Poland씨 증후군과 관련된 흉벽기형은 매우 드문 질환으로 선천적으로 대흉근의 흉골부 결손과 한쪽 상지의 다양한 기형을 동반한다. 또한 Poland씨 증후군의 다른 임상적 특징은 유방과 유두의 결손 및 저형성, 피하 지방과 액모의 결손, 늑연골 및 늑골전면부의 이상을 포함한다. 그 기원은 확실하지 않으나 유전과는 관계 가 없는 것으로 알려져 있다. Poland씨 증후군은 심한 정신적인 그리고 신체적인 문제를 일으킬 수 있으며 초기 발견 및 수술적 교정이 이득이 될 것으로 생각된다. 본원은 Poland씨 증후군으로 진단된 37세 남자환자를 성공적으로 수술치험하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

배관의 축방향 균열 검사를 위하여 원주 방향으로 진행하는 유도초음파 모드를 적용하였다. 배관의 곡률을 변수로 원주 유도초음파의 분산선도를 계산하였으며 이를 배관 검사에 적용하기 위하여 중수로 피더관의 곡관부 축방향 균열을 탐지에 적용하였다. 상대적으로 낮은 주파수에서는 Lamb 파 특성을 따르나 주파수가 증가함에 따라 평판의 경우, 즉 곡률이 무한대인 경우 첫 번째 $A_0$ 모드와 두 번째 $S_0$ 모드가 합쳐져서 Rayleigh 모드 형태로 변화한다. 한편 곡률을 가진 배관의 경우는 주파수가 증가하더라도 첫 번째 모드와 두 번째 모드가 합쳐지지 않았다. 이러한 해석을 기초로 하여 배관의 일종인 중수로 피더관 곡관부 축방향 결함을 탐지하기 위하여 사각 탐촉자를 사용하여 Rocking 원주 유도초음파 기법을 적용하였다. 원주 방향으로 유도파를 진행시키면서 인공 결함으로부터의 수집된 신호를 분석하여 진동 모드를 확인하였으며 두께 대비 10% 깊이의 notch도 검출할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Copper filling into TSV (through-silicon-via) and reduction of the filling time for the three dimensional chip stacking were investigated in this study. A Si wafer with straight vias - $30\;{\mu}m$ in diameter and $60\;{\mu}m$ in depth with $200\;{\mu}m$ pitch - where the vias were drilled by DRIE (Deep Reactive Ion Etching) process, was prepared as a substrate. $SiO_2$, Ti and Au layers were coated as functional layers on the via wall. In order to reduce the time required complete the Cu filling into the TSV, the PPR (periodic pulse reverse) wave current was applied to the cathode of a Si chip during electroplating, and the PR (pulse-reverse) wave current was also applied for a comparison. The experimental results showed 100% filling rate into the TSV in one hour was achieved by the PPR electroplating process. At the interface between the Cu filling and Ti/ Au functional layers, no defect, such as a void, was found. Meanwhile, the electroplating by the PR current showed maximum 43% filling ratio into the TSV in an hour. The applied PPR wave form was confirmed to be effective to fill the TSV in a short time.

Background: Although prompt surgery after an orbital fracture is preferable, the actual timing of surgery in real-world settings varies. Therefore, this study investigated the outcomes of implant surgery for inferior orbital wall fractures by comparing three groups according to the time interval between the injury and surgery. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of patients' medical charts and initial computed tomography images from 2009 to 2020. The time to treatment was chosen by patients or their guardians based on the patients' comorbidities and the physician's explanation. The patients were divided into three groups according to the time of surgery (group 1: 3-7 days, group 2: 8-14 days, group 3: 15 or more days). Data were collected on age, the time interval until surgery, the dimensions of the defect, the operation time, the follow-up period, and the postoperative paresthesia score (ranging from 0 to 10). The outcomes were evaluated using a 4-point scale: 4=good (no complications), 3=fair (no subjective symptoms), 2=poor (remaining paresthesia), and 1=very poor (strabismus and/or enophthalmos). Results: The study included 85 patients with unilateral fractures who underwent surgery from 3 to 93 days after injury. The overall score distribution of the surgical outcomes was as follows: good=63, fair=7, poor=6, and very poor=9. The three groups showed no significant differences in the transverse dimension of the injury (p=0.110) or the anteroposterior dimension (p=0.144). In groups 1, 2, and 3, the postoperative outcome scores were 3.84±0.37, 3.63±0.87, and 2.93±1.33 (p=0.083), and the percentage of patients with good outcomes was 84%, 81.25%, and 57.14%, respectively. Conclusion: Performing surgery using an artificial implant within 2 weeks of the injury showed better outcomes and fewer postoperative complications than when treatment was delayed.

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare, progressive, life-threatening condition of thrombotic microangiopathy characterized by thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, and renal impairment. The mechanisms underlying aHUS remain unclear. Herein, we present the first case in the literature of aHUS after a traumatic injury. A 55-year-old male visited the emergency department after a traumatic injury caused by a tree limb. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a rectal wall defect with significant air density in the perirectal space and preperitoneum, implying rectal perforation. Due to the absence of intraperitoneal intestinal perforation, we performed diverting sigmoid loop colostomy. An additional intermittent simple repair was performed due to perianal and anal injuries. One day postoperatively, his urine output abruptly decreased and serum creatinine level increased. His platelet level decreased, and a spiking fever occurred after 2 days. The patient was diagnosed with acute renal failure secondary to aHUS and was treated with fresh frozen plasma replacement. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) was also started for oliguria and uremic symptoms. The patient received CRRT for 3 days and intermittent hemodialysis thereafter. After hemodialysis and subsequent supportive treatment, his urine output and renal function improved. The hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia also gradually improved. Dialysis was terminated on day 22 of admission and the patient was discharged after recovery. This case suggests that that a traumatic event can trigger aHUS, which should be considered in patients who have thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are critical for favorable outcomes.

Background: The combined use of biomaterials for regeneration may have great biological relevance. This study aimed to compare the regenerative potential of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) alone and with growth factor enamel matrix derivatives (EMDs) for the regeneration of intrabony defects at 1 year. Methods: This randomized controlled trial included 40 sites in 29 patients with stage II/III periodontitis and 2/3 wall intrabony defects that were treated with BCP alone (control group) or a combination of BCP and EMD (test group). BCP alloplastic bone grafts provide better bio-absorbability and accelerate bone formation. EMDs are commercially available amelogenins. Mean values and standard deviations were calculated for the following parameters: plaque index (PI), papillary bleeding index (PBI), vertical probing pocket depth (V-PPD), vertical clinical attachment level (V-CAL), and radiographic defect depth (RDD). Student paired and unpaired t-tests were used to compare the data from baseline to 12 months for each group and between the groups, respectively. The results were considered statistically significant at p<0.05. Results: At 12 months, the PI and PBI scores of the control and test groups were not significantly different (p>0.05). The mean V-PPD difference, V-CAL gain, and RDD difference were statistically significant in both groups at 12 months (p<0.001 for all parameters). Intergroup comparisons showed that the mean V-PPD reduction (2.13±1.35 mm), V-CAL gain (2.53±1.2 mm), and RDD fill (1.33±1.0 mm) were statistically significant between the groups at 12 months (p<0.001 for all parameters). Conclusion: BCP and EMDs combination is a promising modality for the regeneration of intrabony defects.

The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is the regeneration of periodontal tissue which has been lost due to destructive periodontal disease. To achieve periodontal regeneration, various kinds of methods have been investigated and developed, including guided tissue regeneration and bone graft. Bone graft can be catagorized into autografts, allografts, xenografts, bone substitutes. And materials of all types have different biological activity and the capacity for periodontal regeneration, but ideal graft material has not been developed that fits all the requirement of ideal bone graft material. Intensive research is underway to identity, purify, synthesize a variety biologic modulators that may enhance wound healing and regeneration of lost tissues in periodontal therapy. The present study evaluates the effects of ABM/P-15 on the periodontal regeneration in intrabony defects of human. We used thirty four 2-wall or 3-wall osseous defects in premolars and molars of chronic peridontitis patient that have more than 5mm pockets and more than 3mm in intrabony defect. 12 negative control group underwent flap procedure only, 11 positive control group received DFDBA graft with flap procedure, and 11 experimental group received ABM/P-15 graft with flap procedure. The changes of probing pocket depth, loss of attachment and bone probing depth following 6months after treatment revealed the following results: 1. The changes of probing pocket depth showed a statistically significant decrease between after scaling and 6months after treatment in negative control(2.0${\pm}$0.9mm), positive control(3.0${\pm}$0.9mm), and experimental group (3.4${\pm}$1.5mm) (P<0.01). Significantly more reduction was seen in experimental group compared to negative control group (P<0.05). 2. The changes of loss of attachment showed a statistically significant decrease between after scaling and 6months after treatment in positive control(2.0${\pm}$0.6mm), and experimental group (2.2${\pm}$l.0mm) except negative control group(0.1${\pm}$0.7mm) (P<0.01). Significantly more reduction was seen in both experimental and positive control group compared to negative control group(P<0.05). 3. The changes of bone probing depth showed a statistically significant decrease between after scaling and 6months after treatment in positive control(2.7${\pm}$l.0mm), and experimental group (3.4${\pm}$1.3mm) except negative control(0.l${\pm}$0.9mm) (9<0.01). Significantly more reduction was seen in both experimental and positive control group compared to negative control group (P<0.05). The results suggest that the use of ABM/P-15 in the treatment of periodontal intrabony defects can reduce loss of attachment and bone probing depth more than flap operation only. It suggests that ABM/P-15 may be an effective bone graft material for the regeneration of periodontal tissue in intrabony defects.

목적 : 좌각차단이나 우심실조율박동과 같은 부정맥을 가진 환자들에서 심근관류는 의미있게 변화한다는 것이 알려져 있다. 비정상적인 심근관류는 심실조기흥분에 의해서도 야기될 수 있다고 알려져 있지만, 그 위치 범위 강도와 부전도로와의 관계는 아직 정립되어 있지 않았다. 이에 WPW 증후군 환자에서 부전도로의 위치와 SPECT상에서 관류양상의 관계에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : WPW 증후군 환자 11명에 대해 Adenosine 99m-Tc MIBI 또는 Tl-201 심근관류 SPECT를 시행하였다, 관류결손은 Fitzpatrick's algorithm을 기초로 한 심전도 또는 전기생리학적검사 및 전극도자 절제술을 이용한 부전도로의 위치와 비교하였다. 결과: 11명의 환자들의 평균 나이는 $39.9{\pm}8.6$세 였고, 비특이적인 흉통을 호소하거나, 증상이 없었다. 11명 모두 관삳동맥의 위험도에 관한 계산도표를 이용하여 관상동맥질환의 확률을 예측했으나 0.1 이하로 위험도가 낮았고 이중 4명은 관상동맥조영술을 시행한 결과 3명은 정상이었고 1명은 관동맥 협착 (50%) 부위의 심근혈류가 정상이었다. 4명의 환자에서 전기생리학적검사 및 전극도자 절제술을 시행하였다. 9명의 가역적 그리고 1명의 비가역적 관류결손이 관찰되었고. 범위는 소에서 대까지 강도는 경도에서 중등도까지 나왔다. 부전도로의 위치가 우외측인 1명은 관류결손이 없었으나, 그 외의 환자들은 다양한 양상을 보였다. 부전도로의 위치가 좌외측인 환자중 1명에 대해 전극도자 절제술을 시행하였고 6주후에 SPECT를 한 결과 시술 전에 있던 관류결손의 범위가 현저하게 감소하였다. 결론: WPW환자에서 심근관류결손은 다양한 범위, 강도 및 위치를 가진다. 거의 대부분의 환자에서 비정상적인 관류결손이 나타났으나, SPECT 소견으로 부전도로의 위치를 특이적으로 예측하기는 어려웠다. 그러므로 WPW증후군 환자에서 심근관류 SPECT의 결과를 주의 깊게 해석해야 한다.
