Autogenous bone grafting has a broad range of applications and implications, and also limitations, though it is the oldest and most important reconstructive techniques in the oral and maxillofacial surgical field.Further understanding of bone healing mechanisms, bone physiology and bone biology, transplantation immunology, and development of tissue banking procedures had enabled oral and maxillofacial surgeons to reconstruct even the most difficult bony defects successfully with the preserved allogeneic bone implant. Now autogenous bone and allogeneic bone implants present a wide variety of surgical options to surgeons, whether used separately or in combination. The surgeons are able to make judicious and fruitful choices, only with a through knowledge of the above-mentioned biologic principles and skillful techniques. The author evaluated 116 cases where allogeneic bones were transplanted for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction.

내인성 산화질소는 산화질소 합성효소에 의하여 합성되며 여러 분비선에서 다양한 기능을 하리라 추측되고 있다. 구강주위 외분비선은 형태적으로 유사하나 분비물의 성분과 분비량은 서로 달라 이들 조직에서 산화질소 동위효소의 분포와 기능을 추론함은 흥미 있는 일이다. 또한 구강주위 외분비선과 분비선의 지배신경의 산화질소동위효소의 분포에 관한 보고는 희박하다. 본 연구는 흰쥐구강 주위 외분비조직, 즉 3대 타액선, 혀의 소타액선, 누선 그리고 구강점막의 피지선과 지배신경 및 신경절에서 eNOS와 nNOS의 분포를 면역조직화학 방법에 의하여 관찰하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. nNOS는 악하선신경절, 대타액선의 분비도관 주위의 신경절후신경섬유, 혀의 소타액선 주위의 신경절후섬유, 누선에서 강한 양성반응을 보였다. nNOS는 대타액선과 근상피세포에서 중등도의 양성반응을 보였고 이중 이하선에서 반응이 가장 약하였으며, 피지선의 분비관에서 약한 반응을 보였다. 그러나 상교감신경절과 삼차신경절, 소타액선의 분비관 및 대,소 타액선의 선포에서는 반응이 매우 미약하거나 관찰되지 않았다. eNOS는 혈관의 내피세포와 대타액선의 분비관, 누선의 분비관 및 선포에서 강한 양성 반응을 보였고, 근상피세포에서 중등도의 반응을, 피지선에서 약한 반응을 보였다. 모든 신경절과 신경섬유에서 eNOS의 반응은 음성이었고 타액선의 일부 선포에서는 미약한 면역반응을 보였다. 이상의 결과 eNOS에 의해 합성된 NO는 악안면영역의 외분비선에서 혈류량의 조절과 분비도관의 기능 조절에 관여하고, nNOS에 의한 NO는 외분비선의 자율신경계에서 신경전달물질로의 기능과 분비도관에서의 분비기능 조절에 관여함을 시사하였다.

This is a report of three cancer patients treated with the different methods of neck dissection considering the state of the each patient. 1. A 76-year old femals patient who showed $T2_N0_M0$ squamous cell carcinoma received the regional neck dissection with resection of primary lesion. The postoperative result was uneventful without recurrence for 3.6 years. 2. A 52-year old male patient who was diagosed $_T3_N1_M0$ squamous cell carcinoma was treated with the bilateral neck dissection and radical resection of primary lesion. Metastasis was noticed on the right scapular area 8 months postoperatively. We treated him with radiation and chemotherapy, but he died 13 months postoperatively. 3. A 55-year old male patient who showed $_T2_N1_M0$ squamous cell cvarcinoma was treated with the classical neck dissection and the radical resection of primary lesion. The postoperative result was good with no recurrence for 4 years.

A 31 years old female had been suffered from a bony swelling in right premolar region of the mandible for 12 years, recently grown rapidly. A fistula tract developed on the right anterior mandibular border, but the lesion was relatively asymptomatic. In the radiological examination, the tumor mass was irregularly mixed with radiolucent and radiopaque areas, forming multiple cystic spaces. Under the diagnosis of calcifying odontogenic cyst, the mandibular mass was resected and examined pathologically. After decalcification, the dissected tumor mass showed multiple small cystic spaces and calcifying fibrous tissue, mimicking calcifying odontogenic cyst or ameloblastoma. Histological observation showed many calcifying cementoid materials and ossifying trabeculae. The cystic spaces were turned out to be dilated vascular channels lined by endothelial cells, containing plasma fluid. However, the main lesion was diagnosed as cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF), and the atypical vascular channels were greatly dilated and gradually expanded the whole tumor mass. The present COF was examined through immunohistochemical (IHC) array, and investigated for tumor cell characteristics, exhibiting abnormal ossification and aneurysmal cystic changes. IHC array disclosed that the tumor cells grew progressively in the lack of apoptosis, and that they showed lower expression of RUNX2 than BMP-2, RANKL, and OPG, and increases of protein expression in $HIF-1{\alpha}$, VEGF-A, and CMG2. These data suggested that the reduced expression of RUNX2, osteoblast differentiation factor, be relevant to abnormal ossification of COF, and that the consistent expressions of angiogenesis factors be relevant to de novo angiogenesis in COF, subsequently resulted in aneurysmal cystic changes.

Solitary plasmacytoma is a rare malignant neoplasm that originate in immunoglobulin-producing plasma cell. Solitary bone plasmacytoma can be found at any site throughout the skeleton and in most cases eventually progresses to multiple myeloma, of which it is thought to be an unusual presentation. On the other hand, extramedullary plasmacytoma has a tendency to occur in the head and neck region, mainly in association with the upper air passages. Incisional biopsy is the primary approach to make a definitive diagnosis, and immunohistochemical staining can be very helpful in understanding the nature of these tumors. We report a 66 years old patient with solitary bone plasmacytoma and a 36 years old patient with solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma with literatures review.

The fibrin sealant was first designed as an alternative to surgical suture for the purpose of surface-to-surface union especially in parenchymal organs like the liver, spleen and kidney. The clinical application of currently used fibrin sealant was first introduced in 1972. The fibrin sealant consists of principal two components; lyophilized human fibrinogen and bovine thrombin. The fibrinogen component also contains coagulation factor XIII. A solution of aprotinin, an inhibitor of fibrinolysis is used to dissolve the fibrinogen and to provide the first component, and a solution of calcium chloride is also used to provide the second component. From July to December in 1990, during 6 months, we used fibrin sealant in the 28 patients of 33 various cases, in the following ways; supportive application of fibrin sealant after free autogenouse nerve graft for the repair of inferior alveolar nerve, facial nerve or accessory nerve, treament of hemangioma or lymphangioma to thrombosize and lead to the tumor shrinking, skin grafting to stimulate the adhesion and tissue repair, bone grafting in the patients of cleft alveolus, mandibular reconstruction or orthognathic surgery to facilitate the knitting of bone chips, tissue adhesion after tumor resection, radical neck dissection or flap reconstructions, and supportive adhesion of external auditory cannal after TMJ surgery via postauricular approach. No adverse effects were observed, none of the patients developed hepatitis or other blood transmitted disease, and the wound healing were acceptable.

This study was intended to evaluate a post-operative relapse tendency in mandibular prognathism patients with open-bite. 18 patients with or without open-bite have undergone sagittal split ramus osteotomy and were investigated radiologically with cephalogram. The results were as following 1. The preoperative anterior facial height, mandibular plane angle and mandibular gonial angle were larger in open-bite patients than in nonopen-bite patients.(p>0.05) 2. There was significant correlation between surgical change of SNA, mandibular plane length and long-term relapse.(p<0.01). 3. There was relatively stable postoperative anterior facial height in open bite patients. 4. There was no significant correlation between the surgical change of mandibular plane angle, amount of mandibular setback and long-term relapse.(p>0.01) 5. This study showed that horizontal relapse was more significant than vertical relapse.
