To understand the current status of neonatal surgery in Korea, a survey was made among the 36 members of the Korean Association of Pediatric Surgeons. The response rate was 75 % (26 surgeons in 20 hospitals). Five hundred fifty three neonatal surgical patients treated in 1999 were analyzed. Regional numbers of patients were closely related to the regional population in most areas. Ano-rectal malformations (17 %), pyloric stenosis (16 %), Hirschsprung's disease (13 %), atresia/stenosis of the gut (11 %), esophageal atresia (8 %) were the most common anomalies treated. The majority of operations were done within the first week of life. Seventy one per cent of cases were major life threatening or so-called neonatal index cases. Over-all mortality was 8 per cent. Higher mortality was observed in patients with diaphragmatic hernia (26 %), gastro-intestinal perforation (18 %), NEC (18 %), and esophageal atresia(14 %). Higher mortality was observed in patients with extremely low birth weight (33%) and low birth weight (18 %). Associated anomalies were observed in 20 %. Prenatal ultrasound was performed in 36 per cent with sensitivity of 20 %. Result of this study was compared to the previous report (1994) and that of Japan (1998).

Esophageal reconstruction was performed in 344 patients with irreversible stricture of the esophagus resulting from caustic burns at National Medical Center from 1959 to 1982.There were 113 males and 231 females, and ranging from 2.5 to 58 years of age, and mean age was 26.5 years, and 25 cases were less than 10 years old. Caustic materials were 286 [83.2%] alkali and 50[14.5%] acid. The most frequent stricture site was upper thoracic esophagus as 56.7%, and the next was cervical as 31.4%, and lower, 11.9%. The stomach was involved in 10.8% totally, and hypopharyngeal stricture was also noticed in 3.2%, and in 3 cases, hypopharyngeal reconstruction was needed due to extensive scar change. In 329 of total 344 cases, colon interposition was performed without resection of the strictured esophagus except 4 cases which were complicated T-E fistula or perforation, and most of them, about 10-15 cm of terminal ileum with right half of the colon was used as the graft. The left colon with anti-peristalsis was used as graft only in 30 cases. The most common postoperative complication was anastomotic leak as 16.7% of total cases, and it was 12.5% from neck, 3.3% from ileocolostoma and 0.9% from cologastrostoma. Next common complication was neck stenosis [8.8%], aspiration pneumonia [6.4%], and graft necrosis [3.9%] in order. Overall operative mortality was 5.5% [14/329], and main causes of death were graft necrosis, sepsis due to anastomotic leak, gastric bleeding, and intestinal obstruction. Besides of colon interposition, according to shape or level of the stricture, plastic repair or segmental resection and direct anastomosis was done in 9, and 1 of them were complicated stenosis at the anastomotic site. In lower stricture, esophagogastrostomy was done in 10 cases, and 1 case expired due to hepatitis, and anastomotic stenosis was occurred in 2 cases at 1.5 months and 2.4 years later. During follow-up of 298 cases colon interposition from 6 months to 22 years, 82.6% was excellent, and 2.9% was complained of mild discomfort, and 4 cases were dead laterly, but 3 of them were not related to reconstruction.

소장 평활근육종은 매우 드물고 특이증상이 없으므로 원인 모를 위장관 출혈, 장폐쇄, 종물촉지, 빈혈, 복통 및 오한 등이 동반될 때 한 번은 고려하여 조기진단으로 환자의 사망율을 줄여야 할 것으로 사료된다. 최근들어 우리 나라에서도 그 증례보고가 늘어나고 본원에서도 2예를 경험한 바 이를 요약하면 1) 2예 모두 33세 남자였다 2) 발생부위는 공장 1예, 회장 1예였다 3) 주소는 1예에서는 복부통증을 동반한 종물촉지였고 다른 l 예에서는 천공에 의한 급성복막염 증상이었다. 4) 실험치상 CEA가 1예에서는 3.37에서 11.65ng/ml로 증가하였고, 다른 1예에서는 1.83 ng/ml였다. 혈색소는 술전 8.1gm%, 9.5gm%로 나타났다. Benzidine 잠혈반응은 둘 다 양성(++)였다. 5) 수술은 1예에서는 광범위 절제술 실시후 약 13개월만에 재발하여 재 수술하여 조직 검사를 다시 시행한 후 화학요법(VAC) 치료후 현재까지 외래에서 정기검진을 하고 있으며, 나머지 l예에서는 광범위 절제술후 15일만에 자진 퇴원하여 결과관철이 되지 못하고 있다.

목 적 : 단일 기관에서 경험한 소화기계의 수술적 치료를 받은 극소 저체중 출생아들의 임상적 특성을 연구하였다. 방 법 : 1994년 11월부터 2007년 2월까지 삼성서울병원 신생아 집중 치료실에 입원하였던 극소 저체중 출생아 총 1,117명에 대해 서혜부 탈장을 제외한 소화기계의 수술적 치료를 받은 군(37명)과 소화기계 수술을 받지 않은 군(1,080명)으로 나누어 이들에 대해 의무기록을 통해 후향적으로 조사 분석하였다. 결 과 : 극소 저체중 출생아 37명(3.3%)이 소화기계 수술적 치료를 받았으며. 이들은 소화기 수술을 받지 않은 군(n=1,080)에 비해 재태 연령($27^{+6}2^{+3}$ vs. $28^{+5}{\pm}$2^{+6}$)과 출생 체중(979${\pm}$241 g vs. 1071${\pm}$271 g)이 더 작았다. 사망률은 소화기계 수술을 받은 군에서 유의하게 높았다(28% vs. 15%, P<0.001). 또한 생존한 환자 분석에서 담즙 정체증, 미숙아 망막증, 뇌백질 연화증는 소화기계 수술을 받은 VLBWI에서 유의하게 높았으나 기관지폐이형성증에서 유의한 차이는 없었다. 수술 적응증으로는 국소성 장천공이 가장 많았고 괴사성 장염에 비해 좋은 예후를 보였다. Period I (1994-2000)과 Period II (2001-2007. 2) 두 기간 동안 ELBWI의 소화기 수술이 크게 증가하였고 생존율이 향상되었다. 결 론 : 극소 저체중 출생아에서 소화기계 수술적 치료는 사망률과 이환율 증가와 관계된 중요한 인자이다. 미숙아 치료의 질적 향상을 위하여 소화기계 수술적 치료의 사망률과 이환율을 줄이기 위한 노력은 필수적이며 따라서 이들에 대한 좀 더 체계적 연구가 필요하다.

Intending to offer basic information for a prospective health services in Korea, this study is to investigate the complication caused by sterilization in goverment family planning program from 1962 to 1995. The results are as follows: 1. Total number of sterilization performed during the period from 1962 to 1995 were 1.367,772 cases of male sterilization and 2,889,635 cases of female sterilization. 2. Incidence of the complication caused by sterilization operation from 1980 to 1995 were 1,883(0.20%) out of 925,801 cases in vasectomies and 15,866(0.70%) out of 2,256,020 cases in tubal sterilizations. 3. Major complications in vasectomy were epididymities of 658 cases (34.9%), vas recanalization of 326 cases(17.3%), hematoma of 266 cases(14.1%), scrotal abscess of 184 cases(9.8%), sperm granuloma of 76 cases(4.0%),and other of 373 cases(19.8%). On the other hand, in tubal sterilization, ectopic pregnancy was the most significant complication of 15,078 cases (95.0%) among 15,866 total complications, followed by pelvic inflammatory diseases of 155 cases(0.9%), peritonities of 96 cases(0.6%), ovarian & tubal bleeding of 31 cases(0.2%), intestinal perforation of 16 cases (0.1%), uterine bleeding of 14 cases(0.1%), uterine cervix laceration of 1 case (0.1%), and other of 271 cases(1.7%), while 161 pregnancies(0.1%) were terminated and 43 cases(0.3%) with normal delivery. 4. The occurrence rate of the complication for each period showed that most of the complication cases by vasectomy occurred in a year after the operation -the cases were 1,256 (66.7%). 254 cases(13.5%) occurred between the next year and the 2nd year, 138 cases (7.3%) between the 2nd year and the 3rd year, 73 cases(3.9%) between the 3rd year and the 4th year, 52 cases(2.8%) between the 4th year and the 5th year, 31 cases(1.6%) between the 5th year and the 6th year, 79 cases(4.2%) over the 6th year. Tubal sterilization indicated that the occurred complication cases in a year were 2,175 cases(13.7%), 2,113 cases(13.3%) occurred between the next year and the 2nd year, 2,082 cases(13.1%) between the 2nd year and the 3rd year, 2,049 cases (12. 9%) between the 3rd year and the 4th year, 1,819 cases(11.5%) between the 4th year and the 5th year, 621 cases(10.2%) between the 5th year and the 6th year, 4,007 cases(25.3%) over the 6th year. 5. For the cost of complication treatment, total \7,928,229,000 were paid as medical expenditure in which \609,438,000 for vasectomy and \7,318,791,000 for tubal sterilization. Accordingly per capita expenses were \345,000 for vasectomy and \467,000 for tubal sterilization. As the proportion of government sterilization program was decreased after 1988, that of private sterilization program would be increased. So it is recommended to set a guideline for the private sterilization program and to continue government sterilization program for the lower class.

Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is usually a disease of premature infants, but occasionally it affects the term neonate. Twenty-five infants with NEC were treated at Asan Medical Center between January 2000 and December 2002, and 13 of them were term infants. In each case, the diagnosis of NEC was established by a clinical illness fulfilling the Bell's stage II or III NEC as modified by Walsh or by surgical findings. There were six males and seven females. The birth weight was from 1,960 to 3,700 g. The age at diagnosis was from 1 to 40 days. Four patients had congenital heart disease: one of who had hypothyroidism and cleft palate. Abdominal distension was present in all, and bloody stools in four. One patient had history of hypoglycemia, three had Rota viral infection. Eight patients had leucopoenia (<$5.0{\times}10^9/L$), seven had thrombocytopenia (<$100{\times}10^9/L$), and three severe thrombocytopenia (<$50{\times}10^9/L$). Laparotomy was required in 10 of the 13 patients. Indications for operation in the acute phase were failure to respond to aggressive medical therapy in five, and perforation in three patients. There were two late phase operations for intestinal stricture and fistula. There were no operative complications. Ten of thirteen patients survived (76.9%). Two patients died of septic complication. There was a delayed death due to heart failure. There was a significant difference in survival according to platelet count ($50{\times}10^9/L$) (p<0.05). Congenital heart disease and Rota viral infection are associated with NEC in term infants and thrombocytopenia and leucopoenia may be surgical indications.

본 연구는 74세 여자 환자가 심정지 후 일반인과 119구급대원들에게 시행된 심폐소생술의 합병증인 기복증에 대한 증례를 경험하였기에 이에 대한 임상양상과 병태생리를 조사하기 위해 시도되었다. 평소 건강했던 74세 여자가 식당에서 일하던 중 갑자기 발생한 의식저하로 쓰러졌다. 증상발생 후 즉시 119에 신고를 하였고 현장에서 목격자에 의한 즉각적인 심폐소생술이 시행되었으며, 현장에 도착한 119구급대원에 의한 심폐소생술과 제세동이 시행된 결과 자발순환을 회복하였다. 자발순환 회복 후 환자는 인근 2차병원으로 이송되어 시행한 심전도 검사에서 급성심근경색이 의심되어 추가적인 검사와 치료를 위해 3차병원으로 이송되었다. 이후 시행한 X-ray 검사와 복부전산화 단층촬영 검사결과 위문접합부의 파열과 다량의 기복증을 보여 수술치료를 결정하였으나 수술실에서 다시 심정지가 발생하여 심폐소생술을 시행하였으나 환자는 결국 사망하였다. 따라서 병원 전 현장에서 심폐소생술을 시행 할 때 흉부압박의 정확한 위치 선정이 필요하며 양압 환기에 대한 신중한 고려가 필요하겠다. 또한 심폐소생술 후 발생한 기복증의 치료는 환자의 혈역학적 상태를 충분히 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
