Background and Objectives : The pectoralis major myocutaneous flap(PMMCF) has been considered to be the "workhorse" of pedicled flaps in head and neck reconstruction. Even with the worldwide use of free flaps, the PMMCF is still considered the mainstay in head and neck reconstruction. The aim of the study is to evaluate the application and reliability of the PMMCF in selected cases of head and neck complication. Materials and Methods : We conducted a retrospective review of 14 patients who underwent the surgical reconstruction using the PMMCF due to the complications after head and neck ablative surgery between 1997 and 2007. Outcome measures included the indications of PMMCF, complications and post-operative functional result. Results : PMMCFs were used to reconstruct defects in the following series; wound dehiscence(7 patients), flap failure(4 patients), pharyngocutaneous fistula(3 patients). Flap survival was 100 percent and mean flap size was $67.2cm^2$. Five patients had complications such as pharyngocutaneous fistula, marginal necrosis, carotid blowout. Conclusions : The PMMCF is a safe and convenient method for reconstruction of the surgical complications after resection of advanced tumors and can be still used as a salvage procedure after free flaps failure.

Objectives：DFSP(Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans) is an uncommon, slowly growing, locally invasive malignant tumor that usually presents as a painless, often long-standing mass arising in the dermis of skin. It occurs most frequently on the trunk and proximal parts of the limbs, less commonly in the head and neck region and has a frequent tendency to recur after surgical excision. Clinically, the initial appearance of the tumor similar to that of benign tumor such as keloid and dermatofibroma. Therefore, accurate clinical diagnosis and adequate surgical excision are important. Materials and Methods：We experienced 6 patients of DFSP in head and neck during the recent 6 years, 5 male and 1 female patients. The age of the patients ranged from 31 to 66. As reconstructive methods, the authors used cervicofacial flap, trapezius musculocutaneous flap, TRAM flap, anterolateral thigh free flap and skin graft. Results：The patients were followed up after operation from 24 to 79 months and all remained free of disease except one case, who occurred at forehead area. Conclusion：We present the experience of 6 cases of DFSP occurred in head and neck. We obtained satisfactory results with appropriate diagnosis and treatment which wide excision with surgical margins 3-5cm. We also present an operative plan of this locally aggressive and highly recurrent tumor.

Background/Objectives: To evaluate clinical significance of FDG PET-CT for detection of residual cancer cells after curative radiation therapy or chemoradiotherapy for patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of Head and Neck Materials & Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with SCC of Head and neck with curative radiotherapy or chemoradiotherpy between June 2011 and Jan. 2019 was performed. Sixty patients were treated with Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). The Metabolic responses were evaluated on the post-treatment FDG PET-CT at 12 weeks after curative radiotherapy completion. Results: Median follow up was 51.5 months (3-102). The overall survival (OS), disease free survival (DFS), local control rate (LCR), and Distant metastasis free survival (DMFS) at 5 years were 80.5%, 80.1%, 87.7% and 89.1%. Metabolic CR was found in 43 (71.7%) and partial metabolic response (PR) was noted in 17 (14.6%). Metabolic CR was significantly correlated with OS, DFS, LCR, and DMFS. On multivariate analysis, Metabolic CR remained significant for DFS and LCR. Conclusion: Metabolic CR on post-radiotherapy FDG PET-CT is highly predictive of increased DFS and LCR in patients with head and neck cancer.

The type of turbine developed is based on the very low head of water potential source for the electric power production. The area of research is focused for the axial water turbine that can be applied at the simple site open channel with has a very low cost and environmental impact compared to the conventional hydro installation. High efficiency of axial turbine which applied to the very low potential head will made this type of turbine can be used at wider potential site. Existing irrigation weir and river area will be the perfect site for this turbine. This paper will compare the effects of the variation of swirl velocity criterion during the design of the blade of guide vane and rotor of the turbine. Effects of the swirl velocity criterion is wider known as a vortex conditions (free vortex, force vortex and swirl velocity constant), and the free vortex is the very popular condition that applied by most of turbine designer, therefore will be interesting to do a comparison against other criterion. ANSYS Fluent will be used for simulation and to determine the predictive performance obtained by each of design criteria.

A 37 year-old male presented with sudden right proptosis and bilateral nasal obstruction. A huge tumor was noted in bilateral nasal cavities, ethmoid sinuses and central frontal sinus on magnetic resonance imaging. Right posterior frontal sinus wall and bilateral medial orbital wall was destructed by the tumor. Complete resection of the tumor was performed via minimal invasive craniofacial resection. Histopaghologic examination revealed sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC). Cerebrospinal fluid leakage was developed after 2 days of the surgery. On the 5th day, anterior skull base was reconstructed with forearm free flap (FFF). The patient got 6000cGy of radiotherapy and survived in 27 months of follow up.

This study developed a three-dimensional helmet mold design software that can design helmets for treating the infant plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome) using three-dimensional head scan data. For this, the three-dimensional head data of sixth SizeKorea body measurement project as well as the data produced by a head modeling software were used to prepare the head shape data of plagiocephaly patients. A total of 14 landmarks and 10 dimensions of heads required for helmet mold shape design and plagiocephaly diagnosis were automatically measured using an anthropometric analysis software. Using the software developed in this study, plagiocephaly can be diagnosed not only visually by three-dimensional head data visualization but also quantitatively by calculating the medically defined indices such as cranial index, which measures the proportions of the head, and the cranial vault asymmetry index, which measures the asymmetry of the head. The basic shape of the helmet mold was automatically generated based on the head scan data. Additionally, it is possible to fine tune the shape of the mold to reflect individual characteristics by using a free form deformation technique. Finally, the designed helmet mold was converted into the data that can be printed on a three-dimensional printer for generating the actual prototype.
