  • Plate fixation has become the preferred approach for treating displaced midshaft clavicle fractures. However, plate fixation of the clavicle presents several unique challenges, including its complex bony architecture and its immediate subcutaneous location. In many cases, we have observed that precontoured implants do not conform to the clavicular anatomy, and many patients complain of postoperative implant-related discomfort. A total of 111 clavicles, both left and right sides, were examined to match two commonly used designs of anatomical pre-contoured superior anterior clavicle plates, with and without lateral extension. The anteroposterior (AP) plane congruence of the plate to the underlying bone, the vertical gap between the bone and plate, and the length of the plate that was off the bone either anteriorly and/or posteriorly at both ends of the clavicle were measured. The scoring system was used to determine the fit of the implant on the clavicle as anatomic, good, or poor. We found that the maximum superior bow of the clavicle was lateral to the midline by 30.75 mm and 30.5 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The magnitude of the bow was 4.28 mm and 4.46 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. We also found that the plate was a poor fit in 75.86% of cases on the left side and 73.5% of cases on the right side. Manipulating the plates during surgery was very difficult in the AP plane.

  • Objective : Selective neurotomy is generally a safe, effective, and long-lasting treatment for patients with spastic equinovarus foot deformity. We retrospectively analyzed the results of microsurgical selective tibial neurotomy (STN) for spastic feet in adults and children. Methods : A neurosurgeon selected 32 patients with 45 spastic feet (adults : 13, children : 32) to undergo microsurgical STN between October 1998 and September 2007. A physician of rehabilitation assessed spasticity pre- and postoperatively, that was based on the Ashworth scale, ankle clonus, and the amplitude of ankle dorsiflexion. The mean postoperative follow-up period was 36.7 months in adults and 42.5 months in children. Results : Spastic components of the feet were corrected immediately after surgery in both the adult and child groups. The mean Ashworth's grade changed from $3.6{\pm}0.40$ to $1.6{\pm}0.70$ in adults and from $3.7{\pm}0.69$ to $1.4{\pm}0.49$ in children. Mean ankle clonus decreased markedly, from $1.6{\pm}0.79$ to $0.3{\pm}0.42$ in adults and from $1.7{\pm}0.65$ to $0.3{\pm}0.56$ in children. The mean amplitude of ankle dorsiflexion was improved, but eight (adults: 4, children: 4) contracted feet needed complementary orthopedic correction for acceptable results. Conclusion : STN can be effective in the long-term for improving lower limb function and reduction of equinovarus deformity. Our results demonstrate that STN might be an effective procedure for treating localized harmful spastic feet in adults and children.

  • The purpose of this survey is to investigate the nutritional status and dietary intake of gastrectomized cancer patients in Asan Medical Center. The subjects were 98 patients, who underwent a gastrectomy due to gastric cancer and were admitted to the General Surgery Department during March 2007 to December 2007. We examined general characteristics (sex, age, clinicopathological stage, type of operation), anthropometric data (height, weight change), biochemical data (red blood cell RBC, hemoglobin HGB, hematocrit HCT, mean corpuscular volume MCV, total lymphocyte count TLC, albumin, total cholesterol), dietary intake and dietary intake related symptoms. Weight loss of gastrectomized patients was $9.0{\pm}4.3$% from preillness weight to visiting out-patient department (OPD) weight. Biochemical data (RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, TLC, albumin, total cholesterol) significantly deteriorated after gastrectomy. However, outpatient visits were all restored to the normal range. Postoperative energy intake was $785.0{\pm}164.2$ kcal, which corresponds to $41.6{\pm}9.6$% of daily energy requirement. The cause of poor oral intake is mostly fear, abdominal pain and abdominal discomfort. Therefore, to control pre-or post-operative weight change in the future requires, focusing on the body weight to maintain a normal or usual nutrition by interventions and increased caloric intake during hospitalization for the development of nutrient-dense meals. In addition, as the main reason of the lack of intake of meals after the gastrectomy was fear, the patients should be actively encouraged to consider the importance of eating proper meals.

  • Objective: Percutaneous kyphoplasty using a balloon-catheter is an widely accepted method which achieves the restoration of vertebral height and the correction of kyphotic deformity with little complication in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. The authors assess the results of 59 patients who underwent kyphoplasty, and analyze the factors that could affect the prognosis. Methods: From December 2001 to May 2003, fifty-nine patients underwent kyphoplasty. The patients included 49 women and 10 men aged 52-85 years. Average t-score on bone marrow density was -3.58. About 7cc of polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA) was injected into the fractured vertebral body using $Kyphon^{(R)}$ under local anesthesia. The vertical height of all fractured vertebrae was measured both before and after surgery. Outcome data were obtained by comparing pre- and post-operative VAS score and by assessing postoperative satisfaction, drug dependency and activity. Various clinical factors were analyzed to assess the relationship with the outcome. Results: The VAS score improved significantly, and the mean percentage of restored vertebral height was 53%. The mean improvement in kyphosis was $3.6^{\circ}$. Eighty-nine percent of the patients gained excellent or good results. Any of the clinical factors including the interval between fracture and operation, the degree of height loss, the degree of the vertebral height restoration or the correction rate of kyphosis did not affect the clinical results. Conclusion: Kyphoplasty is associated with a statistically significant improvement in pain and function with little complication. The clinical results are not affected by any clinical parameters. Further follow-up study is needed to determine whether the restoration affects the long-term clinical results.

  • 목적: 다발성 섬유성 이형성증에서 대퇴골두의 침범 부위 정도에 따라 분류하여 변형 정도를 분석하고 치료 경과에 대한 결과를 보고하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 1987년 3월부터 2014년 3월까지 전남대학교병원에 내원한 23명의 환자를 후향적 연구를 실시하였다. 대퇴골두 침범 부위에 따라 대퇴골두의 골단판 반흔 및 성장판을 침범하지 않은 Type I, 골단판 반흔 및 성장판을 침범한 Type II로 구분하였다. 단순방사선 촬영을 통해 대퇴경간각 및 비구-전자간 거리를 측정하였으며 측면사진을 통해 전방만곡을 측정하였다. 하지의 teleoroentgenogram을 통해 하지부동 및 하지 역학축의 변화를 측정하였다. 골스캔을 통해 하지병변의 위치와 변형을 확인하였다. 변형 교정 및 골절 치료를 위한 내고정술 전후의 대퇴경간각, 비구-전자간 거리를 비교하여 수술 후 교정의 소실 정도를 확인하였다. 결과: 총 23명(46하지) 중 23명(28하지)에서 근위 대퇴부에 병변이 있었다. Type I은 15/23명(16/28하지), Type II는 9/23명(12/28하지)이었다. 근위 대퇴골의 술 전 대퇴경간각은 Type I에서 116.8도, Type II에서 95.3도를 보였고, 비구-전자간 거리는 Type I에서 12.08 mm, Type II에서 -5.54 mm를 보여 Type II에서 의미 있게 변형이 심하였다. 수술 직후 변형 교정에 뚜렷한 호전을 보였으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 Type II의 경우 변형 교정이 소실됨을 보였다(대퇴경간각 Type I: 133.8-130.8도, Type II: 128.6-116.9도, 비구-전자간 거리 Type I: 17.66-15.72 mm, Type II: 7.44-4.16 mm). 전방 만곡은 Type I에서 평균 12.74도, Type II에서 평균 20.19도를 보였다. 실제 하지부동을 보인 총 9명에서 평균 12 mm 의 차이를 보였으며, 하지 역학축은 술 전을 기준으로 외측 편위 4하지, 내측 편위 7하지를 보였다. 결론: 다발성 섬유성 이형성증에서 대퇴골두를 침범한 경우 대퇴경간각 및 비구-전자간 거리, 대퇴골의 전방 만곡에서 훨씬 심한 변형을 보이고 수술 후 변형 교정의 소실 양상을 보여 병변의 대퇴골두 침범 여부가 환자의 예후에 중요한 인자임을 알 수 있었다. 내외반 변형뿐만 아니라 전방 만곡 등의 측면상의 변형 및 하지 역학축, 하지부동 등 전반적인 하지의 정렬을 고려해야 할 것으로 생각된다.

  • Objective: To investigate preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings associated with resection margin status in patients with invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) who underwent breast-conserving surgery. Materials and Methods: One hundred and one patients with ILC who underwent preoperative MRI were included. MRI (tumor size, multifocality, type of enhancing lesion, distribution of non-mass enhancement [NME], and degree of background parenchymal enhancement) and clinicopathological features (age, pathologic tumor size, presence of ductal carcinoma in situ [DCIS] or lobular carcinoma in situ, presence of lymph node metastases, and estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor/human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 status) were analyzed. A positive resection margin was defined as the presence of invasive cancer or DCIS at the inked surface. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine pre- and postoperative variables associated with positive resection margins. Results: Among the 101 patients, 21 (20.8%) showed positive resection margins. In the univariable analysis, NME, multifocality, axillary lymph node metastasis, and pathologic tumor size were associated with positive resection margins. With respect to preoperative MRI findings, multifocality (odds ratio [OR] = 3.977, p = 0.009) and NME (OR = 2.741, p = 0.063) were associated with positive resection margins in the multivariable analysis, although NME showed borderline significance. Conclusion: In patients with ILC, multifocality and the presence of NME on preoperative breast MRI were associated with positive resection margins.

  • 연구배경 : 오늘날 폐결핵의 치료에 있어 폐절제술이 폐결핵 치료의 보조적 역할을 하게 됨으로써 수술뿐 만 아니라 술전 및 술후 투약의 중요성이 강조되었다. 그러나, 폐결핵의 폐절제술 후 투약기간에 대해서는 관련 논문의 저자에 따라, 참고 문헌에 따라 다양하고 차이가 있다. 이에 본 연구는 폐결핵환자에서 폐절제술 후 투약 기간에 따른 재발율을 후향적으로 비교 분석함으로써 술후에 적절한 투약기간을 찾고자 하였다. 방법 : 국립마산결핵병원에서 1993년 1월부터 1998년 12월까지 폐절제술이 시행된 95예 중 수술 후 항결핵제로 치료종결하고 추적관찰이 가능했던 예, 술후 투약 중 치료실패 하였으나 약제 변경 등을 통하여 무사히 치료종결하고 추적관찰이 가능하였던 예, 술후 투약을 조기에 종결하고 추적관찰 가능하였으며, 재발 또는 악화된 예를 포함하여 총 66예를 대상으로 진료기록을 중심으로 조사하였다. 치료종결 후 술후 투약기간을 6, 9, 12, 18, 24개월 단위별, 기준별로 분류하여 각 군의 재발율을 ${\chi}^2$-test를 이용하여 비교 분석함으로써 술후 투약기간의 적절성 여부를 판정하였고, 연속 변수에 대하여는 student t-test를 이용하여 비교하였다. 결과 : 대상 환자 66 중 남자가 53예, 여자가 13예 이었고 16세에서 63세의 연령분포를 보였으며 중앙치가 33.5세 였다. 술후에 짧게는 2.7개월, 길게는 28.8개월 동안 투약하였고, 평균 투약기간은 12.9개월이었고, 술후 추적관찰기간은 평균 39.7개월이었다. 추적관찰 기간 중에 5예(7.6%)의 재발이 있었다. 과거력의 수가 2 이하인 군에서 술후 6개월 이하 투약군 10예 중에 2예(20%)의 재발이 발생하였고, 술후 6개월 초과 투약군 43예 중 1예(2.3%)의 재발이 발생하여 유의한 재발율의 차이를 보였다(p=0.03). 과거력의 수가 3이상인 군에서 술후 18개월 이하 투약군 9예 중에는 재발이 없었고, 18개월 초과 투약군 4예 중 2예(50%)의 재발이 발생하여 유의한 재발율의 차이를 보였다(p=0.02). 술후에 이차항결핵제사용군과 혼합약제사용군 사이에 투약기간의 차이는 없었으나, 일차항결핵제사용군과는 두 군이 모두 유의한 차이를 보였다. 이차항결핵제사용군에서는 술후에 평균 15.1개월의 투약 후 평균 24.4개월의 추적관찰기간 동안 21예 중 1예의 재발이 있어, 투약기간별 재발율을 비교한 결과 6, 9, 12개월 기준별 분류에서 유의한 차이를 볼 수 있었다(p=0.012,, 0.034, 0.034). 재발군 5예와 재발이 없었던 비재발군 61예의 특성을 성별, 나이, 술전 및 술후 사용약제 수, 술전 및 술후 사용 약재분류, 약제 감수성 검사 결과, 내성 약제 수, 과거 치료력의 횟수, 수술 직전 객담배양검사 결과, 술후 투약기간, 추적관찰기간, 치료실패율 등을 비교하였는데, 이 중에 재발군에서 1예(1/5, 20%), 비재발군에서 1예(1/61, 1.6%)의 재발이 발생하여 유의한 재발율의 차이를 보였다(p<0.001). 결론 : 상기의 연구결과를 바탕으로 우리는 술후 투약 중 치료실패가 재발의 주 요인이 될 수 있음을 알 수 있었고, 과거 치료력의 수가 2이하군에서는 술후에 최소한 6개월을 초과하는 투약기간이 필요하며, 다제 내성 등을 이유로 이차 항결핵제를 사용하는 군은 술후에 최소 12개월을 초과하는 투약기간이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, 좀더 명확한 투약기간을 확인하기 위해서 술후 잔류병변의 유무, 절제된 폐의 미생물학적, 병리조직학적인 결과, 수술 대상(Indications for operation) 등에 의한 폐절제술 후 투약기간을 공식화하는데 더 많은 연구와 분석이 있어야 하겠다.

  • Some biodegradable polymers and other materials such as hydrogels have shown the promising potential for surgical applications. Post surgical adhesion caused by the natural consequence of surgical wound healing results in repeated surgery and harmful effects. Recently, scientists have developed absorbable anti-adhesion barriers that can protect a tissue from adhesion in case they are in use; however, they are dissolved when no longer needed. Although these approaches have been attempted to fulfill the criteria for adhesion prevention, none can perfectly prevent adhesions in all situations. Overall, we developed a new method to fabricate an anti-adhesion membrane using biodegradable polymer and hydrogel. It employed a highly accurate three-dimensional positioning system with pressure-controlled syringe to deposit biopolymer solution. The pressure-activated microsyringe was equipped with fine-bore nozzles of various inner-diameters. This process allowed that inner and outer shapes could be controlled arbitrarily when it was applied to a surgical region with arbitrary shapes. In order to fulfill the properties of the ideal barriers f3r preventing postoperative adhesion, we adopted the pre-mentioned method combined with surface modification with the hydrogel coating by which anti-adhesion property was improved.

  • Objectives. Regenerative treatment using stem cells may serve as treatment option for empty nose syndrome (ENS), which is caused by the lack of turbinate tissue and deranged nervous system in the nasal cavity. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of the autologous stromal vascular fraction (SVF) in the treatment of ENS. Methods. In this prospective observational clinical study, we enrolled 10 ENS patients who volunteered to undergo treatment of ENS through the injection of autologous SVF. Data, including demographic data, pre- and postoperative Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-25 (SNOT-25) scores, overall patient satisfaction, and postoperative complications, were prospectively collected. Nasal secretion was assessed using the polyurethane foam absorption method, and the levels of biological markers were analyzed in both ENS group and control group using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The SVF extracted from abdominal fat was diluted and injected into both inferior turbinates. Results. Among the 10 initial patients, one was excluded from the study. Subjective satisfaction was rated as "much improved" in two and "no change" in seven. Among the improved patients, the mean preinjection SNOT-25 score was 55.0 and the score at 6 months after injection was 19.5. However, the average SNOT-25 score of nine participants at 6 months after injection (mean${\pm}$standard deviation, $62.4{\pm}35.8$) did not differ significantly from the baseline SNOT-25 score ($70.1{\pm}24.7$, P>0.05, respectively). Among the various inflammatory markers assessed, the levels of interleukin $(IL)-1{\beta}$, IL-8, and calcitonin gene-related peptide were significantly higher in ENS patients. Compared with preinjection secretion level, the nasal secretions from SVF-treated patients showed decreased expressions of $IL-1{\beta}$ and IL-8 after injection. Conclusion. Although SVF treatment appears to decrease the inflammatory cytokine levels in the nasal mucosa, a single SVF injection was not effective in terms of symptom improvement and patient satisfaction. Further trials are needed to identify a more practical and useful regenerative treatment modality for patients with ENS.

  • In cases of severe alveolar bony resorption in the edentulous posterior maxillae, implant placement is limited anatomically due to maxillary sinus. If the ridge is atrophic, the various bone grafting methods are required for the ridge augmentation. But the result of the onlay grafting procedure is not always promising. On the posterior maxilla, maxillary sinus mucosa lifting and bone grafting into the sinus floor, subantral augmentation(SA) technique are recommended. Various SA procedures have been developed for implant installation. We perfer to simultaneous block bone graft and implant installation through the residual alveolar ridge into the grafted block bone to fix the grafted bone and to gain the primary stability of the installed fixture. When a sagittal skeletal discrepancy in present due to the severe alveolar bony resorption of the maxilla, the advancement of the maxilla by Le Fort I osteotomy simultaneously with installation of implant fixtures combined with sinus lifting and interpositional bone graft procedure can be indicated. We applied various SA techniques for implant installtion to the 46 edentulous posterior maxillae, and total 154 implants were installed at our department from 1992 to 1999. Various SA techniques were classified in detail and the indications of each techniques were discussed. The changes of residual bony height following SA procedure were studied. The results were as follows. 1. The SA procedure combined with bone graft and simultaneous fixture installation were performed in 41 cases, 126 fixtures were installed and 5 fixtures were removed out of them. Le Fort I osteotomy procedure combined with sinus lifting and interpositional bone graft simultaneous with fixture installation were performed in 5 cases. Total 28 fixtures were installed and 2 fixtures were removed so far. 2. Autogenous block bone graft into sinus floor were performed in 35 cases, autogenous particulated marrow cancellous bone(PMCB) graft in 9 cases, and demineralized human bone powder in 2 cases. The donor site for bone graft were anterior iliac bone in 39 cases, posterior iliac bone in 3 cases and mandibular symphysis in 1 case and mandibular ramus in 1 case. 3. In 9 cases with which SA procedure had been performed with the block bone graft, the change of pre- and postoperative residual bony height were measured using MPR(multiplanar reformatted)-CT. The mean residual bony height was 8.0mm preoperatively, 20.2mm at 6 months following up operation and we gained average 12.2mm alveolar bony height. So, we can recommend this one-stage subantral augmentation and fixture installation technique as a time conserving, safe and useful method for compromised posterior edentulous maxilla.
