소아 요로감염이 있을시 방광요관역류가 흔히 관찰되며 만성 신우 신염과 방광요관역류와 깊은 관계가 있는 것이 알려져 있다. 발열을 동반하는 소아 요로감염시 D MSA 신주사에서 급성 신우신염의 뚜렷한 소견이 있더라도 방광요관역류가 발견되지 않는 경우가 더 많다. 하지만 신장에 신 반흔이 있을 경우에는 흔히 방광요관역류가 관찰 된다. 소아 요로감염의 처치는 신 반흔의 형성을 막는데 그 궁극적 목적이 있다 하겠다. 신생아시기 심한 방광요관역류에서 요로감염이 없이 신 이형성증으로 인한 신 반흔이 관찰되기도 한다.

Purpose : Development of renal scarring is associated with delayed diagnosis and treatment of urinary tract infection(UTI). This study was performed to clarify how soon treatment should be started to Inhibit renal scarring after onset of UTI and the factors associated with renal scarring in children with a first episode of febrile UTI. Methods : We retrospectively reviewed 163 patients with a first episode of febrile UTI under the age of 2 years from April 2000 to Ap,il 2004. All patients had a DMSA renal scan and voiding cystourethrogram done in the diagnostic period, 6 months after which a follow-up renal scan was done. After patients wet-e divided into 2 groups according to the duration of fever prior to start of treatment, the duration of fever after start of treatment, and total duration of fever, initial and follow-up DMSA scan findings were analyzed among the different groups. We compared the factors associated with renal scars between the groups with and without renal scars. Results : The initial DMSA renal scan identified abnormal finding in 23% of the patients who were treated $\leq$24 hr from the onset of disease and in 43% of those with fever more than 24 hr. Renal scars developed in 33% of patients who were treated $\leq$24 hr and 38% of those with fever >24 hr prior to treatment. Renal scars developed in 34% of patients with remission of fever $\leq$48 hr after treatment and ill 50% of those with fever >48 hr after treatment. The risk for renal scars was significantly higher in children who had total duration of feyer >72 hr(67%) than in those with shorter duration(19%). In children with renal scars, VUR was most highly associated with an increased risk of renal scar formation. Conclusion : Although children with a first episode of febrile UTI are treated within 24 hr after onset of the fever, renal damage cannot be prevented completely and it is mainly associated with VUR.

Purpose : To analyze changes of the anterior translation, MRI findings and associated injuries at scarring of the torn ACL in the chronic ACL rupture. Materials & Method : From Dec. 1996 to May 2000, 19 patients who were diagnosed as the chronic ACL rupture were studied. We analyzed KT-2000 side to side difference of maximal manual anterior displacement(MMAD), MRI findings and associated injuries. Results : There was statistically significant difference in the average MMAD between the 7 cases$(37\%)$ with scar formation$(2.78{\pm}2.41mm)$ and the 12 cases without scarring$(5.75{\pm}2.52mm)$. The chronic ACL rupture without scarring had more meniscal injuries$(67\%)$ than with scarring$(28\%)$. MRI showed that relatively straight bands toward expected insertion site with single large fragment(5 cases) and continuous band with focal angulation(2 cases). Conclusion : If relatively straight bands toward expected insertion site with single large fragment or continuous band with focal angulation on MR imaging is showed in the patient without significant anterior translation at arthrometer, the possibility of the scar formation of the torn ACL should be considered. We think that the chronic ACL rupture with scarring had less meniscal injuries than without scarring will give additional information on the natural history of ACL injuries.

Recently several growth factors such as $TGF-{\beta}1$, $TGF-{\beta}1$, PDGF, bFGF are known to play an important role in scar formation following adult tissue injury. But there is little known about the role of growth factors in fetal tissue healing without scar formation. Therefore the purpose of this study is to investigate the distribution of growth factors which we involved with scar formation in the artificially created cleft lip wound healing of fetuses. The author had undergone hysterotomy and created cleft lip-like defects on fetuses of New Zealand White Rabbit in mid-third trimester (24 days). Fetuses were divided into 3 groups (the repaired group, the unrepaired group and the sham-operated control group). At 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 days after procedure, the repaired, the unrepaired and the control groups were obtained by Caeserean section. After documenting the viability of fetuses, fetuses were photographed to compare size and facial morphology and sectioned for histological examination by H & E stain and spatial and temporal deposition of $TGF-{\beta}1$, $TGF-{\beta}2$, PDGF, bFGF by immunohistochemical method. The findings are summarized as follows 1. There were lack of inflammation and scar formation and neovascularity in the repaired and the unrepaired group during experimental periods. 2. The reepithelialization of the unrepaired group was slower than that of repaired group. 3. There were no differences of distribution of bFGF in the control, the repaired and the unrepaired group. 4. PDGF was increased at post-op. first and second day and decreased after post-op. third day. Eventually, there were no differences in the control, the repaired and the unrepaired group. 5. $TGF-{\beta}1$ and $TGF-{\beta}2$ were slightly increased at post-op. first and second day and decreased after post-op. third day. Eventually there were no differences in the control, the repaired and the unrepaired group. And $TGF-{\beta}2$ is more densely stained than $TGF-{\beta}1$.

Actinomycosis is an indolent, suppurative infection caused by an anaerobic gram-positive organism(usually actinomyces israelii) which usually causes infection in the face, mediastitum, lung, and abdomen. Primary esophageal actinomycosis which is not related with pulmonary or mediastinal actinomycosis, is very rare, especially in immunocompetent host. A 58-year-old woman has been suffered from dysphagia, odynophagia, and chest pain after insertion of esophageal stent in esophageal acid stricture. She underwent a esophagectomy with esophagogastrostomy for above mentioned symptoms. Pathologic diagnosis was a esophageal actinomycosis.

Epicanthoplasty was performed in 98 patients with the epicanthal fold. Epicanthal fold was classified into three categories-minimal degree, moderate degree, severe degree-according to its severity. In accurate anatomic dissection in medial canthal area, the pathologic mechanism of the formation of the epicanthal fold, I think, are not only the redundancy of skin, but also the early downward insertion of the preseptal and pretarsal portion of orbicularis oculi muscle. A new surgical technique is described for the correction of the epicanthal fold. The procedure is simple to perform and uniformly gives good results.

Various muscular flaps are used in oral and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery for the defects caused by tumor resection and trauma or for the correction of head and neck deformities. The sternocleidomastoid(SCM) muscle may be widely used as a muscular or myocutaneous flap in these lesion. The authors used SCM muscular flap for the expected parotid defect following benign tumor related conservative parotidectomy in three cases. We expected that prevention of post-operative facial deformity, reduction of dead-space and protection of denuded facial nerve etc. is lead by SCM muscular flap. But the total SCM flap can lead to some complications such as "flat neck deformity", limitation of neck movement and overcontouring of parotid defect. Therefore, the authors used split pedicled SCM muscular flap and it lead good favorable results of post-operative functional and esthetic problems.

Purpose : To evaluate the types of the fibrous scar formation around graft after ACL reconstruction. Materials and Methods : Between Nov 1997 and Jun. 1999, the second look arthroscopy was performed on 15 knees of 14 patients. We evaluated the changes around graft and measured the tunnel position that the tibial tunnel position as a percentage along the length of the tibial plateau from the anterior-to-posterior as seen on a lateral radiograph and the femoral tunnel position as a percentage along Blumensaat's line from anterior-to-posterior as seen on a lateral radiograph. Results : The tibial tunnel position was from $27\%\;to\;58\%(mean\;41\%)$ and the femoral tunnel position was from $58\%\;to\;83\%(mean\;76\%)$, so the tunnel position was ideal in almost cases. By arthroscopic findings, the grafts were not impinged in all cases and tile fibrous scar was formed between intercondylar notch and graft in almost cases except 3 cases. The types of fibrous scar formation were 6 cases of fibrillated fiber and 5 cases of fibrous nodule and 1 case of fibrous band. Conclusion : There was no impingement on graft in all cases and various types of fibrous scars were formed around grafts.

Maxillofacial deformities are not considered to be a trouble in social life but function. So many maxillofacial plastc surgeons has made efforts to overcome these troubles and bring out more positive life. The proper proportion and shape decide esthetic quality. Lower third of face was consist with lip, cheek, mandibular lower border and mandibular angle. Widening lower third of face give a impression with muscular and recklessness. And lower and wide mandibular angle makes face square shape. Unilateral involvement cause asymmestric face. These face is considered unfavorable, especially in Korea or Japan. We prevent a number of with mandibular angle Bulging which was corrected with mandibular osteotomy or masseter myotomy.
