신장 동맥 손상은 둔상의 드문 합병증이나, 신장의 혈류 차단을 일으켜 신부전증을 일으킬 수도 있어 조기 진단과 치료가 필요하다. 신장 동맥 손상의 치료 방법은 아직 논란이 남아 있기는 하지만, 최근 연구들에서 혈관 내 스텐트를 이용한 성공적인 치료 결과가 보고 되었다. 그러나 아직 소아 환자에 대해서는 표준 치료법이 정해지지 않았다. 우리는 16세 여자 환아에서 발생한 4등급 간 열상과 동반된 우측 신장 동맥 폐색 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 환아는 풍선 혈관형성술만을 이용한 치료를 시행 받았고, 후에 신장의 실질 혈류 관류가 뚜렷하게 개선되었으며 신기능이 정상화 되었다. 따라서 소아 환자에서 신장 동맥 손상이 발생했을 경우, 풍선 혈관형성술을 이용한 시술이 치료의 한가지 방법이 될 수 있다.

목적: 중년 이후에서 흔히 일어나는 내측 반월상 연골판 후각 부착 부에 발생하는 방사상 파열의 임상적 특성과 관절경적 소견을 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2005년 1월부터 2007년 4월까지 본원 정형외과에 내원하여 슬관절 내시경 수술을 시행 받은 환자 중 관절경상 내측 반월상 연골판 후각 부착 부 파열이 관찰되었던 환자 40명, 40례에 대해 의무 기록을 통한 후향적인 검사를 시행하였다. 남자 7명, 여자 33명이고, 평균 연령61(47~80)세이며, 외상 병력의 유무, 동반된 관절염의 등급 및 통증 발생 후부터 수술까지의 기간(유병기간), 자기공명영상 소견, 임상 증상 및 파열단의 모양과 치료법 등을 검토하였다. 결과: 외상 병력이 있었던 경우가 6례며, 34례는 외상 병력이 없었다. 단순 방사선 사진상 Kellgren-Lawrence 분류는 0-II형이 31례, III형은 9례 였으며, 관절경상 대퇴골 내과의 관절 연골 상태는 Outerbridge grade IV 형이 17례, III 형이 4례, II 형이 9례, I 형이 9례이었다. 유병기간은 평균 5.3개월이었으며, MRI 소견으로는 전례에서 축상면 또는 관상면에서 틈(cleft)나 시상면에서 유령 징후(ghost sign) 중 1개 이상이 관찰되었다. 파열단의 모양은 18례가 뭉툭한 형태, 12례가 수평 파열, 10례가 퇴행성 파열이었으며 수술법으로는 연골판 아전 절제술을 16례, 부분 절제술을 10례, 봉합술을 14례에서 시행하였다. 결론: 중년 이후의 연령에서 반월상 연골판 후각 부착부 파열은 외상 병력이 드물게 발생하며 심한 기계적 증상을 호소하며, 관절염을 동반하는 경우가 많다. 치료로 절제술 뿐만 아니라 봉합술을 시도해 볼만한 파열이 있었으며, 추후 그 치료 결과에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

Orbital blowout fractures are common consequence to blunt periorbital trauma. Pure orbital blowout fractures first occur at the weakest point of the orbital wall. Computed tomography(CT) is recognized to be the best imaging technique to evaluate orbital fractures. The extent and location of a blowout fractures in the CT scan were noted to have an effect on the clinical outcome. In the early posttraumatic period, the presence of significant enophthalmos is difficult to detect because of orbital edema. Early surgical intervention may improve the ultimate outcome because open reconstruction becomes more difficult if surgery is delayed. In this study, we evaluated isolated blowout fractures of the orbital floor by region-of-interest measurements from CT scans and their relationship to ophthalmologic findings. Six patients of the medial orbital wall fractures, eleven patients of the inferior orbital wall fractures, nineteen of the medial and the inferior orbital wall fractures confirmed by CT scan, were evaluated. The area of fracture and the volume of the displaced orbital tissue were determined from CT scan using linear measurements. Each of the calculated values for the area and the volume were compared with the degree of the enophthalmos, the diplopia, and the eyeball movement limitation to determine whether there was any significant relationship between them. The fracture area and the volume of the herniated orbital tissue were significantly positively correlated with the enophthalmos and the ocular motility limitation and not correlated with the diplopia. For the enophthalmos of 2mm or greater, the mean fracture area was 3.55{\pm}1.25cm^2$ and the volume of the herniated orbital tissue was $1.74{\pm}0.97cm^3$; for less than 2mm enophthalmos, $1.43{\pm}0.99cm^3$ and $0.52{\pm}0.49cm^3$, respectively. The enophthalmos of 2mm can be expected with $2.92cm^2$ of the fracture area and $1.40cm^3$ of the herniated orbital tissue. In conclusion, the enophthalmos of 2mm or more, which is a frequent indication for surgery. It can be expected when area of fracture is $2.92cm^2$ or more, or the volume of herniated orbital tissue is $1.40cm^3$ or more. And the CT scan using linear measurements has an application in the assessment of patients with blowout fractures and provides useful information in the posttraumatic evaluation of orbital fractures.

Purpose: Severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries are relatively uncommon, but may result in high morbidity and mortality, especially when management is not optimal, and determining the appropriate treatment is often difficult. The objective of this study was to review our experience and to evaluate the role of a pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in treatment of pancreaticoduodenal injuries. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 16 patients who underwent an emergency PD at our hospital for severe pancreaticoduodenal injury from 1990 to 2011. Demographic data, clinical manifestations, mechanism and severity of the injury, associated injuries, postoperative complications and outcomes were reviewed. Results: The mean age of the 16 patients was $45{\pm}12years$ ($mean{\pm}standard$ deviation), and 15(93.8%) patients were male. All patients underwent an explorative laparotomy after a diagnosis using abdominal computed tomography. Almost all patients were classified as AAST grade higher than III. Thirteen(83.3%) of the 16 patients presented with blunt injuries; none presented with a penetrating injury. Only one(6.3%) patients had a combined major vascular injury. Fifteen patients underwent a standard Whipple's operation, and 1 patient underwent a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. Two of the 16 patients required an initial damage-control procedure; then, a PD was performed. The most common associated injured organs were the small bowel mesentery(12, 75%) and the liver(7, 43.8%). Complications were intraabdominal abscess(50%), delayed gastric emptying(37.5%), postoperative pancreatic fistula(31.5%), and postoperative hemorrhage (12.5%). No mortalities occurred after the PD. Conclusion: Although the postoperative morbidity rate is relatively higher, an emergency PD can be perform safely without mortality for severe pancreaticoduodenal injuries. Therefore, an emergency PD should be considered as a life-saving procedure applicable to patients with unreconstructable pancreaticoduodenal injuries, provided that is performed by an experienced hepatobiliary surgeon and the patient is hemodynamically stable.

Authors have reviewed the records of seven patients of multiple rib fractures with severe flail chest who were admitted to Hanyang University Hospital during the 3 years period from 1972 through 1975. Of the seven patients studied, automobile accidents led to the injuries in 4 cases, two patients were injured in fall from a tree and on the ox-heading. All who had a blunt trauma without any open wound on the chest. The numbers of the fractured ribs accounted for 6 to 9 of the ribs including double fractures from 3 to 5 ribs. The left side fractures occurred in the 6 patients and in the right only one patient. Thus the flail segment was more often located in the left antero-lateral position than in the right lateral position [the ratio was 6:1].. All cases had associated injuries. The injuries and multiple fractures were the most common associated injuries occurring in four and five of the patients respectively. The patients were classified as having associated head injuries when they were admitted in comatose or semicomatose state. When a major degree of instability of the thoracic cage exists, adequate respiratory change is not possible. For this reason the tracheostomy was performed in five patients in an acutely injured patient with flail chest only after an endotracheal tube has been inserted or after an endotracheal suction. All patients had secondary complications in the pleural cavity, such as hemothorax or hemopneumothorax with or without intrapulmonary hemorrhage and subcutaneous emphysema. Therefore, closed thoracostomy was performed in five patients in the emergency room. The thoracotomy was required in four patients: immediate operation without closed thoracostomy was performed in two patients and the thoracotomy was indicated in two patients after closed thoracostomy, because of increasing intrathoracic hemorrhage. As to the fixation of the flail segments, authors employed two techniques; one was towel clip traction of the flail segments and the other was intramedullary insertion of Kirschner`s wire in to the double fractured rib fragments for the fixation of the flail segments [Kirschner`s wire fixation]. Because` of an different results in the course of treatment between two techniques, data from patients with towel clip traction was compared with those from patients with thoracotomy and Kirschner`s wire fixation of the flail segments. Of the three patients with towel clip traction, two patients required bronchoscopic toilet due to lung atelectasis which developed because of inadequate motion of thoracic cage and poor expectoration. This was in contrast to the four patients with thoracotomy and Kirschner`s wire fixation, who didn`t these complication because of adequate motion of the thoracic cage and subsequent good expectoration.

관상동맥-폐동맥 누공은 비교적 드문 질환으로 선천적 원인이 대부분이나 최근 흉부 시술이나 방사선 치료의 증가로 점차 후천적 원인이 많아지는 추세이다. 증상이 비특이적이어서 진단이 늦어질 수 있어 주의를 요한다. 저자들이 경험한 환자는 기존의 폐질환 증상 때문에 심장 혈관 질환의 진행을 예측하기 어려웠다. 약간의 논쟁이 있으나 원인에 계 없이 크기가 작은 누공에서는 추적관찰이, 중등도 이상의 크기이거나 확장 가능성이 있는 경우에는 누공을 막거나 원인혈관을 제거하는 방법이 장되고 있다. 예후는 대체로 양호한 편이다.
