Distraction osteogenesis was pioneered by Ilizarov in the treatment of injured extremities. Its subsequent application to Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery has opened a new chapter in the treatment of facial deformity. Careful monitoring of the period of distraction and consolidation of the callus is important and has been well described. Complications, such as infection, haematoma and premature ossification, are difficult to diagnose and can compromise the outcome after the surgery. Too slow rate of distraction results in premature fusion of cortices and too rapid information of bone 'cyst' within the callus distraction. I experienced 2 patients of congenital unilateral mandibular hypoplasia, so called Hemifacial Microsomia. After distraction surgery, I evaluated callus formation of mandibular distraction with Ultrasound Sonography during distraction and consolidation period. Plain radiography, although it enables accurate measurement of the distraction gap, did not give sufficient detail to allow assessment of early stages of bone formation, But, ultrasound monitoring could enable continuous monitoring of the distraction gap without exposure to ionizing radiation and allow detection of fine detail, which may influence manipulation of the callus.

The anomalous pancreaticobiliary duct union (APBDU) might cause the formation of choledochal cyst and malignancies of hepatopancreaticobiliary system. The purpose of this study is to make an experimental animal model of APBDU similar to that of human. One to two-month-old Mongrel dogs (n=12) were divided into two groups; the control group (n=2) had a sham operation performed, and in the experimental group (n=10) the end of distal ' common bile duct (CBD) was anastomosed to the side of the dorsal pancreatic duct making APBDD. Serum was obtained for chemical analysis on the 10th postoperative day. The dogs were sacrificed at the 5th week (n=3), the 6th week (n=3), the 7th week (n=2), the 8th week (n=2) and the 6th month (n=2) after the experimental surgery. With sacrifice, operative cholangiogram was taken, and bile juice was obtained for chemistry and bacterial culture. The en-bloc specimens of the hepatopancreaticobiliary system were removed for microscopic examination. Serum and bile juice amylase levels were elevated in the experimental group(n=10), but not in the control group(n=2). Operative cholangiograms of control group revealed no evidence of bile duct dilatation.. On the other hand, the bile duct in the experimental group was markedly dilated without any evidence of stenosis at the anastomosis site (n=10). Histologic examination of the hepatopancreaticobiliary system in the experimental group resembled the findings of choledochal cyst in human. The APBDU of this animal model can produce bile duct dilatation by pancreaticobiliary reflux. We think that this animal model can be potentially promising for the research about the APBDU associated hepatopancreaticobiliary diseases.

Early nematode development and subcellular responses in resistant soybean lines PI 88788 and PI 437654 infected with races 3 (R3) and 14 (R14) of soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines Ichinohe, were compared. SCN R14 nematodes penetrated and developed significantly more than R3 at 5-6 days after inoculation. Both races also penetrated and developed more in PI 88788 than in PI 437654. Syncytia, characterized by cell wall dissolution and cellular hypertrophy, were developed more in PI 88788 than in PI 437654 and more by R14 than R3, for which less necrotic responses occurred in the former than the latter. This suggests that the latter two may be more resistant and less virulent than the former two, respectively. A common structural feature found in each of PI 437654 and PI 88788 in relation to SCN-resistance was the formation of prominent cell wall appositions and nuclear degeneration prior to cytoplasmic degradation in syncytial cells, respectively. Necrosis and cell wall apposition are types of hypersensitive responses occurring at early stages of the nematode infection so that these structural modifications indicate the inhibition of initial syncytial development related to the early nematode development. As soybean cultivars and lines with identical or similar genotypes have the same types of structural features related to SCN-resistance, the structural modifications induced by SCN infection may result from the expression of inheritable resistance genes, of which the information can be used for breeding soybean cultivars and lines specifically resistant to SCN races.

The aneurysmal bone cyst is a nonmalignant reactive bone lesion. Developing rarely in the craniofacial region, and more commonly affecting the long bones and the spine, the lesion has variable etiopathogenic characteristics. The authors diagnosed a 33-year-old female as aneurysmal bone cyst after undergoing clinical, radiological and histological examinations. The characteristics were as followed: 1. The patient complained of pain and swelling of the right preauricular area. 2. The conventional radiograms showed a relatively well defined radiolucent lesion with partially scalloping margin. The cortical bone of the right condyle was thinned and expanded by the lesion. 3. Bone scintigraphy with ~c demonstrated ring-like or doughnut-pattern accumulation of radioactivity. 4. On Tl-weighted imaging of MRI, the lesion on the right condyle had middle signal intensity. T2-weighted MRI demonstrated multiple high signal intensities seperated by septa which had low signal intensity. Finger in balloon appearance was seen. 5. Histologically, the lesion was composed of large sinusoidal blood spaces lined by fibroblasts and histiocytes. Its fibrous stroma consisted of fibroblstic element, multinucleated giant cells, extravasated erythrocytes and focal hemosiderin pigmentation. New bone formation was also observed around larger sinusoidal spaces.

A clinical investigation was reported on 17 cases of spontaneous pneumothorax requiring surgical mana-gement. Males outnumbered females 15:2. Determination of the etiology in this series showed that the majority were pulmonary tuberculosis and paragonimiasis. Several others had pneumonia, lung abscess, cyst and blebs. It is of particular interest that the acute inflammation of respiratory system was younger age group, pulmonary tuberculosis & paragonimiasis were between 2 nd and 3 rd decades, and lung abscess, cyst, blebs were above 4 th decade. Pulmonary tuberculosis was far advanced bilateral and active. The ratio of right to left side was 13:6 and both side involved in 2 cases. In about half cases of patients, above 50%-collapsed lung associated with mediastinal shifting developed. The complications were pleural effusion and bronchopleural fistula. The former was 13 cases [76.4%] in which 3 cases combined with mixed infection, and latter was 5 cases. As the management, 11 cases were subjected to intercostal or rib resection drainage with continuous suc-tion. Among 11 drainage cases, 8 cases were successful in acute stage and 3 cases failed in chronic stage. This faiure was due to interference with re-expansion of collapsed lung for peel formation and broncho-pleural fistula. The open thoractomy was applied in 9 cases, among which primary operation were 5 cases and drainage failure were 4 cases. Among 11 cases subjected to the open thoracotomy, wedged resection was performed in 3 cases including paragonimiatic cyst, and pneumonectomy in 1 case-tuberculosis, and decortication only was performed in 2 cases in paragonimiasis. Decortication & lung resection was carried out in 2 patients among which ruptured lung abscess 1 case and ruptured multiple blebs 1 case. There was no case of death but prognosis of the tuberculosis may be poor because of far advanced bilateral and active pulmonary tuberculosis.

Purpose: With the recent recognition of the importance of soft-tissue fillers, fat grafting has been assumed an increasingly important role as both an adjunctive and a primary procedure in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. The main problem in achieving long-term soft-tissue augmentation is partial absorption of the injected fat and hence the need for overcorrection and re-injection. The purpose of this study is to improve the viability of the injected fat by the use of Lipo-PGE1. Methods: Human adipose tissue, obtained by suctionassisted lipectomy, was re -injected into the subcutaneous layer in the scalp of ICR mice. Lipo-PGE1 ($0.5{\mu}g$/kg) was injected intravenously in experimental group for 7 days from the operation day and saline was injected in control group. There were 5 animals in each group. The animals were euthanized 4 weeks after the procedure. Graft weight and volume were measured and histologic evaluation was performed. Result: Histologic analysis demonstrated significantly less cyst formation and less inflammatory reaction in the group treated with Lipo-PGE1. No significant difference was found between the groups regarding graft volume or the other histologic parameters investigated. Significant differences were demonstrated in microvascular density count. Conclusion: Less cyst formation, less inflammation, more angiogenesis indicating improved quality of the injected fat can be obtained by the addition of Lipo-PGE1. Further studies of various dosages of Lipo-PGE1 and their long-term effect are required before these encouraging results could be applied clinically.

Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is associated with the development of various diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying oxidative stress that lead to such diseases like autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) remain unclear. Here, we observed that oxidative stress markers were increased in Pkd1f/f:HoxB7-Cre mice. Forkhead transcription factors of the O class (FOXOs) are known key regulators of the oxidative stress response, which have been observed with the expression of FoxO3a in an ADPKD mouse model in the present study. An integrated analysis of two datasets for differentially expressed miRNA, such as miRNA sequencing analysis of Pkd1 conditional knockout mice and microarray analysis of samples from ADPKD patients, showed that miR-132-3p was a key regulator of FOXO3a in ADPKD. miR-132-3p was significantly upregulated in ADPKD which directly targeted FOXO3 in both mouse and human cell lines. Interestingly, the mitochondrial gene Gatm was downregulated in ADPKD which led to a decreased inhibition of Foxo3. Overexpression of miR-132-3p coupled with knockdown of Foxo3 and Gatm increased ROS and accelerated cyst formation in 3D culture. This study reveals a novel mechanism involving miR-132-3p, Foxo3, and Gatm that is associated with the oxidative stress that occurs during cystogenesis in ADPKD.
