  • Russell-Silver syndrome (RSS) is a congenital disease characterized by short stature due to growth hormone deficiency, physical asymmetry, inverted triangular face, micrognathia, prominent forehead, and hypodontia. This case report presents a prosthetic management of a 6-year-old patient with Russell-Silver syndrome treated with overdentures on the maxilla and the mandible using the remaining primary teeth. Subsequent and comprehensive dental management considering the growth and development of a young patient will be necessary.

  • Therapeutic exercise had developed with human being. It depend upon development of physiology, anatomy, kinesiology and biomechanics. There are two categories in therapeutic exorcise. One is classical therapeutic exercise which is a activity of one muscle group, one axis and one plane motion. It is ROM, FRE. osteokinematics, arthrokinematics. Another is neurophysiological approach which is multi muscle group, multi axis and plane exercise. It is PNF and Bobath that start from 1940 to early 1950. Classical therapeutic exorcise develop from ROM to osteokinematics and arthrokinematics. It is foundation of the joint mobilization and orthopaedic manual physical therapy. Neurophysiological therapeutic approaching has more theory and skills than before. Bobath methods had changed from reflex-inhibiting posture to key points of control and added the theory of musculoskeletal, biomechanics, motor behaviour and cognition. We call it motor control.

  • Cranio sacral therapy is a refinend and subtle type of osteopathic treatment that encourages the realease of stresses and tentions throughout the body, including the head. Cranio sacral therapy is trained to feel a very subtle, rhythmical shape change that is present in all tissue. This is called Involuntary Motion or Cranial Rhythm. The movement is of very small amplitude therefore it takes practitioners with a very finely developed sense of touch to feel it. This Rhythm was first described in the early 1900's by Dr. William G. Sutherland and its existence was confirmed in laboratory tests in the 1960's and 1970's. Tension in the body disrupts the cranial rhythm. This shows them what stresses and strains your body is under a present and what tentions it may be carrying as a result of its past history.

  • The purpose of this study was to emphasize the strategy of the home visiting physical therapy for elderly patients who have joint and musculoskeletal problems, disabled person who staying in home and early discharged person who staying in home with replacement of artificial hip joint and central nerve system problems with CP, CVA, SCI etc. Home visiting physical therapist can provide evaluation and diagnosis, treatment with their special knowledge and techniques, treatment council and education for the patients and family member and refer the patients to other specialist. Home visiting physical therapy can expects that patients will have better treatment with emotionally, economically and for long term care patients.

  • The multiple acupuncture techniques have been used to relieve the pain of lateral ankle sprain. Recently, early functional rehabilitation is emphasized in rehabilitative concepts using active ROM, facilitated proprioception, alphabet exercise and so forth. Similarly, in oriental rehabilition medicine, traditional movement technique called 'Dong-Ki' has been used to relieve pain of ankle sprain. So we used 'Dong-Ki' technique with SSP(silver spike point) electrotherapy transformed from alphabet exercise and evaluated the effects in method of randomized controlled trials. 27 outpatients with lateral ankle sprains were randomized into two groups : 15 samples and 12 controls. Sample group was treated with 'Dong-Ki' technique(writing his name with foot) with SSP electrotherapy to relieve pain during additionally. 'Dong-Ki'. Outcomes were measured by 10cm VAS and ankle circumference(cm). In terms of VAS, Sample group had inclination of pain relieving but not significantly meaningful. In terms of ankle circumference measurement, Sample group showed significantly improved.

  • Conversion disorder has difficulties of clinic discriminationis. If it is possible at the early stage, rehabilitation time and cost will be reduced. This case is that of motor and sensory disorder. The clinic progress has well showed the characters of conversion disorder. This study will be helpful for the understanding of the conversion disorder.

  • Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis may induce impairment of speech motor system. This review discusses the characteristics of dysarthria and symptom management for these conditions. Given the progressive nature of the neurodegenerative diseases, speech-language pathologists must be aware of appropriate augmentative and alternative communication equipment at the early stage of the disease course. Patients with neurodegenerative diseases can maintain functional communication with augmentative and alternative communication supports.

  • To be a good architecture, resident' needs should be defined as possible as definitely. A Multi-family housing is not easy to define of resident' needs, because the user is ambiguous and the needs is multi aspects. Byker housing project have a good approach to define ambiguous and many aspects of residence' need. In this view points, Byker redvelopment project show the process of resident' participation as a new customers, and design process architect with people, in spite of the early 1970s' project in terms of the user participations. This approach of residence participation is a good lesson how to communicate with recidence, how to identify the need, and its design is satisfied in the residence. And its project are discussed with residence how to manage of rehabilitation.

  • Reconstruction of the pharyngoesophagus is one of the most difficult challenges in head and neck surgery. The goals of pharyngoesophageal reconstruction include restoration of a person's ability to swallow and to speak with minimal morbidity, but no current reconstruction modality is clearly best. Following its first introduction as fasciocutaneous flap by Yang in 1981, the forearm flap based on radial artery has become recognized as a very reliable and relatively easy one to use. The forearm flap has thin, pliable and predominantly hairless skin and scant subcutaneous layer In addition, its vascular pedicle is long and of large caliber, which greatly increases the chance of successful revascularization. The forearm flap shows the potentiality for better functional rehabilitation in swallowing and speech as well as the possibility of three dimensional reconstruction. We experienced a case of radial forearm free flap for the reconstruction in a patient with the hypopharyngeal stricture. The early return of oral feeding was possible and successfully enough to return to the normal daily activity.

  • Ultrasound (US) imaging is an efficient, easy to use, rapid, dynamic, noninvasive, with rare side-effects and inexpensive tool allowing for facilitated diagnosis and management of the painful shoulder. It also has advantages over other imaging modalities in the evaluation of the postoperative shoulder for rotator cuff integrity and correct anchor and suture placement, as well as rotator cuff analysis following repair surgery. Early postoperative tendons frequently had a hypo- echoic echo texture and the absence of a fibrillar pattern, which might be misinterpreted as recurrent tears. however, these features often normalized into tendons with an increased echo texture and the reappearance of a fibrillar pattern at 6 months. Based on these sequential findings, the US findings within 3 months after surgery should be interpreted with caution to accurately understand and monitor the repaired tendon status.
