Most orbital surgeons believe that it's difficult to restore the primary orbital wall to its previous position and that the orbital wall is so thin that cannot be firmly its primary position. Therefore, orbital wall fractures generally have been reconstructed by replacing the bony defect with a synthetic implant. Although synthetic implants have sufficient strength to maintain their shape and position in the orbital cavity, replacement surgery has some drawbacks due to the residual permanent implants. In previous studies, the author has reported an orbital wall restoring technique in which the primary orbital wall fragment was restored to its prior position through a combination of the transorbital and transantral approaches. Simple straight and curved elevators were introduced transnasally to restore the orbital wall and to maintain temporary extraorbital support in the maxillary and ethmoid sinus. A transconjunctival approach provided sufficient space for implant insertion, while the transnasal approach enabled restoration of the herniated soft tissue back into the orbit. Fracture defect was reduced by restoring the primary orbital wall fragment to its primary position, making it possible to use relatively small size implant, furthermore, extraorbital support from both sinuses decreased the incidence of implant displacement. The author could recreate a natural shape of the orbit with the patient's own orbital bone fragments with this dual approach and effectively restored the orbital volume and shape. This procedure has the advantages for retrieving the orbital contents and restoring the primary orbital wall to its prior position.

Double primary cancer is a rare disease in which two cancers occur in an individual independently. As prolonged survival of patients with malignant tumors is expected in the future due to advances in methods of treatment, the chance of double primary cancer will be increased. We experienced one case of double primary cancer which was developed in esophagus and chest wall. A 72 year-old male visited our hospital complaining of epigastric discomfort and right chest wall mass. We studied esophagus, chest wall, and other organs including gastrointestinal tract by various methods to exclude the cancer of other sites and could diagnose squamous cell carcinoma of mid-esophagus and adenocarcinoma of chest wall. The patient underwent esophagogastrostomy following esophagectomy and wide-resection of chest wall tumor. The postoperative course was uneventful.

Background: We have reported orbital wall restoration surgery with primary orbital wall fragment in pure blowout fractures using a combination of transorbital and transnasal approach in pure blow out fractures. However, this method was thought to be difficult to use for complex orbital wall fractures, since the sharp screw tip that fixate the maxillary wall increases the risk of balloon ruptures. In this study, we reviewed 23 cases of complex orbital fractures that underwent orbital wall restoration surgery with primary orbital wall fragment and evaluated the result. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of 23 patients with complex orbital fracture who underwent orbital restoration surgery with primary orbital wall fragments between 2012 and 2019. The patients underwent orbital wall restoration surgery with primary orbital wall fragment with temporary balloon support. The surgical results were evaluated by the Naugle scale and a comparison of preoperative and postoperative orbital volume ratio. Complex fracture type, type of screw used for fixation and complications such as balloon rupture were also investigated. Results: There were 23 patients with complex orbital fracture that used transnasal balloon technique for restoration. 17 cases had a successful outcome with no complications, three patients had postoperative balloon rupture, two patients had soft-tissue infection, and one patient had balloon malposition. Conclusion: The orbital wall restoration technique with temporary balloon support can produce favorable results when done correctly even in complex orbital wall fracture. Seventeen cases had favorable results, six cases had postoperative complications thus additional procedure seems necessary to complement this method.

Primary tumors of the chest wall are rare than those of other portions of the body. Soft tissue tumors of the chest wall, though these are benign or malignant, should not be paid special attentions about their management than other soft tissue tumors of the body. Thoracic skeletal tumors, however, have some problems in the treatment because of defect in chest wall leading to herniation of lung and paradoxical movement of thoracic cage. The authors experienced 10 case of primary chest wall tumors at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, the national medical center, during last 15 years. Five of 10 cases were soft tissue tumors, and they were 2 case of lipoma and each one case of myxosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma. Among 5 bone tumors there no cases of sternal tumor, and their histopathological diagnosis were each one of fibrous dysplasia, giant cell tumor, osteochondroma, Ewing`s sarcoma and osteogenic sarcoma. Wide excision, though it was palliative one in certain case, was performed in 9 cases and only diagnostic incisional biopsy in one case, There were no postoperative deaths during admission to the hospital and all cases were missed during short term follow up after discharge from the hospital.

An unusual case of primary leiomyosarcoma at the left lower posterior chest wall with metastasis to the right lung parenchyme is presented. The patient was a 43-year-old man who was asymptomatic but a slow growing hard mass was noted at the left lower posterior chest wall. The chest computed tomography showed a tumor at the left lower posterior chest wall with multiple metastasis to the right lung. The left lower posterior chest wall mass was examined by percutaneous needle aspiration and it was revealed as rhabdomyosarcoma histologically. En bloc resection to the left lower posterior chest wall tumor and metastasectomy to the multiple nodules in the right lung were done and pathological examination finally revealed primary leiomyosarcoma at the left lower posterior chest wall with multiple metastasis to the right lung. Chemotherapy was scheduled as adjunctive measure.

We have experienced 49 cases of tumors of chest wall at St. Mary`s Hospital from Jan. 1963 to Dec.1974. In four cases of them, the reconstruction of chest wall defects performed. 1] Out of 49 cases of tumors of the chest wall, 27 cases were benign tumors, 14 cases metastatic malignant tumors, and 8 cases primary malignant tumors. 2] Twenty-six cases [50%] of tumors of the chest wall were on the bony cage. Among them benign tumors were 9 cases [35%], metastatic malignant tumors 14 cases [53%], and primary malignant tumors 3 cases [12%]. Of these, 24 cases were located on the ribs and 2 cases on the sternum.3] The malignant tumors of bony chest wall were excised in en bloc resection including involved ribs. The wide defects of bony chest wall were reconstructed by means of displacement of neighboring ribs and mobilized diaphragm, in the two osteogenic sarcomas of rib, and of prosthesis with silastic sheets in one rhabdomyosarcoma and one metastatic adenocarcinoma of lung.

This case was successfully constructed as a leakage prevention case of primary 2-arch tunnel located in Anyang, Gyungkido. The leakage of primary 2-arch tunnel was observed at middle wall of tunnel and girder of tunnel. Such a leakage of primary 2-arch tunnel generally occurred due to the damage of the waterproof membrane constructed on the middle wall during the blasting works of right and left tunnel after construction of the middle wall. As the leakage, icicles hanged from girder of tunnel in the winter. In such phenomenon, the risk of the traffic accident in the tunnel was high. In this case, leakage prevention works were successfully constructed using the heat insulated drainage.
