Background: Surgical correction of the full spectrum of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula has improved over the years, but the mortality and morbidity assoiated with repair of these anomalies still remains high. Material and Method: We retrospectively analyzes 27 surgically treated patients with esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula at Dong-A University Hospital between January 1992 and March 1997. Result: There were 21 male and 6 female patients. Mean birth weight was 2.62$\pm$.385 kg(2.0~3.4 kg). Twenty- four(88.9%) had esophageal atresia with distal tracheoesophageal fistula, and 3(11.1%) had pure esophageal atresia. Four(14.8%) infants were allocated to Waterston risk group A, 18(66.7%) to group B, and 5(18.5%) to group C. In eighteen(66.7%) infants with associated anomalies, cardiovascular anomalies were the most common. Three had a gap length of 3.5 cm or greater(ultra-long gap) between esophageal segments, 7 had 2.0 to 3.5 cm(long gap), 8 had 1.0 to 2.0 cm(medium gap), and 9 had 1 cm or less(short gap) gap length. Among 27 neonates, 3 cases underwent staged operation, late colon interposition was done in 2, and all other 24 cases underwent primary esophageal anastomosis. Oerative mortality was 2/27(7.4%). Causes of death included acute renal failure(n=1), empyema from anastomotic leak(n=1), necrotizing enterocolitis(n=1), sepsis(n=1), insulin-dependent diabetus mellitus(n=1 . There were 4 anastomosis- related complications including stricture in 3, leakage in 1. Mortality was related to the gap length(p<.05). Conclusion: Although the complication rate associated with surgical repair of these anomalies is high, this does not always implicate the operative mortality. The overall survival can be improved by effective treatment for combined anomalies and intensive postoperatve care.

Purpose: This study was planned to determine the characteristics of extremely obese patients during Bariatric surgery and to evaluate how the difference in the number of postsurgical personal nutritional educations they received affected the weight loss. Methods: This is a retrospective study on the basis of the medical records of extremely obese patients for 15 months after receiving gastric banding. A total of 60 people were selected as the study subjects and they were divided into the Less Educated Group and the More Educated Group according to the average number of personal nutritional educations they received. We investigated both groups to determine the general characteristic, health related lifestyle habits, obesity related complications and symptoms in possession, and eating habits before their surgery, the body composition measurement result, obesity determination indices at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 months before and after their surgery, and the biochemical parameters at 6 months before and after their surgery. Results: Body fat and weight showed rapid reduction until 6 months after the surgery, but thereafter reduced slowly depending on the result of body composition measurement. Regarding body fat and weight, the More Educated Group, who received nutrition education more often, showed significantly lower levels than the Less Educated Group at 15 months after surgery. Regarding BMI and degree of obesity, the More Educated Group showed significantly lower levels than the Less Educated Group at 15 months after surgery. Here, we were assured that BMI is reversely proportional to the number of personal nutritional educations at 15 months, which is more outstanding after surgery than before surgery. Conclusion: Long-term nutritional education is a key factor for the extremely obese patient in maintaining the effects of Bariatric surgery on weight and body fat reduction onwards. In the next stage, considering the characteristics of the study subjects, adoption of individual nutrition education is recommended for postsurgical prospective arbitration of obesity in order to monitor blood pressure, obesity related complications, symptoms in possession, and how eating habits and health related life habits change, and to judge the actual effect of the nutritional education method at the same time.

위기관지 누공은 매우 드문 질환으로 대부분의 경우 외상, 상부위장관 수술, 횡경막하 농양, 양성 위궤양, 신생물 등 이 원인으로 생각된다. 식도암의 Ivor Lewis 수술후 2년과 3년에 양성 위궤양으로 인해 발생한 재발성 위기관지 누공 1예를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

부비동에 발생하는 악성종양은 자각증상이 비교적 늦게 나타나 병변이 많이 진행된 후에 발견되는 경우가 대부분이다. 진행된 부비동압의 치료는 수술, 화학요법, 방사선요법의 병용치료법이 종래부터 시도되어왔으며 대부분의 경우 광범위한 수술적 절제가 필요하여 이에 따른 후유증이 크고 치료결과는 아직 많은 논란이 있다. 저자들은 진행된 부비동암 (T4)환자 10명에서 유도화학요법 (Cisplatin, 5-FU)후 수술 (상악절제술 4예, 두개안면 절제술 1예 )과 방사선 치료 (약 7000 cGy)를 받은 5명과 유도화학요법후 방사선치료만 받은 5명을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 수술을 포함한 병용요법을 받은 환자 6명중 3명은 평균추적기간 28개월 동안 재발의 증거가 없었으나 2명에서 국소재발이 있었고 이들은 국소 절제술 및 방사선치료후 현재 1년 이상 무병상태이다. 2. 수술을 포함한 병용요법을 받은 환자 5명중 4명에서 초진시 안와내 종양침윤의 소견이 있었으나 수술시 안와를 보존하였고 그 후 안와 부위의 국소 재발은 없었다. 3. 유도화학요법과 방사선치료만을 받은 5명 모두 6개월 이내에 국소재발하였다. 4. 진행된 악성 부비동암은 수술을 포함한 병용요법으로 좀 더 좋은 치료성적을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

배경: 식도암의 절제술에 있어 식도 위 문합술은 중대한 합병증, 즉 문합부 누출, 양성협착, 종양의 재발 등을 유발한다. 수술 후 재원기간동안 환자가 느끼는 주관적인 증상과 합병증이 식도와 위장관의 문합부 위치에 따라 달라질 수 있으므로 서로간에 비교분석할 필요가 있겠다. 대상 및 방법: 1995년 1월부터 1999년 5월까지 식도암 근치술로 식도 위 문합술을 시행 받은 55명의 환자를 대상으로 문합위치에 따라 경부문합한 23명의 환자와 흉부문합을 한 32명의 환자를 비교 분석하였다. 절제술 후 AJCC분류에 따라 I기 5명, II기 27명, III기 23명으로 판정되었으며, 종양이 상흉부에 위치한 경우 3명, 중흉부 34명, 하흉부 18명이었다. 조직학적으로 55명의 환자 2명의 선암을 제외하고 53명이 편평상피세포암이었다. 55명 전원이 남자였으며 평균연령은 경부문합의 경우 59세였고, 흉부문합은 55세였다. 경부 문합의 경우 1명의 staple봉합을 제외하고 나머지 22명이 수봉합을 하였으며, 흉부문합술의 경우는 9명이 수봉합, 23명이 staple봉합을 하였다. 결과: 수술 후 사망자는 경부문합 1명, 흉부문합 2명이었다. 경부 문합환자의 경우 23명 중 15명에서 호흡기, 소화기등의 합병증 46례가 발생하였고, 흉부 문합환자의 경우 32명중 13명에서 합병증 37례가 발생하였다. 경부문합환자는 중등도 혹은 심한 연하곤란을 나타내는 경우가 11명에서 있었으며, 흉부문합환자는 2명에서 나타났다. 또한 수술 후 20일 이후까지 재원한 경우는 경부문합환자 18명, 흉부문합환자는 13명이었다. 결론: 식도암에서 식도 위 문합술의 경우 호흡기, 소화기, 감염등의 합병증이 발생하였으며, 특히 호흡기 합병증에 의한 사망률이 높았다. 문합부 누출은 staple봉합보다 수봉합에서, 흉부문합보다 경부문합에서 빈도가 높았다. 경부문합의 경우 문합부 누출률이 높고, 연하곤란을 많이 호소하며 재원기간이 의미있게 길었다.

Dissection intramural hematoma of the esophagus (DIHO) is a rare, but well-documented condition that is part of the spectrum of, acute esophageal injuries; these include the more common Mallory-Weiss tear and Boerhaave's syndrome. This disorder is predominantly seen in women during their sixth or seventh decade and the disease has various etiologies, but the pathogenesis has yet to be clarified. The triad of symptoms for this disorder includes retrosternal pain, hematemesis and odynophagia. It is important to differentiate esophageal submucosal dissection form other disorders that have a similar appearance, such as Mallory-Weiss syndrome and esophageal perforation because the prognosis of DIHO is excellent with conservative therapy and these other diseases require surgical treatment. We report here on a case of a dissecting intramural hematoma of the esophagus that was preoperatively misdiagnosed as the submucosal tumor of the esophagus preoperatively, and it was confirmed by Video-assisted thoracic surgery.
