Purpose: The Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome is a rare disease entity that was first reported in 1993, and it is characterized by not only the cerebral hemiatrophy that is accompanied by the ipsilateral ventriculomegaly and ipsilateral compensatory osseous hypertrophy, but also the overgrowth of the paranasal sinuses. No studies have attempted to examine it from perspectives of the skull deformity and plastic surgery. Here, we report our case with a review of the literatures. Methods: A 45-year-old man with Dyke-Davidoff-Masson visited our medical institution with nasal bone fracture. Based on the previously taken brain MRI scans, we measured the degree of craniofacial deformity, and the horizontal distance, which is based on the margin of the skull, as well as the falx cerebri. Results: We made a comparison of the degree of craniofacial deformity. This showed that the mean horizontal distance on the axial view was shorter by approximately 28.46%, as compared with that of the left unaffected side. Conclusion: The Dyke-Davidoff-Masson is characterized by a concurrent presence of the atrophy of the cerebral hemisphere, with the cranial deformity. For the reconstruction of the bone and soft-tissue deformity with Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome, it is needed to perform objective assessments.

Mucormycosis is the common name given to several different diseases caused by fungi of the order Mucorales. The mucoraceae are ubiquitous fungi and are common inhabitants of decaying matter. In contrast to the widespread distribution of these fungi, disease in humans is limited, in most cases, to people with severe immunocompromised, diabetes mellitus, or trauma. 1be fungus gains entry to the body through the respiratory tract. The spores are presumably deposited in the nasal turbinates and may be inhaled into the pulmonary alveoli. The manifestations of mucormycosis are rhinocerebral, pulmonary, cutaneous, gastrointestinal, central nervous system, and miscellaneous. Sporadic reports can be found of mucormycosis involving other areas : heart, bones, kidney, bladder, mediastinum, and trachea. However, isolated tracheal mucormycosis is very rare. Therefore, we report a 57-year old, noninsulin dependent diabetic woman who presented with acute, severe degree of upper airway obstruction due to isolated mucormycosis of the trachea.

후비공 폐쇄는 협비막의 과열부전, 협인두막의 지속적 잔존, Olfactory pit의 발생시 불완전 등의 선천성 원인과, 매독디프테리아, 수술 후 또는 외상 등으로 오는 후천성으로 나눌 수 있으며 선천성인 경우에는 두부, 심장, 소화기 계통에 여러 가지 기형이 동반되기도 한다. Johann Roedere (1755년)은 이 질환의 예를 최초로 보고하였으며 Emmert (1853년)가 골성 폐쇄를 트로카를 이용하여 처음 수술을 시도한 이래 , 비강내, 구개, 상악동, 그리고 비중격을 통한 수술 방법이 제시되어 왔으나 이중 경주개 경유법이 술후 재협착 빈도가 가장 적고 또 수술시 폐쇄부의 확인이 용이하여 가장 널리 이용되고 있다. 저자들은 선천성 양측 부분적 골부 후비공 폐쇄를 보인 11세 남아와 선친성 우측 완전 골막부 후비공 폐쇄와 좌측 부분적 골막부 후비공 폐쇄와 좌측 부분적 골막부 후비공 폐쇄를 보인 9세 여아에서 경구개 경유법으로 치험하였기에 문헌적 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Purpose: Pnumosinus dilatans is a rare disease that one or more of the paranasal sinuses are dilatated without functional alteration. The most frequently involved sites are frontal and sphenoid sinus. Facial asymmetric contour is the most common signs and nasal obstruction and pain may be combined. The purpose of reconstruction of pneumosinus dilatans is two-fold, to re-establish a permanent pressure equilibrium of sinus and to correct the possible facial deformities. Methods: We present a case of a 24-year-old female with a 7-year history of protrusion of right malar region. Plane radiography and computed tomography detailed an abnormal expansion of the right maxillary sinus without thinning of bony wall, leading to diagnosis of maxillary pneumosinus dilatans. Surgical decompression and maxilloplasty were achieved by ostectomy of anterior wall of maxillary sinus and repositioning of removed bony fragment with miniplate. Results: Post operative course was uneventful without complication and malar height became symmetric by physical and radiologic examination. Conclusion: We corrected successfully pneumosinus dilatans of maxillary sinus by surgical decompression and maxilloplasty. For this case, we reviewed literature related to this topic.

Background: Klebsiella spp. is an important conditional pathogen in humans and animals. However, due to the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, the incidence of antimicrobial resistance has increased. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate antimicrobial resistance in strains of Klebsiella strains and the phylogenetic relatedness of extended-spectrum cephalosporin (ESC)-resistance among Klebsiella strains isolated from clinically ill companion animals. Methods: A total of 336 clinical specimens were collected from animal hospitals. Identification of Klebsiella species, determination of minimum inhibitory concentrations, detection of ESC resistance genes, polymerase chain reaction-based replicon typing of plasmids by conjugation, and multilocus sequence typing were performed. Results: Forty-three Klebsiella strains were isolated and, subsequently, 28 were identified as K. pneumoniae, 11 as K. oxytoca, and 4 as K. aerogenes. Eleven strains were isolated from feces, followed by 10 from ear, 7 from the nasal cavity, 6 from urine, 5 from genitals, and 4 from skin. Klebsiella isolates showed more than 40% resistance to penicillin, cephalosporin, fluoroquinolone, and aminoglycoside. ESCresistance genes, CTX-M groups (CTX-M-3, CTX-M-15, and CTX-M-65), and AmpC (CMY-2 and DHA-1) were most common in the K. pneumoniae strains. Some K. pneumoniae carrying CTX-M or AmpC were transferred via IncFII plasmids. Two sequence types, ST709 and ST307, from K. pneumoniae were most common. Conclusions: In conclusion, this is the first report on the prevalence, ESCresistance genotypes, and sequence types of Klebsiella strains isolated from clinically ill companion animals. The combination of infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance by Klebsiella in companion animals suggest that, in clinical veterinary, antibiotic selection should be made carefully and in conjunction with the disease diagnosis.

Pathogens such as feline herpesvirus, feline calicivirus, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Chlamydia felis, Mycoplasma felis and Pasteurella multocida usually cause feline upper respiratory tract disease (URTD). Real-time PCR was used to analyze the detection and prevalence of the most common respiratory pathogens in cats with (n=69) and without respiratory signs (n=31). Pathogens were detected in 53 cats, divided into 37 (69.8%) with a single pathogen, 15 (28.3%) with two pathogens, and 1 (1.9%) with three pathogens. M. felis had the highest detection rate in 29 (42.0%) cats, P. multocida was detected in 18 (26.1%), FHV in 10 (14.5%), FCV in 7 (10.1%), B. bronchiseptica in 3 (4.3%), and C. felis in 2 (2.9%). M. felis was the most frequently detected pathogen in cats living outdoors without vaccination. Of the 37 cats infected with single pathogen, nasal discharge was observed in 13 (35.1%), ocular signs in 6 (16.2%), drooling in 5 (13.5%), dyspnea in 3 (8.1%), and asymptomatic in 10 (27.0%). In 51 outdoor and 49 indoor cats, pathogens were detected in 35 (68.6%) and 18 (36.7%) cats, respectively. Of the 29 cats infected with M. felis, 22 (75.9%) showed respiratory signs, and 7 (24.1%) were healthy. In the age of the 53 positive cats, 10 (18.9%) were under the age of 1 year, 26 (49.1%) were aged 1~3 years, and 17 (32.1%) were aged 3 years or older. Although the number of cats in the study was small, the results can provide valuable data on the prevalence of URTD in Korean cats.
