본 증례는 1년 전부터 갑작스럽게 복부팽만과 복통이 반복하다 내원 10일 전부터 심한 복통과 복부팽만, 구토가 발생하여 내원한 9세 남자 환자이다. 복부 X-선 촬영과 바륨 관장 등의 검사로 S상 결장 염전증을 진단하고 내시경적 염전 정복과 감압술 시도하였으나 실패하였다. 수술 시야에서 심하게 확장되고 비정상적으로 긴 S상 결장과 굵은 혈관이 포함된 결장간막이 관찰되었고 S상 결장의 원위부 및 근위부에서 좁아진 부위를 확인하여 이 부분을 포함한 S상 결장 절제술을 시행하였다. 이후 환자는 5년 동안의 추적관찰에서 증상의 재발이 없었다.

4, 8, 12, 20 주령의 미성숙 미니돼지에서 방사선과 초음파를 이용하여 복부 주요 장기의 형태학적 특징을 살펴보았다. 방사선 검사는 전반적인 장기의 형태를 확인하는 데 이용되는 가장 기본적이고 단순한 방법이다. 기본 복부방사선 사진에서 이용되는 평가해야 할 항목들은 우선 전반적인 복부세부음영의 정도, 간, 위, 비장, 신장, 방광, 장들의 위치, 크기, 형태, 변연, 후복강 평가이다. 초음파 검사는 이러한 주요 장기들의 내부 실질을 평가하는 데 주로 사용된다. 미니돼지는 개와 고양이와 비교했을 때 유사한 소견을 가진 것을 확인하였다.

Objectives : In Oriental Medicine, the improvement of constipation is very important for patients at the acute stage of cerebrovascular accident. For constipation, oral medicine has usually been used but is not available to stroke patients with dysphagia and mental disorder, and may bring about side effects on the gastrointestinal tract. In such cases, general enema has been used for assistant therapy, We needed to develop a more effective enema technique on constipation of stroke patients. Methods : Sixty-three patients were researched. We treated 29 patients with Bo-Ryu enema and 34 patients with general enema. To compare the effect of the Bo-Ryu enema group with that of the general enema group, we analyzed general characteristics, bowel movement, abdominal examination and related symptoms. Results : Sixty-three patients comprised the Bo-Ryu (n=29) and general (n=34) enema groups. Between the Bo-Ryu and general enema groups, the Bo-Ryu enema was more effective than the general enema in the number of bowel movements, total and corrected amount of stool, tonus of rectus abdominis muscle and abdominal discomfort. However, there were not significant differences in the power of abdominal muscle, digestion and physical power. Among the subgroups, Bo-Ryu enema group was most effective in the number of bowel movements, total amount of stool and tonus of rectus abdominis muscle, and Bo-Ryu enema group was best in the corrected amount of stool and abdominal discomfort. Conclusions : Bo-Ryu enema should be considered as an effective and safe treatment for patients with constipation during the acute stage of cerebrovascular accident.

10개월령 몸무게 20 kg의 수컷 풍산개가 내원 몇 시간 전 발생한 교통사고로 인한 우측 전지 파행을 주증으로 의뢰되었다. 신체검사상 점막은 창백한 색이었고, 피부에 다수의 열상과 호흡곤란 증세를 보였다. 혈액검사에서 적혈구 용적률은 정상이었으며, 백혈구 수치가 증가하였다. 복부 방사선 검사에서 전반적인 복막 선예도 소실이 확인되었고, 이는 초음파 검사를 통해 복수로 진단되었다. CT 검사상 간과 비장의 손상 부위에서 불규칙한 변연을 동반한 피막의 불연속성과 조영 증강이 나타나지 않는 정상 실질보다 낮은 밀도가 특징적인 병변이 확인되어, 간과 비장의 열상과 혈복을 진단하였다. 또한 초음파와 CT 검사에서 우연히 부비장이 진단되었다. 본 증례는 CT 검사를 이용하여 급성 복강내 출혈의 원인으로 간과 비장의 열상을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 폐경 여성의 비만 및 신체활동과 골관절염 유병의 관계를 파악하기 위해 국민건강영양조사 제 7기 2차 년도(2017) 자료를 이차분석한 연구이다. 연구대상은 국민건강영양조사 제 7기 2차 년도(2017)에 참여한 19세 이상의 폐경 여성 1,516명으로, 연구 자료는 국민건강영양조사 홈페이지에서 다운받았으며, 자료 분석은 SPSS 21.0 program을 이용하여 복합표본 분석법으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 골관절염 유병율은 체질량지수가 저체중이거나 정상이고 복부비만도 없는 여성에 비해 체질량지수가 비만전단계 이상이고 복부비만은 없는 여성은 1.88배, 체질량지수가 비만전단계 이상이고 복부비만도 있는 여성은 1.98배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 폐경 여성의 골관절염 예방을 위해서는 비만의 예방 및 관리가 필요하며, 비만은 체질량지수 뿐 아니라 허리둘레를 기준으로 한 복부비만을 동시에 고려하는 것이 필요하다고 할 것이다.

Sotos syndrome (SS, OMIM 117550) is characterized by prenatal and postnatal overgrowth with multiple congenital anomalies. However, there have been few cases of growth retardation caused by renal failure from infancy. We report a case of dysplasia of the bilateral kidneys with renal failure and poor postnatal growth. A 2-month-old boy visited the emergency room owing to poor oral intake and abdominal distension. He was born at the gestational age of 38 weeks with a birth weight of 4,180 g. After birth, he had feeding difficulty and abdominal distension. Upon physical examination, his height and weight were in less than the 3rd percentile, while his head circumference was in the 50th percentile on the growth curve. He also showed a broad and protruding forehead and high hairline. Blood laboratory tests showed severe azotemia; emergent hemodialysis was needed. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed bilateral renal dysplasia with multiple cysts and diffuse bladder wall thickening. A posterior urethral valve was suggested based on vesicoureterography and abdominal magnetic resonance findings. Results of a colon study to rule out congenital megacolon did not reveal any specific findings. The conventional karyotype of the patient was 46, XY. Array comparative genomic hybridization study revealed a chromosome 5q35 microdeletion including the NSD1 gene, based on which SS was diagnosed. We describe a case of SS presenting with end stage renal disease due to posterior urethral valve. The typical somatic overgrowth of SS in the postnatal period was not observed due to chronic renal failure that started in the neonatal period.

An acute colic in a 6-month-old Thoroughbred filly is described. The filly was presented with acute colic haracterized by rolling and pawing. Over a period of days she suffered from severe abdominal pain and subsequently died. ost mortem examination revealed the ileocecal intrssusception as a part invagination of the ileum into the cecum. It seems ogical to assume that the invagination occurred at the start of the illness. In addition, it is also noted the presence of Parascaris quorum in the stomach.

A two-month-old female Thoroughbred foal was referred to the Equine Hospital, Jeju Stud Fm, Korea Racing Association. The foal was presented with opening of the abdominal ring by congenital predisposition. In physical examination, the foal revealed a mild heating, fluctuant swelling at umbilicus. The umbilical hernia was diagnosed, and then modified umbilical herniorraphy was performed and resulted in successful treatment. We conclude this method is of great value within the six-month-old foal with hernial ring size less than 10 cm.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of late adult life. The tumor occurs principally in one of the extremities or in the abdominal cavity or retroperitoneum, but very rarely in the heart. We report a case of M.F.H. that arose from the posterior wall of the left atrium. A 50 years old woman was presented with signs and symptoms of severe congestive heart failure. On 2-D echocardiographic exam, a huge mass was found in the left atrium. The mass was excised under open heart surgery. Histologic examination revealed that the tumor was actually a malignant fibrous histiocytoma.

Objective: This study was designed to investigate the possibility of quantification of the diagnosis of abdominal coldness (AC) in patients with functional dyspepsia (FD). Methods: Forty-four patients with FD were enrolled in this study. Three Korean medicine doctors each randomly examined all abdomens. Diagnosis of AC was made by consensus of at least two of the doctors. Body temperature (oral by digital oral thermometer) and skin temperature (by digital infrared thermal imaging [DITI]) were measured, followed by administration of the Cold and Heat questionnaire (CHQ) and the Instrument of Pattern Identification for Functional Dyspepsia (IPIFD). Results: Of the 44 patients with FD, 22 were assigned to the AC group and 22 to the non-AC group. The concordance rate of diagnosis among the three doctors was 63.6% (28/44), with a ${\kappa}$ of 0.504, indicating means moderate agreement). Neither the oral nor the skin temperatures showed statistically significant differences between the AC and non-AC groups. However, the CHQ scores and 'Simultaneous Occurrence of Cold and Heat Syndromes pattern' scores of the IPIFD were higher in AC group and showed statistically significant differences (p=0.010 and 0.009). Conclusions: This is the first study conducting quantitative measurements of abdominal coldness in patients with FD. Although oral and skin temperature showed no statistical significance between AC and non-AC groups, the concordance rate of diagnosis of AC among the three Korean Medicine doctors was moderate. The CHQ scores and 'Simultaneous Occurrence of Cold and Heat Syndromes pattern' scores of the IPIFD also suggest that diagnosis of AC is relevant to cold and heat patterns, and these questionnaires could be utilized as supportive data for the diagnosis of AC. Further studies should be conducted for the purpose of quantifying and standardizing abdominal examinations in Korean Medicine.
