Purpose: In an amputated auricle, a microvascular anastomosis is the best treatment of choice. But, the neartotally amputated auricle which is connected by very narrow tissue pedicle to the head, can survive by simple attachment without a microvascular anastomosis owing to the rich vascular network through the superficial temporal artery and posterior auricular artery. In cases of venous congestion resulting from a lack of vein anastomosis, medical leeches (Hirudo medicinalis) can solve the problem. We are reporting the case of a 6-year-old boy who had a neartotally amputated auricle with successful results by simple closure and medical leech treatment without a microvascular anastomosis. Methods: A 6-year-old male patient had an left auricular injury by an escalator accident. The left auricle was neartotally amputated from the temporal head with connection only by very narrow skin and subcutaneous pedicle (about 1 cm in width) at the helical root of upper and anterior part of auricle. Marginal bleeding from the avulsed auricle was noted and the arterial blood was supplied from a branch of upper auricular branch of the superficial temporal artery. The auricle was repaired by simple closure including cartilage and skin without any vascular anastomosis. After simple closure, the auricle showed good circulation with pink color. But on the 2nd day after the operation, there was a venous congestion with severe swelling, which resulted in a purplish colored auricle. The venous congestion disappeared after using medical leeches by the 5th day after the operation. Results: The repaired auricle showed aesthetically and functionally satisfactory result with normal development at the 9 months follow-up check after the operation. Conclusion: In cases of neartotally amputated auricles of children or crushing injury in which microsurgery is difficult, we can try simple closure with the use of medical leeches in treating a of venous congestion for a successful result.

This investigation has been carried out to examine the structure of digestive tract from Korean Leech, Erpobdella lineata, using light and electron microscope. The digestive tract is composed of mouth, pharynx, Oesophagus, six-chambered stomach, three-chambered intestine, rectum and anus. Stomach and intestine have not gastric or intestine ceca and consist of only straight tube. All digestive tracts from pharynx to rectum are covered with simple columnar epithelial cells. While the surfaces of endothelial cell of pharynx and rectum are covered with cuticular layer of about $0.3{\mu}m$ in thickness, stomach and intestine are covered with estimated $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$ and $0.5{\mu}m$ microvilli respectively. Circular folds were found only in first and second chambers of stomach, intestine and rectum, but not in pharynx and the other chambers (third to sixth) of stomach. The granules of $0.3-0.8{\mu}m$ and $0.5-1.0{\mu}m$ in diameter were observed in the cytoplasm of stomach endothelial cell. These granules were demonstrated to contain protein which showed a positive reaction to ninhydrin. It was also found that there are well-developed microvilli in the apical portion of intestine endothelial cell in which endocytosis occurs actively.

한국산 거머리(Erpobdella lineate)의 전, 후 흠반을 광학현미경과 투과전자현미경을 사용하여 조직화학적 및 미세구조적 연구를 수행한 결과 다음과 같았다. 거머리 전, 후 홍안에서 관찰된 상피세포는 불규칙한 단층원주형 상피로 되어 있으며, 상피세포의 상단에는 큐티를층이 있고 측면원형질 막은 거치상을 이루면서 여러개의 desmosome이 관찰되 었다. 큐티클층은 projection eplcuticularis, amorphorous stratum 및 fibrous stratum 등 3부분으로 구분되었다. 전, 후 출반의 상피조직 사이에서 공히 a형 분비과립과 b혐 분비과립 등이 관찰되었는데, 이 세포에서 분비된 과립들은 중성점액다당류로 확인되었다. 전 흠반의 횡단면 상피조직 밑에서 많은 근육세포들조 형성된 원형의 집단들이 다수 관찰되었는데, 이는 흠반의 흡수기능과 밀접한 관계가 있었다 비교적 통근형태의 근육세포들은 세포의 원형질막 내측에 많은 근섬유 다발을 지니고 있고 그 중앙에는 cristae가 발달된 많은 수의 사립체들이 모여 있었다. 전, 후 출반의 결합조직 내에서 5종류(A, B, C, D 및 I 등)의 분비과립들이 관찰되었다. 그 중 C, D 과립은 전, 후 흡반에서 공통으로 관찰되고, A, B 과립은 전 흠반에서, E 과립은 후 흠반에서만 각각 관찰되었는데, 이들 역시 모두 중성점액다당류로 확인되었다.

본 연구에서는 거머리의 미세한 해부구조를 3차원적으로 분석 가능한 방사광의 경 엑스선 이미징을 통하여 객관적 분석법 및 생체모사기술 구축을 위한 기초자료를 구축하고자 하였다. 우리는 방사광을 이용하여 거머리의 미세 구조영상을 얻을 수 있었고, 3차원적인 해부학적 분석이 가능함을 확인하였다. 또한 방사광을 통해 얻은 데이터는 내부구조의 미세조직까지 관찰 가능하기 때문에 성분 분석 및 생리적, 기능적 측면으로도 연구의 토대가 될 것으로 사료된다. 더 나아가 추후 거머리로부터 생체모사기술 연구 분야 등에 기여할 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

10 개체의 붕어, Carassius auratus 아가미뚜껑의 한쪽면에 1-4개체의 거머리, Limnotrachelobdella sinensis들이 기생하고 있었다. 거머리들의 평균 길이는 약 41.0 mm 정도였고, 폭은 11 mm였다. 이들의몸체는 anterior sucker, neck, trunk, posterior sucker로 구성되어 있었고 각각의 평균 길이는 2.3 mm, 7.2 mm, 23.3 mm, 8.7 mm였다. 몸통의 양 옆에는 11쌍의 lateral vesicle이 존재하였다. Anterior sucker를 SEM으로 관찰한 결과 이들은 반구모양으로 중앙에는 proboscis가 나오는 입이 존재하고 있었다. Proboscis는 식도와 바로 연결되어 있었다. 거머리에 의해서 흡혈되어진 붕어의 아가미를 광학현미경으로 관찰하였을 때 새판융합, 새엽 및 새판 상피세포 과증식, 점액세포 증가 및 울혈이 관찰되었다. 하지만 몇몇 개체들에서 나타나는 새엽 상피세포의 괴사 및 수종변성과 식세포의 침투 등은 거머리의 흡혈 활동 이후 세균 혹은 바이러스에 의한 2차 감염이 원인인 것으로 생각되어진다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze dress meanings painted by elementary school girl. As in language, the dress is the symbol and form of non-verval communicator its wearer by means of the mentalistic semantics. Also it is to analyze meanings of dress by applying the semantics of Geoffrey Leech. The followings are the findings of the analysis 1. The conceptual are the findings of the analysis 2. The social meaning is indicating the feminine image. 3. The offective meaning is indicating the aesthetic value.

The aim of thesis is to analyze dress phenomena, the semantic function and meaning of clothing were respectively on the basis of Semantics and Society by Geoffrey Leech and mentalistic semantics. To comprehend the actual clothing behaviour better, the pictures taken on the streets were used, including all kinds of the western-style and the traditional Korean costumes in Korea. The followings are the findings of the analysis. A in language, the semantic functions of the clothing are the informational, the expressive, the directive, the aesthetic, and the phatic functions. They communicate operating simultaneously. The clothing is the mentalistic semantics.

Purpose: It has been reported that the ear perfusion can maintain by a very small pedicle because the ear has good vascularized system. Replantation of an amputated ear with vascular anastmosis, has been reported before and offers the succeessful reconstructive results. But, in this paper we report a case of complete nonmicrosurgical salvage of a nearly amputated ear based on 7 mm-wide small skin pedicle with adjunctive therapies. Methods: A 49-year-old man was referred with a nearly complete detachment of left ear. The blood supply to the ear was maintained exclusively on 7 mm-wide small skin pedicle in the lobule. After we identified the fresh bleeding at the distal margin of the detached ear, we performed the primary repair. At the end of the procedure, the areas of the concha bowl and helical root appeared to be congested. So the immediate postoperative treatment for improving the tissue survival was done with Lipo-Prostaglandin E1 (Eglandin$^{(R)}$) injection, leech apply and antibiotics medications. Results: Assessment of the replanted ear on postoperative day 14 revealed a nearly viable auricle including the helical root. The ear appeared to be entirely healed, with excellent projection and fully restored normal elasticity. Conclusion: We found the complete salvage of a nearly amputated ear based on 7 mm-wide small skin pedicle with adjunctive therapies including Lipo-Prostaglandin E1 (Eglandin$^{(R)}$) injection, leech apply and antibiotics without microsurgery.
