류낭종은 원주 또는 입방세포로 구성되어있는 막을 가지고 있으며 주로 PAS양성인 점액 분비물을 내부에 포함하고 있다. 6) 애성 발생과 관련된 유발 요인으로는 성대과용후 33례, 상기도감염후 16례로 성대과용과 상기도감염이 주요한 유발 요인으로 나타났고 성대낭종의 발생에 수다스러움(talkativeness)이 관련성 있게 나타났고 저류낭종에서 관련성이 더욱 높게 나타났다. 7) 발병부위는 대부분에서 막성대유리연의 중간부 및 전방부 1/3에 발생하였고 수술결과는 저류낭종 50례 중 12례에서만 낭종의 파열없이 완전제거가 가능하였으며 유표피낭종은 24례 중 16례에서 낭종의 파열없이 완전제거가 이루어져 저류낭종이 유표피낭종에 비해 파열없이 완전제거가 매우 어려움을 알 수 있었다. 8) 수술전후의 음성만족도는 전체적으로 59%를 나타내어 성대폴립에서의 만족도와의 유사한 결과를 보였다.m)은 각각 0.60, 0.44, 0.40%로 시험초기와 비슷한 수준이었다.의성있게 최대발성지속시간은 감소하고, 평균호기류율은 증가하였으며, 발성기류량과 성문하압은 여자환자에서만 의미 있게 각각 감소하거나 증가하였다. 이상의 결과는 정상인과 성대용종 환자에 있어서 객관적인 공기역학적 검사결과를 보여주며 이는 성대용종 환자의 음성이상에 대한 상태판정이나 치료 후 효과 판정에 기본자료로 이용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.야 할 것으로 생각된다. 발생과 피해정도를 예측하여 벼멸구 방제에 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.5) 실험 3에서는 zygote의 VS1 에 노출시간에 따른 생존율을 조사한 결과 융해후 2-cell (91.6, 88.5 및 88.9%) 및 배반포기 (83.3, 74.3 및 69.4%) 까지 배발달율은 1,2 및 3분간의 노출시간에 따른 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 융해후 노출시간에 따른 할구수에서도 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다 (36.4$\pm$4.76, 32.4$\pm$4.67 및 27.6$\pm$4.52). 이상의 결과에서 OPP vitrification 방법은 EFS 또는 EDS 동결보존액에 따른 유의적인 차이 없이 이용될 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 배발달단계에 따른 생존율은 zygote 의 초기배는 2, 4, 8, 상실배 및 배반포기보다 유의적으로 저조한 생존율을 보였다. Zygote의 VS1에 노출시간에 따른 생존율도 1 분간의 노풀시간에서 높은 배발달율을 보였다. OPP vitrification 동결보존방법으로 생쥐수정란의 동결보존에 유용하게 이용가능한 것으로 판단된다.l the training process, the subject, and area of research, can be pointed out one of the flimsy in our researches of science education.

Background and Objectives For patients with polyps and cysts, glottal gaps resulting from their lesions have negative respiratory effects when they vocalize. Phonatory Aerodynamic System is clinically used, but is often limited in the measurement of vowels. So the researchers attempted to verify the usefulness of Phonatory Aerodynamic System by comparing differences in respiratory characteristics and patterns which can be measured by the level of connected speech. Materials and Method Among the subjects who were diagnosed through a stroboscopy, there were 33 patients with polyps and 23 patients with cysts. Then, 36 subjects who were found to have no specific findings through a stroboscopy and perceptual test were selected to the normal group. We compared respiratory characteristics and patterns. And compared vocal polyps and cysts before and after laryngeal micro surgery (LMS). Results First, difference in respiratory patterns between the normal group and the patients with polyps and cysts were examined to show that breath groups, breath group syllables, and expiratory·inspiratory volume were significantly higher in the polyp/cyst group than those in the normal group, indicating that precision was lowered during the conversation, due to reduction in speech intelligibility and interruption of communication. Second, there were significant differences in maximum phonation time, mean flow rate, and subglottal pressure among respiratory characteristics, breath groups, breath group syllables, and inspiratory volume before and after LMS, which appeared to be similar to the normal group. Conclusion The understanding of respiratory characteristics and patterns produced by patients in connected speech which is most similar to natural speech was found to be the objective and useful method for examining characteristics of the subjects.

For the purpose of analysis of clinical and pathological characteristics in mediastinal tumors and cysts, 82 patients with mediastinal tumors and cysts treated in the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery in Chosun University Hospital during the period from January 1978 to December 1994 were reviewed. There were 49 male and 33 female patients in the study. Age ranges from 10 months to 84 years, with the mean 37.2 years. Frequently encountered symptoms and signs were dyspnea[40.2% , abnormal breathing sound[37.8% , chest pain[35.7% , cough[26.8% , and 18.2% of patients were asymptomatic. The most frequent tumor was anterosuperior mediastinum [59.8% followed by middle[24.4% and posterior mediastinum[15.8% . The malignant tumors were found in 35 cases[42.7% . Successful removal of the mass was possible in all the benign mediastinal masses[57.3% . But in the malignant cases, the surgical removal was possible in 18 cases and other inoperable cases were treated by radiation and chemotherapy. The postoperative complications occurred in 9 cases. Usual complications were bleeding[4 cases , wound infection[3 cases , pneumothorax[1 case and vocal cord paralysis[1 case . In the pathologic viewpoint, teratodermoid tumors[22.0% were the most frequent tumor followed by thymomas[19.5 , benign cysts[15.8% , lymphomas[13.4% and neurogenic tumors[8.5% .

Background and Objective：A post-operative hypertrophic scar of the anterior neck is the leading complaint of the patients who underwent conventional thyroid surgery. In order to minimize the post-operative scar of the anterior neck, we performed thyroidectomy via axillary approach using operating microscope and a specialized retractor to determine technical feasibility. Patients and Methods：From January 2005 to December 2006, we performed thyroidectomy via axillary approach under operating microscope(f=400mm, ${\times}2.5$；OPMI $pico^{(R)}$；Zeiss, Germany) for benign unilateral nodule in 25 cases(all female, average age 34.5yrs). Under general anesthesia less than 7cm of skin incision was made in the axilla of ipsilateral side. A subcutaneous tunnel went over the pectoralis major muscle and the clavicle, and then through the sternocleidomastoid muscle and sternothyroid muscle was excised. The area around the thyroid was sufficiently dissected, and then a retractor designed for exposure via axillary approach was placed within the tunnel and under operating microscope thyroidectomy was performed. Results：There were 17 cases of thyroid nodulectomy and 8 cases of subtotal lobectomy. The mean average operative time was 102.64minutes. Postoperative complications included one case of postoperative bleeding, one case of temporary vocal cord paralysis, two cases of delayed wound healing, two cases of paresthesia of shoulder and arm, and two cases of hypertrophic scar of the axilla. Postoperative histopathology includes 17 cases of adenomatous hyperplasia, six cases of cyst, and two cases of follicular adenoma. For all cases hospitalization period was two days. Conclusion：Thyroidectomy via axillary approach under operating microscope has a good cosmetic advantage without a post-operative scar of the anterior neck. The procedure is simple due to direct vision using operating microscope, easy to identify important structures by magnifying them, and therefore surgical time can be reduced.
