Diaphragmatic hernias have been reported in 0.8%-1.6% of patients who experience blunt chest trauma. The hernia is assumed to form as a result of direct diaphragmatic violation or significant intraabdominal or intrathoracic pressure caused by the trauma. Some reports have described cases of delayed diaphragmatic hernia and subsequent stomach perforation that occurred a few days to several years after an accident. We report an extremely rare case of diaphragmatic herniation in which the process from initial blunt trauma to visceral organ perforation took only 2 days, without any evidence of herniation on the initial X-ray or computed tomography. Delayed diaphragmatic herniation and subsequent visceral organ perforation should not be missed during the period immediately after blunt chest trauma.

심장점액종은 심장의 가장 흔한 양성 종양이다. 하지만 국소전이와 원격전이의 증례들이 낮은 빈도로 보고되어 있다. 뇌경색을 주소로 내원한 49세 여자 환자의 심장초음파에서 심장 점액종이 발견되었으며 수술로 절제 1년 후에 구음장애가 발생하여 촬영한 자기공명영상에서 여러개의 조영증강이 되는 출혈성뇌전이 병변들이 관찰되었다. 방사선치료 후 추적 자기공명영상에서 병변의 크기들이 작아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 양성 종양이지만 심장 점액종은 드물게 지연되어 전이를 보일 수 있다. 저자들은 심장 점액종을 수술로 완전히 절제 후 지연되어 나타난 뇌전이를 경험하여 증례 및 문헌고찰을 하는 바이다.

Injury of the musculocutanous nerve can be associated with a proximal humeral fracture or shoulder dislocation, and injury of the brachial plexus. However, injury of this nerve associated with a humeral shaft fracture has rarely been reported. Diagnosis of the musculocutaneous nerve injury is difficult because its sensory loss is ill-defined, and examination of elbow flexion is difficult when it is associated with fractures. We report an unusual case of musculocutaneous nerve injury in a 27 years old woman who had multiple injuries including a humerus shaft fracture, an ipsilateral radius shaft fracture, and an associated radial nerve laceration. Diagnosis of the musculocutaneous nerve injury was delayed because combined fractures of the humerus and radius prevented proper examination of the elbow motion and nerve grafting of the radial nerve delayed early elbow motion exercise. Delayed exploration of the musculocutaneous nerve 6 months after trauma showed complete rupture of the nerve at its entry into the coracobrachialis muscle and the defect was successfully managed by sural nerve graft.

This case report is to show the effects of Traditional Korean medicine (TKM) on the patient with delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning. A patient with delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning occurs rarely and only a few cases have been reported. We treated a patient with cognitive deficit, gait disturbance was treated with herbal medicine(Boshiniknoe-tang-gami), acupuncture, moxibustion. We evaluated the improvements of symptoms by Korean Version of Mini Mental Status Examination score(K-MMSE), Modified Barthel Index(MBI) and Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS). After 3 weeks, total score of K-MMSE was increased from 12 to 17 and it was maintained to week 6. After 6 weeks, total score of MBI was increased from 30 to 86. And GCS was increased from 11 to 14. This report proved effect of Traditional Korean medicine on the improvement of delayed encephalopathy after carbon monoxide poisoning

The ADCON-L $gel^{(R)}$ (Gliatech, Cleveland, OH, USA), a carbohydrate polymer gel. has been shown in a controlled clinical study to inhibit postsurgical adhesions and improve a patient's clinical outcome. Immediate complication of this gel has been reported in the recent literature including back pain, radiculitis and durotomy. However, delayed detection of disturbance of muscle healing and attachment in late postoperative state has been rarely reported. This report documents an unexpected delayed detected complication of the anti-adhesion barrier gel. which was used after lumbar discectomy one year ago, with review of literature.

Successful osseo-integration of dental implants that Dr. Bronemak reported in 1965 had been ground-breaking research in the restorative dentistry for the missing dentition. Clinical application of dental implants in the restorative dentistry has begun with the role of retention and support for the complete denture, beyond the functional recovery in partially missing area, and succeeds in the cosmetic recovery for anterior missing area. Recently, immediate implantation and loading after the extraction have been preferred by many excellent clinicians especially on maxillary anterior missing area, because they want to prevent from the absorption of residual alveolar bone. But it is hard to decide immediate loading for common clinicians also, because it is difficult for them to convict proper osseo-integration. In this article, immediate implantation and delayed loading case on maxillay anterior region have been introduced and predictable prosthetic procedure for the esthetic result has suggested.

Renal artery pseudoaneurysm after blunt renal trauma is an uncommon complication of delayed hemorrhage, and diagnostic difficulties are experienced due to its rarity. Delayed hemorrhage after renal trauma is a life-threatening complication. Angiography is considered the gold standard to diagnose a traumatic renal artery pseudoaneurysm. We report here a case of delayed bleeding from a renal artery pseudoaneurysm that was diagnosed at 17 days after the injury and that was managed successfully with selective renal artery embolization without medical complication.

Objectives The objective of this study is to report clinical effect of korean traditional treatments for Operation-delayed Cauda Equina Syndrome patient. Methods The patient was treated by korean traditional treatments including acupuncture, physical treatment, herbal medication. The improvement of the clinical symptoms was observed by Modified Visual analog scale (Modified VAS), SSCES (Scoring System for Cauda Equina Syndrome), function of urination and function of defecation. Results After treatments, Modified VAS, SSCES, function of urination and function of defecation were improved in this case. Conclusions On the basis of these results, we suggest that korean traditional treatment might be an effective method to improve the clinical symptoms of Operation-delayed Cauda Equina Syndrome patient.

Acute compartment syndrome occurs when pressure increases within closed compartments due to injuries causing soft tissue damage. Delayed treatment can lead to undesirable consequences. This paper reports a three-year-old patient in whom a fasciotomy was performed successfully despite the potential side effects. Fasciotomy may be considered when the diagnosis and clinical symptoms of delayed compartment syndrome are clear. This study determined that the three-year-old patient would undergo a relatively smooth recovery compared to elderly patients of advanced age. Because the dorsalis pedis artery pulse was palpable, an emergency surgical treatment was performed to restore the damaged tissues and prevent further necrosis. The patient has shown a satisfactory recovery.
