We report an unusual case of a sigmoid colon perforation after ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery. Distal catheters are known to cause perforation in the setting of colonoscopy. The exact pathogenesis of this complication is not clear, but it can cause serious complications. Hence, patients require prompt and aggressive management, including laparotomy with bowel wall repair, catheter removal, and antibiotic therapy.

In this study, a series of finite element analysis using LUSAS were performed in order to assess the quantitative effects of repair and retrofit of stringer in steel plate girder railway bridge with fatigue cracks. And cutoff types of end part of upper flange were considered as right-angled type and round-angled type. Also, as a method of repair and retrofit of fatigue cracks in stringer, perforation of stop-hole and installation of bracket were considered. From the analysis result, it was possible to assess the fatigue safety and fatigue life of stringer with fatigue cracks, and to estimate the stress intensity factor range in cut-off part of stringer using J-integral method. Also, according to the method of perforation of stop-hole and installation of bracket, it was possible to calculate the crack propagation life at the cut-off part of stringer.

We have experinced 20 cases of esophageal perforation from April, 1987 to August, 1993 at ourdivision of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Korea University, Gu Ro Hospital. Here we investgates the causes of disease, symptoms and sign, locations, time lag from onset, treatment of perforation and the results.The ratio between male and female patients was 12: 8, and age ranged from 4 years to 70 years old.The cause of esophageal perforation were instrumental trauma 7 cases, stab wound 4 cases, foreign body 4 cases, spontaneous perforations 3 cases, and others 1 cases. The middle and lower portions of esophagus was frequently involved portion in our cases [11 cases of 20].The common complications after perforation were mediastinitis [6 cases] and empyema [2 cases].The method of treatment were as follows, primary repair of perforation, simple drainge techniques including simple cervical drainage and closed thoracostomy, diversion and two-staged operations during several months. There was no mortality in our cases.

배경: 식도천공은 비교적 흔하지 않지만, 높은 이환율과 사망률을 나타낸다. 치료와 결과는 증상의 시간에 따라 크게 결정된다. 저자들은 식도천공 환자들을 최근의 치료방법으로 치료하여 결과를 후향적으로 조사하여 보았다 대상 및 방법: 1990년 3월부터 2005년 3월까지 식도 파열로 치료한 환자들을 후향적 분석하였다. 28명 환자들에서(남자 22명, 여자 6명: 평균나이 51세, 최소 17세에서 최고 82세)천공의 원인을 보면 이물질 9명, 외상 7명, 자연적 파열 7명, 의인성 5명이었다. 환자중 18명은 24시간 내 진단되었으며, 10명은 24시간 이후에 진단되었다. 21명($75\%$)에서 일차 봉합술을 시행하였으며, 4명에서는 식도 절제술, 3명의 환자에서는 위루술과 배농술를 시행하였다. 결과: 병원 사망률은 $18\%$이며, 그리고 의인성에서 사망률이 증가하였다(p <0.05). 천공위치, 천공 후 시간, 치료방법은 사망률에 영향을 미치지 못했다. 수술 후 누출은 4명의 환자에서 생겼으며, 보존적인 치료로 회복이 되었다. 결론: 식도 파열은 진단과 치료가 어렵기 때문에 아직도 위험한 질환이다. 대부분의 환자에서 증상의 발현시간에 관계없이 일차 재건술이 사망률을 낮출 수 있다. 정확한 진단과 조기 치료가 식도파열 환자들의 성공적인 치료에 필수적이다.

The development and repair requires the formation of new tissues comprised of various extracellular matrix components. The present study investigated the formation and distribution of the major ECM components such as type I collagen, type III collagen, fibronection, bone sialoprotein, and osteonection during development and repair. For developing observation. Sprague-Dawley rats weighing $27{\pm}1gm$ were sacrificed. For repair observation, Sprague-Dawley rats weighing $110{\pm}5gm$ were used. The pulp perforation were prepared on mesial surface of the maxillary first molar by using 1/2round bur. At 5 days after perforation, rats were sacrificed by perfusion with 3 % paroformaldehyde. The maxillary first molar region were cut, demineralized, dehydrated and embedded in paraffin. Immunostaining the ECM components was achieved by the avidin-biotin complex method. The results as follows : 1. Bright immunoreaction for fibronectin was present in the basement membrane at the inner epithelial-mesenchymal interface, especially concentrated in the blood vessel walls, cell membrane of odontoblasts, and initial predentin. 2. Type I and III collagen was observed in the newly formed pulp tissue, predentin, and its intensity increased as more of these components during repair. 3. Strong immunostaining for bone sialoprotein and osteonectin was found in dentin while no or weaker staining was observed loose connective tissue of the pulp. 4. These results suggest that develpment and repair is achieved through a series of cell differentiation and attachment by the specific ECM components.

Early diagnosis followed by primary repair is the best treatment for spontaneous esophageal perforation. However, the appropriate management of esophageal leakage after surgical repair is still controversial. Recently, the successful adaptation of vacuum-assisted closure therapy, which is well established for the treatment of chronic surface wounds, has been demonstrated for esophageal perforation or leakage. Conservative treatment methods require long-term fasting with total parenteral nutrition or enteral feeding through invasive procedures, such as percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy or a feeding jejunostomy. We report 2 cases of esophageal leakage after primary repair treated by endoscopic vacuum therapy with continuous enteral feeding using a Sengstaken-Blakemore tube.

Rupture of the esophagus is an uncommon condition that can be a formidable challenge to treat. Unless early treatment is applied, life-threatening complications, such as mediastinitis, sepsis, occurs and continue to be associated with a mortality rate of more than 20%. Definitive repair of esophageal perforation is considered the preferred treatment in the past. In the present study, conservative treatment acquired a good results by help of the development of antibiotics and nutritional supportive methods. Iatrogenic causes constituted most of the injuries, followed by external trauma, spontaneous, ingested foreign bodies, and malignancy. The incidence of perforation following ingestion of foreign bodies is very rare, so recommendations regarding treatment remain controversial. We analyzed the course of 31 patients with esophageal perforation by foreign bodies, concentrating on the diagnostic & treatment delay and methods of treatment, complications.

Boerhaave 증후군은 식도천공의 원인 중 가장 예후가 나쁜 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근 집중치료기법의 향상과 새로운 항생제의 개발로 치료성적이 향상되고 있으나 아직도 해결해야 하는 문제들이 남아 있으며 특히 천공 발생후 24시간이 경과한 환자의 치료방법에는 논란의 여지가 있다. 본 단국대학교 흉부외과학교실에서는 1995년부터 2000년까지 6년간 식도천공이 있었던 13예 중 6예의 Boerhaave 증후군을 대상으로 하였으며 모든환자에서 일차봉합술 및 총격동 배액술과 함께 보강적 피판술을 시행하였다. 사망예는 수술후 38일과 39일째 폐렴과 패혈증 및 급성 호흡부전 증후군으로 2예에서 발생하여 비교적 높은 사망률(33%)을 보였으며 2예에서 봉합부위 누출이 있었으나 고식적치료만으로 해결되었다. 아직가지 Boerhaave증후군에 대한 치료는 보고된 예가 적어서 적절한 치료방법을 제시하기에는 무리가 있지만 본원에서는 보강적 피판술을 이용한 일차봉합술 및 종격동 배액술을 이용하여 6예의 Boerhaave 증후군을 치료한 성적을 보고하며 향후 좀더 많은 보고와 연구가 있어야 될 것으로 사료된다.

In a patient with blunt abdominal trauma with small bowel injury, early diagnosis is clinically challenging due to unclear clinical symptoms and signs in the early stage of an injury. On the other hand, a delay of diagnosis of bowel disruption may lead to increased complication and mortality. The diagnostic laparoscopy is very useful for the evaluation of the small bowel injury. Laparoscopy can reduce unnecessary open surgery in a patient with blunt abdominal trauma with subtle symptoms and imprecise findings on abdominal computed tomography. Also it can prevent delay of treatment and be converted immediately to open surgery as soon as bowel damage is revealed. Furthermore, extracorporeal repair of small bowel via mini-laparotomy after a single incision diagnostic laparoscopy in a patient with traumatic small bowel perforation was a feasible and safe alternative to conventional laparoscopy. We are pleased to introduce successfully treated cases by extracorporeal repair of small bowel via mini-laparotomy after a single incision diagnostic laparoscopy in a patient with small bowel perforation after blunt trauma.
