Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are a group of highly diverse malignancies and have a strong tendency to affect organs and tissues that do not ordinarily contain lymphoid cells. Primary extra nodal lymphoma of the hard palate is rare. Here, we present a case of diffuse large B cell lymphoma in a 60-year-old male patient that manifested as slightly painful ulcerated growth on the edentulous right maxillary alveolar ridge extending onto the palate, closely resembling carcinoma of the alveolar ridge. Computed tomography images showed the involvement of the maxillary sinus and right nasal cavity, along with destruction of hard palate, superiorly extending into the orbit. This case report highlights the importance of imaging to evaluate the exact extent of such large malignant lesions, which is essential for treatment planning.

비강 및 부비동에 발생하는 신경내분비암종(neuroendocrine carcinoma)은 매우 드물고, 자기공명영상 소견에 대한 보고가 거의 없다. 이에 본 저자들은 비출혈을 주소로 내원한 62세 남자와 74세 남자에서 발생한 신경내분비암종의 2 증례에 대하여 전산화단층촬영과 자기공명영상의 소견을 중심으로 보고하고자 한다. 2예 모두 전산화단층촬영에서 비강과 부비동내에 비교적 크고 경계가 불분명한 종괴가 있었으며, 인접한 골 파괴를 동반하였다. 자기공명영상에서 종괴는 T1강조영상에서 등신호 강도를 보였고, T2강조영상에서는 등신호와 고신호가 섞여있는 양상을 보였으며, 조영 증강시 불균질한 조영 증강을 보였고 내부에는 괴사가 포함되어 있었다. 자기공명영상에서도 종괴에 인접한 골 파괴가 관찰되었다. 2예에서 모두 인접한 접형동내에 T1강조영상에서 고신호 강도를 보이는 점액낭 혹은 종양주변 낭성 부위가 관찰되었다. 2예 모두 전산화단층촬영과 자기공명영상에서 일반적인 비강과 부비동에 발생하는 악성 종양의 비특이적인 소견을 보였으나 종양 주변 낭성 부위의 의미에 대해서는 보다 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

비강 및 부비동의 점막에서 발생하는 양성상피종양인 반전성 유두종은 비교적 드물며 1854년 Ward에 의해 처음으로 기술된 이래 여러 학자들에 의해 본증이 논의되어 왔으나 한국에서는 그 보고례가 매우 드물었다. 병리조직학적으로 양성인 이 종양은 비강이나 골 및 주위조직의 파괴성 병변이 빈번하고 수술 후 재발이 잘되고 드물게 악성으로 변하는 성질을 나타내므로 임상적으로 악성으로 알려져 왔다. 일단 반전성 유두종으로 확진되게 되면 가능한 한 광범위한 절제가 필요하며 술 후에도 계속적이 추적조사가 필요하다고 하겠다. 최근 저자들은 비폐색, 종류감을 주소로하여 내원한 48세된 남자환자에서 우측비강, 상악동에서 발생하여 국소적으로 악성화 변화를 일으킨 반전성 유두종 1례를 비내 및 Caldwell＿LUC식 방법으로 절제후 Bleomycin 정맥주사, 5＿FU 국소분무요법 및 방사선요법($Co^{60}$)을 병용하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 이를 문헌적 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Background Among the various methods for correcting nasal deformity, the composite graft is suitable for the inner and outer reconstruction of the nose in a single stage. In this article, we present our technique for reconstructing the ala and columella using the auricular chondrocutaneous composite graft. Methods From 2004 to 2011, 15 cases of alar and 2 cases of columellar reconstruction employing the chondrocutaneous composite graft were studied, all followed up for 3 to 24 months (average, 13.5 months). All of the patients were reviewed retrospectively for the demographics, graft size, selection of the donor site and outcomes including morbidity and complications. Results The reasons for the deformity were burn scar (n=7), traumatic scar (n=4), smallpox scar (n=4), basal cell carcinoma defect (n=1), and scar contracture (n=1) from implant induced infection. In 5 cases of nostril stricture and 6 cases of alar defect and notching, composite grafts from the helix were used ($8.9{\times}12.5$ mm). In 4 cases of retracted ala, grafts from the posterior surface of the concha were matched ($5{\times}15$ mm). For the reconstruction of the columella, we harvested the graft from the posterior scapha ($9{\times}13.5$ mm). Except one case with partial necrosis and delayed healing due to smoking, the grafts were successful in all of the cases and there was no deformity of the donor site. Conclusions An alar and columellar defect can be reconstructed successfully with a relatively large composite graft without donor site morbidity. The selection of the donor site should be individualized according to the 3-dimensional configuration of the defect.

The majority of flexible bronchoscopies are performed under topical anesthesia with lidocaine being the most commonly used agent. Anaphylaxis rarely occurs after local administration of lidocaine, but can be a fatal complication. We experienced a case of unexpected anaphylaxis. A 66-year-old woman was scheduled for flexible bronchoscopy to evaluate a tracheal mass and stenosis. The oral and nasal mucosa were pretreated with lidocaine. About 2~3 minutes later, the patient developed hypotension and we treated for anaphylaxis in the emergency room. Then, we decided to perform rigid bronchoscopy in this patient, under conditions of general anesthesia. A rigid bronchoscopy was performed in this patient, safely and successfully. The tracheal mass was determined to be squamous cell carcinoma.

상악골 부분 절제술을 시행한 환자들은 저작, 발음, 연하 기능에 문제가 발생하고 안모의 변화로 인해 사회적, 심리적인 어려움을 겪게 된다. 따라서 악안면 보철적 치료를 통한 기능적, 심미적 회복이 매우 중요하다. 적절한 폐쇄 장치는 구개의 외형을 회복시키고 구강과 비강, 상악동, 비인두를 분리시킴으로써 연하와 발음 기능을 회복시키는데 목적이 있다. 본 증례는 편평상피암으로 인해 우측 상악 구치부에서 비인두에 이르기까지 상악골 부분 절제술을 시행한 환자에서 폐쇄장치를 제작하였다. 이를 통해 발음 및 연하 기능을 회복하고 저작 기능의 향상을 도모하였으며 심미적인 부분에서 개선이 이루어졌다. 1년간의 임상적 관찰기간 동안 만족스러운 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Background: The reconstruction of large full-thickness alar defects requires complex surgical procedures that are usually performed in two stages, with concomitant disadvantages in terms of patient trauma, surgical risk, and cost. This study presents a functional folded nasolabial island flap (FNIF) that can be used to repair large-sized full-thickness alar defects in a straightforward manner. Methods: This retrospective study included seven patients who received a FNIF for a full-thickness alar defect between January 2007 and December 2020. The FNIF is different from the conventional nasolabial flap in that it is folded and twisted to achieve nostril reconstruction with a satisfactory three-dimensional mucosal lining in a single stage. The cosmetic and functional results of FNIF were evaluated by both patients and physicians. Results: The age ranged from 51 to 82 years (mean, 65.6 years). The causes of the defects were squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and trigeminal trophic syndrome. The nostril lining did not collapse, there was no hypertrophic scarring, and air movement through the nostrils on the flap side was normal. Overall, FNIF produced excellent aesthetic and functional outcomes, with minimal patient discomfort. There were no postoperative complications. Conclusion: Compared with existing reconstruction methods for large full-thickness alar defects, FNIF can easily achieve aesthetic and functional success in a single-stage procedure. It provides satisfactory results for both the patient and the surgeon.

During a 10 year periods, 42 patients with well-documented Midline Malignant Reticulosis were treated with local irradiation and followed for extended periods of time. 13 cases with systemic manifestation after irradiation illustrate the protean features of this disease. Although it commonly Presents in upper airway tracts such as nasal cavity and/or septum, soft palate and palatine tonsil, the lesion may be localized as well as diffuse. 2 cases among them showed systemic relapse on lung, pancreas and scrotum probably from either a multifocal or metastatic deposits. Another 3 eases were associated with systemic diseases such as stomach carcinoma, typhoid enteritis and CNI of fat tissue. Remained cases were diagnosed by clinical or radiological examination. Possibility of close relation to lymphoma with Midline Malignant Reticulosis are also suggested in 1 case. In Midline Malignant Reticulosis, the best results of treatment are obtained in localized lesion of the upper airway treated early with irradiation: A poorer outcome is associated with multifocal systemic involvement, which necessitates a systemic therapy.
