Background : The coronal incision is versatile surgical approach to upper and middle region of the facial skeletal including the zygomatic arch. The advantages of coronal approach are minimal injury of facial tissue including facial nerve and satisfactory cosmetic result by hidden scar at hair. But wide exposure of scalp, its disadvantages are operation time and massive blood loss. Methods : Thirty patients undergoing elective surgery were divided 3 groups. Group I used only coronal approach, group II used coronal with subciliary approach and group III used coronal with subciliary and intraoral approach. And then retrospected of the preoperative, postoperative red blood cell count, hemoglobin(Hb), hematocrit, transfused red blood cell units and platelet cell units, and the amount of infused crystalloids and colloids, and postoperative hemovac count was estimated. Results: 1. Red blood cell count were decreased in all groups at immediated postoperation and decreased in all group of postoperative first day and decreased in group I, II but increased group III of postoperative third day. 2. Hemoglobin and hematocrit were decreased in all group at immediated postoperation and decreased in all group of postoperative first day and decreased in group I, II., but increased group III postoperative third day. 3. Platelet was decreased in all group at immediated postoperation, and decreased in group II, III but increased in group I of postoperative first day and decreased in group I but increased group II, III of postoperative third day. 4. Mean postoperative hemovac mean drainage group I of first day is $48.63{\pm}21.12ml$ and second day is $23.92{\pm}19.53ml$ and third day is $7.82{\pm}5.32ml$ and group II of first day $60.45{\pm}22.65ml$ and second day is $22.14{\pm}13.21ml$ and third day is $7.32{\pm}6.25ml$. III group of first day $58.16{\pm}10.13ml$ and second day is $21.27{\pm}11.72ml$ and third day is $7.13{\pm}4.90ml$. 5. Infusion of group I is mean PRC $1.08{\pm}0.91$ pint, FFP $1.03{\pm}0.75$ pint, crystalloid $2562.23{\pm}1345.53ml$ and group II is mean PRC $1.05{\pm}0.89$ pint, FFP $1.71{\pm}0.78$, crystalloid $2650.47{\pm}1096.36ml$ and group III is mean PRC $1.79{\pm}1.45$ pint, crystalloid $3295.43{\pm}1472.432ml$.

Histological observations of the barbels of torrent catfish (Amblycipitidae) in Korea are reported. The bullhead torrent catfish (Liobagrus andersoni) and Korean torrent catfish (L. obesus) have eight obvious barbels in two pairs each on the maxilla and mandible. Each barbel is composed of an epidermis, dermis, and central cartilagerod. The epidermis of the maxillary and mandibular barbels of the bullhead torrent catfish is thicker than that of the Korean torrent catfish (P<0.05) and is formed of stratified epithelium that contains many cutaneous taste buds and a few small club cells. There are many taste buds on the upper part of each barbel. The dermis consists of loose connective tissue fibers that enclose blood vessels and bundles of nerve fibers. The barbels of these fish can be categorized into stiff and flexible types and are accessory, feeding, and sensory structures. Our results validate the barbels as gustatory receptor organs for these fishes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of internal fixation method of $Medpor^{(R)}$ implant with $BioSorb^{TM}FX$ screw which is used for prevention of enophthalmos in posteriorly extended large orbital floor fracture. Methods: From Jun. 1997 to Dec. 2007, 21 patients who were diagnosed with posteriorly extended large orbital floor fractures were classified into two groups. One group(n=11) had undergone reduction surgery with regular $Medpor^{(R)}$ sheets without any fixation method, while the other group(n=10) had their $Medpor^{(R)}$ sheets fixed with the $BioSorb^{TM}FX$ screws. The two groups were evaluated by comparison of their enophthalmos degree and effectiveness. Results: In the non-fixation group, six patients had enophthalmos preoperatively and three of them showed persistent enophthalmos postoperatively. In postoperative CT examination, displacement of $Medpor^{(R)}$ implant with soft tissue impaction into maxillary sinus was observed in the patients. In the screw fixation group, three patients had enophthalmos preoperatively, but none of them suffer from complication such as residual enophthalmos, soft tissue impaction, muscle entrapment or optic nerve compression postoperatively. Conclusion: Internal fixation method of $Medpor^{(R)}$ implant with $BioSorb^{TM}FX$ screw on the medial surface of orbital floor provides firm stabilization of implants and surrounding soft tissues and can be an effective option especially when postoperative implant displacement or malposition was expected.

Background: The diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is based on only clinical criteria. The purpose of this study was to estimate the clinical manifestations of TN patients treated at our pain clinic. Methods: A total of 341 patients with TN from Jan. 2004 to Dec. 2006 was evaluated the intensity, site, and onset of pain, facial sensation, duration of pain attack, pain free interval, triggering factors, and effects of the previous treatments with TN specific questionnaire and interview at the first visit of our pain clinic. Results: About 80% of the patients were over 50 years of age and 256 (75%) patients were women. Average durations from first attack of their pain and from current pain attack were 7 years and 16 weeks, respectively. The two most frequently involved trigeminal nerve branches were maxillary (40%) and mandibular (39%) branches. Three quarters of the total patients experienced only paroxysmal pain that lasted less than one minute. About 90% of patients had pain free period at least one time. Most common triggering factors were chewing (88%), brushing teeth (82%), washing face (79%), and talking (70%). Only 16 patients (5%) had no previous treatment and the others had more than one treatment, such as medication (68%) and interventional procedures (35%). The most common reasons for early discontinuation of carbamazepine were dizziness, ataxia, and vomiting. Conclusions: TN has specific clinical features of pain, which should be considered at diagnosis.

무치악 환자의 보철치료에서 총의치를 이용한 보철 치료 시 각화 점막을 통해 교합력을 분담하므로 저작력과 저작 능률이 떨어지고 특히 지지 점막 면적이 작은 하악의 경우 상악에 비해 통증 발생 등의 부작용이 더 많다. 치조골 흡수가 많은 환자일수록 이는 더 심화되나 하악 구치부 측의 하치조신경관의 존재 때문에 임플란트를 동반한 적극적 치료가 어려운 경우가 많다. 이에 본 증례에서는 상악에는 전통적인 총의치를 제작하고 하악은 치조골 높이가 충분한 전방부에만 임플란트를 식립하여 all-on-4 방법으로 치료한 환자에서 좋은 경과를 보여 보고하고자 한다.

반안면 왜소증 (Hemifacial microsomia) 은 선천성 악안면기형 중 발생빈도가 두 번째로 높은 질환으로서, 상, 하악골 뿐만이 아니라 외이나 중이, 두개의 일부, 협부 연조직, 안면신경, 근육 등의 복합적인 부위를 침범하는 광범위한 선천성 기형으로서, 환자에 따라 그 정도의 차이는 있으나 성장에 따라 교합면 경사와 함께 이환 측으로 안면 비대칭의 정도가 점점 심화되는 특징을 가진다. 반안면 왜소증에서 치아와 관련된 증상으로는 치아 성숙도의 차이, 치아 수의 감소, 맹출지 연, 법랑질 저형성증 등이 보고된 바 있다. 치아는 악골의 크기나 형태와 밀접한 연관을 가지고 발육하기 때문에, 반안면 왜소증 환자의 경우 치아 발육에서 변화가 발생되기 쉬울 것으로 생각된다. 이에 저자들은 한국인 편측성 반안면 왜소증 환자의 이환 측과 비이환 측에서 상, 하악 유치와 영구치의 크기와 형태 차이 여부를 조사하기 위하여 본 연구를 시행하였다. 서울대학교병원 교정과에 내원하였던 편측성 반안면 왜소증 환자 34명 (남자 18명, 여자 15명, 초진시 평균연령 5세 11개월)을 연구대상으로 선정하였다. 이들의 각 치아별 근원심과 협설측 폭경 을 계측한 후, 평균 및 표준편차를 계산하고 paired t-test로 통계 처리하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 상, 하악 유치와 영구치의 이환 측과 비이환 측의 근원심 폭경 비교에서 이환 측의 하악 제 2 유구치와 하악 제1 영구 대구치가 비이환 측에 비하여 작게 나타났으며 통계학적 유의차를 보였다. 이것은 하악 전치부와 제 1유구치의 근원심 폭경에서 통계학적으로 유의성있는 차이를 보이지 않았음과 연관지어볼 때, 이환측 하악의 최후방 구치에서 근원심 폭경 감소의 경향 (gradient of severity)이 크다고 할 수 있다. 2. 상, 하악 유치와 영구치의 이환 측과 비이환 측의 협설측 폭경 비교에서 모든 치아에서 통계학적 유의차를 볼 수 없었지만, 이환 측의 하악 유치와 영구치의 협설측 폭경이 비이환 측에 비하여 보상적으로 다소 큰 값을 나타내는 경향이 있었다. 본 연구는 반안면 왜소증에 의하여 영향을 받은 하악골의 이한측 치아, 특히 최후방 구치, 의 크기와 형태 이상이 발생될 가능성이 있다는 것을 보여주었다.

This study was performed to provide the information on the clinical characteristics of the most common paroxysmal pain disorder in maxillofacial region, trigeminal neuralgia, and the effects and side effects of carbamazepine. The patients who visited Orofacial Pain Clinic, Dept. of Oral Diagnosis, Seoul National University Dental Hospital for treating paroxysmal pain were studied by history taking, clinical examination, and radiography. Sixty-two patients(male 20, female42) without any clinical and radiological abnormalities were Included. The change of pain, blood tests, and side effects were investigated periodically after administration of carbamazepine. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Almost all patient with trigeminal neuralgia were over the age of forties and it was more common in women. 2. Trigeminal neuralgia was more right sided and the involved nerve was in the order of maxillary n., mandibular n., and ophthalmic n. 3. The mean duration of suffering was 20.7 months. Eighty percent of patients had apparent trigger area. 4. The duration of pain attack was in the older of several seconds, 1 min. to 5 min., more than 10 min., and 5 min. to 10 min. The frequency of pain attack was in the order of more than 10 per day, 6-10 per day, and 1-5 per day. 5. The clinic the patients had visited for reducing neuralgic pain was in the order of dental clinic, neurology, oriental medicine, otolaryngology, and pharmacy. 6. Unnecessary dental treatments for reducing neuralgic pain were performed in 41.9% of the patients. Almosit all treatments were irreversible ones such as endodontic treatment and tooth extraction. 7. The initial mean VAS was 8.6, but it was decreased to 3.8 after 1 month, to 2.7 after 2 months. Almost all patients showed decreased pain with 200-600mg/day of carbamazepine to 6 months. 8. WBC counts, especially neutrophil counts, was decreased in 1 week after administration of carbamazepine but reached initial level after 1 month. SGOT, SGPT, and creatinine did not show any significant change. 9. Blood pressure was not changed significantly after administration of carbamazepine. 10. Almost patients did not show any apparent side effects, but drowsiness, dizziness, skin itching, constipation, and gastric irritation were occurred in some patients.

Cavernous sinus thrombosis is one of the major complications of abscesses of the maxillofacial region. The initial symptoms of CST are usually pain in the eye and tenderness to pressure. this is associated with high fluctuating fever, chills, rapid pulse, and sweating. Venous obstruction subsequently causes edema of the eyelids, lacrimation, proptosis, chemosis and retinal hemorrhages. Blindness is sometimes an accompaniment of cavernous sinus thrombosis when the infection also involves the orbit. There is also cranial nerve involvement (oculomotor, troclear, abducence) and ophthalmoplegia, diminished or absent corneal reflex, ptosis, and dilation of the pupil occur. The terminal stages bring signs of advanced toxemia and meningitis. Infections of the face can cause a septic thrombosis of the cavernous sinus. Furunculosis and infected hair follicles in the nose are frequent causes. Extractions of maxillary anterior teeth in the presence of acute infection and especially curettage of the sockets under such circumstances can cause this condition. The infection is usually staphylococcal. The inflection may spread directly through the pterygoid plexus of veins and the pterygomaxillary space and then ascend into the sinus or it may spread directly from the pterygopalatine space to the orbit. This is possible because of the absence of valves in the angular, facial, and ophthalmic veins. The treatment is empirical antibiotic therapy followed by specific anbibiotic therapy based on blood or pus culture. The inflection usually involves one side, however, it may easily spread to the opposite side through the circulus sinus. Unless it is treated early, the prognosis is poor even in this doses. Occasionally the antibiotics will not adequately resolve the septic thrombus, and death ensues. the use of anticoagulants to prevent venous thrombosis has been recommended, but the efficacy of such therapy has not been substantiated. Surgical access through eye enucleation has been suggested. We report a case which demonstrates cavernous sinus thrombosis by the infection after the functional neck dissection and the intraoral reconstruction with auriculomastoid fascio-cutaneous island flap.
