의학의 발달과 더불어 종양에 대한 국소치료는 광범위근치술(extended radical surgery) 로부터 기능보존술(function preserving surgery)로 발달하고 이것은 다시 최소침습술(minimal-invasive surgery)로 발전하여 왔다. 그러나 최근 들어서는 기술의 혁신적인 진보로 비침습적수술법(non-invasive surgery)이 개발되어 감마나이프(gamma knife), 사이버나이프(cyber knife), 및 하이푸나이프(HIFU knife) 등이 출현하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 이들 중 하이푸나이프를 이용한 체외강력집속초음파치료(extracorporeal high intensity focused ultrasound therapy)에 대하여 발달사, 치료기 구조 및 치료과정, 조직학적 변화와 기전, 임상적용, 장단점 및 전망 등을 살펴보고자 한다.

Titanium (Ti) has been widely used for dental implant due to great biocompatibility and bonding ability against natural alveolar bone. A lot of titanium surface modification has been introduced in dentistry and, among them, methods to introduce micro/nano-roughened surface were considered as clinically approved strategy for accelerating osseointegration of Ti dental implant. To have synergetic effect with topography oriented favors in cell attachment, chair-side surface treatment with reproducibility of micro/nano-topography is introduced as next strategy to further enhance cellular functionalities. Extensive research has been investigated to study the potential of micro/nano-topography preserved chair-side surface treatment for Ti dental implant. This review will discuss ultraviolet, low level of laser therapy and non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma on Ti dental implant with micro/nano-topography as next generation of surface treatment due to its abilities to induce super-hydrophilicity or biofunctionality without change of topographical cues.

인공관절은 노인성 질환이나 자가 면역질환, 신체적인 외상 등에 의한 관절의 손상 부위를 대체하기 위해 고안된 관절의 인공대용물로써 최근 인구의 고령화와 질병, 사고의 증가에 따라 그 수요가 급격히 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 인공관절의 소재로는 현재 metal-on-polymer(MOP) 소재가 가장 많이 사용되고 있는데, metal 소재로서는 Co-Cr계 합금이, polymer 소재로서는 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌 (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene) 이 주로 사용되고 있다. MOP 소재의 경우 충격흡수의 장점이 있는 반면 wear debris에 의한 골용해로 인해 관절이 느슨해지는 문제점이 발생하여 재시술의 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 또한 metal 소재로 주로 사용되고 있는 Co-Cr계 합금의 경우 인공관절의 마모, 부식 현상에 의해 Co, Cr등이 체내에 용출되어 세포독성의 문제를 일으킬 수 있다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고체원소 이온주입 기술을 이용하여 316L stainless steel 기판에 niobium을 이온 주입 한 후 niobium nitride (NbN) 박막을 증착하여 counterpart 소재인 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌(UHMWPE) 의 마모를 줄이는 실험을 진행하였다. Pin-on-disk tribometer를 통해 마모 테스트를 진행하여 NbN 박막의 내마모특성을 평가하였으며, 박막의 결정구조 및 화학적 특성을 평가하기 위해 XRD, AES 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 박막의 경도와 표면조도를 측정하기 위해 micro hardness tester, AFM을 이용하였다.

Tissue engineering is an emerging, innovative technology to improve or replace the biological functions of damaged tissues and organs. Scaffolds are important materials for tissue engineering as they support cell attachment, migration, and differentiation. Marine sponges naturally contain scaffolds formed by extracellular matrix proteins (collagen and sponging) and strengthened by a siliceous or calcium carbonate skeleton. Coral skeletons are also derived naturally formed by essential calcium carbonate in the form of aragonite, and are similar to human bone. In addition, collagen extracted from jellyfish is a biosafe alternative to bovine and porcine collagen and gained attention as a potential source for tissue engineering. Moreover, cuttlefish bone is an excellent calcium source and can be used to generate bio-synthetic calcium phosphate. It has become a natural candidate for biomimetic scaffolds. This review describes the use of natural products derived from marine invertebrates for applications in bone tissue engineering based on studies from 2008 to 2014.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate effect of the manual joint mobilization to the patients with knee osteoarthritis and to determine the effect of pain, range of motion, body function and balance after applying it. METHODS: The thirty participants who complained the knee pain were randomly assigned to control (Con) group (n=15) that received the general physical therapy and experimental (Exp) group (n=15) that received the applied the manual joint mobilization and the general physical therapy three times per week, 30 minutes per day for four weeks. It measured the visual analogue scale (VAS), the range of motion (ROM), body function (WOMAC) and balance (TUG). RESULTS: It showed the significantly different between the control group and experiment group in VAS, ROM and WOMAC. After 4 weeks, the experiment group was significantly different from other group in VAS, ROM and WOMAC. But the measurement of balance did not show the significantly difference within group and between groups. CONCLUSION: This results suggest that Manual joint mobilization was effective in pain, ROM, function in patient with knee osteoarthritis.

To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect on Degenerative Osteoarthritis, Male sprague-Dawley rats were randomized and classified into three different concentration groups. We measured weekly weight change, dietary intake, drinking water intake, blood analysis like TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-α), IL-6 (interleukin 6), TIMP-1 (tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease-1), MMP-2 (matrix metalloprotease-2), MMP-9 (matrix metalloprotease-9) and micro CT analysis. The results suggest that the treatment with herbal complex HP-04 improved the Monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) induced degenerative osteoarthritis and it could be applicable for the improvement of arthritic symptoms as a new therapeutic agent.

본 논문에서는 골절 치료에 사용되고 있는 기존의 금속판과 나사고정 장치를 개선하여, 뼈에 점진적인 생리하중을 가할 수 있도록 고안된 내고정 장치를 살펴보았다. 이 장치는 골절판과 나사를 결합할 때, 그 사이에 생분해성 재질이나 기타 댐핑 특성이 우수한 재질의 와셔를 삽입하는 것을 그 특징으로 한다. 본 논문에서는 주로 이 장치의 충격 흡수 특성을 파악하기 위해, 돼지 대퇴골과 소 경골에대해 충격 망치를 이용하여 얻은 진동 실험 결과를 보여주며, 특히 와셔의 유무에 따른 충격 흡수 특성을 실험적으로 비교하였다.

Background: Autogenous alveolar bone cell transplantation may be suitable for tissue engineering for alveolar bone reconstruction. This study aimed to isolate human alveolar bone-derived cells (HABDCs) and to evaluate the ability of collagen gels to support HABDC proliferation and differentiation for human alveolar bone tissue engineering applications. Method: Cultures of primary HABDCs were established from alveolar bone chips obtained from 10 persons undergoing tooth extraction. These cells were expanded in vitro until passage 3 and used for the in vitro characterization of HABDCs and the in vitro analysis of collagen gels for alveolar bone tissue engineering. Results: Of the 10 attempts made to obtain HABDC cultures, eight were successful. HABDCs expressed the osteoblastic phenotype characterized by alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin expression and the mineralization of the extracellular matrix in vitro. When seeded on collagen gels, HABDCs penetrated into the collagen gel matrices and proliferated inside the gels. Significantly, when HABDCs were embedded into the gels, collagen fibers and mineralization were produced within the gels. Conclusion: This study demonstrates the feasibility of using cultured HABDCs and collagen gels for human alveolar bone tissue engineering applications.

거대 세포종(GCT)의 악성화 (malignant transformation)는 매우 드문 것으로 알려져 있다. 주로 악성화는 방사선 치료 후 발생하는 것으로 보고 되고 있으며, 방사선 치료 없이 악성화 하는 경우는 더욱 더 드물게 보고 되고 있다. 방사선 소견만으로는 진단하기 어려우며, 병리학적 진단 또한 종종 쉽지 않은 경우가 있다. 예후가 매우 불량하여 신속한 진단을 통해 공격적 치료를 조기에 시행하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 저자들은 최초에 거대 세포종으로 진단되었다가 재발 후 골육종으로 악성 전환된 증례를 경험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

The purpose are to demonstrate the pain, stiffness, and physical function by the Korean Western Ontario MacMaster University(KWOMAC) score of the patients with varus deformity osteoarthritis of the knee after treatment period. Twenty outpatients with knee osteoarthritis(OA) were randomized and divided into the control(n=10) and wedge(n=10) groups. The remission scores of the KWOMAC index of severity for knee OA were compared between the groups. The result of repeated two-way ANOVA's revealed that a contact lateral-wedged insole with strapping produced significantly differences in the pain and physical function score between groups after treatment period(P<0.05), but it was not significant differences in the stiffness score between groups(P>0.05). These results suggest that the pain relief and improvement in function reported by patients with osteoarthritis while using lateral-wedged insole with strapping may be achieved by a reduction in external varus moment and medial compartment load.
