The closure of a wide alveolar cleft and fistula in cleft patients and the reconstruction of a maxillary dentoalveolar defect in bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP) patients are challenging for both orthodontists and oromaxillofacial surgeons. It is due to the difficulty in achieving complete closure by using local attached gingiva (palatal flap) and the great volume of bone required for the graft. In this article, the authors used bifocal distraction-compression osteosynthesis(BDCO) to create a segment of new alveolar bone and attached gingiva for the complete approximation of a wide alveolar cleft/fistula and the reconstruction of a maxillary dentoalveolar defect. Since the alveoli and gingivae on both ends of the cleft were approximated after BDCO, the need for extensive alveolar bone grafting was eliminated. It also could create new alveolar bone and gingiva for orthodontic tooth movement and implant.

A 8-year-old boy underwent surgical correction of complete transposition S.D.D. of great arteries combined with subaortic ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis [infundibular and valvular]. The operation consisted of an internal baffling connecting the left ventricle to the aorta through the ventricular septal defect. The pulmonary stenosis was corrected with the method of external connection, the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery using the conduit valve [20 mm] contained Hancock due to abnormal distribution of left coronary artery of which conduit due to abnormal distribution of left coronary artery of which the circumflex branch crossed the portion of right ventricular outflow tract. This case was suitable for corrective surgery-Rastelli operation-and the patient`s condition in very good until present [post-operative 5 months].

Mustard succeeded in the physiological correction of the circulation for transposition of the great arteries by redistribution of the pulmonary and systemic venous blood flow using pericardial baffle in the atrium. This procedure has become one of the most confirmative corrective operations for transposition. A six years old girl was performed mustard operation for complete transposition of the great arteries combined with hemodynamically insignificant ventricular septal defect in December 1979. The postoperative patient`s condition has been satisfactory and she is now enjoying a productive life.

A 18-year-old female underwent surgical correction of tricuspid atresia and complete transposition of great arteries combined with atrial 8 ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. After the transection of main pulmonary artery just above the pulmonic valve, proximal portion of main pulmonary artery was closed with running suture and distal portion of main pulmonary artery anastomosed with right atrial appendage without valve insertion. Atrial septal defect was closed with running suture. Postoperative course was uneventful and she discharged on 18th postoperative day. Her condition is in very good until present. Modified Fontan`s operation without valve placement [in the condition of low pulmonary vascular resistance and good left ventricular function] may has a good result.

Management process of apartment buildings construction has increased because the after service of construction company meet the needs of customers. Many defect data, which was inspected by construction company or customers before moving into a new apartment house, were classified by field engineers and then communicated to corresponding subcontractors. The classification process needs to be performed by an expert engineer because there is so much data, it is unfeasible to complete in a short period of time. For this classification process, an automatic classification system using case base reasoning (CBR) should be considered. This research proposed a defect management system with automatic classification system using CBR. This constructed defect management system consists of cyber after service system for tenants and the whole defect management process of construction, preservation and management of apartment buildings. This system could improve the efficiency of expert work in terms of time and accuracy, as well as helping laymen users to conduct defect classification work as experts do.

Thirty-seven patients had undergone repair of a endocardial cushion defect between 1977 and Aug. 1983 in Seoul National University Hospital. Twenty eight had a partial defect, one intermediate defect and eight complete endocardial cushion defect. Tricuspid cleft was found in 4 cases and mitral cleft was in all p-ECD. Seven patients were of type C anatomy in c-ECD. Four patients had associated major anomalies, including three TOF in c-ECD, one coarctation in p- ECD. In p-ECD patients, the septal defect was closed with patch in all cases and the atrioventricular valvular insufficiency was corrected with MVR in 4 cases, TVR in 1 case and simple interrupted sutures in remainders. In c-ECD patients the septal defect was closed with single patch except one case. The atrioventricular valve was repaired with simple interrupted sutures except one MVR and TVR case. The operative mortality was 14.2% in p-ECD, 44.4% in c-ECD, but recent 3 years [1980-1983] mortality was 8.7% in p-ECD, 20% in c-ECD. More than grade III systolic regurgitant murmur was oted postoperatively in 4 cases of c-ECD and 3 cases of p-ECD. The operative risk factors were preoperative NYHA classification, cyanosis, Rp/Rs, systolic pressure of main pulmonary artery and the degree of regurgitation of atrioventricular valves. The causes of death were low cardiac output syndromes, pulmonary complications and arrhythmias.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of rhBMP-2 on the healing of bone defect in the low calcium diet rat. Materials and Methods: To prepare the experimental model, control group was fed a normal diet and experimental group was fed a low calcium diet for 3 weeks. And then, 4 mm bicortical perforated bone defect was made on mandibular body of each rats. Experimental group was subdivided into two groups; experimental group 1 (rats given a low calcium diet before and after bone defect) and experimental group 2 (rats given a low calcium diet before and after bone defect with rhBMP-2 application). At 1, 3, 5 and 7 weeks after bone defect formation, the rats were terminated. The healing of bone defect was assessed by three-dimensional computerized tomography, soft x-ray radiography, and histopathological examination. Results : The wound healing of the bone defect for control group, experimental group 1, and experimental group 2 showed a increase from 3 weeks after bone defect formation. The experimental group 2 showed a more increase in healing amount than control group and experimental group 1 from 5 weeks after bone defect formation and the experimental group 2 showed a complete recovery of bone defect at 7 weeks after bone defect formation. Conclusion: The healing process of bone defect is accelerated by rhBMP-2 application in the low calcium diet rats.

Fifty seven patients underwent repair of a partial atrioventricular septal defect from January 1980 to December 1986. The ostium primum atrial septal defect was closed with autologous or bovine pericardium. The cleft in the anterior mitral leaflet was present in 53 cases, absent in 4 cases. Of the 53 cases with a cleft in the anterior mitral leaflet, 48 received suture repair of the cleft, 3 received mitral valve replacement. There was no hospital death and all the patients were followed-up for a mean period of 26.4 months. Four required permanent pacemaker implantation due to complete heart block, and one of them died of sudden malfunction of pacemaker. Two received reoperation due to significant residual mitral insufficiency. Suture repair of the cleft in the anterior mitral leaflet resulted in significant decrease in degree of mitral regurgitation. During follow-up period 49 patients were in NYHA class I, 7 patients were in NYHA class II. This report suggests that excellent result can be achieved from repair of the partial atrioventricular septal defect by managing the left A-V valve as a bileaflet structure.

Sinus venosus type atrial septal defect is commonly associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return[PAPVR . Ideal surgical repair of sinus venosus ASD with PAPVR demands complete closure of septal defect with redirection of the anomalous pulmonary venous return to the left atrium without obstructing the superior vena cava[SVC or the anomalous pulmonary vein and without injury of sinoatrial node and residual shunt. In our two patients, the closure of sinus venosus ASD and correction of PAPVR could be accomplished by simple direct sutures without using a patch or flap. Both patients had a good outcome.

Between 1981 and 1987, five patients with an interruption of the aortic arch were operated upon. All had a ventricular septal defect and a patent ductus arteriosus as associated anomalies. A two-stage procedure was employed in these cases, the initial procedure being repair of the interrupted arch, ligation of the patent ductus arteriosus, banding of the main pulmonary artery and a lung biopsy which was followed, 5 to 49 months later, by the repair of the ventricular septal defect. Four patients completed the two-stage procedure with one postoperative mortality. The remaining patient is yet to complete the second stage procedure.
