  • The tracheostomy directs external air into the airway tract. This process causes mucosal dryness, irritation and inflammation in the tracheo-bronchial tree. In order to prevent such problems, several methods are applied; ointment application, humidification and careful suction etc. The heat-moisture exchanger (HME) is commercially sold device that assists heating and humidification of the inhaled air. The authors experienced successful treatment outcome of intractable tracheitis caused by repetitive and vigorous intra-tracheal suction by applying HME in a total laryngectomized patient. We report an interesting and didactic case with a brief literature review.

  • 초기후두암에 있어서 보존적 술식의 장점은 후두 전적출술시와 같은 국소치료효과를 얻을 수 있으면서도 후두의 생리적 기능을 최대한 보존하는데 있다. 성공적인 후두부분절제술을 위해서는 후두내에서 종양의 발생위치 및 그 확산에 대한 연부조직들의 해부학적 역할에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 과거에는 초기후두암환자에서 정상적인 목소리를 보존할 수 있다는 이점 때문에 방사선 치료가 일차적 치료요법으로 많이 시행되어 왔다. Wang 과 Wong은 성대 막양부에 국한된 병변에서 방사선치료에 대한 5년간 조절율(5-year control rate)이 92%, 전연합부를 침범한 경우가 81%, 그리고 후방으로 전파된 경우 76%로 감소된다고 보고하였다. Olofsson 등은 전연합부를 침범한 57례의 환자에서 방사선 치료를 시행하여 85.7%의 5년 생존율을 얻었으나, 57례중 15례에서 재발하여 구제수술(salvage surgery)을 시행하였고, Jesse 등$^{13)}$ 은 전연합부를 침범한 91례의 T1, T2 성문암을 방사선 치료를 시행하여 8.8%의 실패율을 보였으나 22례의 환자에서 재발하여 후에 salvage surgery를 시행하였다. 그러나 Ogura 등은 피열 연골을 침범한 79례의 환자에서 보존적 수술을 시행한 결과 6례의 환자에서 재발하여 90%의 3-years control rate를 얻을 수 있었다고 보고하였다. 이처럼 병변이 전연합부, 피열연골 혹은 후방성문하부로의 침범이 있는 경우는 방사선 치료 효과가 떨어지고, 따라서 방사선 치료에 실패할 가능성이 보다 높기 때문에 비록 방사선 치료 후 실패한 경우에서 구제 수술을 시행할 수는 있지만 후두기능을 보존하려는 궁극적인 목표를 생각할 때 보존적 수술을 우선적으로 시행하는 것이 바람직하다고 할 수 있다. Biller 등은 방사선 요법에서 실패한 성문부 종양에서는 대부분 전적출술을 시행하지만 일부는 보존적 수술을 시행할 수 있다고 보고하였다. 이들은 반대측 성문부에 종양의 침범이 없어야 하고, 전연 합으로의 파급은 있어도 가능하며 성대돌기를 제외한 피열연골이 정상이어야 하고, 종양의 성문하부로의 파급이 5mm 이내라야 하며, 연골에 침범이 없어야 하고, 성대고정이 없어야 하며, 재발 병소가 방사선요법 전의 원발병소와 상관관계가 있어야 하며, 원발병소가 후두부분적출술에 합당할 경우 보존적 술식을 시행할 수 있다고 하였다. 최근에는 다양한 후두 재건술의 발달로 보다 진행된 후두암에 대한 보존적 후두절제술들이 소개되고 있다. 단측 T3,T4 후두암 혹은 경성문암, 이상와에 위치한 암의 경우 음성만을 재건하는 후두근적출술 (near total laryngectomy)을 시행하기도 한다. 본원 이비인후과에서 1986년부터 초기성문암 51례 중 24례(47.1%)와 초기성문상암 17례 중 12례 (70.6%)에 대하여 보존적 술식을 시행하였다. 초기 성문암의 보존적 술식을 시행한 24례중, 2례(8.3%)에서 경부재발, 1례(4.2%)에서 경부재발과 동반된 폐의 원격전이가 있었으나 원발부위의 재발은 관찰되지 않았고, 술후 합병증으로 1례(4.2%)에서 후두협착, 3례(12.5%)에서 수술부위의 육아종형성, 그리고 1례(4.2%)에서 기관지염이 발생하였으나 오연으로 인한 폐렴은 발생하지 않았다. 초기성문 상암의 보존적 술식을 시행한 12례 중 1례(8.3%)에서 원발병소의 재발, 2례(16.7%)에서 경부재발이 있었으며, 술후 합병증으로 3례(16.7%)에서 오연으로 인한 폐렴의 발생이 있었지만 다른 합병증은 발생하지 않았다. 초기성문암 24례 중 재발이 나타난 3례의 환자를 제외한 21례(97.5%)와 초기성문상암 12례 중 재발이 나타난 3례의 환자를 제외한 9례 (75%)에서는 현재까지 재발소견을 보이지 않고 있다. 이러한 결과는 다른 보고자들과 유사한 결과를 보이고 있지만 아직까지 증례가 많지 않기 때문에 생존율을 얻기에는 미흡한 점이 있으며, 향후 지속적인 추적관찰이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • The supraglottic subtotal laryngectomy represents a conservation laryngeal procedure in which the upper portion of the larynx is removed without sacrificing the normal functions of the remaining larynx. The basis for this procedure rests in the embryologic derivation and consequent anatomic compartmentalization of the larynx and its lymphatics, which limit tumor spread. This procedure is performed for carcinoma involving the epiglottis and false cords, and can be extended to include carcinomas of the aryepiglottic fold and the anterior and lateral walls of the pyriform sinus and selected lesions involving the vallecula and base of the tongue. Recently the authors has experienced 4 cases of supraglottic cancer, which were performed supraglottic subtotal laryngectomy. One of which was died because of local recurrence, and the remaining cases were successful with satisfactory rehabilitation without local recurrence and impairment of voice and swallowing.

  • Treatment of cerebellar medulloblastoma has been much improved with modern surgical technique for gross total tumor removal and adequate radiation therapy for the whole craniospinal axis. Questions have been arosen about the optimal radiation dose for the preventive treatment of whole cranium and whole spinal axis. Recently, many authors have reported their treatment results as comparable to older data, using lower than conventional dose of 3,600 cGy-4,000 cGy. For 50 patients treated between 1981 and 1990 at the Department of Radiation Therapy of SNUH, retrospective analysis was done for the treatment result, especially the neuraxis control, by radiation dose for the presymptomatic area of the disease. Analysis only by total spinal dose did not give any significant difference. But further analysis by following patient group; 3,600 cGy/150 cGy (n=6), 3,000 cGy/150 cGy (n=10), 2,400 cGy/150 cGy (n=17) and 2,400 cGy/100-120 cGy (n=11) showed significant improvement of neuraxis control by decreasing order (p =0.003). There was no significant difference in overall survival between the groups. For the 19 patients who had been confirmed initially as having no neuraxis disease, TDF 30 was the cur-off value that could prevent neuraxis failure (p =0.004). We couldn't define any TDF value that give reasonable control for the patient group with positive CSF study at initial diagnosis.

  • Purpose : A retrospective study was undertaken to determine the role of conventional radiotherapy with or without surgery for treating a supraglottic carcinoma in terms of the local control and survival. Materials and Methods : From Jan. 1986 to Oct. 1996, a total of 134 patients were treated for a supraglottic carcinoma by radiotherapy with or without surgery. Of them, 117 patients who had completed the radiotherapy formed the base of this study. The patients were redistributed according to the revised AJCC staging system (1997). The number of patients of stage I, II, III, IVA, IVB were $6\;(5\%),\;16\;(14\%),\;53\;(45\%),\;32\;(27\%),\;10\;(9\%)$, respectively. Eighty patients were treated by radical radiotherapy in the range of $61.2\~79.2\;Gy$ (mean : 69.2 Gy) to the primary tumor and $45.0\~93.6\;Gy$ (mean : 54.0 Gy) to regional lymphatics. All patients with stage I and IVB were treated by radiotherapy alone. Thirty-seven patients underwent surgery plus postoperative radiotherapy in the range of $45.0\~68.4\;Gy$ (mean : 56.1 Gy) to the primary tumor bed and $45.0\~59.4\;Gy$ (mean : 47.2 Gy) to the regional lymphatics. Of them, 33 patients received a total laryngectomy (${\pm}lymph$ node dissection), three had a supraglottic horizontal laryngectomy (${\pm}lymph$ node dissection), and one had a primary excision alone. Results : The 5-year survival rate (5YSR) of all patients was $43\%$. The 5YSRs of the patients with stage I+II, III+IV were $49.9\%,\;41.2\%$, respectively (p=0.27). However, the disease-specific survival rate of the patients with stage I (n=6) was $100\%$. The 5YSRs of patients who underwent surgery plus radiotherapy (S+RT) vs radiotherapy alone (RT) in stage II, III, IVA were $100\%\;vs\;43\%$ (p=0.17), $62\%\;vs\;52\%$ (p=0.32), $58\%\;vs\;6\%$ (p<0.001), respectively. The 5-year actuarial locoregional control rate (5YLCR) of all the patients was $57\%$. The 5YLCR of the patients with stage I, II, III, IVA, IVB was $100\%,\;74\%,\;60\%,\;44\%,\;30\%$, respectively (p=0.008). The 5YLCR of the patients with S+RT vs RT in stage II, III, IVA was $100\%\;vs\;68\%$ (p=0.29), $67\%\;vs\;55\%$ (p=0.23), $81\%\;vs\;20\%$ (p<0.001), respectively. In the radiotherapy alone group, the 5YLCR of the patients with a complete, partial, and minimal response were $76\%,\;20\%,\;0\%$, respectively (p<0.001). In all patients, multivariate analysis showed that the N-stage, surgery or not, and age were significant factors affecting the survival rate and that the N-stage, surgery or not, and the ECOG performance index were significant factors affecting the locoregional control. In the radiotherapy alone group, multivariate analysis showed that the radiation response and N-stage were significant factors affecting the overall survival rate as well as locoregional control. Conclusion : In early stage supraglottic carcinoma, conventional radiotherapy alone is an equally effective modality compared to surgery plus radiotherapy and could preserve the laryngeal function. However, in the advanced stages, radiotherapy combined with concurrent chemotherapy for laryngeal preservation or surgery should be considered. In bulky neck disease, all the possible planned neck dissections after induction chemotherapy or before radiotherapy should be attempted.

  • Hypophayngeal cancers are usually diagnosed in advanced stages and in many cases, they need total pharyngocervical esophagectomy and surgical reconstruction. Among many surgical reconstructive methods, jejunal free flap has anatomical and functional advantages such as tubed nature, peristaltic activity, excellent blood supply. In this study we analysed the surgical procedure and complications of jejunal free flap after total pharyngo-cervical esophagectomy. 20 cases performed jejunal free flap from 1995 to 2007 at Severance Hospital were reviewed. According to time of onset, early and late complications were reviewed. Surgical procedure was reviewed with operation record. Oral diet tolerance was reviewed on the basis of pharyngogram and subjective symptoms. The most common complication was stricture, and it occurred in 40% of cases and 63% of them were managed with conservative care. As early complication, fistula formation was all managed with conservative care. Oral feeding tolerance after jejunal free flap was 65% and 7 patients were tolerable to general diet. In our study, stricture was the most common complication and its management is important in post op oral diet tolerance.
