The purpose of this report is to introduce persistent left cranial vena cava (PLCVC) with persistent right aortic arch (PRAA) and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Case 1 was a Cocker Spaniel with PRAA and case 2 was a Maltese with PDA. PLCVC was enclosed at the sites of PRAA and PDA surgery; therefore, it was lifted dorsally during PDA and PRAA surgery. Surgery to repair congenital heart defects including PRAA and PDA is recommended for dogs that do not die of PLCVC at a young age.

The purpose of this study is to set a direction for the development of men's underwear after analyzing current applications for patent regarding men's special-purpose underwear. In terms of a research method, the disclosed patents and utility models were investigated using the patent information database provided by Korea Institute of Patent Information (KIPRIS, http://www.kipris.or.kr). For this, the patents applied from 1990 to October 2015 were targeted. The keywords used for patent search were 'men's underwear' and 'men's special-purpose underwear.' When searched by the keywords above, a total of 1,089 cases were found. Except for expired or cancelled ones, 243 cases were investigated. Then, annual application trends, current registrations on literature records, classification of utility model right holders and contents by topic were analyzed. In terms of data analysis, frequency analysis, crosstabulation analysis and multiple response analysis were conducted, using SPSS 18.0. The results found the followings: In terms of annual application trends, the number of applications for patent started to gradually increase since 2007. Since 2011, it has rapidly increased. In terms of the number of patent registrations, literature registration was far higher than utility model registration. In terms of application rights, 'individually registered (58.8%)' was higher than 'registered by the organization (41.2%).' Among 243 cases, 'underwear (58%)' was the highest, followed by 'men's underwear-related items (29.2%)' and 'thermals (8.2%).' According to analysis on the details of the patent applied for men's underwear, 'penis-scrotum separation' was most focused, followed by 'disposable product' 'airy features,' 'scrotum protection' and 'structure of underwear.'

The experience with operative treatment for total correction of Fallot at the department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Keimyung University Dong San Medical Center from July 1980 to July 1984 was reviewed. There were 37 males and 12 females and their ages ranged from 3 years to 30 years, with the average age of 12.2 years. Sixty nine point four percent of patients were younger than 15 years of age. The most frequent type of right ventricular outflow stenosis was the combined type [pulmonary valvular and infundibular stenosis] containing 41 patients [83.7%] and there were 9 deaths in this group. The major associated lesions included Patent foramen ovale in 20 patients [40.8%], Atrial septal defect in 7 patients [14.3%], Left superior vena cava in 4 patients [8.2%], Right sided aortic arch in 2 patients [4.1%] and Patent ductus arteriosus in 11 patient [2.0%]. The pulmonary valvotomy was performed in 41 patients and patch graft reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract was performed in 23 patients. In 11 patients the monocusp patches were used. Thirty-five patients [71.4%] had the right bundle branch block postoperatively. There were 11 postoperative deaths with hospital mortality rate of 22.4% and the leading causes of death were low output syndrome, bleeding, and cerebral embolism.

A patent is a right of intellectual properties to an inventor or its assignee for a limited period under an international law. Not only in an invention of new machines, but it is competitive for using and creating technology in the world based on the patents. Most of the business models are good examples for patented technology, however a statistical analyzing model could be another one. In this paper we study and analyze the patents for the statistical analyzing and data mining models which are currently applied and registered, and suggest a statistical tool for analyzing and categorizing patent data. For this study all the patents in Korea and U.S. are listed and searched to sample the only cases concerning statistics.

Multistage unifocalization and complete repair have been performed for pulmonary atresia ventricular septal defect and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries. We reported a case that divided major aortopulmonary collateral artery was changed into an aneurysm that compressed the left main bronchus. A 1-year-8-month old boy was operated. The Rastelli operation with left pulmonary artery reconstructuion ligation of patent ductus arteriosus and take-down of right Blalock-Taussing shunt was performed on the patient who had pulmonary atreisia ventricular septal defect patent ductus arteriosus and MAPCA at 1 year and 8 months of his age. He previously underwent the unifocalization and right B-T shunt at 9 months of age,. He repeatedly had difficulty in weaning from the mechanical ventilator, After removing the aneurysm from the divided MAPCA that compressed the left main bronchus externally it was possible to wean him from the mechanical ventilator.

A 15-year-old girl underwent successful surgical correction of double-outlet right ventricle [S.D.L.] subaortic ventricular septal defect, patent foramen ovale, and pulmonary hypoplasia with valvular stenosis. The operation consisted of an internal baffling connecting the left ventricle to the aorta through the ventricular septal defect. The pulmonary stenosis was corrected with the method of connection the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery bifurcation using the Hancock valve[18mm] contained conduit. This rare type of DORV seemed to be suitable for corrective surgery, and the patient`s condition is very good until present time (post operative 7 months).

Since a declaration between North and South Korea was adopted, North and South Korea has strengthened the interchange and cooperation between each other in many fields. Especially, the interchange and cooperation in the field of industrial property right, such as patent and trademark, are required to keep up with the age of the knowledge industry. But, until a recent date, there has been little interchange or cooperation in the field of industrial property right, and a few major companies were attempt to apply for the patent in North Korea through the Third country The system of industrial property laws in North and South Korea are very different because of time and political ideology barriers. To unify the system of industrial property laws in North and South Korea, firstly, North and South Korea must try to recognize and understand the dissimilarity between them. In this article, I compared the system of industrial property law of South Korea with that of North Korea to search commonalities and dissimilarities. Furthermore, it is needed to establish systematic devices for understanding of between North and South Korea, for instance, conducting a interdisciplinary seminar or dispatching a judge mutually. Finally, it is necessary to phase in a practical plan for unification. In the short run, mutual application and registration have to be authorized, and in the long view, unifying the practice of industrial property law service is needed. At the conclusion, the industrial property laws in North and South Korea can be unified systematically. In other words , to unify system of industrial property laws in North and South Korea, it is prerequisite that mutual understanding of industrial property laws and performance of the unify plan. The interchange and cooperation in this field will not only promote technical development but also create common interests of North and South Korea by expanding an opportunity for creating and utilizing industrial property.

The prevalence of patent foramen ovale (PFO) in healthy persons was estimated as about $10{\sim}25%$ and was up to 40% in patients with stroke. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was considered to be the most sensitive method to detect PFO and was used as the gold standard. Transcranial doppler sonography (TCD) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) during a contrast (saline bubble) injection has recently been proposed as an alternative detecting method for PFO. In this study, we would like to know the difference between TCD value and TEE value in subjects with cryptogenic ischemic stroke. We performed TCD and TEE tests to detect PFO on 64 patients (30 women and 34 men, mean age was 59.4 years) with cryptogenic ischemic stroke. PFO prevalence through TCD was 45.3% (29 of 64 patients) and the prevalence through TEE was 34.4% (22 of 64 patients). There was no statistical significance between PFO test and TCD test (P=0.206). But TCD had a sensitivity of 90.9% (20 of 22 patients), specificity of 78.6% (33 of 42 patients), positive predictive value of 69.0% (20 of 29 patients), and negative predictive value of 94.3% (33 of 35 patients). We concluded that TCD was a highly sensitive method for detecting a right-left shunt. Therefore, the non-invasive TCD test is a method more effective than the anti-invasive TEE test in the cost and evaluation of the existence or nonexistence of right to left shunt in addition to the screening method of the cerebrovascular disorder. Considering these points, TCD test could be recommended for patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke as a useful and convenient method for screening of the existence or nonexistence of a right to left shunt caused by PFO.

Aortopulmonary septal defect is rare congenital heart disease. An 8-year-old girl was diagnosed as a ventricular septal defect with patent ductus arteriosus at Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery of Chungnam National University Hospital. On operation, the defect was confirmed as an aortopulmonary septal defect [Type I], anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery from aorta [Type Ill] and patent ductus arteriosus. The defect was repaired anatomically with cardiopulmonary bypass. But she was not survived because of uncontrollable bleeding from aorta.

Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries is a rare congenital heart anomaly. We experienced two case of corrected transposition of great arteries, one [S,L,L] and one [I, D,D] associated with patent foramen ovale, ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. The patent foramen ovales were closed directly under right atriotomy, the ventricular septal defects were closed with Dacron patch under morphological left ventriculotomy and the pulmonary valvular and subvalvular stenosis were corrected under pulmonary arteriotomy. The postoperatively course was uneventful in case I, the permanent pacemaker was implanted in case ll.
