Objectives This study is on the quantifying method for the acupuncture-moxa cautery heat response index, which are based on the some definitions. Methods The magnitude of the acupuncture-moxa cautery is defined by the pain-feeling of the acupuncture-moxa cautery stimulation: the stimulation magnitude of the acupuncture is 1, that of the direct moxa-cautery is 2, and that of the indirect moxa-cautery is 0.5. The heat variation of the acupuncture-moxa cautery stimulation is defined by the heat variations of the characteristic points pre/post-stimulations in the stenosis of the lumber. The acupuncture-moxa cautery heat response index is defined by the ratio of between the magnitude of the heat variation and the natural logarithmic magnitude of the stimulation. Results With the respect of the acupuncture-moxa cautery heat response index, I experimented and estimated 4 types of stimulations in the stenosis of the lumber: the single acupuncture stimulation with 40%, the single direct moxa-cautery stimulation with 52%, the combinational acupuncture-moxa cautery stimulations with 27%, and the combinational acupuncture-indirect electronic moxa-cautery stimulations with 53%. Conclusions According to the acupuncture-moxa cautery heat response index. the combinational acupuncture-moxa cautery stimulations especially need to be changed to the combinational acupuncture-indirect electronic moxa-cautery stimulations.

During the 4 year period from 1982 through 1985, twelve patients have undergone operations for discrete subaortic stenosis with good short-term clinical result at Department of Thoracic and cardiovascular Surgery, S.N.U.H. According to the cineangiographic and operative findings, nine of the 12 patients were classified as Deutsch type I, the other 3 as type II, and eleven of the 12 had one or more associated anomalies of the cardiovascular system such as PDA[5], VSD[5], left SVC[2], MS[1], COA[1], supramitral membrane[1], DORY[1], right aortic arch[1], DCRV[1], and TOF[1] [one with Shone`s complex], and three of them had secondary cardiac disorders such as aortic regurgitation[3],mitral regurgitation[2], and tunnel shaped dynamic obstruction of left ventricular outflow tract[2]. We have performed membrane resection via oblique aortotomy with retraction of the aortic cusps in 7 cases and via VSD from right cardiac chamber in 5 cases with large VSD and have also performed the operations on the correctable associated anomalies. There was only one operative death in patient with associated TOF due to neurologic complication and no other postoperative difficulties except in one patient with transient heart block resolved spontaneously on postoperative 3rd day. To our knowledge, this article is the first report of operation for discrete subaortic stenosis in Korean literature.

We experienced surgical correction of 2 cases of discrete membranous subaortic stenosis. Case 1 was 19 years old male patient. His complaints were fatigue, exertional dyspnea, syncope and angina for 8 years. Ejection. systolic murmur was heard at the second right intercostal space and diastolic murmur was heard at the apex. A thrill was palpated over the second right intercostal space and area of the carotid artery. 2-D echo, cardiac cath and left ventriculogram revealed discrete membranous subaortic stenosis and VSD. Complete excision of discrete membrane without mymectomy was done. VSD was closed with dacron patch and aortic valve was replaced with St. Jude medical valve. Case 11 was 16 years old female whose complaints were exertional dyspnea and syncope. Ejection systolic murmur was heard at second right intercostal space, but diastolic murmur was not heard. A thrill was palpated over the second right intercostal space and the area of carotid artery. 2-D echo, cardiac cath and left ventriculogram revealed discrete membranous subaortic stenosis. Complete excision of fibrous tissue and myotomy were made and aortic valve was replaced with St. Jude medical valve. Operative finding was followed: both aortic valves showed deformity of leaflets. Subaortic region had a thickened central fibrous body from which the ridge protruded. Both patient`s postoperative course were uneventful and short-term follow-up results were good except soft systolic murmur at the aortic area.

This study reports the effect of acupotomy for patients diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS). We treated three patients diagnosed with LSS using acupotomy. We measured the Numerical Rating Scale(NRS), Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) scores and Odom's criteria before and after treatment to assess improvements in symptoms and functions. In all patients, NRS, ODI scores and Odom's criteria were improved. We found a beneficial effect with acupotomy for three patients diagnosed with LSS. Thus, these data suggest LSS may be treated successfully with acupotomy.

식도이물은 이비인후과 영역에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 질환으로서 국내외를 막론하고 수많은 보고가 있으며 특히 유소아에 있어서 가장 많은 이물로는 주화라는 사실도 대부분의 보고자와 일치하는 것은 자타가 공인하는 사실이라고 하겠다. 그런데 특별한 경우를 제외하고는 이 주화로 인하여 합병증을 일으키는 경우는 별로 많지 않으며 간혹 유아에서 호흡곤란을 초래하여 기도이물과 혼동하기 쉬운 경우가 있다. 저자들은 최근에 만 1세된 여아에서 유아에게서는 보기드문 생선뼈가 식도 제1 협착부에 5일간 개재되어 있으면서 연하곤란, 흡기성 호흡곤란 및 발열을 주소로 래원 하였으나 엑스선검사로 피하기종, 식도주위농양, 종격동기종, 종격동염 및 폐확장부전증의 병발이 확인되어 불행한 결과를 초래한 보기드문 1례를 경험하였기에 문헌적 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

A total of 55 patients underwent surgical managements for postintubation tracheal stenosis from July 1975 through March 1997. All but 8 had received ventilatory assistance. The patients had S cuff lesions, 17 stoma lesions, 7 at both levels, 5 at subglottic lesions. Thirty two patients underwent the sleeve tracheal resection and end-to-end anastomosis. Five patients performed a wedge resection and end-to-end anastomosis. Twenty two patients received the Montgomery T-tube for relief of airway obstruction. Simple excision of granulation tissue was done in 7 patients. Rethi procedures(anterior division of cricoid cartilage, partial wedge resection of lower thyroid cartilage and T-tube molding) were performed in 2 subglottic stenosis patients. And the other subglottic patient was received permanent tracheal fenestration at 1975. The tracheoesophageal fistula patient was done sleeve tracheal resection and end-to-end anastomosis with interrupted double layer closure of esophageal fistula site. Cervical approach was used in 49 cases, cervicomediastinal in 13 cases and median stemotomy In 6 cases. Techniques for obtaining tension-free anastomosis included a cervical neck flexion(15-30$^{\circ}$) in all sleeve resection patients and laryngeal release in one. The length of resection was 1.5 to 5.0 on A total of 41 patients(74.5%) had good(24 patients) or satisfactory(17 patients) results. But in ten cases, the restenosis of anastomosis site which is the most common complication was developed Two of them underwent a second reconstruction and 8 patients required T-tube insertion for airway maintenance. Three patients(5.4%) died. The causes of death were tracheo-innominate artery fistula(2) and sudden obstruction of airway(1).

Objectives : To evaluate the evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of Chuna manual therapy(CMT) for lumbar spinal stenosis Methods : We searched 10 electronic databases(Pubmed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CAJ, RISS, KISS, KISTI, KMBASE, DBpia, NDSL) and related 2 journals up to October 2018. We included randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of testing CMT for lumbar spinal stenosis patients. The methodological quality of RCTs related assessed by the Cochrane risk of bias tool 1.0. Results : Three RCTs were eligible in our inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis of 3 studies showed positive results for the using CMT for lumbar spinal stenosis. Conclusions : The review found favorable evidence of CMT for treating lumbar spinal stenosis with meta-analysis. However, our systematic review has limited evidence to support CMT for lumbar spinal stenosis because of low quality of original articles and further well-designed RCTs should be encouraged.
