고양이 뇌 지방색전증을 유발한 후 자기공명 관류영상기법을 이용하여 대뇌혈류량을 정량적으로 분석하고 동적특성 변화를 구현 할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 고양이 20마리를 대상으로 한쪽 내경동맥에 리노레익 (n=11)을 주입하여 뇌 지방색전을 유발시켰고, 대조군으로는 이바론 입자 (n=9)를 주입하여 색전이 유발되게 하였다. 그 후 30분과 2시간에 각각 T2강조, 확산강조영상을 획득하고 가장 색전이 많이 일어난 부위에서 관류강조영상을 획득하였다. 획득한 데이터는 IDL 소프트웨어와 자체 개발한 영상처리 알고리즘을 이용하여 신호강도 곡선을 ${\Delta}R_2^*$ 곡선으로 변환한 후 적분하여 뇌혈류량을 측정하였다. 실험군에서 병변부위의 뇌혈류량은 정상부위에 비해 감소하였으며, 뇌혈류량 비는 시간경과에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<0.005). 뇌 지방색전증의 초기에는 혈류량이 감소하였으나, 2시간에서는 30분에 비해 뇌혈류량이 다소 증가됨을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 뇌경색 발생시 조기에 자기공명확산 및 관류강조영상을 획득하여 개발한 영상처리 알고리즘을 적용하여 뇌 혈류량의 다양한 동적변화 특성 및 혈류역학적 변화를 상대적 관류도 맵으로 얻을 수 있었다.

자기공명 관류영상기법을 이용하여 고양이 뇌 지방색전증 유발한 후 대뇌혈류량을 정량적으로 분석하고 동적특성 변화를 구현하고자 하였다. 고양이 44마리를 대상으로 일측 내경동맥에 트리올레인 (n=15), 올레익 (n=9) 및 리노레익 (n=11)을 주입하여 뇌 지방색전을 유발시켰고, 대조군으로는 이바론 입자 (n=9)를 주입하여 색전이 유발되게 하였다. 그 후 30분과 2시간에 각각 T2강조, 확산강조영상을 획득하고 가장 색전이 많이 일어난 부위에서 관류강조영상을 얻었다. 획득한 데이터는 자체 개발한 영상처리 프로그램과 IDL 소프트웨어를 이용하여 신호강도 곡선을 ΔR$_2$＊ 곡선으로 변환한 후 적분하여 뇌혈류량을 측정하였다. 모든 군에서 병변부위의 뇌혈류량은 정상부위에 비해 감소하였다. 실험 각 군별 뇌혈류량 비는 시간경과에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었으며 (P＜0.005), 2시간에서는 30분에 비해 뇌혈류량이 다소 회복되었다. 뇌 지방색전증의 초기에는 혈류량이 감소하였다. 뇌경색 발생시 조기에 DWI와 PWI을 획득하여 뇌 혈류량의 다양한 동적변화 특성 및 혈류역학적 변화에 대한 정보를 임상적으로 제공 할 수 있으리라 여겨진다.

Purpose: study of the mutual influence of the individual anatomical regions damage in patients associated with falls from heights. Methods: 561 medical reports of patients associated with falls from heights admitted to Republican Research Center of Emergency Medicine (RRCEM), in period of 2010-2013 yy, were analyzed retrospectively. Patient's age range was from 15 to 89. Treatment of these patients held in three stages: period of acute disorders of vital functions; relative stabilization period; stabilization of vital functions. The scope and content of medical diagnostic procedures performed on pre-hospital and intensive care stages. The severity of each injury was scored according to the AIS scale, the total severity of lesions was scored by points due to ISS. Digital material is treated by methods of mathematical statistics. Results: Falls from heights leads to associated injuries for 4 times more than isolated trauma, and increases according to height of fall and falling surface. Patients with TBI+chest trauma, are most serious contingent that has highest mortality and complications (36.8%). TBI+musculoskeletal system trauma are characterized by high blood loss, traumatic shock and fat embolism, forming a vicious circle. Conclusion: in patients associated with falls from heights clinical manifestations of injuries mutual aggravation syndrome will be seen. TBI leads to complication of chest trauma, delayed diagnostics of abdominal and chest trauma, aggravation of coma condition. Developing of high blood loss and fat embolism in musculoskeletal system trauma leads to shock and pulmonary embolism, which increases probability of death in the presence of abdominal or chest trauma, but abdominal trauma or chest trauma has no significant effect on the severity of the musculoskeletal system trauma.

Purpose: Autologous fat injection into the facial area is a frequently used technique in aesthetic plastic surgery for augmentation of the soft tissue. Fat injection is a very safe procedure because of the advantage of being autologous tissue. Minimal foreign body reaction or infections are noted after fat injection. However, there may be some complications including those as severe as blindness. There have been some case reports on visual disturbances after autologous fat injection reported in the literature. Methods: A 21-year-old female patient underwent autologous fat injection into left eyebrow area to correct depression of soft tissue. Immediately after injection of autologous fat, she complained sudden visual loss on the left eye. She had come to our emergency room and ophthalmologic evaluation showed that the patient could only recognize hand motion. There was no abnormality of the optic nerve on magnetic resonance imaging. Suspecting an ischemic optic neuritis from fat embolism of the central retinal artery, the patient was treated conservatively with occular massage, antiglaucomatic agent, anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics. Visual field examination showed visual defect of half the lower hemisphere. Results: While maintaining antiglaucomatic agents and non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs, fundoscopic examination showed no abnormalities on the second day of admission. Visual field examination showed an improvement on the fourth day along with decreased eyeball pain. Significant improvement of vision was noted and the patient was discharged on the fifth day of admission. The patient was followed-up 2 days afterwards with improved vision and visual field defect. Conclusion: We describe an unusual case of sudden unilateral visual disturbance following autologous fat injection into periorbital area.

Evaluate the triolein emulsion could disrupt the barriers and to suggest as an experimental model in blood-ocular barrier studies. Triolein emulsion was infused into the carotid artery in the experimental group ten cats. Normal saline was used in another the control group ten cats. Pre contrast and postcontrast T1-weighted MR images were obtained at 30 minutes and 3 hours after embolization. Signal intensities were evaluated in the anterior, posterior chamber and in the vitreus qualitatively and quantitatively. Postembolization 30 minutes MR images were not different from those of the control group. Postembolization 3 hour MR images demonstrated delayed contrast enhancement in the anterior chamber of the ipsilateral and contralateral eyeballs and in the posterior chamber of the ipsilateral eyeball. Delayed contrast enhancement of the posterior chamber of the ipsilateral eyeball was statistically significant (P<0.05). The present study demonstrated significant contrast enhancement in the posterior chamber with infusion of triolein emulsion and can be a model in blood-aqueous barrier studies.

Acute respiratory failure has become an increasingly frequent cause of death following shock or trauma. Interstitial or diffuse alveolar edema, as chief pathophysiologic change of acute respiratory insufficiency, can be the result of sepsis, fat embolism, cardiac failure, lung congestion, and oxygen toxicity. These pulmonary problems are extremely difficult to treat without early recognition of their development and aggressive management. If the treatment is delayed, the progressive respiratory failure is almost uniformly fatal. Authors have experienced two cases of acute respiratory insufficiency following the blunt chest trauma, which were healed uneventfully. Literatures were briefly reviewed.
