The purpose of this study was to investigate kinetic variables of the lower extremity during walking on three different stair widths in healthy adults. Ten healthy college-aged adults($23.5{\pm}3.5$) recruited for this study. Each stairs with the same height and length(l8cm and 90cm) under the Korean Constructional Law but three different widths(26cm, 31cm and 36cm) were conducted for this study. One force plate(9286AA, Kistler Co.) was put on third stairs. One-way ANOVA was performed to find the stair width effects during stair walking and the following findings ware obtained. There was significantly decreased in ankle resultant joint moment at Pull-Up phase(p<.05) and, significantly increased in knee extension moment during mid-stance phase as stair width increase(p<.05), but there was no significance in ankle resultant joint moment was found at Forward Continuance Phase in Ascending Stair Walking and There was significantly increased in ankle resultant joint moment as stair width increase during mid-stance phase(p<.05) and no significance in knee and hip resultant moments among the stair width in descending stair walking.

Purpose: To report modified technique of inside-out suture in repair of tear of postero medial corner of medial meniscus. Operative technique: Arthroscope is placed through anterolateral portal. Suture hook is delivered through anteromedial portal. By rotating the suture hook, it penetrates the inner portion of the torn meniscus from femoral surface to tibial surface of the meniscus for vertically oriented suture. A PDS suture is delivered through the lumen of suture hook, and the suture hook is withdrawn. The both ends of the suture are retrieved through anteromedial portal by a retriever, either grasper or crochet hook.A Zone-specific cannula is positioned below the inferior surface of the meniscus through anterolateral portal. The Looped Needle designed by the authors is delivered through the lumen of the Zone-specific cannula. The suture end of the tibial surface is placed in the loop of the Looped Needle and pulled out to the surface of posteromedial joint line. The suture end of the femoral surface is pulled out in same manner. A transverse skin incision of 1cm size is made adjacent to pulled out suture and the suture is tied. Discussion: Even though modified inside-out suture technique requires longer operation time than conventional inside-out technique, it provides vertically oriented suture and good tissue coaptation. The authors recommend this modified inside-out suture technique to be good alternative in repairing tear of the posteromedial corner of medial meniscus.

Unilateral ureteronephrectomy was performed in a dog presented with unilateral hydroureter and hydronephrosis. On laparotomy, severe adhesion of the dorsomedial border of the affected kidney to the abdominal aorta longitudinally and caudal pole of the kidney firmly to the ipsilateral ovary were observed. Since it was not possible to ligate the renal artery and vein separately due to severe adhesion tissue, two mass ligations were applied in the medial border of kidney, and the adhesion tissue was transected distal to each ligature. Then, blunt and sharp dissections were performed to isolate dorsomedial border of the kidney from the abdominal aorta, but they brought out unexpected hemorrhage caused by incision of renal artery and it has been suspected that two mass ligations could not include renal artery, which was adhered to dorsomedial border of the kidney. The hemorrhage was controlled by double ligations and electrocautery. In this case report, we recommend that if isolation of renal vessels is impossible due to strict adhesion of kidney to adjacent tissue, the mass ligation could be chosen to isolate and exteriorize the kidney and placed carefully not only at medial border of the kidney, where the renal vessels come into the kidney anatomically but also additional border of the kidney where adhesion tissues are formed.

Purpose: On the hypothesis that the acromion morphology is changed according to the its site, we identified the morphology of the acromion on the oblique slices of MRI and we investigated the association of the acromial shape with the clinical stages of rotator cuff disorder on the magnetic resonance (MR) images. In addition, we compared the acromion morphology on MRI and simple X-rays. Material and Methods: The MR images of seventy one patients with rotator cuff disorder and who underwent arthroscopic surgery were compared with that of a control group of sixteen patients who didn't have rotator cuff disorder on MRI. On three subsequent oblique sagittal slices from the lateral edge of the acromion (S1, S2 and S3), each acromion morphology on the MRI slices was classified according to Epstein et al: flat, curved or hooked. We investigated the changing parttern of the acromion shape and we compared the acromion shape on MRI and that on simple X-rays. We classified the rotator cuff tear by the severity: bursitis, partial thickness tear or full thickness tear. We investigated which acromial type on the MRI oblique slice was associated with the severity of rotator cuff disease. Results: Changes of the acromial shape occurred in 54 patients (76.1%). The most frequent pattern was that the types are same on S1 and S2 and different on S3 (22 cases, 31.0%). The acromial type on S1 and S2 was significantly associated with the severity of rotator cuff disorder (p=0.001 and 0.022), respectively. There was no reliability of the acromial shape on MRI and roentgenography (p>0.05) Conclusion: The type of acromion changed from lateral to medial. Among the three positions, the shape of the acromion on S1 and S2 had meaningful correlation with the clinical stage of rotator cuff disorder. There was no statistical correlation of the acromial shape between MRI and simple X-ray.

Thermography는 신체 체표면에서 발생되는 온도를 정량화하는 다양한 방법에 대한 일반적인 표현이다. Electrothermography는 의학분야에서 사용이 증가되고 있는 술식이다. 인체를 포함한 모든 물체는 적외선을 방출한다. 그래서, Wien의 법칙에 따르면, 방출되는 최대에너지에서의 주파수는 체온에 의존한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 따라서, 피부 표면에서 방출되는 적외선을 측정하는 것에 의해 온도가 측정될 수 있다. 최근에는, electrothermography가 만성 구강안면동통 환자의 진단에 있어서 새로운 진단 기기로서 각광을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 측두하악관절장애의 증상이 있는 교근, 측두근, 그리고 측두하악관절의 발통점의 피부 온도와 증상이 없는 대측의 피부 온도를 디지틀 적외선 체열 촬영으로 비교하고자 하였다. 측두하악관절장애를 주소로 하고 편측성의 구강안면동통을 호소하는 21명의 내원환자를 선택하였다. 디지틀적외선 체열촬영은 DTI-16-DOREX21(Dorex Inc., U.S.A) 기기를 사용하였다. 발통점 피부에 marker를 부착하고, 좌측과 우측의 color thermogram을 $0.1^{\circ}C$ 해상도로 측정하였다. 본 실험에서 측정한 발통점은 masseter inferior, masseter anterior, temporalis anterior 그리고 TMJ이었다. 증상이 있는 부위와 증상이 없는 대측의 피부온도 차이를 알아보기 위해 paired t-test를 사용하였으며, 실험 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 급성 근육장애 환자에 있어서는 증상이 있는 부위와 증상이 없는 대측과의 피부온도 차이가 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.0075). 2. 만성 근육장애 환자에 있어서는 증상이 있는 부위와 증상이 없는 대측과의 피부온도 차이가 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 볼 수 없었다. 3. 측두하악관절 내장증 환자에 있어서는 증상이 있는 부위와 증상이 없는 대측과의 피부온도 차이가 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 볼 수 없었다. 결론적으로 적외선 체열촬영은 급성저작근장애의 진단에 있어서 유용한 진단방법의 한가지로 사료되며, 앞으로 임상적으로 더욱더 심화된 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose : We analyzed clinical and radiological results of the treatment of osteochondritis dissecans in the femoral condyle under arthroscopic guidance. Materials and Methods : The study group consists 19 cases in 17 patients. Average follow up period was 34 months and average age was 16 years. The cases were classified by 4 different groups, using the fellowing system: Group 1-stable lesion and no specific treatment after arthroscopic examination; Group 2-early separation and multiple drilling; Croup 3-unstable lesion and Herbert screw fixation; Croup 4-loose body removal and/or crater curettage. The results were analyzed by the criteria of Hughston which including clinical and radiologic outcomes. Results : There were 14 cases$(74\%)$ of good and excellent results in 19 knees in which, $75\%$(3/4) in Group 1, $75\%$(3/4) in Group 2, $86\%$(7/8) in Group 3 and $33\%$(1/3) in Group 4. The result of Herbert screw fixation group was better than that of other groups with statistically significant differences. Conclusion : In the treatment of osteochondritis dissecans of skekletally immature patients, arthroscopic finding was reliable guidance in decision of treatment method and active fixation was recommended in patients with large, unstable lesion.

Total knee arthroplasty has become a standard procedure for advanced knee arthritis to relieve pain and improve function. Computer-assisted navigation systems have been used in total knee arthroplasty to improve the mechanical axis of the limb as well as the alignment and position of the components. A computer-assisted navigation system has the advantage of real-time feedback during surgery, such as mediolateral balance in extension and flexion gap, alignment of the lower limb, and components. On the other hand, the computer-assisted navigation system requires an additional stab wound for tracker fixation, which can increase the likelihood of superficial wound infection and stress fractures and increase the operation time and cost of surgery. The clinical efficacy of computer-assisted navigation in total knee arthroplasty is also controversial. Compared to the conventional technique, computer navigation improves the accuracy of the postoperative mechanical axis within outliers of $3^{\circ}$ varus or $3^{\circ}$ valgus. This paper reviews the surgical technique, pitfalls, clinical and radiological outcomes, useful clinical cases, and future perspectives in computer-assisted navigation total knee arthroplasty.

For the treatment of a bony Bankart lesion accompanied by an acute traumatic shoulder dislocation, anatomical reduction and stable fixation of the bone fragment and glenohumeral ligament are essential to avoid chronic instability or degenerative changes. If the Bankart lesion has large bony pieces or comminuted fragments, it can be difficult to perform precise and secure fixation of the big intraarticular fragment to the fracture site because of the limited visualization of the arthroscopic procedure. In addition, in the case of the open procedure, it requires an extensive surgical dissection to access the fractured fragment, which may cause surgical approach-related morbidity, such as neurovascular complications, delayed subscapularis healing, and increased risk of stiffness. This paper describes an alternative open suture anchor technique for a large bony Bankart lesion, which was secured anatomically with squared knots after a shuttle relay through bony tunnels and adjacent soft tissue and labrum. This technique can achieve anatomical and firm fixation under direct vision, and reduce the number of surgery related morbidities.

Purpose: We wanted to report the clinical characteristics and arthroscopic findings of radial tear in medial meniscus posterior horn insertion, commonly occurs in patient over middle age with documentary review. Materials and Methods: Retrograde study using hospital records was done to 40 cases in 40 patients who visited our hospital and had been performed knee arthroscopic surgery due to medial meniscus posterior horn insertion tear between January, 2005 to April, 2007. Seven cases were male and 33 cases were female with the mean age of 61 (range, 47-80). Trauma history, stage of arthritis, period between pain and operation, MRI findings, clinical symptoms and operation methods were evaluated. Results : Six cases had trauma history while 34 cases didn't. In simple x-ray, using Kellgren-Lawrence classification, 31 cases were between stage 0 and II while 9 cases were stage III. In arthroscopic exam, there were 17 cases of Outerbridge grade IV, 4 cases of grade III, 9 cases of grade II, 9 cases of grade I. The mean duration of pain was 5.3 months. In MRI, at least one finding of cleft in axial or coronal view or ghost sign in sagittal view was found in all cases. The shape of meniscus tears were blunt in 18 cases, transverse in 12 and degenerative tear in 10. Subtotal meniscectomy was performed in 16 cases, partial meniscectomy in 10 cases and meniscal repair in 14 cases. Conclusion : Medial meniscus posterior horn insertion tear occurs in patients over middle age is rarely related to trauma history but causes painful mechanical symptom and usually accompany arthritis. Meniscectomy can be done for the treatment but repair can be considered is some cases. Further study on the treatment result will be needed.
