판막 후부의 공동부는 판막의 닫힘 거동과 판막 주위의 혈류 유동장을 변화시켜 인공 판막의 수력학적 성능에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 계식 이엽 판막(SJMV), 폴리머 단엽 판막(MLPV), 폴리머 삼엽 판막(FTPV)을 판막 후부에 공동부가 있는 시험부와 공동부가 없는 직관형 시험부에 설치하여 모의 순환 장치에서 판막의 수력학적 성능을 평가하였다. 판막의 누수량은 공동부가 있는 시험부에서 약간 작았고, 수축기 평균 압력강하는 크게 나타났으나 통계적으로는 큰 차이가 없었다. 따라서 판막 후부의 공동부는 판막의 수력학적 성능에 큰 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 유량 파형의 해석 결과 판막 후부 공동부는 MLPV에서는 판막의 닫힘에 큰 영향을 주지 않았으나, SJMV에서는 판막의 닫힘이 일찍 시작하게 하였고 이 영향은 FTPV에서 더욱 크게 나타났다. FTPV는 공동부가 있는 시험부에서 역류 최대 유량이 감소하였으므로 판막 후두에 공동부는 판막의 급격한 닫힘에 의한 역류 제트의 발생을 감소시키리라 기대된다.

This study was performed in order to analyse the morphology of maxillary sinus on orthopantomogram. The author anlaysed the anterior-posterior width of mesial wall, the extension of anterior margin in maxillary sinus and the interrelation between the root apex of maxillary 1st molar and sinus floor. The films consisted of 514 orthopantomograms divided into three groups ranging the 3rd decade, 4th and 5th decade and 6th decade. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The mean dimensions of the anterior - posterior width of mesial wall were 43.81±4.55㎜ for male and 43.80±4.49㎜for female in the right of maxillary sinus, 43.75±74㎜ for male and 43.37±3.92㎜ for female. 2. With age, the dimensional change of the anterior - posterior width of mesial wall in maxillary sinus was not observed. 3. The extension order of anterior margin of the maxillary sinus was distal to canine side, 1st premolar mesial side, canine mesial side, and 1st premolar distal side. 4. In the distance between the root apex of upper 1st molar and the maxillary sinus floor, the degree of closeness was more increased in the older-aged group than in the younger-aged group.

Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) of the transverse sinus with ophthalmic manifestations in young children are rare. We reviewed two cases of direct AVF of the transverse sinus with ocular manifestations managed at our institution. The first, a 2.5 years old male child presented with left exophthalmos. Angiography revealed AVF between the occipital artery and the transverse sinus. The second, a 2 years old female child, complained of left exophthalmos. Imaging studies showed bilateral direct AVFs of the transverse sinus with bilateral dysmaturation of the sigmoid sinus. Transarterial embolization was done in both cases. Clinical and radiological follow up revealed complete cure. This report suggests that DAVF of the transverse sinus supplied by the external carotid branches can present with ophthalmic manifestations especially if there is distal venous stenosis or obliteration involving sigmoid sinus. Transarterial embolization using coils and liquid embolic agents could be safe and feasible to obliterate the fistula.

The purpose of this study was radiographic analysis of the morphology of maxillary sinus in adolescents and adults. In order to analize the morphology of maxillary sinus in view point of anteroposterior width of medial wall, vertical distance between antral floor and nasal floor level, anterior extension, distance between antral floor and maxillary 1st molar apex, and types of lower border of maxillary sinus, specialized maxillary projection and periapical view with paralleling technique was taken. The author examined orthopantomograms and intraoral standard views taken from 400 adolescents and adults ranged 15-65 year-old. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The antero-posterior width of medial wall of maxillary sinus was 32.80mm in 15-19 year-old group, 33.86㎜ in 20-24 year-old group, 34.09㎜ in 25-29 year-old group, and 33.67㎜ in 30-65 year-old group, and the left maxillary sinus was somewhat smaller than the right. 2. The vertical distance between antral floor and nasal floor level was 8.49㎜ in 15-19 year-old group, 9.05㎜ in 20-24 year-old group, 8.95㎜ in 25-29 year-old group, and 8.32㎜ in 30-65 year-old group. 3. The order of anterior extension of maxillary sinus were distal half of canine, mesial half of canine, mesial half of 1st premolar, and distal half of 1st premolar. 4. The distance between antral floor and maxillary 1st molar were 4.36㎜ in 15-19 year-old group, 4.77㎜ in 20-24 year-old group, 3.58㎜ in 25-29 year-old group, and 2.33㎜ in 30-65 year-old group. 5. The order of the types of lower border of maxillary sinus were entire downward type, close type, partially downward type, waving type, separating type, and indistinct. In the types of antral floor, there was a tendency to increase the seperating type with age.

The extensor digitorum brevis (EDB) muscle island flap is a reliable, safe method for coverage of foot and ankle. There are many variation in approach such as curvilinear, zigzag, L-shaped or vertical longitudinal incision for exposure of the EDB muscle. These approaches use only single incision excluding the distal incision for exposure of the distal tendon. Since dorsalis pedis artery vascular bundle and sinus tarsi branch of the lateral tarsal artery both requires careful dissection, single incision alone may cause not only difficulty in exposure but also skin sloughing at donor site. So we tried to modify the approach into two parallel longitudinal incision, one for dorsalis pedis vascular bundle and the other for sinus tarsi branch exposure. The author treated 9 patient with EDB muscle flap. We used single incision in six patients, and two parallel incision in three patients. All the flap survived. In two parallel incision group, dissection was more easy and rapid. So we would like to suggest that two parallel longitudinal incision approach is better method than the single incision technique for exposure of the EDB muscle flap.

Congenital coronary arterial fistulae are the most prevalent hemodynamically significant congenital coronary artery malformations. Definition of congenital coronary arterial fistula is a direct communication between a coronary artery and the lumen of one of the four cardiac chambers or coronary sinus or SVC, pulmonary artery or pulmonary vein close to the heart. It is often associated with additional congenital or acquired heart disease. A 49 year old male patient was admitted with the chief complaints of anginal pain and exertional dyspnea for 9 months. He was diagnosed as the right coronary arterial fistula combined with right coronary arteriosclerotic stenosis and old inferior myocardial infarction by cardiac evaluation. The right coronary arterial fistula was communicated between the just distal portion of acute marginal branch and coronary sinus. The operative procedure was as followings; after suture ligation of fistula opening in the coronary sinus under beating heart, coronary arterial bypass grafting with saphenous vein was performed at the just proximal portion of the posterior descending branch under cardiopulmonary bypass. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was discharged without anginal pain at the 8th postoperative day.

The purpose of this study is to improve the availabilities of radiographic technics as diagnostic methods to evaluate maxillary sinus in dental clinic. For the morphologic study of maxillary sinus, 20 dry maxillas were used and intraoral standard views, orthopantomograms, and skull P-A views were taken. For measuring the vertical image magnification rates, 5 sites in maxillary molar regions of 5 dry mandibles were selected radndomly and 25 wires of the determined sizes for selected portions were attached to the sites, after then, intraoral radiograms with bisecting technic and orthopantomograms were taken. The acquired results were as follows: 1. The anterior extension of the maxillary sinus on orthopantomogram was the distal side of the canine in 45.45% of subjects, the mesial side of the canine in 27.27%, the lateral incisor in 9.09%, the mesial side of the 1st premolar in 9.09%, and the mesial side of the 2nd pre-molar in 9.09%. 2. The positional relationship between the floor of maxillary sinus and the apex of alveolar socket revealed superimposed type in 58.3% of subjects, approached type in 33.3%, and separated type in 8.4%. 3. The morphology of inferior border of maxillary sinus was simple V or U shape in edentulous stage and V or wide U shape in alveolar socket stage. 4. The vertical image length on intraoral film taken by bisecting technic was magnified by 27.23% on the average and the length on orthopantomogram by 12.35%. 5. The inferior borders of maxillary sinus coinciding with each of the areas bearing the anterior and the posterior teeth on skull P-A view were determined.

Purpose: This study determined and compared the distances from the maxillary root apices of posterior teeth to the floor of the maxillary sinus, or maxillary sinus distances(MSDs), and the distances from the mandibular root apices of the posterior teeth to the mandibular canal, or mandibular canal distances(MCDs), in Thai subjects with skeletal open bite and skeletal normal bite. Materials and Methods: Pretreatment cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were obtained from 30 Thai orthodontic patients (15 patients with skeletal normal bite and 15 with skeletal open bite) whose ages ranged from 14 to 28 years. The CBCT images of the patients were processed and measured using the Romexis Viewer program. The MSDs and MCDs from the root apices of the maxillary and mandibular second premolar, first molar, and second molar to the maxillary sinus floor or the mandibular canal were measured perpendicularly to the occlusal plane. The Student t test was used for comparisons between the 2 groups. Results: The greatest mean MSDs were from the root apex of the second premolars in both groups, whereas the least mean MSDs were from the mesiobuccal root apex of the second molars. The greatest mean MCDs were from the mesial root apex of the first molars, whereas the least mean MCDs were from the distal root apex of the second molars. Conclusion: There were no differences in the mean MSDs or the mean MCDs between the skeletal normal bite group and the skeletal open bite group.

Supravalvular aortic stenosis may be defined as an obstructive congenital deformity of the ascending aorta which originates just distal to the level of the origins of the coronary arteries It may be localized or diffuse. Enlargement of the aorta with a diamond-shaped patch of the noncoronary sinus of Valsalva was reported in 1961 by McGoon and associates But this reconstruction is asymmetric and the aortic obstruction may remain. In 1977, Dotty and associates reported the extended aortoplasty, the supravalvular ring was incised at two points in the noncoronary and in the right coronary sinuses of Valsalva closed with a tubular Dacron prosthesis of inverted Y-shape tailored to reconstruct the aorta We experienced three cases of the supravalvular aortic stenosis. The 11-year-old female and 4-year-old male with localized supravalvular aortic stenosis in William`s syndrome were operated with an inverted Y-shaped aortotomy toward the non-coronary sinus and the right coronary sinus and closed with "Hemashield`s collagen impregnated Dacron" tube graft, fashioned into "pantaloon" form patch. The 12-year-old male with localized supravalvular aortic stenosis and mitral insufficiency in William`s syndrome were operated with same procedure as two other patient above-mentioned for relief of supravalvular aortic stenosis and with mitral valve replacement. Postoperative course has been good.ourse has been good.
