Ru interfacial layer was inserted into Mo-on-Si interface to enhance the extreme ultra-violet (EUV) reflective multilayer properties. The stacking status and optical properties are analyzed using cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (TEM), and reflectometer. About 1.5% of maximum reflectivity can be acquired as predicted in optical simulation, which is thought to be originated from the diffusion inhibition property. Phase defect correctability of the multilayer can be enhanced by the insertion of Ru barrier layer.

Total 193 patients over 16 years of age who have underwent a surgical correction of congenital heart diseases during the period 1964 to September of 1979 were reviewed. 106 patients were male and 87 patients were female. 85 patients were in the ages of 16 years through 20 years. The oldest patient was 54 years old male who had atrial septal defect. The commonest defects were atrial septal defect that accounted for 66 cases [34.2%]. Ventricular septal defect was next one that accounted for 66 cases [34.2%]. Patients with tetralogy of Fallot defects were 34 cases [17.6%]. 25 cases had patent ductus arteriosus [13.0%]. Patients with pulmonary stenosis were 17 cases [8.8%] and transposition of the great arteries cases were 2 cases [1%]. There were 14 cases of operative death in this series. So operative mortality rate was 7.3%. The commonest cause of death was low output syndrome and next was renal failure. This reviewed series reveals the incidence of operable congenital heart defects appearing in adult cardiac surgical patients and an aggressive surgical approach can be justified with low operative mortality like as pediatric age group.

Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection is frequently found in any ASD(atrial septal defect) patients. These patients are usually symptomatic, therefore, easily diagnosed as just simple ASD. We experienced a case of a 37-year-old female patient with ASD in which the left upper pulmonary vein was connected to SVC by the left inominate vein. The patient was diagnosed as simple ASD previously. During cardiac catheterization, we found a meaningful oxygen saturation step up between the SVC and its upper portion. Angiogram confirmed PAPVC. The surgical correction of anastomosis of PAPVC with left atrial appendage and direct closure of ASD were done. The patient was discharged 15 days later.

Purpose: A meningoencephalocele is a congenital malformation involving herniation of the meninges and cerebral tissue through a defect in the skull. For the patient with frontoethmoidal meningoencephalocele with hypertelorism, the removal of the meningoencephalocele without correction of the combined hypertelorism is not enough for getting a good cosmetic appearance. Correction of the hypertelorism is needed for cosmetic problem. We experienced a case of simultaneous correction of frontoethmoidal meningoencephalocele with hypertelorism. Methods: The meningoencephalocele was removed and the hypertelorism was corrected by central segment technique. The bone defects were filled with autogenous bone dusts. And the nose was reconstructed by a calvarial bone graft. Results: The patient had a good cosmetic appearance without any neurological complications without serious complications. Conclusion: We experienced a case of simultaneous correction of frontoethmoidal meningoencephalocele with hypertelorism. And a brief review of related literatures is given.

Recently, 4 cases underwent successful surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot combined with pulmonary atresia in 2 cases, with abnormal coronary artery in another 2 cases. The operation consisted of a patch repair to the ventricular septal defect. The pulmonary atresia and stenosis were corrected with the method of external connection, from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery using the valved conduits.

Pulmonary atresia with VSD is uncommon congenital anomaly with high mortality in neonatal period.Recently we experienced surgical correction of pulmonary atresia with VSD. The case was 2 month old male patient diagnosed as pulmonary atresia with VSD and PDA. Atretic pulmonary artery segment from Rt ventricular infundibulum to pulmonary artery was lcm in length. The pulmonary trunk tapered toward Right ventricular infundibulum and resulted in blind pouch with diameter of lmm. The left pulmonary artery was stenosed at just proximal and distal part to which PDA was connected. Total correction was undertaken which consisted of PDA ligation, dacron patch closure of VSD, establishment of continuity between right ventricle and pulmonary artery with autogenous pericardium. Postoperative systolic fight ventricular pressure and left ventricular pressure ratio was 0.7. In patient with pulmonary atresia with VSD it is advisable to perform a corrective operation, whenever the size and anatomy of pulmonary artery are acceptable for it.

Arterial switch operation for repair of nineteen cases of transposition of the great arteries associated with ventricular septal defect and three cases with double outlet right ventricle with subpulmonary ventricular septal defect[Taussig-Bing type DORV] was performed from November 1987 to September 1990 at the Seoul National University Children`s Hospital. Sixteen of them were under six months of age, and three were under one year of age with body weight ranged from three to fourteen kilograms. Preoperative cardiac catheterization was done in eighteen patients, in which the pressure of the left ventricle was greater than 70% of the right ventricle in all but one. Patent ductus was associated in thirteen cases[68.4%] of TGA+VSD, and atrial septal defect or patent oval foramen was in sixteen cases. Four atrial septostomy, one modified Blalock- Taussig shunt, one pulmonary artery banding, one coarctoplasty using subclavian arterial flap, were perfomed before arterial switch operation. There were five hospital deaths, all in the. patients with transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect[overall mortality rate 22.7%]. Lecompte Maneuver was used in all patients, and in all patient the U-shaped flap of coronary arteries were transposed to V-shaped cleavage created in the neoaorta. Arterial defect in the neopulmonary artery was covered with 0.0625% Glutaraldehyde fixed autogenous pericardium There have been no late deaths, Postoperative cardiac catheterization and angiocardiogram in four patients has revealed no stenosis in the neopulmonary artery or neoaorta with reasonable P[RV/LV], Anatomic correction for transposition and double outlet right ventricle with subpulmonary ventricular septal defect would seem to be a good operative alternative to intraatrial switch procedures, with the advantage of incorporating the left ventricle to systemic circulation.

Orthognathic surgery, ie, the surgical correction of congenital and acquaired anormalities of the jaws, is currently a field of vigorous activity among oral surgeons. Surgical correction of maxillofacial deformities benefits the patient both psychologically and functionally. Facial mutilation may precipitate adverse psychologic effects. Function is frequently impaired by malrelation of the jaws. In addition, speech, specifically articulation, is often handicapped in patient with severe jaw deformities. Therefore, in dealing with these patient, above mentioned problem should be considered deliberately. In this regard, the authors have treated 2 cases of mandible defect caused by gunshot and explosives with iliac bone graft. In both cases, the patient had Tantalum plate on defect area. But it became lose and gave functional disturbances. So, the authors have removed Tantalum plate and performed bone transplantation with autogenous soild iliac bone graft on that area with good results.

In these day, the number of people who have an abnormal posture caused by bad habit are increasing. Therefore, people suffer various disease and symptoms. For correcting the posture to cure, we need continuous monitor, expenditure of time and money. In this study, we develop a posture correcting aid system in other to monitor a posture continuously and leads to pose correctly and records postural variation which are attached to the neck and the waist. The devised system showed good potential for the correct posture guide and a cure of postural defect.

Surgical treatment of partial endocardial cushion defect was accomplished in Feb. 1984 in this department. The 5 year old male patient had history of frequent upper respiratory tract infection and since his age of 3 years dyspnea on exertion and palpitation were noted but there were no cyanosis and clubbing. A thrill was palpable on the apex and grade IV/IV harsh systolic ejection murmur and diastolic murmur was audible on it. Liver was palpable about 3 finger breadths and no ascites. Chest X-ray revealed increased pulmonary vascularity, moderate cardiomegaly [C-T ratio; 0.69], and enlarged left atrium. EKG showed first degree heart block, RVH, LVH, and LAD. Echocardiogram showed paradoxical ventricular septal movement and abnormal diastolic movement of the anterior leaflet of mitral valve. Right heart catheterization resulted left to right shunt [Qp:Qs:2.1:1 ] and moderate pulmonary hypertension [60/40 mmHg]. Left ventriculogram showed mitral regurgitation [Grade III/IV] and filling of left atrium and right atrium nearly same time. Operative findings were: 1.Primum type atrial septal defect [3x2 cm] 2.Cleft on the anterior leaflet of mitral valve. 3.No interventricular communication and cleft of tricuspid valve leaflet. The mitral cleft was repaired with 4 interrupted sutures. The primum type atrial septal defect was closed with Dacron patch intermittently at endocardial cushion and continuously remainder. The post operative course was uneventful and discharged on 22nd postoperative day in good general conditions.
