A Scanning Electron Microscopic Study of the root surface changes was carried out in advanced periodontal disease. The results obtained were summerized as follow; 1. The root surface of cementoenamel junction of healthy root showed smooth surface, while the root surface of diseased state showed covering of deposits which regareded as a course of calcification. 2. At the mid-portion of the root, the regular cemental projection were observed on the healthy root surface and on the root surface of diseased state, cemental projection showed relatively irregular pattern. 3. On the root surface which consist of wall of periodontal pocket, there were various deposits which could be considered as subgingival calculus, bacterial plaque and epithelial attachment remnant. 4. The bottom area of the pathologic pocket, tearing altered collagen fibers were seen on the root surface. 5. At the apical portion of root surface, calcified fibers ran parallel to the root surface in healthy tooth and the fiber bundles of periodontal ligament were seen in the diseased state.

표준형 이오네스큐우심낭판막의 일차성 조직실패상의 특징의 일부를 알아보고져 승모판위치에서 각 각 행콕판막을 적출하였던 56례와 표준형 이오네스큐판막을 적출하였던 연속적 전례인 일차성 조직실 패환자 113례를 대상으로 임상 및 병리학적으로 분석 검토하였다. 양 환자군의 수술당시의 연령은 각각 31.9$\pm$9.2세와 30.4$\pm$ 12.5세였다. 행콕판막은 조직손상으로 인 한 판막폐쇄부전이 빈발한 반면 이오네스큐판막은 석회화변성의 빈도가 높고 협착병변인 경향이 우세 하였다. 판막적출기간은 행콕판막에서보다 이오네스큐판막에서 단축되 었다. 이러한 판막실패의 특징은 판막구조설계의 개선으로 기계적 요소로 인한 판막실패를 감소할 수 있을 것으로 보이나 항광물화상의 개선 없이는 조직판막의 내구성의 개선은 곤난할 것임을 시사하였다.

Extraskeletal osteogenic sarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of soft tissue, and its predilection sites are the extremity, retroperitoneum, trunk, and the head and neck area. To our knowledge 5 cases of primary involvement of the mediastinum have been reported. Because of its rarity and difficulty in exact diagnosis preoperatively, we report an extraskeletal osteogenic sarcoma in the anterior mediastinum. The patient was a thirty eight old male. He complained of cough and sputum over 2 months. The chest roentgenogram and the chest MRI[magnetic resonance image] were done and showed anterior mediastinal mass with calcification. Excision of the mass was done under the preoperative impression of thymoma, and the pathologic report was extraskeletal osteogenic sarcoma of the mediastinum.

The solitary pulmonary nodule is considered as a round or ovoid lesion with sharp, circumscribed borders, surrounded by normal appearing lung parenchyme on all sides, and found on a simple chest X-ray without any particular symptoms or signs. There is a wide spectrum of pathologic conditions in the solitary pulmonary nodules prove to be malignant tumors, either primary or metastatic. Most Benign granulomas and other benign conditions can also be seen as solitary nodules. The resection of solitary malignant nodules results in a surprisingly high 5-year survival rate. On the contrary, most benign nodules do not need to be resected and a period of prolonged observation and nonsurgical management is usually indicated. Therefore, the best approach to the controversial management of solitary pulmonary nodules depends on finding factors affecting the probability of malignancy. In this article, clinical records and chest roentgenographies of 60 patients operated on over the past 8 years at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital were reviewed. There were 15 malignant nodules and 45 benign nodules and the prevalence of malignancy was 25%. The most common pathologic entity was tuberculoma [21 cases]. The mean age was 55.5*9.6 years in the malignant group, 45.8>12.5 years in the benign group and there was a significant statistical difference between the two groups [P < 0.05]. The malignant ratio in each age group increased with advancing age. The average smoking amount was 35.6*12.9 cigarettes per day in malignant smokers, 20.9* 12.0 cigarettes per day in benign smokers, and there was a significant statistical difference between the two groups [p< 0.05]. The malignant ratio also increased with the increasing smoking amount. Comparing the appearance of the nodule on chest films, 6 calcifications and 7 cavitations were found only in benign nodules, not in malignant nodules. Therefore, calcification and cavitation can be considered as preferential findings for benignity. Previous cancer history was also a significant factor deciding the prognosis of the nodule [p< 0.05]. The average diameter on chest X-ray was 3.07*0.82 cm in malignant nodules, 3.25*1.04 cm in benign nodules and there was no significant statistical difference between the two groups [p< 0.05]. The author used Bayes theorem to develop a simple method for combining individual clinical or radiological factors of patients with solitary nodules into an overall estimate of the probability that the nodule is malignant. In conclusion, patient age, smoking amount, appearance of nodule on chest film such as calcification and cavitation, and previous cancer history were found to be strongly associated with malignancy, but size of nodule was not associated with malignancy. Since these prognostic factors have been found retrospectively, prospective controlled studies are needed to determine whether these factors have really prognostic significance.

Background: The effort to detect lung cancer in ever-earlier stages leads to the identification of an increasing number of patients without preoperative histological diagnosis. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and characteristics of benign lesions excised in the context of lung cancer surgery. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 125 surgical procedures. We compared the preoperative clinical or cyto-histological diagnosis with the surgical-pathologic diagnosis in order to identify the percentage of benign lesions excised. Furthermore, other parameters were analyzed, such as age, sex, tumor size, the presence of calcification, and the type of surgery according to subgroup. Results: Of the 125 patients included in the study, 63 (50.4%) had a preoperative histological diagnosis of malignancy, corresponding to 56 cases (44.8%) of primary lung cancer and 7 cases (5.6%) of metastases. The 62 (49.6%) remaining cases without preoperative histological diagnosis were divided among 50 (40%) solitary pulmonary nodules and 12 (9.6%) pulmonary masses. According to the postoperative pathologic examination, we identified 12 (9.6%) benign lesions excised during lung cancer surgery. There were no statistically significant differences by subgroups with respect to age or sex. We found statistically significant evidence regarding the size and wedge resection as the surgical technique of choice for this type of benign lesion. Conclusion: Our study obtained results similar to those published by other groups regarding the resection of benign lesions in lung cancer surgery. This percentage could be a quality management index of indeterminate lung lesions.

Beta tricalcium phosphate (${\beta}-TCP$) is one of allogenic bone substitute which is known to have interconnected pores that draws cell and nutrients for bone generation. It has been resulted in good outcomes for bone defect coverage or augmentation. However, several studies have also reported negative outcomes and associated complications including unexpected formation of cystic mass, continuous pain and secretion. We present the case of a 36-year-old man with a right cheek cystic mass who had a history of right zygomaticomaxillary (ZM) complex fracture and surgical correction with ${\beta}-TCP$ powder insertion to ZM bone defect. Excisional biopsy under local anesthesia revealed calcified mass in a sinus tract which was found to be connected to the ZM bone defect site in postoperative computed tomography image. Further excision under general anesthesia was performed to remove the sinus tract and fine granules which filled the original defect site. Pathologic report revealed bony spicules and calcification materials with chronic foreign body reaction. Postoperative complications and recurrence were not reported.

Myositis ossificans is a condition characterized by ossification within a muscle. It is a rare and unusual pathologic entity that has defied medical efforts to establish a definite etiology, pathogenesis, and satisfactory treatment of the disease. The condition predominantly affects the flexor muscles of the upper limbs and thighs, but rarely the head and neck area. A 53-year-old male patient visited our medical institution complaining of trismus, defined as limited mouth opening. The patient had a history of trauma to the facial bones and the computed tomography scans revealed calcification in the left temporalis muscle. The patient underwent surgical removal of the calcified mass with bilateral coronoidectomy under general anesthesia. Mouth opening at the end of post-operative 2 months was 28 mm. His oral intake of food was satisfactory. Myositis ossificans of the temporalis muscle is a very rare case. Satisfactory outcome was obtained by combining surgical excision of the affected muscle, coronoidectomy, and detachment of the insertion site of the ossified muscle.

연구배경: 인체에 이식된 동종 혹은 이종조직은 궁극적으로 석회화 변성이 일어난다. 저자들은 독자적인 항석회화 처리법을 이용해 석회화에 내구성을 가진 심혈관용 조직첨포를 개발하였다. 재료 및 방법:도축장에서 채취한 신선한 소의 심막을 Hank 용액에 담아 실험실로 이송하였다. 불필요한 부분을 절제해 낸 심낭조직을 0.65% glutaraldehyde 용액(4$^{\circ}C$)에 1주일 동안 저장한 다음 phophate-buffered saline 용액(pH 7.4)로 세척하였다. 이후 2.5% 술폰산화 폴리에틸렌옥사이드(PEO-SO3) 용액으로 실온에서 2일 동안 처리한 다음 4$^{\circ}C$ NaBH4용액으로 16시간 동안 환원시켰다. 실험은 글루타르알데하이드 용액으로만 처리한 심막첨포와 항석회화 처리된 심막첨포를 각각 대조군(GA군, n=4)과 실험군(PEO-SO3군, n=4)으로 나누어 혈관벽에 이식하여 석회화 변성 정도를 비교하였다. 실험모델은 성견의 폐동맥과 대동맥 벽의 일부를 절제한 후 심막첨포로 재건하는 방법을 이용하였고, 수술 후 평균 1개월 째에 이식된 첨포를 적출하여 조직병리 변화와 칼슘 및 인 함량을 측정하였다. 결과: 실험군이 대조군에 비해 조직 위축 변성, 칼슘(폐동맥; 1.55$\pm$0.29 vs. 6.72$\pm$0.70 mg/g, 대동맥; 7.10$\pm$1.05 vs. 13.81$\pm$2.33 mg/g) 및 인의 침착량 (폐동맥; 2.58$\pm$0.40 vs. 12.60$\pm$3.40 mg/g, 대동맥; 8.11$\pm$1.07 mg/g vs. 19.33$\pm$4.31 mg/g)이 현저하게 적었다 (P<0.01). 결론:이상의 결과에서 PEO-SO$_3$로 처리한 조직첨포는, 비록 단기관찰 결과이지만, 충분한 석회화 내성을 보이며 이 조직첨포의 장기적인 안정성과 적합성에 대해서는 계속적인 연구가 필요할 것이다.
