B] familial: normal faces and intelligence; C] nonfamilial syndrome with abnormal facial appearance and mental retardation. Recently, we experienced a boy with type C characteristics of this syndrome and surgical correction which was consisted of a vertical incision across narrowed segment of the aorta, with the insertion of a prosthetic, Goretex patch, was performed successfully.

Recently, 4 cases underwent successful surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot combined with pulmonary atresia in 2 cases, with abnormal coronary artery in another 2 cases. The operation consisted of a patch repair to the ventricular septal defect. The pulmonary atresia and stenosis were corrected with the method of external connection, from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery using the valved conduits.

Syphilitic aortic aneurysm is a rare lesion today. We experienced a case of huge syphilitic ascending aortic aneurysm with aortic insufficiency. Surgical correction was done by replacement of ascending aorta with woven Dacron graft and aortic valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass. There is no abnormality in postoperative aortography. The postoperative course was uneventful.

Purpose: The incomplete reduction of the sesamoid has lately been issued as cause for recurrence. In this study, we analysed factors that may influence reduction of sesamoid. Materials and Methods: The study consists of 50 cases operated by single surgeon. Eighteen cases were done by proximal chevron osteotomy, and 32 cases were done by scarf osteotomy. Hallux valgus (HV) angle and intermetatarsal (IM) angle were measured before and three months after the surgery. Sesamoid position (SP) was classified according to Hardy and Clapham grade system. Results: After the proximal chevron osteotomy, the correction of the mean HV angle was $19.5^{\circ}$, and IM angle was $6.2^{\circ}$. SP was changed from 5.6 to 3.4 grade. After the Scarf osteotomy, the correction of the mean HV angle was 25 degree, and IM angle was $9^{\circ}$. SP was changed from 5.5 to 2.8 grade. There was difference of sesamoid's correction between two different method of surgery (p=0.127). However, better correction of sesamoid was witnessed with bigger correction angle regardless of method of surgery (p=0.002, 0.001). Conclusion: We believe surgical method do not effect sesamoid's correction but more correction angle can result in better correction of sesamoid position.

Cor triatriatum is a relatively rare cardiac anomaly, whose major feature is a fenestrated membrane separating an upper common pulmonary venous chamber from a lower true left atrial cavity. Interatrial communications may be present between the right atrium and the common pulmonary venous chamber or the true left atrium. From April 1981 to April 1992, 24 patients with cor triatriatum were treated at Seoul National University Hospital. Ages ranged from 1 month to 24 years with mean of 7.4 years. Twenty patients had interatrial communications through a patent foramen ovale, primum or secundum defect of the atrial septum. Four had no interatrial communications. Fourteen patients had associated anomalies; partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection in 3, total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in 2, persistent left superior vena cava in 3, and other anomalies in 6 patients. Surgical corrections were performed through right atriotomy in 18 patients, left atriotomy in 4, and both atriotomy in 2. Three patients [12.5%] died early after operation; two of them were associated with single ventricle. Six out of 21 survivors [28.6%] experienced complications; recurrent pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, ischemic encephalopathy, diaphragmatic palsy and tachyarrhythmias. At the time of follow up, all survivors, except one, were in functional class I. Surgical correction of cor triatriatum restored normal hemodynamic status with relatively low operative mortality, especially in patients not complicated with severe anomalies. This report summarizes the clinical diagnosis, associated anomalies, interatrial communications, surgical approach and late result of 24 patients underwent surgical corrections in our hospital.

Esthetic reconstruction of cleft lip nose deformity is a challenging task in surgical management of patients with orofacial cleft. The author reconstructed cleft lip nose deformity effectively using autogenous auricular cartilage and a relatively new graft material of porcine dermal collagen, $Permacol^{TM}$. After correction of the deformed lower third of the nose with patient's auricular cartilage, we applied $Permacol^{TM}$ to augment the entire nasal dorsum. Three patients were treated and followed for up to five years. All patients improved in nose aesthetics without any inflammatory or immunogenic reaction. The author suggests that the use of $Permacol^{TM}$ for nasal profile augmentation in the treatment of cleft lip nose deformity is an alternative surgical strategy with minimal surgical invasiveness. The author report long-term experience with combined use of auricular cartilage and $Permacol^{TM}$ in nasal reconstruction for cleft lip nose deformity.

Anomalous origin of a pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta is a rare congenital cardiovascular anomaly which usually involves the right pulmonary artery. For operative reconstruction, the surgical technique of choice used to be a direct end-to-side anastomosis of the ectopic pulmonary artery to the main pulmonary artery. A case of right pulmonary artery arising from the ascending aorta associated with a contralateral patent ductus arteriosus is presented, with description of a new modified surgical technique. The operation was done on cardiopulmonary bypass with deep hypothermia. After closure of PDA, a side-to-side anastomosis between the RPA and MPA, roofed with Gore-Tex patch, was established. The postoperative course was excellent, and the postoperative angiography revealed complete anatomic correction.
