목적: 급성 전방십자인대 손상 환자의 자기공명영상(magnetic resonance imaging, MRI)에서 나타난 골멍의 형태 및 크기와 전방십자인대의 손상 정도와의 관계를 알아보고 골멍의 발자취(footprint)를 조사해 손상기전을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 급성 전방십자인대 손상 6주 이내의 급성기에 자기공명영상을 촬영하여 골멍이 나타나는 65명을 대상으로 하였다. 골멍의 형태는 Costa-Paz 분류에 따라, 골멍의 크기는 Kornaat의 방식으로 측정하였다. 자기공명영상의 전방십자인대 관상사면영상(anterior cruciate ligament [ACL] oblique coronal view)에서 손상 정도를 등급화 하였다. 결과: Costa-Paz 분류에 따른 대퇴골 외과의 골멍 형태와 전방십자인대 손상 정도의 관계를 알아본 결과, 부분 파열군(1, 2 등급)에서 제2형이 많고, 완전 파열군(3 등급)에서 제3형이 많았다(P=0.037). Kornaat 총 골멍 점수는 전방십자인대 손상 등급에 따라 차이를 보였으며(P=0.014), 손상기전은 축회전 손상(pivot shift injury)이 가장 많았고 편타 외반 손상 (clip valgus injury) 등이 뒤를 이었다. 결론: 급성 전방십자인대 손상 시 골멍의 형태와 크기는 전방십자인대의 손상 정도와 관련이 있었고, 골멍의 발자취를 통해 손상기전을 유추할 수 있어 급성 전방십자인대 손상의 진단 및 치료에 도움이 되리라 사료된다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the result of combined first metatarsal and calcaneal osteotomy for static cavovarus deformity of the foot. Materials and Methods: We performed a dorsal closing wedge $1^{st}$ metatarsal osteotomy and a lateral and upward displacement calcaneal osteotomy for 9 patients, 12 feet (6 male and 3 female). The mean age at the time of operation was 37 years and the mean followup period was 27 months. The causes of deformity were 2 poliomyelitis, 1 cerebral palsy, 1 Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and 5 idiopathic type. Five lateral ligament reconstructions of the ankle and six percutaneous Achilles tendon lengthenings were added. The surgical results in terms of pain, function and alignment of the foot were evaluated by means of AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score and talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal, calcaneus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal and calcaneal pitch angles were checked with weight bearing radiographs in lateral projection. Results: Talo-$1^{st}$ metatarsal and calcaneal pitch angles were reduced from the mean preoperative values of $21^{\circ}$ and $25^{\circ}$ to $12^{\circ}$ and $19^{\circ}$, respectively, at last followup. Also, calcaneus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle was increased from the mean $114^{\circ}$ to $114^{\circ}$. The mean AOFAS score was improved from 44.5 points preoperatively to 89.2 points at followup. There were 1 metatarso-cueiform joint nonunion, 1 sural nerve injury and 3 remaining symptomatic claw toes. Conclusion: Combined first metatarsal and calcaneal osteotomy appears to be an effective procedure for the treatment of adult static cavovarus foot.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare kinematics and kinetics on the knee joint between stair gait with unstable shoes and barefoot in healthy adult women. Methods: Seventeen healthy adult women were recruited for this study. The subjects performed stair ascent and descent with unstable shoes and barefoot. The experiment was repeated three times for each stair gait with unstable shoes and barefoot. Measurement and analysis of the movements of the knee joint were performed using a three-dimensional analysis system. Results: Statistically significant differences in the knee muscle force of semimembranosus, biceps femoris-long head, biceps femoris-short head and sartorius, patellar ligament, medial gastrocnemius, and lateral gastrocnemius were observed between unstable shoes and barefoot gait during stair ascent. Statistically significant differences in the knee muscle force of sartorius, rectus femoris, medial gastrocnemius, and lateral gastrocnemius were observed between unstable shoes and barefoot gait during stair descent. Statistically significant differences in the knee flexor moment of semitendinosus, biceps femoris-long head, biceps femoris-short head, sartorius, rectus femoris, vastus intermedialis, medial gastrocnemius, and lateral gastrocnemius were observed between unstable shoes and barefoot gait during stair ascent. Conclusion: Therefore, wearing unstable shoes during stair gait in daily life is considered to influence knee joint kinematics and kinetics due to the unstable shoes, and thus suggest the possibility that reducing the risks of pain, and knee osteoarthritis, stabilizing the knee joint caused by changes in the loading of the knee joint.

A weak or dysfunctional gluteus medius (Gmed) is related to several pathologies, and individuals with hip abductor weakness have Gmed weakness. This study aimed to systematically review the literature associated with the anatomy and function of the Gmed, and the prevalence, pathology, and exercise of Gmed weakness. Papers published between 2010 and 2020 were retrieved from MEDLINE, Google Academic Search, and Research Information Sharing Service. The database search used the following terms: (glut* OR medius OR hip abduct*) AND weak*. The Gmed plays an important role in several functional activities as a primary hip abductor by providing pelvic stabilization and controlling hip adduction and internal rotation. Weakness of the Gmed is associated with many disorders including balance deficit, gait and running disorders, femoroacetabular impingement, snapping hip, gluteal tendinopathy, patellofemoral pain syndrome, osteoarthritis, iliotibial band syndrome, anterior cruciate ligament injury, ankle joint injuries, low back pain, stroke, and nocturia. Overuse of the tensor fasciae latae (TFL) as a hip abductor due to Gmed weakness can also cause several pathologies such as pain in the lower back and hip and degenerative hip joint pathology, which are associated with dominant TFL. Similarly, lateral instability and impaired movements such as lumbar spine lateral flexion or lateral tilt of the pelvis can occur due to compensatory activation of the quadratus lumborum for a weakened Gmed while exercising. Therefore, the related activation of synergistic muscles or compensatory movement should be considered when prescribing Gmed strengthening exercises.

The styloid process is normally a small, slender, pointed, downward and forward projection of the temporal bone. It is developed from the ossification of the Reichert's cartilage of the second branchial arch. In the adult, It is about 2.5cm in length and lies between the internal and external carotid arteries and lateral to the tonsillar fossa. Elongation of the styloid process , ossification of the stylohyoid or slylomandibular ligament causes recurrent nonspecific throat discomfort, foreign-body sensation, dysphagia, referred otalgia or facial pain. Symptoms are provoked by swallowing, turning head, carotid compression, and posttonsillectomy. Recently, the authors have experienced two cases of Eagle's syndrome. So we report them with review of literature.

Invasive cervical resorption is a relatively uncommon form of external root resorption. It is characterized by invasion of cervical region of the root by fibrovascular tissue derived from the periodontal ligament. This case presents an invasive cervical resorption occurring in maxillary lateral incisor, following damage in cervical cementum from avulsion and intracoronal bleaching procedure. Flap reflection, debridement and restoration with glass ionomer cement were performed in an attempt to repair the defect. But after 2 mon, more resorption extended apically. Considering root stability and recurrence potential, we decided to extract the tooth. Invasive cervical resorption in advanced stages may present great challenges for clinicians. Therefore, prevention and early detection must be stressed when dealing with patients presenting history of potential predisposing factors.

Patients with chronic lateral ankle instability often experience a range of associated injuries. The well-known comorbidities include intra-articular pathologies (osteochondral lesion, soft tissue or bony impingement, and loose body), peroneal tendon pathologies, neural injuries, and other extra-articular pathologies. Surgeons should have a high index of suspicion for these associated pathologies before operative intervention, correlate the clinical findings, and plan the treatment. Despite the restoration of ankle stability following ligament repair or reconstruction surgery, a high prevalence (13%~35%) of postoperative residual pain has been reported. This pain can negatively affect the clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. This study examined the causes of persistent pain after surgical treatments for chronic ankle instability.

Superficial peroneal nerve (SPN) injuries happen occasionally during surgical treatment of fibular fracture, lateral ankle ligament repair, etc. These injuries are caused because of the variable location of the SPN. It is the injuries are usually treated by steroid injections or anticonvulsants. However, neural symptoms may not respond to treatment and may persist and progress to a painful neuroma. Intractable pain may need surgical treatment. We examined two cases of iatrogenic postoperative SPN injury, and we treated them with transection of the SPN and the intraosseous transposition of the proximal nerve stump using the thrombin-fibrinogen complex with satisfactory outcomes. We report these two cases with a review of the relevant literature.

목적 : 반월상 연골 손상은 내,외측에서 단독으로 파열되거나 인대손상과 동반되어 자주 발생하는데 지금까지 내측 반월상연골 손상에 대한 보고는 많으나 외측 반월상 연골 단독 손상에 대한 보고는 흔하지 않다. 이에 저자들은 외측 반월상 연골 단독 손상의 치료 결과를 임상적으로 분석하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 1997년 1월부터 2000년 6월까지 경희대학교 의과대학 정형외과학 교실에서 외측 반월상 연골 손상으로 진단되어 수술적 치료를 받은 총 329례 중 최소 1년 이상 추시관찰이 가능했던 80례를 대상으로 임상적 평가를 후향적으로 시행하였다. 환자의 평균 연령은 30.2세(15세$\~$47세), 평균 추시기간은 1년 3개월(1년$\~$3년 3개월)이었다. 80례를 원판형 연골 손상군과 비 원판형 연골 손상군, 운동 선수군과 비 운동선수군 및 봉합술 시행군과 절제술 시행군으로 분류하고 Tegner 활동도와 Lysholm score를 이용하여 임상적 평가를 시행하였다. 결과 : 비 원판형 연골군에서 종파열의 빈도와 봉합술 시행의 빈도가 원판형 연골군보다 더 높았으며 운동 선수군에서 봉합술이 더 많이 시행되었다. 봉합술 시행군에서 절제술 시행군보다 통계학적으로 의미있는 우수한 임상결과를 보였다. 결론 : 외측 반월상 연골은 절제술 시행 후 불안정성을 초래할 수 있고 봉합술이 수기상 용이하지는 않으나 더 나은 술 후 성적을 얻기 위해서는 종파열뿐만 아니라 수평파열 및 복합파열에서도 부분절제술 후 가능한 한 봉합술을 시행하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다.
